3Delight v8.5 and 3Delight v4.5 for Maya (Win32/Win64) | 10 MB / 17.1 MB

3Delight is a fast, high quality, RenderMan®-compliant renderer designed to produce photo-realistic images in demanding production environments. The renderer was introduced to the public in the year 2000 after being used for more than a year as the sole renderer in a sister production company. It is now widely used and earning a reputation as a benchmark in rendering technology.

The lesson also details the basics of ponds, emphasizing an understanding of the fluid shader and texture controls.

1. Basics + Container Contents Display
2. Dynamic Simulation
3. Content Details
4. Grid Cache and Surface
5. Shading and Shading Quality
6. Texture
7. Lighting
8. Emitters
9. Fluids Menu

Roadkill Pro For Maya 2010 , 2009 x32Bit & 64Bit

d9b4e83d158ac7154c2cccf6557b0172.jpg


The new version of the massively popular UV tool, Roadkill, now fully integrated into Maya on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X, for both 32-bit and 64-bit Operating systems.

Roadkill Professional has been written from the ground up, specifically designed for unwrapping high polygon 3D meshes quickly and accurately.



Roadkill Pro For Maya Highlights:

Unwrapping

New unwrapping algorithms, vastly improved speed and accuracy.
Unwrap a 150000 polygon mesh in under 10 seconds.
Symmetrical meshes = symmetrical unwraps.
Unwrap selections of faces, automatically creates new UV shell.
Unwrap accurately with the minimum number of seams.
Two different unwrapping algorithms geometric and organic.

Shell Packing

New packing algorithm.
Shells packed to minimise wasted texel space.
Packing separated from unwrapping.
Scale shells relative to each other to get uniform texel ratios.
Option to upright shells. Heads, bodies, etc. come out the right way up.

Stretch Shader

See colourised stretch of unwrapped meshes in both UV and 3D windows.
Stretch shader works with all existing UV tools in Maya and 3ds Max.
Stretch colours update live on animated meshes. Find areas of UV distortion in animations.

Extras

Shell relax. Relaxes compressed shells after unwrap i.e. human face.
Scale to source. Scale UVs across multiple meshes for uniform texel ratios.
Option to pack multiple meshes onto one texture map.

Kickstandlabs Stretchmesh v1.6 for Maya (x32/x64)

506eb6383ba9063e4406483312c05298.jpg


Kickstandlabs Stretchmesh v1.6 for Maya (x32/x64) | 1.4 MB

Kickstand develops tools and techniques to revolutionize all aspects of animation production. As artists and programmers with experience in animated feature film, TV, and games, our mission is to advance the art of animation through technology.
StretchMesh is a new paradigm for surface deformation. By using a fast algorithm for relational vertex knowledge, smooth character deformations can be created quickly and with superior results over existing techniques. StretchMesh is implemented as a standard Maya deformer to work seamlessly with and enhance existing work flows.


StretchMesh (32 or 64 bit) is available for Autodesk Maya versions 2008, 2009 and 2010 on Windows, Linux, and Mac OS. Please note that the latest release of StretchMesh for Maya 8.0 or 8.5 is currently not available and that MacOS builds are for OSX 10.5 - contact us if you are interested in a build for OSX 10.4 or 10.6. Seats are defined by your computer's network card MAC address and this information will be required to generate a license. Floating licenses are also available.

Maya Character Creation: Modeling and Animation Controls


286a15f3a0bc910e8e3ce072056d4b6f.jpg


Maya Character Creation: Modeling and Animation Controls
Publisher: New Riders Press | ISBN: 0735713448 | edition 2003 | CHM | 368 pages | 10 Mb

A unique, in-depth approach to creating realistic characters in Maya. Maya Character Creation: Modeling and Animation Controls' author, Chris Maraffi, has expertise in the field and in the classroom that translates to the knowledge and solid teaching skills needed to make this book a "must-have"!

The current trend in computer graphics is greater organic realism.
