Simply Maya User Community - View Single Post - What do you guys think about... Bryce?

As you say, booleans on Maya, well, kinda suck and do not work as advertised in the User's Manual. I, like many novices, was left completely confused when using Booleans for the first time, since they just worked elsewhere...

We pretend we use the 'Booleans Function' just to screw around with newbies and then they get all flustered and confused and almost give up (some do)...

A mean trick really. The Booleans button just randomly takes some other action and try using it on whatever face you may have picked. Thats why it works sometimes but mostly you get a error message.... :attn:
