Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Per particle rotation on one axis

I have been trying to make particles that only rotate randomly on one axis but maya's per particle rotation attribute does not seem to allow that, does anybody know a way to do this.

I want make a crater hole on a road so i want random pieces of debris lying around the crater. So i want the particles to only rotate around the y-axis so they still stay flat on the ground but look randomly placed. Also am using the particle instancer and adjusting the radius of the particle shape does not affect the instances and i also want the scale of the pieces of debris to be random.
