Hi. Doing a maya project for universtiy and he's said we can only submit a single binary file.

How do i get my images that i use for textures to be included in the binary file?

Freeze transformation - that's what i was looking for!

i think i'm gonna convert them to polygons so they're all the same type. cheers chirone!

Already in a group. Any other suggestions?

HI. I;ve created an object with lots of Polygons and Beveled edges (surfaces) and now i want to make it one object.

Hi. I'm modelling a house in maya. suddenly i notce that my file size went from about 300 KB to 4.3Mb.

I've narrowed it down to a swirl shape i made.

The shape was made by making one single...

yep i know about snapping. The referenec lines are for the bay window i'm making for the house above. it's just going to be one trapezium extruded down the height of the house.

and i need loads...

the reason i was using divisions is because it guarantees a straight line. whereas if i make a new object i have to draw it myself and have to manually check the numbers on every corner.

you got it right, that;s wht i want. but can i add a nurbs spline to a polygon?
