how to use multiple characters ready for animation into a scene
Basically I am new to maya (duh) and i have created 2 individual characters which are rigged with controls and ready for animation in 2 separate projects, the thing is that i want to then create my scene (Im not making things too hard for myself, it is a square room with a door and a window) in yet another project and then im hoping to animate them both in the scene.
I believe im doing this wrong, the more im looking into it the more im thinking that this is just a dumb way to work. If anyone could enlighten me how im meant to be doing this please step up as Im stumped. :headbang:
Perhaps i should be using layers? Oh and the other thing is is where i have created the two characters from image planes straight into maya they are the same size, whereas i want one of them to be smaller - is there anyway to vary that?
Thanks in anticipation of a useful answer,
Rob
