In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

MAYA 4 to MAYA 3

Unless you've used any Maya 4 specific nodes, MOST of the time you can save the file as Maya Ascii and then hand-edit the lines at the top that specify what version it requires.

If you have used features dependent on having version 4, you may have trouble reading the file.
