can't asign shader to objekt

Complex UV Layout in Maya

Over the last couple of years UV layout in Maya has changed for the better. In this course we're going to be taking a look at some of those changes as we UV map an entire character

i have uvmaped an object and now there is imposible for me to
change shader.
before i uvmaped it, i deleted the uv's. can that be the reason? But i have uv's now though

i gets this messege:

defaultNavigation -source lambert10 -destination |polySurface72|polySurfaceShape135.instObjGroups[0] -connectToExisting;
// Error: Error while parsing arguments. //
// Result: Dropped lambert10 onto polySurface72 //

Have you tried reassigning the default shader to the object? I know in at least one case my shader network got messed up.

Deleting UV's before mapping is never really a good idea, whatever the case! :-)

Not sure what the error means. If your material is just a plain Lambert, then something is probably wrong with your object. If it's a more complex shader (ie with bump maps, ramps, &c attached), then I'll wager it's your shader...

Good luck!

Carry on...
