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.

Export to .dwg

Hey all, I've been modeling a theater in maya for an architect - mostly for beauty shots, but now he wants a .dwg file from a top down view. This is basically autocad stuff right? Is there any way to export a .dwg file or .pdf from Maya? With intersecting geometry this seems like a nightmare.

Thanks!

Not sure if this is what you are looking for:
go to Window-->Settings/Preferences-->Plug-in Manager and enable dwgTranslator.mll

You can now select what you would like o export, and under export options, you have also DWG file extencion.

Hope this helps.
