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.

Black Viewport

I've searched around on the internet and can't seem to find anyone with this problem.

I just downloaded Maya 2014 onto my laptop, and when I boot it up, all of the view ports are black.

I have tried spawning new cameras, changing view settings around, restarting my computer, and downloading maya 2015.


I would really appreciate if someone could help, thank you.

I figured it out! And I feel really dumb now! All I had to do was update my drivers!
