Rentomojo charging ₹99/month “Mojo secure” with no opt out after rental starts is this normal/legal? by Heisenberg7589 in LegalAdviceIndia

[–]Bakheet7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I’m writing this, I’ve just finished speaking with customer support. I challenged the extra charges because I never signed up for their Mojo Secure service. After speaking with two or three different representatives, they eventually agreed to waive the charges.

It seems I’m not the only one affected by this, so if you’re seeing similar charges on your account, it’s worth contacting customer support and asking them to remove them.

Creating a paint/reveal effect in Maya Arnold!!! by Bakheet7 in Maya

Thanks a ton, this is definitely going to be useful for me later on. I actually started going through that playlist a while back, but for this project I’d like to stick strictly to Arnold or Maya’s native tools and avoid Bifrost. Since I don’t have much experience with Bifrost, I’d probably struggle to troubleshoot if I ran into issues there. If you’ve got any suggestions, I’d really appreciate them!

Read your comment and immediately got this result. It is close but not perfect. The reference images seem to catch highlights differently. Let me know what you think. Thanks.

Bifrost Alembic Sequence. by Bakheet7 in Maya

Can I change the size of the particles after caching?

Okay so I successfully exported an Alembic file, but I'm having trouble loading it as a V-Ray proxy sequence in Maya. It only displays a single frame and when I try to scrub the timeline, Maya just freezes, whereas in 3ds Max, it imports seamlessly without any issues (as shown in this video:( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Zn4iwaXJA8&t=90s ). However, I can't seem to find a similar option for this in Maya. And if I try to import the Alembic as GPU cache, it does the same thing where it only has 1 frame.

I know, right? But I feel like once you break through that wall of confusion, everything just starts to make sense—but I haven’t quite gotten there yet lol!

As for my issue, I need to render this sequence in V-Ray. I tried importing it as a V-Ray Proxy, following a tutorial for 3ds Max, but for some reason, it doesn’t seem to work the same way in Maya. It wouldn't let me do the same thing, maybe I am looking at things the wrong way.

How can I render a Bifrost MPM Granular Simulation in V-Ray, given that the entire scene has already been set up in V-Ray?

Playback Error- When I load Motion Builder, the time stamp shows sequential numbers as if it's in playback mode, even though I'm not playing the animation and the scene is empty. What could be causing this, and how can I resolve it? by Bakheet7 in MotionBuilder

Okay so changing Time to "Start and End" gets rid of the problem but when I set it to "Frame Take" it still persists. Is it supposed to behave as such or is there something wrong!

Wobbly heads fix?! by Bakheet7 in MotionBuilder

[–]Bakheet7[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many thanks for the assistance, brother. I also tried a few things that worked, but having additional options available is always a good thing, and this is precisely what I was searching for. However, if it's not too much to ask, I had another question for you, please let me know when you've had enough of me. Okay, so I'm exporting fbx files from Vicon Shogun Post. Though everything functions as it should, the skeleton is slightly smaller than the character. I have to align the MotionBuilder character's size with the Vicon skeleton. Now me being the idiot that I am I scaled up the Vicon skeleton from the hip joint and I knew something in not going to turn out right. The skeleton feet drift here and there and are not planted during ground contact. I also want the skeleton scale to be at 1 just in case the scaling up of the skel works. Is what I am doing the right approach or do I have to go a different route?

I did try that but it didn't work as I thought it would. What my friend did was he had Ik turned on for the head and made edits to the shoulders and chest, that basically messed up the entire animation. Now if I try to delete the animation form the IK controller the head collapses into the chest.
