Anim8or Community

ya just google "maya personal learning edition download" and you should be able to get a program that works with your book. but i would suggest learning to use anim8or first because it is so mush easier (trust me i have the maya PLE) and also if you have less then 1GB of ram maya runs veeeerrrrry ssssllllllooooowwwwwlllllyyyyy.

no problem show me some of the animations that you make! i cant wait to see them

actually i just finished sorry it took so long i was busy writing a new program i thought up where you type on the computer and it plays piano notes and writes the proper note on a staff. but here it is!(at last)

im learning to use maya and blender and anim8or but they are all so different i cant say which is best.
... i mean umm anim8or is the all time best!

if you right click on an object you will select it without de-selecting another object. also a quicker way is to use the drag-select tool(hotkey="d") to drag out a square and everything in the square will be selected hope it helps good luck!

copy and paste the script into notepad then click file>save then in the "save as type" list select "all types"then save it as "myscript.a8s"(example)then start anim8or make sure you have the preload scripts option selected and try to run the script.

you can do this without a script just make a cube set the parameters to have 10 divisions on the x and z axii then make the length and width about 100. convert to mesh then in point edit mode drag select the bottom row of points and hit delete then you have your plane
