3 Ways to Render Wireframes in Maya

[@crimzouz5175]

thank you bro it really made my day. I spent 3 days looking for this tuto, I can finally go back to my family !

Glad you found it helpful

If only Arnold had the forethought to add a tickbox for smooth preview wireframe rendering. I'm on 2019 (I know, I need to update) and I've spent most of today trying to find a good approach. I can't believe I had to use a workaround like Playblast. But I'm so grateful you had this guide to do it.

Thank you so much for this video. I love when tutorial authors cut to the chase and give you just what you need. I feel like I learn *more* that way. Cheers.

[@JoshAntonio]

Glad you like the no bs approach :D

Could I ask for a perspective grid tutorial? I need to create a bunch of white grids on a transparent background, to be used in Photoshop as an overlay for digital painting. Thank you.

[@aaronh560]

I cannot get the wireframe to show up on the playblast for the 2nd option

[@ericvallsmartinezb-ba3dv1t27]

same here, could you solve it?

[@ericvallsmartinezb-ba3dv1t27]

I could solve it. it was kinda bugged so I just desactivate the wireframe on shaded and turn it back on and made the playblast and it work

[@aaronh560]

I actually didnt. I tried flicking thing off and on but used another method but I'll try your fix next time!! Thanks for posting it :)

[@KPATOCps3]

Lit bro

[@anonymoussources9556]

Thanks dude 😎

[@JoshAntonio]

No problem 👌

[@chrisrams3D]

Thanks!!!

[@irvinekamal]

Thanks man

[@darkikari82]

good afternoon excellent video but I am left with a question, in the wireframe mode of the second method, how did you do so that the wireframe is only visible at the front and nothing in the background?

[@JoshAntonio]

If you use Wireframe on Shaded and not just the Wireframe mode, that should resolve your issue.

[@xy-box]

Do you have method for save wireframe to 2D vector graphics formats (DXF,SVG) ?

[@morpheusdreamer]

If you do a batch render with the vector renderer you can output as .ai .eps .svg etc. Only issue is the vector render has limited options.

[@baepinkobsession]

I did the playblast part and it gives me literally hundreds of copies lol

[@JoshAntonio]

It’s making tons of images? Try setting the range for just one frame if that’s all you need
