[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

My pleasure 😊 Thank you for watching. And yes, the background is Horizon Zero Dawn! Here is your medal 🎖️ 💖

[@HoaTruong-km9rk]

thank you so much for these tutorial

[@drumgostudio8286]

I love your videos and been a huge fan since I could remember! I’m trying to learn Maya to be an animator. I’m gonna take classes soon on the program but I wanted to get ahead. Any tutorials you recommend that will talk about almost everything I need to know?

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Thank you for watching and being a fan! Maya is a powerful software to learn, the question is, are you focusing on animation? I would visit www.youtube.com/@SirWade Or are you looking for the fundamentals, learning modeling/texture/render basics, so on. This is a fun start: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qXXTnpirprVpjbs I hope that helps!

[@drumgostudio8286]

@@AcademicPhoenixPlus I was looking for both actually! The whole nine yards, literally everything Maya has to offer!

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Glad you liked it! I like the idea of a spider punk shader but he's very complicated! I'll have to research it. :)

[@paolagarzon5917]

the background in the final part of the video is from horizon zero forbidden west!!. Thank u for the tutorial, it´s very useful as always!

[@kenzietownsend6644]

Arnold put out a supplement about aiToon. Its not available for GPU rendering only CPU. Something about the Contour layer and how GPU's aren't exact in their renders like CPU's. TL;DR. GPU is not available for aiToon shaders. Looks cool and Blender has some similar materials.

You are very welcome! Thank you for watching 😊😊

[@vinodefx001]

little confusing need to practice thanks

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

It can be confusing since there are so many parts. You can totally do it!🎉

[@SiD19884]

does the polygon outline need rigging to be animated as well?

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Good question. The 'outline' is a texture, so therefore it will follow the model no matter what. So no need to rig it, just rig the character and the outline will follow the animation. I hope that helps!

[@bilosofie]

nice to See you by the way ..

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

😊 Thank you!

[@yaslongattiart]

Is it not possible to render aitoon by the GPU? In all the computers I tried, this happens: // Error: ERROR | [gpu] NVIDIA driver 536.99 is too old, version 537.13 or higher required (GPU-rendering) I also tried on the computers of my college that are superior and there were similar errors. I can only render my animation with aitoon by CPU

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

I'm not sure... I've never tried it!

[@lilbrimu]

How do you seperate the ai ramp colors if your character is only using one texture map?

[@lilbrimu]

Nevermind , I just needed to make another shader using the same texture map with a different color ramp...

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Nice job troubleshooting!

[@Vicky-v1k9p]

Next video should be about nhair please

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Thank you for the suggestion. The next video is xGen. nHair is considered outated. I only use it for rigging purposes. Is that what you are looking for?

[@riostarlin798]

Yes im

[@Vicky-v1k9p]

@@AcademicPhoenixPlus no I don't know what is it I just want to move my 3d character hair by simulation as we can do by n cloth so I think nhair can do it

[@CGFOKUS]

Can you make a tutorial for xgen…🫠🫠

[@AcademicPhoenixPlus]

Yes, that's next. To get started, check out my xGen playlist! kzbin.info/aero/PLbxLlP-Vyt-8SMO7iNKQlk8Ii9RcGtKnG
