Hey guys! In this Maya modeling tutorial, we will talk about various tips and tricks and the features that can speed up our modeling workflow. Hope you enjoyed the video. Until next time, Mario
One thing to note about your first tip (- and + to change manipulator size) is that it also changes your accuracy while manually transforming objects. The bigger the manipulator, the finer control you will get with your mouse. If you are trying to move, rotate or scale something and find that the controls are too twitchy or that they are skipping some increments, try pressing "+" a couple of times. In the later case, also check that you don't have "step snap" enabled in tool settings, heh.
A lot of these are so underrated and I wish more people knew about this kinda stuff. Another good one I see people not utilizing is drag select instead of marque - hold tab to drag over face, verts, edges and it will only be a camera based selection on things your cursor hovers over.
This is the best to the point tips and tricks video ever. Keep it up. Id love to see some tips on working with sub-d modelling and reducing unnecessary edges for optimisation purposes.
I've just recently discovered your videos and I have a bit of a request. This is something I can't find a video on anywhere but it would be awesome if you would consider doing a video on how to create hotkeys in maya. And I don't mean just the standard way. I mean how to hotkey anything. For instance at 5:25 this option for Toggling Selection Highlighting, can't find it in the hotkey editor at all. There are a lot of weird items in maya that are a pain if not impossible to create hotkeys for (topological symmetry comes to mind). Keep up the great work!
So nice viewport settings O.O i have hotkeys for 4 types for edge loop. Multi Cut, insert looptool, polyConnectComponents and connect from modeling toolkit) They r all useful insert loop tool use for equal loops. poly connect connecting selected vertexes and selected edges middle points. connect from modeling tools best way for multi edge connect. And i have hotkeys for converting vertex-edges-polygons(just easiest way select pole polygons, select 1 mid vertex, convert to poly). And i have hotkeys for loop and ring select coz u can select start and end loop ing edges. Hold tab give u a marker select mode, this useful too.(but i have hotkey for switch without holding). Maybe it will be useful for you

omg....watching it one more time (in two years, i think) and very happy of it usefulness!!! Thank you very much!!!
The things like controlling subdivision level and bending controls are just mindblowing! Thank you so much :D
4:25 thank you, it will save me hundreds of hours.
Thanks for all the tips!
As a new student of 3d modelling. This is superb and strongfully helpful! If only I had enough money to join your course xD
That extrude trick around 11:50 is amazing!
One of the most informative channels I've ever found, your voice, these tips, I love it!
You are too kind, thank you!
This video is insanely useful! Thank you so much for this type of videos.
That normal scaling is pretty neat. Always thought the pie menu was really fast but then your trick is just so conveniant
This is the best to the point tips and tricks video ever. Keep it up. Id love to see some tips on working with sub-d modelling and reducing unnecessary edges for optimisation purposes.
Hey thanks... yeah in previous videos there is already a series on topology.
Thank You Mario!
Valuable info. Thank you so much Elementza🙏🏻
REALLY AWESOME MUCH HELPFUL AND WONDERFUL TRICKS TIPS HI SIR MYSELF RONY I'M AN VFX CG STUDENT FROM ARENA ANIMATION KOLKATA INDIA
Dude your content is amazing

Man, huge thanks!! I took 10 notes from your video!!!
Mario! you are briliant! you need to keep videos coming more and more like Arimus 3D but in Maya! so helpfull!
Wow! A lot of great tricks that are gonna speed up my workflow. Thank you!
Thanks a lot for sharing
Superb content on your channel 👍
very helpful thank you
Very helpful
Thanks dude!! Nice tip!
The tutorial that I needed, thank you!
Thank you for showing these tricks :) it is so hard to find good free content :)
Very very very useful video!Thanks!
thank you sir
!! ALT+Z I thought this kind of feature exists in parallel universes only ))) Thanks!
The Insert Edge Loop tool (around 9:00) is brilliant
how to call auto complete?
Yep, 20 year long Maya user and I didn't know that. :O
🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷🌷
In Max it's simply called "Connect", very basic tool which is hard to miss :D
@@wizard_still By pressing shift ctrl rmb while the tool is active.
it's just amazing, simply amazing.
JOO thats noice, i learned a lot thx!

Thank you for video! Very usefull for me, because i'm just begining to figure out in Maya!:)
Half of these I knew about already, but the other half I was holding my head screaming "FUCKING MAGIC MANG".
Fantastic
Thanks
Thanks! This is super usefull
Realy cool handy features! Thx a bunch!
thank you
some good ones! nicely done.
Gracias Mario!
NIce tips! Love it!
Looking for the next one
Amazing! Thank you so much ❤️👌
9:32 important
Can you do something that shows how to make a screw or something with threads? You seem to really know maya very well. i love your teaching style.
Thank you!
Yes I did already something similar
ua-cam.com/video/Iupd4MMAKKo/v-deo.html
its wonderful.
Can you try blender and suggest to us what it needs? this is a question for the behalf of software improvement :)
hi, can u show your color settiings? I want as you have ) thanks )
13:34 does this work in Maya 2020. I wasn't able to do it. It moved my object everywhere rather than scaling it.
do you use a pen display or pen graphic tablet when modeling ?
02:10
Do you know of a way to get this rate control for options in Attribute Editor?
🌷🌷🌷🌷
Just pressing "H" allows for hiding and showing the objects - even faster than using ctrl or shift h
Thank you for sharing this to us, I learned a lot! :)
mind=blown
Really nice video!
Thanks as always!
👍
13:55 default is not T, at least not in maya 2022 (idk what it is)
your maya looks different from most other configs that i see. what did you do to it?
He changed the UI colors.
Hi nice tips!
Another thing, could you upload your custom ui? with that colors and eveything, it looks so stylish
There is already a tutorial on this called UI Customization. It's a part of Intro to Maya series.
very useful video. I can't find auto complete option.
12:00
Do you ever think you'll do a series for Blender? 👀
Hard to say, but since I'm not using Blender, its very unlikely at this moment.
go to wallacea
I already know like 70% of what was in this video, still I'm just a noob.
wallah !
