lingo-l shockwave3d texture problems
Hi, i have some problems with the shockwave3d exporter for Maya. The problem is that the texture coordinates (uvs) for the model i want to export are sometimes messed up and therefore the texture tiling in Director is completely different to the maya viewport *and* different to the shockwave3d preview window. The maya viewport and the preview window look correct but as soon as i import the w3d file into director it looks terrible. The uv coordinates of the models are intentionally not in the 0..1 space but beyond because the Director documentation says this is the proper way to control texture tiling. This really drives me crazy. There doesn't seem to be a logic in it. Occasionally it works but most times it doesn't. I don't know if it is Maya (the exporter) or Director that does not work properly. From my experience it is most likely Director because i experience new bugs every day ... Software is Maya 6.0 and Director MX 2004 Does anybody have experience with these kind of problems? Thanks a lot.

lingo-l Memory Inspector
Hi, I'm using Dir MX (not 2004) with MacOS 10.3.4. I went to use the Memory Inspector and could not find it. I looked up the manual and it says it should be under Window/Memory Inspector. The Help says the same but it is not there. And I cannot see it anywhere else. Does anyone have any ideas. Thanks in advance, John [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).

The way OSX manages memory... apparently Director wouldn't be able to tell what was actually going on. That feature became Windows-only with DMX. -- Troy RPSystems, Ltd. http://www.rpsystems.net [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]).
