Monday, I caught the end of the Autodesk event and got to see a little bit about the new Maya 2009! The first thing I saw was the new particle system.

Several years ago, I had a Maya Medical Visualization tutorial CD, but I “loaned” it to someone, and trying to search for it has been fruitless.  It was for Maya 6.5, or 7 and was back when Alias ran the show!!!

Wasn’t able to make SIGGRAPH this year.  Did you see such a product around the AutoDesk booth???  It was very good, and I loaned it to several students here at New Mexico State to look at.  So, where it is ????  But I’m really looking for a Maya2009 update.

So If I want to experiment with stereoscopic 3D in maya which 3D glasses do I use? the old traditional red/green or the grey/polarised?...(As i thought the grey polarised are just for viewing the projected end result?)

also, how do I check if the stereoscopic 3D is working, without projecting??
