Doors and windows in maya 8

dinodiegus · January 15th, 2007

Hi guys i was wondering is there a plug-in or add-on in maya 8 for Doors and windows.

im doing a dining room project and i need to create doors and windows at the right scale and shape.

I know 3dsmax9 has this in their modifier stack, does maya have this?

thanks.

just use the decimal scale and just punch them in the attribute editor its how I build everything to scale. I model them outright. very easy a few poly's and some Boolean subtractions voilà.

do you have a screen shot of what your working on?
Might be easier to explain.

thats exactly what i want to avoid, using booleans givesme bad results and i prefer using a plugin or mel script to do this.

3dsmax 9 has its own architectural window and door creator, i think maya should too.
