Re: Animation judging now for ALL FIRST TEAMS

We can only see the animation entries from our Regional when we vote.

I thought Autodesk was going to let us see all animations after March 2.

Does anyone know how to see them?

Voting is online only, and ends on Wednesday, March 2.

As far as I know the only way for the team to view all the videos is to be in one room when someone with an account logs on. Or you can give...

Help - WMV to MOV converter?

A mentor on another team said her students saved their edited video in Windows Media (.WMV) format. They found a free .WMV to .MOV converter but it leaves a watermark on the video.

Any suggestions...

Re: Submission Registration Open!!

Sorry if this is obvious, but did you try "0192" instead of "192"? Maybe they need 4 digits for all teams.

Re: Bimba order cutoff date

2 question for those who ordered and received Bimba cylinders this season:

1. How long did it takes for them to arrive after your order was placed? We're about 900 miles from Bimba and didn't pay...

Re: Air Cylinder Questons

The purpose of this rule is so we don't gang multiple solenoid valves together and fire them at the same time to increase the flow to a single cylinder.

My favorite tutorial on "How to make an animated movie":

Re: Students.autodesk.com not working for me?

Have you tried from a different computer on a different network? Is it possible some schools or businesses have security software that is interfering with access?

Well, at least they changed the message when you go to the Awards tab of http://students.autodesk.com/?nd=first_home

Re: 2011 Animation Contest

hmm... the site (http://students.autodesk.com) has been down for a couple hours. I suppose that's a good sign. Maybe it means Autodesk is in the process of updating the site with the 2011 rules.

Re: 2011 Animation Contest

I think you'll find this is a great place to post questions about 3ds Max & Maya. You'll probably get answers within an hour or two. Just try to be as specific as possible in your thread title.

converting 3ds Max meshes to solids?

I need to convert a 3ds Max file (mesh/surface model) to a solid model, to send it to a 3D printer.

I know Max can export an .STL file, but it's hollow, so the 3D printer can't use it.
