Fix for Maya 2012 Error: setParent: Object 'vrMayaVectorFillStyleLayout' not found.

Solving // Error: setParent: Object 'vrMayaVectorFillStyleLayout' not found.

I was preparing to render wireframe for my modeling when suddenly a problem occurred, which is unable to batch render using maya vector. Then my classmate suggested to reset the maya preference and it didn't work. Worst part is after reset I can't even render at all with maya vector.

So I went to my lecturer and he taught me a way to render the wireframe without using maya.

//
Make sure you harden edge your model and set all the settings you want include size, frame number and camera. After that, save it.

Right click your scene file and you can see (open) , (open with...) , (render), ...
just click the (Render) and a panel will pop out and all your model wireframe will render and saved in the project folder you set.

My very first flash project

The Bugs - Live To Party ( Jonas Brothers )


Well I was phobia about flash at first, because I remember Flash was too hard and too stressed for me when I first try it 3 years ago. Till this sem I have to attend to Multimedia class, which was learning Flash from this class. Unexpectedly, it seems easier than I remember it. I guess it is due to me more understand and getting used to Adobe software ever since I studied at Dasein.

I was excited when lecturer brief us the final project. I have chosen to do a Flash MV and I can't believe I made it!!! Gosh I'm so excited! XDD I enjoyed this project so much and eventually I finished 4 weeks before deadline. Therefore I have more time to solve the delay and lag problem due to too much filters and blending mode and also export from swf file into png file and put into video. =D

I was very nervous during presenting this video. Gladly, I got good comments from the lecturer. I am so happy and satisfied with this project. \(^~^)/ Hope people who watch it will like it and enjoy as much as I do.
