Message 2 of 5. The polygon topology on the model may not be supported by Mudbox. For more information, see Prepare a model for sculpting.

Check that the model does not contain any non-manifold topology that would cause problems for Mudbox by loading it into the originating modeling application. Some 3D modeling applications have features for checking and fixing non-manifold conditions and degenerate edges.

Attempt to import and save the same OBJ file into another 3D application such as Maya and see if the problem is still present when importing the second version of the OBJ file.

If the problem still persists, it may indicate that the original OBJ file is corrupt. Shading materials on a model exported as an OBJ format file from another 3D modeling application do not appear on the model when imported to Mudbox. Shading materials from other 3D applications do not get transferred with an OBJ file. The OBJ file format is a simple data format that represents 3D geometry alone: the position of each vertex, the UV texture coordinate associated with a vertex, the normal at each vertex, and the faces that get combined to make a model.

The CgFX shading specification can be used as a common shading material format between 3D applications if they support it and Mudbox. Mudbox file. The directory location that Mudbox is expecting to source the files for the texture maps may have changed or the files may be missing or have had their file names changed. Mudbox will load a. Check the file locations, names, and so on and correct as required. Imported texture map does not appear correct on the model.

It appears jumbled, distorted, or mismatched in relation to the object. If these have not been taken into consideration and laid out prior to painting or importing a map, or the map was created for a model with a different UV layout, it is unlikely the image map will appear correct when applied to the model.

You have the other Autodesk product installed, but the Send to 3ds Max , Send to Maya , or Send to Softimage options are not available in the File menu. You must have the same version of both Autodesk products for example, Mudbox along with Maya for the Send to options to be available. Mudbox cannot find Maya. Please set the location of Maya in the 'Path' section of the Preferences window, then try again.

The message indicates that the receiving application cannot be found for launching at the default directory location as expected. Confirm that the Maya path is set correctly in the Paths preferences. Problems were encountered, see the Log file. Mudbox has encountered some problem with the file being imported. For example, If a model is imported containing a UV set that crosses a UV tile boundary, it will result in poor interactive performance or worse affect the stability of the application.

An error message will appear in the Log file indicating this situation when it occurs. For best results remove or edit the UV set to correct the situation and import the mesh again. Imported OBJ file from another 3D application cannot be sculpted or subdivided. The polygon topology on the model may not be supported by Mudbox. For more information, see Prepare a model for sculpting. Check that the model does not contain any non-manifold topology that would cause problems for Mudbox by loading it into the originating modeling application.

Some 3D modeling applications have features for checking and fixing non-manifold conditions and degenerate edges. Unknown error has occurred. Attempt to import and save the same OBJ file into another 3D application such as Maya and see if the problem is still present when importing the second version of the OBJ file.
