Problems… :(

So im using windows 7 64bit, and just upgraded to Maya 2010 + 3DS Max 2010, and niether of them run!

MayaError

Any one have any Ideas?

UPDATE -
After looking around the internet, people have said:

- Update to .NET 3.5
- Disable AntiVirus
- Re-Install

None of these things seem to work, .NET 3.5 is already installed with 7, I have no antivirus and ive tried to re-install.

Arhh!

Hey,

As you may know, I do media studies at school. Its come to the time where our group has to create a short film/trailer.
We decided to create a trailer.

It will be based on the disaster genre, feature some cool VFX and editing and around 2-3-4mins long.

Yea cant wait to get going :P

Hi,

School holidays are finally here, am ready for a break! (2 weeks, not bad).
I am now facing the decision of whether or not to continue school next year to do NCEA level 3. If I don’t do it, I will be going to Lifeway college of 3d animation for a 2 year course.
Lifeway College is the highest grade 3d animation diploma in New Zealand and is relatively close to where I live. Cant wait to go!

I am very proud that they featured my Short Course result on their youtube account! LINK Thanks Lifeway!

With the holidays, I plan to do a few things, homework (Arrhh!) and stuff in Maya! Fun fun.

I have started to texture the HK-Drone I was working on a while ago, Need to get up to scratch with Maya’s Hypershade, as I currently have no idea how to create a metallic texture! Help?

A quick render of current status. Lighting set up is a quick physical sun and sky.
