With 16 gig of ram, why is Maya running slow? Back to Subscription, Installation and Licensing Category. Back to Topic Listing Previous Next. Filter by Lables. Message 1 of I am running Maya on mac OS Why am I running slow? It slowed down considerably after I set the faces to smooth. Message 2 of We could use more info about your scene.

How many polygons are you working with before and after the "smooth"? Can you zip and upload it? Message 3 of MichielDuvekot3 Define "slow". How much slower. It is expected that Maya will not give you the same playback rate. If for example I smoothed an object with , faces to , the frame rate drops from 25fps to Message 4 of Please help it is really frustrating.

Greg Davis. More about the problem?.. Well the different scenes were running slow before I merged them and now that I have put all the parts together, I can barely move one vert. And when i do try anything, Maya Freezes. Thats really it. Its a low poly, Sub-D model. Thats all i can really say :shrug:. It is real sub-d on sub-d can you hide the hi poly and just view the low poly though?

There arent that many parts to it, i modeled the body, head, and ear seperatly. Thank You, i will try those things, and thank you for the quick lesson on sub-d im still somewhat new to using maya , but for now, its sleepy time. Greg Davis :wavey:. Ok, so i didnt go to sleep…i went back to the scenes before they were together and i got the head fixed. I have been trying to create and animate aircraft in Maya Every time I select it or move it or try and import a second or do anything at all the program freezes for at least 5 minutes.

Any help on why Maya is running so slow with such simple objects is much appreciated. On my laptop when Maya was freezing, I was underclocked at.

On my desktop Maya is maxing out cpu usage. I have 2 machines this is happening on. Both are less than 2 months old and have no performance issues. The first is my laptop.
