To ensure the lessons
work as described, do these steps before beginning:
If you have not already done so, copy
the GettingStarted folder
from its installation location to your projects directory.
Then, set the GettingStarted/Fur directory
as your Maya project. For more information, see
Copying and setting the Maya project in
the Getting Started with Maya guide.
Select the Rendering menu
set. Unless otherwise noted, the directions in this chapter for
making menu selections assume you’ve already selected the Rendering menu
set
If you don’t see a Fur menu,
perform these additional steps:
In the Plug-in Manager,
locate the Fur plug-in (Fur.mll)
and turn on the loaded checkbox. Wait for the
check mark to appear in the checkbox, then close the Plug-in
Manager. You can set the Fur plug-in
to auto load so that it automatically
loads each time the Maya application is launched. The Fur menu
will appear to the right of the Paint Effects menu.
