Creates a surface between multiple curves (2 or more).
Category: Maya
Maya records every step taken to create your model, This is called the Object History.
Great for creating things like pipes.
Basically divides a face into 4 triangles.
Use this to average the edge flow between edge loops, you need to try it to see what it does really.
Used to improve the coverage of a smooth surface relative to its cage.
When we model in Maya we typically add more detail to make it look smoother (Using ‘Mesh’ > ‘Smooth’). But sometimes you may want to add detail and keep your models light (and not dramatically increasing the poly count)
NURBS objects have smooth edges and faces, you can adjust the smoothness quickly using the number keys, Poly objects adds smoothness by adding detail, however, the object can still be smoothed in the same way that the NURBS objects can use the number keys.
When we model in Maya we may want organic and smooth looking models.
