When I export a mesh from Maya into Mudbox I can’t sculpt on it at all. No tools work on it except the Grab tool. I’m using both a tablet and a mouse and neither one works. I generally use the send to Mudbox command in Maya, but I also tried exporting just as a .fbx file and that does not work either. Something else strange about it, when I got back from a week off is when this all of a sudden started happening. The models that I created before this started happening sculpt just fine whereas anything new is what will not sculpt. It will sculpt on the model if the brush is huge but before it didn’t require a huge brush. Another hint was in the maya export logs showed an error on the constraints saying that the constraints needed to be activated or to bake the animation. I am currently not doing any sort of animation, just modeling. I am running maya and mudbox 2012 on a Mac Book Pro running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 with 8gb of RAM and an intel core 2 duo with a 500gb toshiba harddrive. I am using a Wacom Bamboo Fun tablet with the most current drivers installed.

maybe your objects are to small or to big… double check with the mudbox man…
and also try to delete the mudbox settings folder, this will reset everything…

I did not see a settings folder when I navigated to /Applications/Autodesk/Mudbox.app/Contents/MacOS. The only thing I could find was a Trays folder that contained a .txt file that was labeled SculptTools.txt. Is this the setting I need to delete or the whole Trays folder or am I missing a settings folder somewhere? Any other ideas? Thanks for any help! I attached some log messages, but not sure if these are relevant to the issue. Maybe you could shed some light on these files.

Hello OGLU,
I found I can paint on the model. I can sculpt on the model if it is scaled larger or the brush is very large. I would just like to know why this changed for me. We reinstalled both Maya and Mudbox with no change.
I have attached an example of both files if you wouldn’t mind looking at them.
thanks for any assistance
