I just started my company’s new blog and one of the first topics was a fix for the Maya 2009 Collada Export on a Mac. Read about how to do it and get it going here:

I’ve got the Collada plug-in for Maya 8.5 but when I try to open the export options box I get the error ‘object’s name is not unique’. It also can’t find the procedure collada translator opts. Any ideas?

I cannot for the life of me get this bloody thing to work. I’m using mr.Doob’s super-excellent pv3d previewer to check my .dae exports and it barfs with:

Error #2044: Unhandled ioError:. text=Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: file:///Users/John/Desktop/pv3d_previewer_1.1 Folder/cylinder.dae

Correction – I pinpointed the problem to a different version of standalone Flash player. It has nothing to do with CPU architecture, and in fact C2D runs faster as usual.

Flash Player 9r115.exe, which is the latest one that I’ve seen, runs my scene really slow, but an older version of Flash Player 9r16 runs it really fast… Pretty weird, especially as I remember reading an adobe developer saying how there’s nothing they can do to improve PV3D performance due to software rendering, but they obviously killed the performance somewhere along the line.
