From the help desk:

Maya PLE is bunndled on the 3rd CD and you may need to install it seperatly. Also, you need to have a mouse with three buttons on it (a wheel works) in order to move around correctly in Maya PLE. I could have used this information a while ago but now I'm just gonna hold out for the fat man to get me one...christmas is only 8 days away, if you don't have one, add it to your list and unsend that virus you sent to your friend because he took your girl. -OMGTTFS

Diuscussion

Wormbo: I wouldn't call a page "Introduction", this could be an introduction to anything. How about renaming it to "Introduction to Maya" ?

Mychaeel: What about Maya/Introduction (since there's already Maya and Maya/Discuss)?

AlphaOne: Does it mean that I cannot make models for UT2k3 on win ME/95????

Tarquin: AFAIK, yup, you can't make Static meshes under Win9x.

Mychaeel: Okay. "Maya/Introduction" is it then for this page?

Bjorn: You can of course make models under Win9x with other 3D modelling programs like MilkShape and 3D Studio Max.
