Using Incremental Save Feature
One of the most useful features of Maya is one of the most hidden features. We will show you how to use the incremental save feature to keep multiple copies of your work. This video will show you how to turn on Maya's incremental save feature to keep multiple copies of your work and to avoid saving over a working copy of your file. Often times when working, it is a good idea to keep multiple copies of your work to revert to if an error occurs in your file. Maya's incremental save feature is great for this purpose but is hidden and out of the way. Once turned on, you will be able to save time and effort when saving every step of your project. When saving your work for a project, it is a good practice to have multiple copies of your work so you can go back to any step and repair or modify your file. When using the incremental saves feature, be sure to set a reasonable limit on the number of copies to keep. Otherwise, you might run into the possibility of running out of disk space.
