In MAYA 3.0 you cannot paint PFX3D tools on SUBDIVISION SURFACE .

But you can map textures on the attributs of shaders assigned to a subdiv shape.

You can Paint on polygone shape. So you try that :

1. Select subdiv shape
2. Assign it a shader
3. SubdivSurface->Tesselate (tesselation Method adaptative, division per face 1)
4. Move in the space this polygonale copy
5. Select this copy and do Edit->Delete by type ->history
6. Don't use a map of projection in this case
7. Paint in 3d on this object : Lightning/Shading ->Paint texture tools :

Because you have the same shader for poly and subdiv, the painting shader is updated on

the subdiv surf.
