Making Proxy Rig Script (Python)

Hi,

Have you ever tried to make a proxy rig to make your rig faster for animation playblast? And end up select very single edgeloop for each joints, detach, then extract mesh, then repeat. Yes, I was in this situation. Each time it costs me up to 1 hour or more to finish.

Hope this script will save you (and me) some time for this task:

Maya Script: Select all object with keyframes

Click on the top node of your rig, then hit that tool, and it selects all controllers (or whatever) that have keyframes on them- below this top node.

If nothing is selected. It will select all the objects with keyframes.

>> So it's a quick "select all" if you don't have a body picker and that way it let's you move all the keyframes in your scene.

Thank you Jean-Denis Haas for the script idea.

Donate if you find it useful. 

Cheers,

Truong

Maya Script: Fix flipping spine/ spline

Hi,

If you see the spine/ spline controls flip while animating (usually happen when rotate > 180 degree). I'm sorry about that. 

You can use this script to fix it. 

Load the script into Python tab in Script Editor. Ctrl + A, then Ctrl + Enter to run it. 

Or fix it manually:

The script only works with Advanced Skeleton rigs.

Motion Curve Tool - Maya Script (Python)

Hi,

This is an idea from my animator friend, Le Phi Hung.

In animation, we usually animate the character, then turn on Motion Path to check the pacing. This time we will do the opposite way:

- Create Curve Path

- Create Locator that follow this path

- Adjust Locator animation

- Then copy the animation back to character control

FBX animation baking script for Game Engine (Truong rigs)

  • Please notice, recent versions of Maya use Python 3. I dont have time to update the script to work with Python 3, I'm sorry.


1. Manual but safe:

2. The Script:

I finished the script that can possibly solve the problems with my rigs when exporting fbx for game engine (hopefully).
