Matthew Lee: Quick Tip : P4Python Tickets and Motionbuilder 2013
http://matthewleeanimatortech.blogspot.com/2014/09/quick-tip-p4python-tickets-and.html
Monday, 8 September 2014. Quick Tip : P4Python Tickets and Motionbuilder 2013. Motionbuilder 2013 uses Python 2.6 and unfortunately P4Python 2.6 does not support tickets (or not in an obvious way that I could find). Trying to access tickets through the module will result in the following error. However simply adding the run tickets function from P4Python 2.7 into P4Python 2.6, will give you access to tickets through 2.6, and thus Motionbuilder. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Matthew Lee: Motionbuilder : Creating a 3rd Person Game Camera System
http://matthewleeanimatortech.blogspot.com/2014/03/motionbuilder-creating-3rd-person-game.html
Sunday, 9 March 2014. Motionbuilder : Creating a 3rd Person Game Camera System. If your game engine stores camera settings in a Python parsable language, for example JSON or xml, you may be able to port your engines camera system into Motionbuilder. The idea is to give animators the exact same cameras from game, in Mobu and with the same control (XBox pad). From the Asset Browser create 2 Nulls and a Camera. Name the Nulls 'GameCameraPivot' and 'GameCameraLookAt', and name the camera GameCamera. Double c...

Matthew Lee: Python Importing : Import Correct Module Based on Caller
http://matthewleeanimatortech.blogspot.com/2014/02/python-importing-import-correct-module.html
Thursday, 13 February 2014. Python Importing : Import Correct Module Based on Caller. Please view comments below for suggestions doing this in a more elegant fashion. Cheers for the comments and tips guys :). For this example let's imagine we want to import MySQL-Python. Into a module we are writing, but we don't know if the person importing this module will be in Maya or Mobu. Consider the following package structure:. MyModule (this is where we want to import the SQL module). From the result its probab...

Matthew Lee: Quicktip: Connecting and Disconnecting attributes with pymel
http://matthewleeanimatortech.blogspot.com/2013/05/quicktip-connecting-attributes-with.html
Wednesday, 29 May 2013. Quicktip: Connecting and Disconnecting attributes with pymel. Pymel has a much nicer way of connecting and disconnecting attributes than the cmds.connectAttr/disconnectAttr standard. However creating the above locators with pymel gives us the ability to connect attrs with , and disconnect attrs with /. It is also possible to connect standard nodes using their name string to a pynode using the same method. for example:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Useful Technical Art Links.
