This toolbox is a dynamic Python interface I designed to streamline my workflow in Maya. It integrates essential Maya shortcuts and externally sourced tools, seamlessly organizing these elements to simplify repetitive tasks, boost productivity, and adapt to my specific needs.
It reflects years of incremental learning and problem-solving, gradually pieced together to meet the unique requirements of my workflow.
Key Features:
- Smart Shortcuts: Quick access to my most frequently used tools and functions, including improved versions of Maya’s default features such as:
- Clean Combine: An enhanced version of Maya’s combine tool, integrating automated cleanup for better results and efficiency.
- Make Hole & Fill Hole: Refined options for creating and filling holes, ensuring cleaner geometry and a smoother workflow.
- Key Scripts: Automate common tasks with tailored scripts, including:
- Sanity Check & Renaming Tools: Ensure scene consistency and rename objects efficiently.
- Quick Import/Export for Temporary Meshes: Easily import or export temporary geometry for rapid iterations without interrupting your workflow.
- Quick Character Reference Import: Instantly import reference characters to serve as scale or proportion guides for modeling.
- Reference Image Placement: Quickly import and position reference images correctly in the 3D world, providing the perfect starting point for modeling.
- Primitive Models with Adaptive Topology: Import predefined primitives with optimized topology, ready for immediate use or further customization.
This toolbox is uniquely tailored to my workflow, offering an intuitive and centralized way to enhance efficiency and focus on what matters most in 3D modeling.
