Additional Info

After the creation of the 'CC•Rig' you get a direct feedback when you move the time slider. Also you can add more targets, forses (to achive desire effect), adjust distance and time etc. Support all type of 'Free' (without target) non-animated cameras. Written and tested on 3dsMax 2011 x64 and 3dsMax 2012 x64, but it may work in older version. UPDATE (v1.1) -> fixed some bugs and added installer support for 2013+

A problem with creating the CC rig.

How do I fill ChaserCam's Target objects list for the 1st time? I tried clicking and doubleclicking everything, but the "Pick Objects To Insert" window shown in the video doesn't pop up for me. I use 3ds Max 2013 x64, but looks like clementinos in the comments below mentioned same situation in 2011.

An exceptional tool!

Wow, this script looks really well done, your videos are also really good too! This is really very useful for so many situations as it helps you to get a really interesting camera motion without having to do nearly as much effort. If you tried to do all that by hand would take a long time, and you probably wouldn't get such smooth controlled motion either. What a time saver! You definitely put some work into these tools, bravo!

Well done!

Branko, very nice! Useful, easy to use and looks good.
Thanks for sharing this script.

Hallo, clementinos.
If you want to collect target objects of the existing rig, press "Pick CC_CamHelper" button and select "CC_CamHelper" object in the scene.Then push the button next to it (Restore targets in listbox)(see attachment). That's all. Work in both max2011 х64 and max2012 x64.
Problem occurs if you try to copy or change name of the rig.
If you want to delete the rig go to "Named Selection Sets" and select "CC • Rig..." to unhide all rig elements and then delete them.
