Rig custom UI

By Soganatsu · 2007-05-07

Description

Howdy,

I started a couple days ago on a project to make a custom bip rig setup basically. What i'm going to try and do is make a plug-in basically for max 9. It'll work just like a biped does now, but be more controlled like a bone setup with a scripted UI with constraints and all that goodness. This biped will be universal so I can setup however the character is shaped and how tall or wide it is. The only thing you'd have to do is skin the model basically. Before I get too heavy into the project though I wanted to ask, do you think this is possible?

Aha hey thanks man for the support but I don't think i'll be able to work on that script for a while, I got a job on a game team and work full time about 18 hours a day so if I ever get the chance i'll try to finish that script.

 

very nice script btw :) can't believe you can move that fast, that's insane :P

yes this is totally possible, i have done it several times -

here is one of my latest attempts

it supports many features including but not limited to

- loading and saving of rigs

- support for differnet rig types on different limbs

- unlimted limbs

- resizing of rigs

- completely name independant

takes alot of work but is very rewarding to finish
