Autodesk maya bonus tools 2014 mac

Below is from the script editor of one of the Maya Could not find an appropriate startup camera: A substitute will be used. Adding notes attribute to node. Creating scriptNode for opening Scene Annotation window. When you use "Delete Scene Annotation" and save then it really should get rid of it so that it won't open the next time. You might have run into a bug although honestly I've never seen that happen. I guess for some reason you are getting multiple scene annotation nodes.

You can delete them and save your file and that should fix it. If not let me know. How do you permanently delete the Scene Annotation window? I created some Scene Annotations for multiple Maya files, and been getting complaints on how it pops up every time they launch the files. I tried the "Delete Scene Annotation" and then saving the file. However it still comes up the next time the file is opened. I really don't want the Scene Annotation attached to the Maya file anymore. Can you help? Janina Salari 5 years ago. This looks like it's just the original install of Maya Did you definitely uninstall the original and reinstall SP2?

Is this for GMT adjustment? Richard Mulawa 6 years ago. Okay, sorry for the panic. I figured it out from some of the other posts and responses.

Thanks to the guys that posted and to the author I believe you should add this information about appending the userSetup. I looked in the docs pdf and there is nothing about what to do if the bonus tools menu dos not appear maya! I assume some other plugin is interfering but do not know where to check. I am guessing in the userSetup. If this is in fact the problem! All the plugins seem to be there in the plugin manager and the installation went fine!

What is conflicting and how the bloody hell do I fix it? I just installed the latest maya x64 bonus tools. There weere no errors during installation but I have no bonustool menu when I launch maya??? There may be a conflict with another plugin but I am just guessing. But I recall this being a problem in the past with bonus tools. Is there a way to check why the bonus tools menu is not appearing and possible manually install it? I find toggle selected face display has a bug.

When I hide some faces, then I select edges to extrude, the new faces won't show. And in face extrude, new faces show perfectly. Anne Ross 6 years ago.

Christopher Parent 7 years ago. This is so much cleaner and easier to navigate around than the past bonus tools. Thank you! Yes you are right I can see how this would be easy to do inadvertently. I think the easiest solution will be to add a dialogue box for confirmation e. Are you sure you want to delete?

Apple Footer

That should be easy enough to add, so I will do it for the next release. Scene annotations is great. One practical problem: If I am leaving long notes, I go to exit, it would help me as a user to put some space between those options because I have consistently lost work because they are right next to one another. Remove the Drop-down menu and put buttons at the bottom or top of the interface or; use a reminder for Save without Closing or Delete Annotations: Are you sure" or something similar.

A great tool. I use it to save detailed notes in lectures as I go through Maya tutorials so that I can reference it later on. I realized that this tool is sorely lacking in documentation and more importantly in need of a face lift. I'm working on updating it now and will have a new version and a tutorial for it in a few weeks. Alisa K - Unfortunately there is no way currently to do a mirror of a range of frames with this tool. It's a good idea though, so I will put it on my "to do" list: Alisa Kober 7 years ago.

Maya BonusTools 2013 - Mirror Animation

I am new to Maya, but have worked in 3dsMax before. I am dying for a mirror pose feature for animation. I noticed Bonus Tools has a Mirror Animation tool which works nicely, but is there a way to constrain its effect to just the current or a selected range of frames?

I have searched the internet for a solution but nothing works for Maya Please HELP! I am on the trial and doing test anims hoping to land a job. I need this ASAP! Thanks to anyone who has a solution! Thank you Steve. I think I actually got it to work by changing the multi-slices value and reverting it back to 1. By default it didn't cut a thing. Vladimir Minkin 7 years ago. How to create a sub-menu for BonusTools in main menu, i can not see it. The Draw Split Tool should be working. It was when I last tested it anyway. You might want to try resetting the options and starting fresh.

It sounds like it might be specific to the multi-split option but not sure. Is the Draw Split Tool supposed to work? It doesn't cut anything, and gives me this: Cannot convert data of type int[] to type float[].

Comments on Autodesk Maya Bonus Tools 2014-2015

Performed a "multiSliceSplit". Even if I desable the edge snapping, I don't get any error but it still doesn't cut anything I read the pdf about the tool to be sure I wasn't doing it wrong, but apparently that's the tool that is broken. BTW, good thing to show in dark grey what tools can be activated in the plugins. But after having activated them, they are still dark grey, it needs a restart of maya to be able to use them. Caypiranha - sorry for your frustrations. First of all Did you try the useSetup. As for BT not being part of Maya's install.

We're actually considering that for future versions. But regardless BT will continue to be developed differently and independently from the regular Maya dev cycle. This is what makes BonusTools "Bonus" tools. But many many tools that began in BT have made there way into Maya proper. Regarding VP2. Completely rewriting the Maya viewport is a -huge- undertaking. There is no way it could be done in one pass.

Substance Bonus Tools for Maya 2.0[Windows] 2.0.0 for Maya (maya script)

Therefore we are doing it incrementally over several releases. They will coexist for a while until everything is working and then VP2 will eventually become "the" viewport. Something that big with so many implications just takes time, especially with a product that is as complex as Maya.

As for AD development in general I came over from Alias and I was skeptical at first. But I have seen a number of releases that have been quite aggressive. As I said But over the last few years I think we have had a pretty good track record of sticking with things and continuing to improve them. IMO our recent history on that front is much improved over our past history at Alias. K P 7 years ago. Sorry, but i am alos tortally frustated Good for autodesk - instead of fusing all theire power to the packeges, it seems a little profit is the only thing to go for I just remember for e.

I hope its there. Wielkoslaw Staniszewski 7 years ago. After installing this plug-in, menu BonusTools disappeared! Following the recommendation I made it: Thank you for your help STLR! I have Windows 7 x64 bit. Gino Dammers 7 years ago. Can the webmaster do something about this? Sorry about my double post before.. How does someone actually join the BonusTools dev team? These don't seem to be Autodesk only people.. Mitch Rosefelt 7 years ago. All I needed to do was put the line: The reason the installer missed it in my case is that it probably didn't check to see where my userSetup. I must thank you and others, OH and myself for putting in there 2 cents worth.

It gets people thinking and eventually something good comes from it. Sorry for the frustration. Not sure why the setup has been difficult for some and not others. My only thought is that is has something to do with older versions of bonusTools being previously installed. We'll try to get to the bottom of it, but thanks your patience in the meantime. The reality is that all the userSetup.

So really, you can just create your own file called userSetup. HI ALL Boy these Bonus Tool Installers are a real piece of work!!! Of all the Versions of Maya only once did the Bonus install work properly. It was V I think. If you have installed Bonus Tools but can not see the menu then you may need to update your userSetup file. This new menu provides easy access to a variety of tools and utilities for daily use. Maya Bonus Tools has been organized to mimic the layout of the standard Maya menu sets.

Each sub-menu contains a number of related tools. Each of these can be torn off and floated just like standard Maya menus. Disabled it? Crashes every time I change icon size in the layout window tried on different computers. Images displayed in icons are not scaled so appear cropped. Works fine in , but I also want it to work in , which is also installed on my Mac, but the "universal installer" provided ignores it, and does not install bonus tools to the older installed version of Maya.

Please we need the version of this plugin! I think the bonus tools should be part of each Maya releases. Mac OS Win64 Linux. Bonus Tools ? BT launched today!
