I'm having an issue where if I click the SS button, instead of it switching between offsets and number of edges, it just throws out the error "G:/Libraries/Documents/maya/2017/scripts//AMTools/AMTScripts/StartShapeShifter.mel line 262: Found no valid items to add the attribute to. // "
also when I try to use easy circle, it just implodes.
Any idea how I can remedy these or if they are known issues,
I have the same issue too. I thought I installed the scripts wrong. But I guess everyone who is using MAYA 2018 has this same issue. ShapeShifter works except for that weird artifact.
Thanks in Advance to anyone who has a fix to this issue.
not a fix really but it seems that SS is doubling the geometry on top of itself, making an extrusion-like set of faces that are pointed inwards. deleting these interior duplicate faces seems to resolve the problem more or less but is not a practical fix. Dunno if its related or not but I also can't seem to get the middle-click to work for adjusting bevel offset and divisions...

Try to tweak "Support Offset" attribute. By default SS does not support different scene scale ( have to do some changes for centimeter linear units), and most of its bevels made with "Offset as Fraction" ON - check this also.
Is there a fix on the way for ShapeShifter in Maya 2018? I would rather not resort to 2017 - ShapeShifter is acting as described above (doubled faces, black zfighting artifacts, unresponsive middle mouse button when trying to tweak parameters). Both Crease+ and ADN Modeler Tools are so promising, yet I cannot use them at their full advantage due to bugs piling up under 2018.
Hey all ! your favorite African tech artist is back from the dead x)
[AMTools running in Maya 2018]
A
quick fix has been published to make AMTools compatible with Maya 2018,
while AMT2.0 and Mesh Blend 1.5 are both in preparations.
I've
tested Mesh Blend on Maya 2018 and it does seem to work fine, please
let me know if you're facing any issues, as i'll be working further on
both plugins this weekend and the coming weekends, and will get back to
this topic and see if any issue is code or user-generated.
With
Black Friday just around the corner I've also set all the plugins to a
low 4.99$ from now 'till Sunday, you can grab it now if you haven't
already, and for those of you who already have it the future
updates/upgrades will all be free as usual, same for anyone who gets it
right now
It has been almost two years since
Baidhir and I started working on our next-move, PolygonFlow, and the
project has matured enough that we're really confident about a first
private beta sometime mid next year. PolygonFlow won't be yet
another suite of plugins but a whole new concept around which tools are
made, and we can't wait to share more about it in the future.
As
always, if you're a student/don't have the money to buy the plugins
even at 4.99$ (I've been there ) don't hesitate to send me a message
and i'll make sure you get yourself a copy ASAP.
Currently getting error "Cannot find procedure "doMenuComponentSelectionExt"." when I try using shapeshifter
Easy circle goes through, but it just kind of implodes. Panel boolean works though. Wondering if my issues with it are related to the location of my document folder or if its a different 2018 issue in the new release. Hope to figure this out
I think you might want to run the modeling toolkit once or twice in a Maya session, then try it again. I'm gonna need to switch to another command for that operation, will get back to you this Friday evening.
Also pushing that good ol' quad fill this friday, so hold on tight !
i purchase new version AMT 1.5 as soon as possible, but it seems still doesnt work correctly for maya 2018. my maya version is 2018.4 why ? anyone can help thx

Hi, yeah I got the same error. To fix that I added the following line:
source dagMenuProc;
in the StartShapeShifter.mel script file. Now, it seems to work fine.
// Warning: line 12: fopen: unable to open file "C:/Users/makersMark/Documents/maya/2018/scripts/AMTools/AMTScripts/UserMenuRepository.ini" for mode "r". //
// Error: line 50: Number of rows must be greater than 0. // Please help:)
I have the same issue too. I thought I installed the scripts wrong. But I guess everyone who is using MAYA 2018 has this same issue. ShapeShifter works except for that weird artifact.

It seems like a common error with Maya 2018 and sadly I don't want to roll back to 2017. Anyway, I was about to buy the tool pack but it looks like is not fixed yet for 2018, can anyone confirm this?

Hello Script work in maya 2019 the problem is proper scale.
It only works when you put entire scrits folder it in: C:\Users\name\Documents\maya\2019\scripts\AMTools You allso need to run entire script “ADNModelerTools05.mel” I add this to my shelf.
Comand: source "AMTools/ADNModelerTools05.mel"; dosen't work for me.I only tested ShapeShifter. You can allso adjust support offset something about: 0.01 should works.
Replies
also when I try to use easy circle, it just implodes.
Any idea how I can remedy these or if they are known issues,
other than those issues, this plugin is wizardry.
thanks!
// Error: Line 1.39: Cannot find file "AMTools/ADNModelerTools05.mel" for source statement.
I was wondering though, do you have any idea when support for Maya 2018 could be ready ? I really need it for Maya 2018
