Maya Duplicate Script / Tool?
polycounter lvl 9
Can anyone recommend any Duplicate and Radial Array scripts for Maya that are worth checking out?
I've jumped back into Maya from Modo which has some seriously good duplication tools and finding the built in "duplicate special" pretty bad, mostly because there is no live action in the viewport of what the settings do.
I'm looking for some duplicate mesh, face + radial duplicate tools that are a lot more visual and allow me to see whats going on as a drag and move my objects around.
Seems like some pretty basic functionality there has to be something that does it?!
Thanks

SImply select object and create MASH network with it > In Distribution you have various modes like linear, radial, scatter on mesh (face, edge, verts....), etc. You can also add those on CurveWarp or add Deformers on top of it. Very flexible and easy to learn.
Tons of tuts on:
