Maya Mel Script Help
Eh all, So, my knowledge with mel scripting is very limited but I figured out the basics of the script at the bottom of this link http://ndhaussy.free.fr/maya_object_spreading/ where Nicolas shows how to spread using constraints.

Re: Radius Mech [DS]
Hey, JKMakowka; thanks for the reply! The chest and head pieces are the only parts of the model that have multiple UV shells, however, you're right that they can be optimized more.

MEL is it possible to select face ring based on one user selected face?
I thought this would be easy, but I was totally wrong. Is there a way to get a ring of faces in mel, I figured out how to get an edge ring, but not a face ring. Pickwalk can do it, but that requires the user to select two faces where I only want the user to have to select one. -
