Modo can run python scripts yes. Perl and Lua too. There is a Modo SDK, not something I've looked into before, probably not necessary for this task though (I assume). I'm fairly sure something like this would be beyond my abilities without a lot of help, but I'll read up on modo scripting and I/O stuff when I get a chance.
C++ , Python, and math skills. From there you should be able to create your own apps, or get to learning the API for larger programs (3DSMax/Maya/etc.) to create tools specifically for them. And yes, you'll need to know the creation process/pipelines for 3D art if you want to create tools to help 3D artists. Also:…
Squeezing in some stuff this week between work and a python course. Unfortunately I'm away this weekend again. Got some good feedback on this, including the forearm being incorrect shape wise and some tweaks on the texture. Pretty much final now texture wise; but super wip presentation. I'm going to barrel on with…
I was watching a video from Flippednormals and they were going over midpoints for displacement maps. I was always told before when using 16bit tiff to use 0.5 as the midpoint and when using a 32bit exr to use 0 as the midpoint, but that video was talking about values like -1 and even 1 if python was involved. I have zero…

I got all exited when I found a version of Bonus Tools for 8.5 is meant to have preserve uvs. This could save me a tonne of time, but I can't get the thing to work.. The python script doesn't even seem to be there, but some people in the Autodesk download page's user comments seem to be having some luck. Anyone here had…
Hi guys! This is a tool that I'm working on to speed the process of building modular objects and export them to game engines with few clicks. There are some scripts that do the same but are written in python, so people that use maya LT can´t use them unfortunately. I decided to develop my own script and add some useful…
I have an environment variable set for my scripts (MEL) and the like for Maya. I was informed I could place the scripts in sub-folders for organization. I did just that and the scripts won't run so Maya can't dig though sub-folders to find scripts. Then I decided to put the absolute path of the script, along with the…
