For Animation Maya is a standart but dont forget the Mel Script as a great plus. Many companys who use Maya have their own Scripts for her Pipeline. A negative point are the tools. In the older Versions the booleans are horrible and other tools are medicore. Sometimes its hard. But 2014, maybe, realtime Boolean…
Soulburns Object painter would work a lot better than advanced painter. I don't mean to bash on a script that is above what I can put together but Neil did such an amazing job I can't go back to advance painter. His spline painter script put advance painter to shame.

Say if i clicked an "export to desktop" button, the script would then tab me onto my desktop. Any input would be really useful, as Im very much flying blind at the moment.
Oh yea no problem. It's good you've used other rigs. I've used biped, a lot. It is a different kind of rig from I used before it, but once I got the hang of it, it was pretty great.
