[Maya] 3d paint script (as in geometry paint)
Hi all, I thought I would pimp my script to the community, maybe some others would find it useful. The story so far; after getting frustrated a lot trying to use geometryPaint, it seemed writing a new one was the easier way for me to get the work flow I was looking for.

Re: [Maya] 3d paint script (as in geometry paint)
yeah, I was caught in the giant fat windows 7 UI style whirlwind, sue me ;) I am planning to redo the whole thing whenever I get more than 2 weeks of python behind me and migrate the remaining MEL into a full python script. For a while I wanted to do that distance threshold option, but as the script is laid out right now… -

Re: [Maya] 3d paint script (as in geometry paint)
Sorry to bump an old thread, but its totally not worth creating a new thread. But greuh, this tool seems to slow down over time. I tried flushing Maya's undo queue (flushUndo), but to no avail.

Re: [Maya] 3d paint script (as in geometry paint)
Tried it today, works really well! However the first time I installed it, I put it in "My Documents/maya/2008/", and it didn't detect the Python file properly.

Re: [Maya] 3d paint script (as in geometry paint)
those are some giant buttons (looks like Wii style) maybe add some distance slider so that one can hold down the pen or mouse and draw strokes of objects. The distance variable would then determine in world units at which point to add another geometry in a stroke.
