skin

Since the reset function of skin wrap doesn't work via maxscript, I had to create this tool to do it instead. It's not fully tested... it needs the command panel to be open to work, since it's telling max to actually push the button for us. Found some reference on CGTalk for this... so it's not all me!

With this script you can fast and easy setup skin Envelopes for your character or other object that has skin modifier.

This script was created to help in rigging for animation. It works by
selecting and assigning verts to bones, then creating the Skin Modifier
when you are done.

Bind this script to a hotkey and use it to increase the weight for each vert for the selected bone to 1.
