AutoBones: New auto-rigging tool for 3ds Max

Hello, my name is Kevin Mackey.

During my time as an animator and technical artist, I have developed a tool called AutoBones, a system for
1) quickly creating character rigs using the Max bones system
2) allowing each chain of bones to be keyframed as a single object, and
3) switching seamlessly between IK and FK animation.

I have run a beta test in order to confirm a high degree of performance and stability, and am now making a commercial version available, including a 30-day free trial.

This tool add a Float Script on the selected Object. It forces the object to always rotate (or lookat) following the movement of the Master. You don't have to rotate the object by yourself, only to translate the master in Autokey.

Harry's Proxy Creator

This script is very similar to a script Jason Schleifer wrote from Maya, it allows you to split a predefined object into several segments based on the transforms of special cutter objects, these segments can then be linked back into a skeleton hierarchy. The advantage of displaying segmented geometry in the viewport rather than the skinned mesh is that you get faster playback speeds.

When you evaluate this script it create a new "Category" in the "Customize User Interface" window called "Harry's Proxy Creator" where you'll find the tool

This tool creates a 'Helper' that has a limited angle, with reference to other 'bone'.

Travel Distance

a Maxscript Controller to measure and expose the distance traveled by an object.
1: select an object, a point or something else
2: run the script
3: in the modify panel, clic on Pick Reference button and pick the object you want to mesure travel distance.

Now, if you animate the object in autokey, you will see the value changing.
You can use it in wire Parameter or in expressions or script controllers

Link Array (directional)

This code simply allows a users to link a selection of objects based on the order of selection. You can use either 0 or 1 to define the direction. That allows you to link everything forwards or backwards. Rather simple code but I figured someone would find use for it.

clearlistener()
 
fn fnLinkArray arr dir:0= (
 
	if dir != 0 then (
		reverseArr = for i = arr.count to 1 by -1 collect arr[i]
		arr = reverseArr	
	)
 
	for o in arr do o.parent = undefined
 
	for i = 1 to (arr.count-1) do
	(
		child = arr[i]
		parent = arr[i+1]
		child.parent = parent
