help MaxScript for rig system

Submitted by m00nta on Fri, 2014-08-08 03:46

hey guys, i have a small problem with a script that i am trying to do
the idea is to make a script that can create a rig for any characters (standard rig for people ) with a few clicks ... so the problem is when i try to align a bone to a dummy it aligns the position but not the rotation.

you will find below a screenshot of the result i am getting
by the way this is my first time in maxscript and here is the code :

maxops.affectchildren=false

select $Dummy001
aa = $.rotation.x
bb = $.rotation.y
cc = $.rotation.z
a = $.pos.x
b = $.pos.y
c = $.pos.z
select $Bone001

dotNet listview and checkboxes

Submitted by 3dwannab on Sat, 2019-08-03 05:09

This is a snippet of code where I want to control the checkboxes by multiple selections in the listview itself and hitting the checkbox (whether it is checked or not) to select / de-select them accordingly, trouble is when I do this it doesn't do them in one but for each item.

Basically, if I shift and select the items and check off the box the value counts down in real-time for the countLabelVal text.

Is there a dotNet way of doing this?

on lv ItemChecked do part of the code below is the trouble maker.

Submitted by jbatchelor76 on Fri, 2010-06-04 21:35

I am a graphic designer/animator and I think that the material manager script will help me tremendously, but it doesn't work right on my system. I have a 64 bit system with Max 2010 64 bit. When I open it says (--Unkown property: "count" in undefined). After that it shows the Loading Materials floater, but nothing ever happens. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks in Advance
