This is a repository of scripts, small pieces of code, shaders etc. that you may find useful. You use anything from here entirely at your own risk.
MEL scripts: Light Manager offers Maya artists a quicker more intuitive interface for handling multiple lights simultaneously. The online docs are here. Python scripts: imgDetails is for those who like to write their HTML in a text editor the old fashioned way. It uses the very handy "sips" command line utility in Mac OS X 10.3 to create an HTML file containing the names and dimensions of all the web friendly images in the current directory (JPEG, GIF and PNG are supported). This saves you from having to load every image that you want to put on your site into a graphics package to find out how big it is. This script has saved me a lot of time. Mac OS X 10.3 and above only. Csh scipts (works on IRIX, Linux and Mac OS X): searchRep is a search and replace utility that enables you to edit the names of multiple files at one time. Very handy for turning the unhelpful names that digital cameras give the images stored on their cards into something more human intelligible. Slim Templates : Three Channel Trick is a simple slim template featuring a shader that seperates ambient, diffuse and specular components into the R,G, and B channels. Movies : Athena movie is the now rather aged HDRI Monte Carlo irradiance animation produced using BMRT 2.6. Advice for students : Student Advice Page is a collection of thoughts and book titles of interest that I believe might help those who aspire to work as lighting Technical Directors in the CG industry. |
