I am rather new to both python and maya. I'm trying to build a tool to create a
skybox, so I have already created the cube and inverted its normals, but i
can't seem to find how to apply a texture to it. All help is appreciated. Thank
you.
Here is my code:
import maya.cmds as cmds
from os import listdir
def makeSphere(*args):
cmds.polySphere( n='mySphere', sx=100, sy=100)
return
def makeCube(*args):
cmds.polyCube( sx=5, sy=5, sz=5 )
return
def makeCylinder(*args):
cmds.polyCylinder(n='myCylinder', sx=5, sy=5, sz=5)
return
def makeCone(*args):
cmds.polyCone( sx=10, sy=15, sz=5, r=20, h=10)
return
def makePlane(*args):
cmds.polyPlane( sx=10, sy=15, w=15, h=20)
return
def makeTorus(*args):
cmds.polyTorus( sx=8, sy=16, r=10, sr=1 )
return
def makePrism(*args):
cmds.polyPrism ( sc=10, sh=15, w=20)
return
def makePyramid(*args):
cmds.polyPyramid( sc=10, sh=15, ns=5, w=20)
return
def makePipe(*args):
cmds.polyPipe( sh=10, h=20 )
return
def makeHelix(*args):
cmds.polyHelix(r=1, d=1, cuv=0)
return
def makeSoccerball(*args):
cmds.polyPrimitive( r=1, l=0.4036, pt=0)
return
def makePlatonicSolids(*args):
cmds.polyPlatonicSolid( r=2, l=2, st=1)
return
def importModel(*args):
filename = cmds.fileDialog2(fileMode=1, caption="Import model")
cmds.file( filename[0], i=True );
return
def makeSkybox(*args):
cmds.polyCube( sx=100, sy=100, sz=100, name = "skybox" )
# cmds.polyCut(deleteFaces = True, cuttingDirection = "y", cutPlaneCenter =
(0, 0, 0) )
cmds.polyNormal('skybox', nm = 0)
filename = cmds.fileDialog2(fileMode=1, caption="Import texture")
#cmds.polyProjection('skybox', type = 'Spherical' ,uvSetName= filename[0])
cmds.file( filename[0], i=True, applyTo = "skybox")
#image_skybox = input("Please input the full file location of the desired
image to be applied to your skybox: ")
#cmds.image(image = image_skybox)
return
winID = "kevsFrameWin"
if cmds.window(winID, exists=True):
cmds.deleteUI(winID)
# Create the window
cmds.window(winID,t="frames")
# Create a 'container' Layout to keep our frames in
rootLayout = cmds.columnLayout()
# Create a frame layout. Note that I am not declaring a
# variable here as frameLayout are only supposed to
# support a single child, and our child will be another
# layout... So we really want to reference the child
# rather then the frameLayout parent anyway.
cmds.frameLayout( label="Top frame" )
# Generate a child Layout inside the frame.
# declare a variable here as it will allow us to reference
# contents inside our frame (within this layout).
frameOne = cmds.columnLayout()
cmds.button( label='Sphere', command=makeSphere)
cmds.button( label='Cube', command=makeCube)
cmds.button( label='Cylinder', command=makeCylinder)
cmds.button( label='Cone', command=makeCone)
cmds.button( label='Plane', command=makePlane)
cmds.button( label='Torus', command=makeTorus)
cmds.button( label='Prism', command=makePrism)
cmds.button( label='Pyramid', command=makePyramid)
cmds.button( label='Pipe', command=makePipe)
cmds.button( label='Helix', command=makeHelix)
cmds.button( label='Soccerball', command=makeSoccerball)
cmds.button( label='Platonic Solid', command=makePlatonicSolids)
cmds.button( label='Skybox', command=makeSkybox)
cmds.button( label='Browse to import models', command=importModel)
# Jump back to our root container Layout to add a new Frame
# If we were to use the '..' approach, we would need *2* of
# them to get back to the root.
#
# '..' back to the frame parent, then '..' to the root parent
cmds.setParent(rootLayout)
# Display the UI
cmds.showWindow(winID)
