But I mean if you really wanna use deformer in a practical way, you should learn C++, since it always deal with large data, which python wrap is not ideal. On Tue, Oct 11, 2022 at 5:52 PM Zeshi Chen wrote: > If you just want to learn about how to write your own deformer, this > tutorial is good

+1 for Chad Vernon, if you're not looking for a personal course. I'd also mention Complete Maya Programming vol. 1&2 , possibly the best book I read when I learnt the api back in the days, although a bit old now (and not

Looks like I needed to add the iterator instead of multiplying, noob mistake. *width = 7height = 3for i in range(4):my_circle = cmds.circle() cmds.scale(width+i,height+i,my_circle, xy=1)* Cheers A terça-feira, 11 de outubro de 2022 à(s) 19:31:54 UTC+1, johancc escreveu: >

Hi, I'm looking for a "veteran" who can help me to get a good introduction at OpenMaya stuff. I would like to learn about: - deformers (copying weights from deformers to skinCluster, to lattice or even from a mesh to nurbSurface for example...) - how, really, cluster deformer work - matrices I'm

[Maya-Python] Evenly spaced ellipse(s) when scaling

Hey all. So I need to keep the same space when duplicating and scaling a nurbs circle(turned into ellipse). The curves on the right of the image are the target(tweaked manually). On the left I just duplicated and scaled uniformly. I wonder what is the math to keep them with even width and heigh
