At wits end on Maya, Xray plugins

Postby Vancer2 on 29 Mar 2014 02:19

Ok so I had maya 2009 installed and I was trying to get the Xray plugins working I could only get Xraytools.mll to work. I have googled EXTENSIVLY to the point of mental exhaustion I installed my xray SDK and found out that it doesnt have the plugs for 2009 only for maya 8.5 so i installed Xray COP which is at C:\Program Files (x86)\X-Ray CoP SDK I used the scripts and copied the plugins over from their But the plugins from here ARE NOT loading. I have no idea what is wrong. I decided to try and "Find" a maya 8.5 as it seems thats all google is finding online of people having success. I stil have no idea what to do with xray_path.ltx I put it in the bin folder and Im told to put $sdkroot$ = true| true| C:\Program Files\X-Ray SDK\level_editor. But the plugisn in maya still WILL NOT LOAD. I am exhausted just thinking about it. Please does anyone have anything to help me :((

Welcome to the forum Vancer2

I dug into my files and and found an XRAY plugin for MAYA 2008 (xrayMayaTools.mll ), an actual plugin which I used myself on MAYA 2008 some time ago for some modding work. Worked great for me.
Plugin is from BARDAK, a legendary programmer, I should credit him duly here.

I zipped it for you and attached downloadable under this post. There are two small text files in it which explains what's what, from Bardak again.

Hope it works for you.

Even with Maya 2008 the plugins tend to be somewhat... unpredictable. I used Maya 2008 in order to change some reload animations to better ones but actual mesh editing is a real pain. I couldn't even get mesh smoothing working without screwing up the models.

So do I have to manually make new animations or do I have to rename the animations so they will work, say for example the pm makarov uses PM_reload for its reloading animation The p38 im using for right now just has "Reload" IF rename the animation to pm_reload? Also is it possible to import animations from other files, export it as an obj and load it into the Actor editor so the animations will work?
