help installin GIJoe plugin.
I added the gijoe shelf icon and when i click it, i get the gijoe window. but when i hit create, i get this error message:// Error: File not found.: C:Program FilesAliasWavefrontMaya4.5scriptsGIJoe.lights //
But in that directory, the GIJoe.lights file is there. Please help, thanks. |
common prob.. instead of using the "\" slash you should use the "/" slash.. so it would be:
C:/Program Files/AliasWavefront/Maya/4.5/scripts/GIJoe.lights if it still does not work, use doubled forward slashes "\\" C:\\Program Files\\AliasWavefront\\Maya\\4.5\\scripts\\GIJoe.l ights hope it helps, Tariq |

i use "/" and it works,, trust me,, check it out.
and btw, \ is used i think for commenting lines in a script so they are not allowed to be used as file pointing commands.. just a hint |
I having the EXACT same problem.
Here's the thread i've been using: http://forum.simplymaya.com/showthre...&threadid=4426 KBrown explanes the double \\ thing. I tried it and it dosent work. And even if it did, you guys dont have to alter the script just to get it to work do you? Tariqrf: When you click Go Create when happens? |
if u cant get it to work that way u can always source the script instead. Open the script editor...goto file>source script. When the window opens...go to where u placed the GI_Joe script, select it and click on Open...it should now work :)

you have to alter it a bit.. goto http://www.3dluvr.com/pixho/
.:Edit copy and paste from the site: - Installation: - Unzip the GI_joe.zip and copy the mel and the scene file (GIJoe.lights) into your script directory. Copy the GIJoe_icon.bmp into the 'icons' directory of the install directory of Maya (i.e.: drive:\AW\extras\icons) - If I get better day after day with Mel, I assure you I'm still the same worm in maths, so you still have to edit (with any good text editor (UltraEdit or Textpad) the mel script and search the string 'your_script_directory_path/GIJoe.lights' (located in line 57) Replace the existing path by your own script path (ex: d:/Maya/scripts/GIJoe.lights) - Start a Maya session, and open the script editor, then type source GI_Joe. Press [enter] Retype GI_Joe and press [enter] to execute the script. You can then drag the GI_Joe into your shelf and select the GIJoe_icon as shelf icon. |
after i click go create.. the GI Joe window opens and the lights are created.. thats all... and btw, you only have to alter the script for the directories.. nothing else..
and again: use "/" not "\" |
Awesome, the / worked. Thanks for the help.
|
i told you... glad to be of some help

no u r right...its the same with Java too, except that its '\\'
|
tariqrf: I've done all of the installation when i first got it.
I've tried \, \\, /, //. Nothing seems to work :banghead: alexgc: I tried the Scouce Script too and got the following message: // Error: FOR4 // // Error: Syntax error // I tried everyones suggestion and none of them work... :confused: |
ok Z1mmnd14 tell me how u installed the script.
1.Did u make the adjustment to line 57 (or whatever it is) and only that line? 2.Did u install the script into the correct place as u made clear in the script ammendment? 3.Did u place the GI_Joe.lights file in the same directory as the GI_Joe script? |
btw that syntax error u have means that something in ur script doesnt make sense which leads me to believe somewhere along the line u made a mistake
Open the script in notepad and search for the word "For4"...when u find it delete the number 4...It shouldnt be there |
