How do i make a HELIX spline.
Hi there.
I did a keyword search for HELIX and it came up with one answer. MAYA 7 has a HELIX tool. I have Maya 6.5. Can someone please point me in the direction of a MEL script / Plugin / therapist to help me make a HELIX spline in MAYA 6.5? I have made a HELIX spline but it was more of a case of 'connect the dots' of a extruded face with a Y offset and rotation (yeah, so i made a bolt! :bandit: ) thanks in advance -geedie |
hey i have no idea if this will work this is just wat maya 7 say in script editor
polyHelix -c 3 -h 5 -w 5 -r 0.4 -sa 8 -sco 50 -sc 0 -d 1 -ax 0 1 0 -tx 2 -ch 1; copy paste it into script editor and do ctrl+enter to try it i have no ideea about mel so it may work or may not (probly not) ne way try if not soz for wasting ur time |
no that wont work, because in Maya 7, the command polyHelix is a pre-scripted primitive. So if you try that in Maya 6.5 or 6, it will just give you a syntax error. And as for the other signs after the polyHelix command, they are not needed; they just tell the dimensions of the helix.
As for a script, why don't you just go to google.com and search for helix script in maya 6.5? Im sure you will find something. hope that helps. cYa LaTeR, MaTt :alien: |

Grabbin it now.
Thanks a heap for the link. Don't know how many new commands / functions MAYA 7 will give me over 6.5. I will wait, perhaps until 7.5, and then get 7. |
