Problems with start!
Copy the python script file (wCreateMrProxy.py) to my local
c:\Documents and Settings\Admin\My Documents\maya\2008\scripts
1) into the Maya python command line type: from wCreateMrProxy import *
from wCreateMrProxy import *
# Traceback (most recent call last):
# File "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2008\Python\lib\site-packages\maya\app\python.py", line 17, in formatException
# result = stringBuffer.getvalue().decode('utf8')
# File "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2008\bin\python25.zip\encodings\utf_8.py", line 16, in decode
# UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position 120-121: invalid data
2)Usage:
create your polymesh HiRes object, apply materials, combine all parts,
select your HiRes poly transform nodes and type wCreateMrProxy()
wCreateMrProxy()
# Error: name 'wCreateMrProxy' is not defined
# Traceback (most recent call last):
# File "", line 1, in
# NameError: name 'wCreateMrProxy' is not defined #
Write please more detailed instruction on use script (I with Python at all did not work)
It works great. One aditional feature I would like is I could choose percentage of polygons of original object in proxy. 10% of million polys is still a lot!
