Authored Scripts
Here we have a collection of scripts i'm working on creating, some functioning and some works in progress, updates will be posted here. To see scripts on Github click the title or accompanying image of the script you would like to inspect.
Timeline Manager Script (WIP)
Description
A script to help manage the time slider when creating multiple animation clips in one Maya file, useful for when working to export to unity.
The script enables you to quickly switch between sections on the timeline that you define as an animation clip, the script also exports the name and time of the clips to a notepad file that can be used to help portion up the clips when in unity.
Concept
When creating animations for unity its common to work on multiple animations in one file, when you want to work or show somone one animation in particular it can be cumbersome to switch between active portions of the timeline to isolate the clip, this script will make this switching as simple as a button push.
Current State - simple UI created with buttons, set timeline to default values working.
Next step - take user input to define default values
(demo to follow)
Export Script

Concept
