Hello guys:
This is the first plugin i upload here. This plugin allows users create a new type of poly primitive that is grid-like. By using it, you can create a solid poly net or a cube full of holes.
I tried to make this plugin more like utilities of Maya. So i created the attribute editor template, icons (shown in shelf,outliner,hypershade) and added menu item in Create->Poly Primitives menu.
How to setup it:
1. Unzip the package, there are two package, one for Maya 2011, the other for Maya 2012. Unzip the one you want.
2. Now you have 4 folders. AETemplates, icons, plug-ins, scripts.
3. Open your Maya install folder, for example mine is C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2012.
Cut-Paste the contents from: Unziped AETemplates ----> Maya install folder\scripts\AETemplates
Unziped icons ---> Maya install folder\icons
Unziped plug-ins ---> Maya install folder\bin\plug-ins
4. Open "Documents-Maya"
Cut-Paste the contents from: Unziped scripts ---> Documents\maya\2012(or 2011)-x64\scripts
if there is already a userSetup.mel open it using notepad and copy the content of mine and append to yours.
5. Open Maya, go to Window-> Settings/Preferences -> Plug-in Manager.
check the Loaded and Auto load boxes of PolyGridPlugin.py
6. Go to Create -> Polygon Primitives you will find Grid from the bottom of this menu. and enjoy it.
