Installation

All files of the toolset are combined as a module. This allows for an easy installation and keeps all necessary files in one location.

To install unzip the download and drag the provided dragDropInstaller.py in the main Maya window. Depending on the type of chosen installation all files will be created and placed automatically. Also a log file will be created documenting the installation.

If you need help during the installation see the included installation guide which can also be opened from the installer window.

After the installation restart Maya. The default Deform menus of the main Maya menu bar should now contain the menu items Edit Ramp Weights and Edit Weights Server at the bottom.

Important Note

In some cases it's possible that the script generating the menu items isn't processed upon Maya startup. This leads to the menu items missing. In this case run the MEL command

brWeightsControllerCreateMenuItems

You can also use this command to create a shelf button.
