I just got done watching the Alias Wavefront "Rigging a Characters face" video, and WOW, I'm again jazzed to continue my Maya education and work.
I was impressed with a MEL script the speaker wrote and used during the video, called AttrCollection or Attribute Collection.
It's an old script, but still seems to work in Maya 4.5. Does anyone know of a newer, or better MEL script that accomplishes the same thing?
If you are not familiar with the script, you should definitely check it out. It builds a panel for you, that can fill one of your viewports. Then it allows you to add any attribute to it, so you can build your own window of sliders. It REALLY helps speed up modeling and animating, as you're able to access any character attribute, say a jaw rotation, without leaving your current tool. Very helpful.
Anyway, I was curious if there were similiar tools or scripts out there, as it is a pretty OLD script.
