I am having the same problem as Arkadius was having. I have sourced the script in the usersetup.mel but I am still getting the error message whenever I try to access the local tools or it's menu box from the modify>Local Tools:
// Error: "$PivotSettings" is not an array.
Any idea what I may have done wrong? Thank you so much!
I'm not having any luck with this either. Did what Tomas above suggested, creating a userSetop.mel with
source HKLocalTools;
Both HK mels scripts are in there too....
Maya 2011 on Windows 7 64bit.
Maybe I'm not adding the right text to my userSetup file?
ANy help would be much appreciated.....
The problem is that Maya 2011 x64 (in my case) does not initialize userSetup.mel when it is located in "\documents\maya\\prefs\" (since maya does not include this location to its MAYA_SCRIPT_PATH).
The solution is simple:
just move your userSetup.mel to "\documents\maya\\prefs\scripts\" directory
or
add "\documents\maya\\prefs\" to your MAYA_SCRIPT_PATH
Help me...When I write down the command on my MEL and when I execute, it shows nothing... I really need this tool to work with.
I use maya 2010 Mac 10.5
I have the same issue as trabi0.
The only odd difference is that it worked once, but when I restarted Maya, I got the error message.
Thank you for your time
Hello
I get this error:
// Error: Cannot find procedure "HKLocalToolsAction". //
I put HKLocalTools.mel file to the local directory Documents and Settings\"Username"\My Documents\maya\"version"\scripts.
and the userSetup.mel ( I didnt have that so created it ) I put to Documents and Settings\"Username"\My Documents\maya\"version"\scripts.
I copied this line: "source HKLocalTools; " I tried it with and without quotationmarks.
and ModObjectsMenu.mel I copied to C:\Documents and Settings\"username"\My Documents\maya\2009\scripts
But for some reason I get that error. Did I do something wrong? I use Maya 2009
If you model with polygons in maya YOU WANT this tool! The others who said Maya can already do this don't get it. Maya supports custom axis with the MOVE tool, but THIS gives you a quick custom axis with ROTATE & SCALE as well! This tool is worth learning. Once you use it, you'll use it all the time... I couldn't go a day without it.
Thank you SO much for writing this. Why the Maya programmers don't include this functionality by default is beyond me...
