I followed the steps precisely and when I type the name of the file to output and hit save, nothing happens. I'm on a mac running 2011. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Once you save on the scripts folders as mentioned, you just call "mayaExportSTL".
Then open the save dialog without corresponding format, ".stl".
You should directly input stl format file name, like "test.stl"
Script run and you get stl file, "test.stl.mb.stl".
I'm working on Maya 2011 64x with Win 7 pro.
good luck.
starting on line 98 of the code is a error checking loop that at least for me never gets activated. If it were to activate it would explain to add ".stl" once you name your file. Took me a bit to figure that little thing out but once you add ".stl" should work fine. I'm using Maya 2011.
below is the code i mentioned...
string $checkExtension[];
int $numTokens = `tokenize $name "." $checkExtension`;
if($numTokens == 2) {
// check that the extension is right
if($checkExtension[1] == "stl")
{
}else{
$errorMessage = "Please use .stl extension";
}
} else {
// there's no extension, add .stl
$name = ($name + ".stl");
}
