Hi, I'm using Maya 2022 and I'm getting this error when I drag in the .py file into the viewport: # Error: SyntaxError: file line 219: invalid syntax Any chance you might know how to get the drop window to open? I also tried the "first step" from the documentation page but then I get this error: ...No module named 'flux'
need to deactivate mash network if it disabled(hide) in render layers. Because scene laggy when mash network hide in current layer but work in other. This is significant defect. And need to fix when isolate select some object MASH will need deactivate if mash not in this isolated objects. Softimage have a nice example of this futures.
Ian I see you are (very smartly) using a Mac (sits and waits for riot to begin). How do you manage with the three button mouse? I use smart prefs but it drives my camera nuts. What do you use as a solution for three button mouse?..
Erm, nothing, we just use the OS :) Years ago I used to use a system add on to map copy and paste to the side buttons on my mouse but these days I just use keyboard shortcuts for everything.
Ian Waters well I use the Apple mouse (design snob! 😉) but it drives me crazy. Can I ask which mouse you use as you seem to know your way around Maya, 'reasonably' well! 😉
I have a Microsoft 5 button mouse which they don't make any more (and they're so good they sell for hundreds of pounds second hand) - that aside, our animators seem to really like the, wait for it, 'Deathadder Elite' mouse; though it does have a hideous colour changing LED in it.
how is 2018 stability? I usually wait a year before switching over but 2018 look so juicy. Lots of bugs as usual since its the initial release? Or is it stable?

mash is getting so powerful. it's amazing
Hope you alright! Please drop more videos! AMAZING! I use Maya for architectural Design! Invaluable contents! please share more updated techniques.
What did you click on to get the Explode menu to appear at 2:00?
The examples cant be downloaded at the moment, is there a website issue?
not workin in maya 2019 ???

How do install those API scripts? I get an error saying:
# Error: ImportError: file line 5: No module named flux.core #
Anyone, help me out?
I had same issue, apparently creating a drop window is not supported in maya 2020 and 2019 you need to use 2018
This is awesome!
how I can rotate pieces with explode node individual by axes and along local(component)? now it rotate in global axes and in all XYZ
is that ur reel or ur tease?...
Can this somehow work in Maya 2020? It seems amazingly useful.
I swear, it's like everyone abandoned MASH, I don't get it.

looks like compounds in Si. Will be nice see mash in node editor like softimage ICE nodes with all functions of maya and deformers.
It's there, if you want to use it in the node editor you can, it's just harder :)
Would be cool to be dockable and use that same window for all the scripts just by selecting wich one you want from a list inside the window...
Interesting idea - you'd need to 'register' the scripts somewhere for this to work... Maybe something for the future.
I blurted out "holy shit sack" at work.
Explode node have a great BUG - it breaks clusters of colors or textures on object

Ian Waters so what do you do about panning, zooming and tracking the camera in perspective view without multiple buttons?
Oh I have a three button mouse, but it just works right? Pan, zoom and track with the modifier keys...

The emphasis on 2018 is really bug fixing, there aren't many big new features but there are literally hundreds of bug fixes in it.
that sounds really really good. thanks ian :)
