The “Lightcraft Take Transforms Import” tool is used to update all the “edit_” objects in your scene that were modified on stage during a take.


How to Load

  2. Now Execute the Script with the “execute” command

    How To Use

    1. Press the “Locate transforms.txt” button. This will load the .txt file into memory and activate the “Apply Transform” button.
      • Because of a bug in the new File Loading widget in Maya, pressing the “Load” button will ask if you want to overwrite the selected file. Disregard this warning and hit “yes.”
    2. The “Transform path” text field will now show the selected .txt file
    3. Press the “Apply Transforms” button and Voila!
