Hi,
To use any of these tools download all the
scripts you see appearing in between \" \" and put them in your default Maya script directory. Also you may not need all these scripts for a given tool.
na_addGeoSinglePlaneUI.mel na_addGeoSinglePlaneUI.mel
na_hierarchy.mel na_hierarchy.mel
na_segment.mel na_segment.mel
na_segmentUI.mel na_segmentUI.mel
na_stretchIK_UI.mel na_stretchIK_UI.mel
na_stretchIK.mel na_stretchIK.mel
na_ui.mel na_ui.mel
naGeneral.mel naGeneral.mel
naMath.mel naMath.mel
Also this might be a little helpful for function finding although it is unfinished na_manual v0.pdf
If you find any bugs using these I would appreciate your feedback.
Regards,
Nate
