Title: [App] CoD Model Tools for Maya 2012+
Post by: Aidan on October 18, 2013, 12:48:17 am
VERSION 1.5.1
  + Added CoD4 XModel importing
  + Automatically exports black vertices as white (can disable this in the customization section at the top of the script)
  * Bug fixes

  Due to a bug in v1.5, this update has to be downloaded manually. Sorry! The bug should be fixed in this version though :)



This app exports XModels and XAnims (with notetrack support) from Maya 2012+,  and also has the same rigging and gunsleeve features that are in Treyarch's Maya 8.5 exporter. It can also import XModels from CoD5, and hopefully in future versions XAnims and from other CoDs too.

Note: Please inform me of any bugs found and I'll try to fix them :)

Installation

Note: If you have the old "CoDExportTools" version of this program, make sure to uninstall it first!

1) Download the script below and save it to My Documents\maya\<maya version>\scripts\.
2) In the same folder, create usersetup.mel (if you don't already have one). Add this code to the end of the file:
Code Snippet
Plaintext
python("import CoDMayaTools");
3) Restart Maya

How to use

Everything is under the menu Call of Duty Tools at the top of the main window. Almost every button and object in the dialogs has a Tool Tip (mouse-hover text) that explains what it does, so check those for help.

Great job Aidan! You just made someones day! (not mine because I use the 8.5 version)
If youll make an anim exporter plus notetrack support then we would finally have an alternative to Maya 8.5!

Great, this will help many people who can't get Maya 8.5 but instead the student edition of the latest version  <3 <3

How long did it took to get it working? ;)

This is only for xmodels currently - I don't know if he plans on doing an animation exporter or not.

I meant that it's a step forward to xanim expoting from maya 2013 since with this we have xmodel export. I worded it incorrectly  ::)

Oops, I forgot to remove that line of code lol. I'll fix it soon and post an update. Either way, your getting that error because you didn't select any joints to export.

you can rename m16.VMGun.mb to m16nope.VMGun.mb and Maya will prompt for the file location and you can choose you VMGun file.

Updated to version 1.1!

+ Added feature to switch the gun in a weapon rig file
* Fixed trying to write to the export file before it was created
* Changed the "No joints selected; exporting with a default TAG_ORIGIN." warning to not create a warning dialog after export
* Other small random fixes

I tried running a model through Black Ops 1's Asset Manager after exporting the model with the tool in 2012 64-bit and it came up with this error and doesn't convert the model:
http://prntscr.com/2ya2um (http://prntscr.com/2ya2um)
But if Treyarch's tool for Maya 8.5 is used on the same model, it works fine.

I've seen that error before with WaW (with both Treyarch's and my tool), and I'm not sure what causes it. Either way, the tool was designed for WaW so there are going to be problems when using it for other CoDs.

I just now tested to see if it works with WaW and it doesn't work either, strange though that it works with the Treyarch version of the tool and not yours. Could there be something within the code for verts that makes it non-working?

I'm not sure. None of your surfaces according to that export screen have a tri/vert ratio greater than 8.20144 like it says, so it's probably another one of CoD's cryptic and stupid errors. It could have something to do with bad geometry, though I don't know much about modeling. Try triangulating the model before you export (even though the exporter should do that anyways).

Weird, fixed it by doing Average Normals...

Edit: Actually, it worked when I didn't select any joints for exporting. When I selected the joints and exported it, it gave the error. It also changed the Tri_Vert_Ratio number now from 8.20144 to 8.26087.

Download the update from the download button on the first post. Just replace your old script file with the new one.

Okay, I think I fixed the excessive TRI_VERT_RATIO errors with this exporter. Of course, the error will still happen if something is wrong with your model, but it should happen less often now. :)

Download the 1.3 update to get the fix.

In your "My Documents\maya\<maya version>\scripts\" folder, check to see if you have a file called "usersetup.mel". If you don't have it, create it. (Make sure you don't accidentally name it usersetup.mel.txt if you have "hide extensions for known file types" enabled.) Open it with Notepad (not WordPad) or some other script editor and add this line to the end of the file:

Code Snippet
Plaintext
python("import CoDExportTools");
The "CoDExportTools.py" script you downloaded should go in the same folder as the usersetup.mel, but you don't need to change anything in it.

Once you do all that, restart Maya and if you did it correctly you should see a "Call of Duty 5 Tools" menu at the top of the main window.

I edit an anim and looks fine in the editor, and when I export it to xanim_export and convert it with assetmanager it doesnt work ingame, then i reconvert with tom's anim tools back into a tanim, the animation is lost.

1. Edited a viewmodel ads_up anim, looks fine in maya.
2. Selected everything and exported to xanim at 30FPS from frame range 0-12
3. Converted in assetmanager unchecking "use bones" and setting to relative, setting the xanim and xmodel
4. Compiled, animation doesn't work.
5. Reconverted with toms xanim tools.
6. Loaded the animation in maya, there is no animation, but still 12 frames.

Why is this happening? D:

Edit: I tried importing an anim and exporting it through maya without editing anything, and it glitched my anim, once again, no animation, like its exporting a anim file with no animation, even though there is clearly animation. D:

Edit2: Solved.

Thanks :)
I think you can change the material name by selecting an object using that material, and then in the Attribute Editor go to the material tab and changing the name in the text box. The ":" probably means you have two separate materials with the same name, I would guess (":" and "|" are Maya's DAG path separators), so make sure each material has a unique name. I'm not very good with Maya, sorry.

does it work for 2015?

I've only tested up to 2014, but it probably works.

Just updated to Version 1.5, with some cool new features :D The tools can now import CoD5 models, including the skeleton rig and can add IK Handles on character models. I also added an IWI to DDS converter, and the script will auto update now.

For future versions, I'm planning to add in XAnim importing, and then add in support to import models/anims from CoD4 and from FastFiles.

The name of the project changed from CoDExportTools to CoDMayaTools, so you need to uninstall the previous version first before installing the new version! (Just change the name of the file in your usersetup.mel file to the new name.)

Well right now it only supports CoD5, but I'm working on adding support for other CoD games. If you want it to use another root folder, you can use the "Set Root Folder" button in the menu.

Tried doing it but since your tool reads default folder and actually adds 'xmodel'/'xanim' to the folder path it breaks.

Tried doing it but since your tool reads default folder and actually adds 'xmodel'/'xanim' to the folder path it breaks.

For exporting, it exports the .xmodel_export or .xanim_export the wherever the save path is. For importing, it uses the path "<given root folder>/raw/(xmodel, xmodelsurfs, xmodelparts, images, materials)". A single model uses info from 5 different folders, so having it base the path on the current root folder is easiest. If the root folder given doesn't have those folders, it won't be able to import a model. Any CoD root folder has those folders, but right now the tool will only work for CoD5 models, so you shouldn't be using it for any other CoD games anyways.

Updated to version 1.5.1, which adds CoD4 model importing, and some bug fixes. Due to a bug in version 1.5, this update cannot be downloaded through the auto-updater, and you will have to download it manually (just replace the existing script with the new one).

It only works on CoD5 guns, sorry.

Edit: If you are trying to port a mw2/BO gun to WaW, yes that is possible with this tool but I'm not sure what your problem is. (I should probably learn how to model and animate....)

Script seems to work, but source looks terrible. You have to read about structs at least. It's just a pain to see avoiding OOP in languange that mostly rely on it.

Sorry :/ This is pretty much my only Python project, and I'm not very familiar with OOP in Python. I could try to learn Python OOP and apply it to this project in a future update, if I get bored sometime :P

It's simple as it is.

Just make class and put vars in it like:
Code Snippet
Plaintext
class <MyClass>():
    <var1> = <val1>
    ... etc
then just use it <MyClass>.<var1>

for structs it's pretty simple:
Code Snippet
Plaintext
class <MyStruct>():
    def __init__(x, y, z):
        self.<any_name> = x
        ....

Is that only for Maya 2015, or for all versions? The normals are determined by the order of the vertices, so I might be loading them backwards, or Maya 2015 might have a different vertex order.

Yes when i open up my  usersetup.mel it reads:   python("import CoDMayaTools");

The old plugin CoDExportTools works for CoD1 version.

What i was trying to do is see if i can converte cod5 animations to be used with cod1 character models.

Hello members of UGX,

   I'm trying to get the CoDMayaTools to work on Maya 2012 x64. Just as the other people have posted before me. I do what the tutorial says to do but I don't see any button at the top of Maya.

Any help would be appreciated. I am new to Maya so maybe do I have to enable it in the window?

I'm not sure what's wrong, what you did should be working. But try this:

In Maya, go to the top menu bar: Window > General Editors > Script Editor
In the Script Editor window, at the bottom half of the window click the Python tab.
In the textbox below, type import CoDMayaTools. Press the blue SINGLE arrow at the top of the window.
If it worked, the Call of Duty Tools menu should appear in the main Maya window. If it didn't work, there will probably be an error message in the log on the top half of the Script Editor window.

If it didn't work, in the Script Editor window bottom half (in Python tab!) copy the following code:
Code Snippet
Plaintext
import sys
sys.path.append("<path to scripts folder>")
import CoDMayaTools
Replace the <path to scripts folder> with the path to your scripts folder (where the usersetup.mel is), but for each slash use TWO backslashes. For example, mine would look like this:
Code Snippet
Plaintext
sys.path.append("C:\\Users\\Aidan\\Documents\\maya\\2012-x64\\scripts\\")
Again, press the single blue arrow button at the top of the Script Editor and if it worked, the Call of Duty tools menu should appear.

Both of those are temporary fixes, and you would have to do them every time you start Maya. Tell me if either of them works, and I'll try to figure out a permanent fix :)

That is very strange, the error doesn't make any sense. Try going to the MEL tab and putting in python("import CoDMayaTools"); , and then run it with the same arrow button. If you get still get the same error, I hate to say it but you might want to try reinstalling Maya. The error your getting is an indentation error, but the indentation is perfectly fine, which might mean something is wrong with Maya's Python.

I haven't tested it in Maya 2015, so I'm not sure it works. I asked someone who has maya 2015 if he can test it, so I'll tell you what he finds when he tests it. But it sounds like you messed up your usersetup.mel, I'm not sure what you did wrong though.

Looks like something is wrong with his UV map, because the error is happening when it tries to get the UVs off of a poly. I have no idea how to UV map stuff in Maya, so I'm not really sure how to fix that, sorry. Maybe try redoing them?

I've exported other parts of it (scaled up cylinders and the perk bottle model) and they worked fine being able to be put into APE. I've been trying for almost 2 days to fix this but I can't. Anyone now how to properly export custom models?
