Done for Mitsubishi by Studio Nitro

I did this with my friends Marcos Nicacio and Lucas Ribeiro, for Casa Pixel

Federação Internacional de Automobilismo

This project was great not only to test a few ideas but also to gather feedbacks in general. Here´s a rigging demo showing what I got so far:

I´ve been researching cartoony systems and deformations for a long time, so I´ve decided to put this RnD video online:

Now it´s time to optimize and start coding my auto rig inside 3dsmax :)

I´ve got inspired to develop my own 3D dolly/crane/steady camera rig after looking at some real-world references. Here is the result:

v1.0 | 28.08.2011 rp_CameraRig: 3dsmax 2011

v1.2 | 24.09.2011 rp_CameraRig: Maya 2011

v1.1 | 19.09.2011 rp_CameraRig: XSI 2011

NOTES

1. Please tag rp_CameraRig into your animations/videos/wtv or send me links. Would be lovely to see what you guys have been doing with it.
2. This rig is free for personal use, studios or companies should contact me first before using it.
3. Feel free to drop me any suggestions, comments, ideas or anything else.

Enjoy ;)

I´ve done this maxscript inspired on Maya´s Local Rotation Axis [1, 2, 3] that able 3dsmax users to quickly ajust any node(s) pivot(s) orientation.

Description:
Version – 1.5
Installation – Evalute the .ms (CTRL+E) or run it (Maxscript > Run Script…).
It is found under Category > RenatoPolimeno > rp_LRA

Here is my attempt based on two usefull Maya procedures: Jason Schleifer´s js_hashRename.mel and the standard Search and Replace tool.

Description:
Version – 0.3
Installation – Evalute the .ms (CTRL+E) or run it (Maxscript > Run Script…).
It is found under Category > RenatoPolimeno > rp_RenameTools
Check out the Online documentation for any further help.

rp_TurboSmoothManager is a maxscript I wrote. Use it to quickly ajust any turbosmooth modifier property on scene nodes at once.

Description:
Version – 1.1
Installation – Evalute the .ms (CTRL+E) or run it (Maxscript > Run Script…).
It is found under Category > RenatoPolimeno > rp_TurboSmoothManager

While ago I was watching a 3dsmax Masterclass called The Secret World of Scripted Manipulators by Borislav Petrov and I got really inspired to write this tool which is a scripted-gizmo node based on the simple manipulator class but looking similar to spline shapes.

Description:
Version – 5
Installation – Copy the .ms file to the userstartupscripts folder (alternative path that should be used) and restart Max. It is found under Create > Helpers > Manipulators > CTRL.
