We have just finished developing a couple of scripts that we wanted to share with the hope that they can be useful to others.
We are big fans of the light mixer and is already an amazing tool as it stands... we found a few things, however, that could make its usage a bit more efficient and convenient, so we wrote two scripts.
Below is a video showing how they work:
The scripts are attached here.
We have used them already in a few projects and it has been very useful, especially in Nuke, but also to make the process in 3dsmax a bit easier.
If you are installing the python script on nuke you need to add the following lines to your menu.py:
import LightMixer
nuke.menu('Nuke').addCommand('Scripts/Light_Mixer', 'LightMixer.LightMixers()')
nuke.menu('Nuke').addCommand('Scripts/SHuffle_Channels', 'LightMixer.ChMask()')
nuke.menu('Nuke').addCommand('Scripts/Shuffle_All', 'LightMixer.AllChan()')
If you do use it please let us know what you think.
We will hope to post any updated versions and a bit more info in the blog of our website at Moso Studio.
