mGear 5.3.1
mGear 5.3.1
Compatibility: Maya 2022 - 2027
Enhancements
- Rigbits: Proxy Slicer — Optimized with OpenMaya2 batch weight queries (5-10x faster on production meshes). Added multi-selection support, proper transform lock handling for skinned meshes, and deformer stack compatibility (works with softMod/cluster after skinCluster).
- Shifter: Guide Template Export — Added progress bar during guide template export showing per-component collection progress. No more frozen Maya while exporting complex rigs.
- Shifter: Extract Controls — Fixed child objects leaking into control buffers and instanced/shared shapes (ghost controls) producing empty buffers. Now correctly extracts only NurbsCurve shapes.
- Utilbits: Matcap Viewer — Persist "Apply to All/Selected" mode setting across sessions. Fixed toggle material losing track of applied meshes when in selection mode.
Bug Fixes
- Maya 2027: Fixed mGearWeightDriver.mll failing to load with "The specified procedure could not be found" (Error 127). Fixes #629
