If you’ve done any animation in Maya you’ve probably used the autoTangent and Tween Machine tools by Michael Comet and Justin Barrett respectively. These two tools have been key elements of my animation workflow for as long long time. However amazing they are, they started to show some limitations as my input data started to scale.
Both the Retime and SmoothTangent functions have hotkey entry points – hotkeys can really help speed up your daily output. I’ve listed them at the bottom.
To install Time Bandit just download the TimeBandit.zip file, unzip and place the .pyc files in your Python path. Use the import sys and sys.path.append commands to define a location.
Once you’ve got that just enter;
import TimeBandit
reload(TimeBandit)
Hotkeys
Smooth Tangent
python (“import trSmoothTangentnreload(trSmoothTangent)ntrSmoothTangent.trSmoothTangent(0.0, 0)”)
Retime
Use positive values for pushing time and negative for pulling. If you have a node selected, but no keyframes selected Retime will pivot off of the current frame.
python (“import trRetimentrRetime.trRetime ( 1 )”
