By December 18, 2013No Comments

Every wanted to see a thumbnail preview of files you are browsing through from an open dialog box in Autodesk Maya? -Ya, me too. Well, now with Peter Walters’ Maya Model Import Browser & Icon Tool you can.

The Maya File Import Script can create previews for many of Maya’s importable formats, including its own .ma and .mb files.

UI shows you all the importable files that Maya will accept in a directory

The Maya Model Import Browser & Icon Tool offers a little suer interface that shows all the files that can be imported into Maya, saving you the hassle of going back and forth from Maya and the finder to look at what you have on disk and what you want to open.
