Blue Pill

/************************************************************************************************************
The Blue Pill
Created Winter 2009
Ryan K Osteen

This version of the script is ment to transform all of your motion capture data from the MotionBuilder to
Massive using Maya's MEL Scripting.

First you will want to import your .fbx data from MotionBuilder and run this script form your script editor.
A new window will appear. Scroll down and click Use Defaults. I have provided names for all of the joints,
if you want to change any of the them feel free the script will work with your changes. Afterwords all you
need to do is click Transform and your done. Export your file and your off to do some sewwt massive with
your motion.

Disclaimer: This script works with Maya versions 2008 Ext1, Ext2, 2009. The fbx information also comes from
otionBuilder 7.5 Ext 2. With a change in software the script might break.

Special Thanks: Kenneth Huff
