[ RELEASED ] Self-Updating Rigging Script

Hey!

So I've made a rigging script that is better than my other rigging scripts, this script downloads rig definitions from a JSON file I am hosting on a website. This means that I can add support for new rigs, fix existing rigs etc without you having to download a new py file each time.

This script currently supports L4D2 models and Alien Swarm models which were not compatible with the standard biped rig. More models will be added over time.

Keep track of the supported models HERE[sfm.jimbomcb.net].

Installation Instructions

Drop the .py file into your "SourceFilmmaker\game\platform\scripts\sfm\animset" folder, it will now be available in the animation set rigging menu.

Download

https://raw.github.com/jimbomcb/SFM_Rigs/master/rig_automatic.py

You can keep track of the git repo at https://github.com/jimbomcb/SFM_Rigs/

Hey guys, me again. The recent SFM update broke the script, specifically creation of the rig grouping. It's all fixed though so be sure to download the latest script[raw.github.com] and replace the rig_automatic.py already existing. The script should also be functioning for SFM Roshan & Greevil.
