Abstract:
This thesis will demonstrate the process of creating an auto-muscle tool for a bipedal character. As a plugin, Maya Muscle is not fully integrated or supported by MEL commands which is a reason why the MEL script of Maya Muscle is still not available on the Internet. It also takes several steps to assign a muscle to a character. Fortunately, the plugin still uses the MEL scripts to create the User Interfaces and execute the plugin. These MEL scripts are composed of both general and custom MEL commands which allow users to modify them to create a custom tool. The goal of this project is to create a specific tool to speed up the whole process of creating muscles for a bipedal character.
