PIPO STANDALONE - By Quazar

A Standalone pipeline manager for Autodesk Maya that include features of project customization:

(Features to come)

• 3D Scenes filenames
• Folder structures
• Exporting process
• Shading networking

and also others features as:

• Detect performances knobs in Pipeline and give solutions scripts to fix them
• Creation of asset library on the computer through projects (even old projects)
• Real time monitoring of the project you are working on
• Share assets between projects you worked on before

Important

To create the visual side of that application I am using a library called Textual, which will allow you to merge the flexibility that a Console can give you, while using the same widgets you are used to.
