Download Generick v1.1 for Maya 6 (~500kb rar)
UPDATE 6.30.05 – Fixed some bugs/cleaned house
UPDATE 6.3.05 – Line of Action control re-enabled!
Generick Features:
- Intuitive control system (puppet mesh)
- Robust facial animation modeled on-top of JasonO’s book: Stop Starring
- Embedded dependency files – open him on any maya and you’ll have what you need to work – every time.
- ijConstrain – a thoughtless way to add constraints to the head, waist, arms.

Generick is still under active development. Want a feature lemme know and I promise I’ll see what I can do!
Notice Generick is not compatible with scripts packaged with Generi. Solution -> Generi 1.2.1 by Ian Jones please rename/delete the zooTriggered.mel, zooTriggeredUtils.mel that came with Generi from your scripts directory (mydoc/maya/6.0/scripts) to fix.
