Maya Animation Bake World Space

wsBakeTool

v2.0

Converts motion into clean transform keys. Modes: 1) Capture world-space motion from parent hierarchy (same as v1.0), 2) Capture — Finds which joints influence a mesh that moves based on a joint hierarchy and captures the motion of the most dominant joint to a locator. If the mesh is driven by multiple joints, it can optionally calculate the average motion of those joints and temporarily copy it to a locator. Then,the motion from the locator can be baked back onto the original mesh or onto a clean duplicate of it.Result: the same animation, but without joints.

Camera Shake Bake Tool

v.1.0

Overview
This tool analyzes the “Enable Shake” feature applied to a Maya camera and bakes the resulting shake (vibration) effects directly into the camera’s rotate channels.
This converts Maya’s internal shake system into actual camera rotation animation.
