Replace identical Geometrys with Instances (Maya / Pyhton)

This Script compares the local component-positions of polygon and nurbs objects in a scene. On a 100% match between two shapes it replaces the second one with an instance of the first one.

Create Joints On A Curve (Maya / Mel)

This Script creates tangent-constraint locators on each cv  of a selected curve. A single joint is parented under each locator. The script is nice to create secondary deformation layers to a rig.
