Here’s a duplicate and match transforms script. Right at the end of class today someone was asking for a way to replace their stack of cups with a newly textured cup. I came up with this. He’ll still need to delete or hide the old cups, but this will match the cups transforms and preserve the inputs for each cup.
Note: there are far better methods I’ve created since this was posted. Search for Matching and Neutral pose scripts for more information.
