Maya Particle importer for Grasshopper

I have created a new definition for grasshopper that will import particle animations from Maya into grasshopper. Right now I only import two attributes, position as point and velocity as a vector. The script is open and easy to add any property you want to carry over. The idea behind the function is to use Maya ability to create “smarter” point cloud using forces and AI.

You can find the download and instructions on my site www.cerver.org

here is a VIDEO

Hi,

I also did not add rgbPP, maya automatically creates it. I follow each step that is needed but with the output there is a problem that I dont understand. Can you help me?
