Install Texelator Core

Edition: Core

Package installation

  1. Download the Core ZIP from its public source/release location.
  2. Extract it to a stable folder that you will not move after installation.
  3. In Maya, drag the extracted install.mel into the viewport.
  4. The installer creates or updates a shelf button named Texelator on the current shelf. If no current shelf is available, the installer uses Custom.
  5. Click Texelator to open the tool.

The installer runs the package directly from its extracted folder. Do not delete or move that folder while using its shelf button.

Python console launch

import importlib
import Texelator

importlib.reload(Texelator)
Texelator.show_ui()

Update

Extract the newer Core package, run its install.mel, and use the updated Texelator shelf button. The installer searches for the existing Texelator button on the current shelf and updates it.

Removal

Delete the Texelator shelf button manually, then remove the extracted package folder when no Maya shelf command still points to it. No dedicated uninstaller is provided.

Note

The repositories do not provide a Maya modules-folder, scripts-folder, or .mod installation method. TODO: Confirm this information before adding alternative installation instructions.
