Hi there,

I am trying to recover an old maya scene from about 5 years ago in which I used Ornatrix, I believe my license covers until Maya 2020.
I was wondering if there is an updated script for Maya 2026 to delete any Ornatrix nodes present in the scene?

I have followed the steps outlined in this article, but there still seems to be some nodes hidden somewhere:
https://ephere.com/plugins/autodesk/maya/ornatrix/docs/4/Removing_Ornatrix_from_a_Scene.html

I have installed the demo version so that I can at least save new versions of the Maya scene.
When attempting to unload Ornatrix plugin, I get these messages:


Any help is appreciated, thank you.

The script in the docs page assumes that Ornatrix wasn't installed and loaded when you open the scene, so all Ornatrix nodes appear as "unknown".

In your case you have installed the demo version, so once you load the scene you should manually delete all objects of type HairShape from the scene. And also run that 'OxInstallRenderCallbacks( 0 )' MEL command.

I suppose you could modify that script to remove HairShape (or any other types of) objects automatically by replacing "unknown" in the type parameter with "HairShape". But maybe it's better to do it manually.
