Hi, I get this error whenever I run the code, I'm using Maya 2014 64-bit on a Windows 7 64-bit system

# Error: line 1: ImportError: file <maya console> line 1: Bad magic number in C:/Users/Tyler/Documents/maya/2014-x64/scripts\chainCreator.pyc #

    Maya 2014 has a newer version of python: bad magic number error comes when you try to load a script compiled with an older version of python. I've re-compiled the script with Maya 2014 so it should work: just download it again and have fun. ;) If you like my chain script, don't forget to consider a donation.

    Thank you a lot. I've missed the How to use.txt! Great work, it's working perfectly. :)

    Hi Franck, the script comes with a text file with all the instructions to get it work. Maybe you should take a look at it, since you don't have to open the script in the script editor. For further informations about pyc files, read python documentation or search on Google. Cheers, Valerio
