Very useful script! Some comments: 1. Maya 8.5 scripts are now located at /Users/Shared/Autodesk/maya/8.5/scripts 2. Save script as "Best Guess" without an extension. STL extension will automatically be created. Check Scale. Alternatively, use .MA Format, but erase extension and name "desiredName.stl". Scale might be more accurate. 3. ***CAUTION** Some Scale problems possible. Script seems sensitive to units and SaveAs Format settings. No errors with Units set to CM and SaveAs format set to .MA in popup. Simply highlight default "untitled.ma" and rename "desiredName.stl". When process repeated (units = cm) with SaveAs format as BestGuess (leaving extension blank, such as "desiredName" without any extension) the file reimported approximately 1/2 the size. When repeated (units=inches), file re-imported about 1/25 smaller using BestGuess format without any extension. Other variables may affect scale, so be sure to check results!

Does anyone know how this might function with Maya 2010? The file system for it (and on a Mac, no less) is different than specified, but I am curious about its ability to work with 2010.
