Repository Organization
This repository contains two independent components:
- dnacalib C++ library - used to manipulate DNA files
- dna_viewer python code - used to visualize DNA in Autodesk Maya
Folder structure
- dnacalib - DNACalib source code
- dna_viewer - source code of dna_viewer
- examples - several Python scripts to show basic usage of dna_viewer and the Python wrapper for DNACalib
- lib - pre-built binaries for DNACalib, PyDNACalib, and PyDNA
- data - required DNAs and Maya scenes
- docs - documentation

Examples
To run DNAViewer examples, you must have Maya 2022 installed. To run DNACalib examples, you need Python3.
Lib
Lib folder contains pre-built binaries of the DNACalib library for Windows and Linux. Additionally, a Maya plugin for RL4 is also available.
Linux location
You have to copy or create symbolic links for all .so files in lib:
sudo ln -s ~/dna_calibration/lib/linux/_py3dna.so /usr/lib/_py3dna.so
sudo ln -s ~/dna_calibration/lib/linux/libdnacalib.so /usr/lib/libdnacalib.so
sudo ln -s ~/dna_calibration/lib/linux/libdnacalib.so.6 /usr/lib/libdnacalib.so.6
sudo ln -s ~/dna_calibration/lib/linux/libembeddedRL4.so /usr/lib/embeddedRL4.mll
Note: Change the path ~/dna_calibration
to where dna_calibration
is located.
Data
The data folder
contains example DNA files. We provided two MetaHuman DNA files (Ada and Taro, our first Presets).
Ada | Taro |
---|---|
![]() |
![]() |
Additionally, we added gui
and analog_gui
Maya scenes which are used during
Maya scene assemble.
Furthermore, after_assembly_script.py
is used to organize objects in scene and
connect controls. The ideal setup looks like this:
