Convert Motion Path To Ncurve

[mikedin]

I'm looking for a script (didn't find one here while searching) that will allow me to convert a motiontrail node to a curve.
short of making snapshots and clicking on them, there should be a more elegant way to get that info from Maya to make a nurbs curve from the drawn motion path.

Thanks,

Sure,

make motion trail select it (or as many of them as you like) and run this:

CODE
{
$list=ls -dag -sl -et snapshotShape;
for ($item in $list){
  $pts=getAttr ($item+".pts");
  int $len=size($pts)/4;
  $crv = curve -d 1 -p ($pts[0]) ($pts[1]) ($pts[2]) -k 0;
  for ($i=1;$i<$len;$i++)
    curve -os -a -p ($pts[$i*4]) ($pts[$i*4+1]) ($pts[$i*4+2]) $crv;
}
}
