Error on Maya Animation and Rigging Toolset MacOS

Development Programming & Scripting

Hello,

I am having an error using the ART. It occurs when I try to go from Skeleton Placement to Deformation Setup. The following is the error that comes up and I am kicked back to Skeleton Placement.

Naming Conflict
[Errno 1] Operation not permitted: ‘/Users/Shared/UnrealEngine/4.10/Engine/Extras/Maya_AnimationRiggingTools/arttoolsosx/MayaTools/General/ART/system.DS_Store’.
Aborting Operation. Please correct naming conflict and try again.

I am using the version from release 4.10 and I am using Maya 2015 Student Version. I have had the tools working for me before but I recently wiped my computer and reinstalled Maya. Does anyone know why this may be happening?

The OSX version of the tools is actually a community member’s conversion and isn’t maintained in-house unfortunately (we don’t use Macs in our production environment). You may want to get in touch via his github page and see if he can help out:
