I maintain a library of CRYENGINE python Editor scripts I use to do my job at Entrada Interactive working on Miscreated. It has a lot of very useful functions that I've automated or found really needed.

If you need help with a specific script don't hesitate to shoot me a line.

Check out the GitHub Page or the download!

All of these scripts can be run by going to View → Open View Pane → "Python Scripts" and then select the script and click execute (or double click the script). Some scripts may have dedicated toolbars which you can find by right clicking on the toolbar and Choosing the appropriate toolbar as documented below

Start Recording

Starts capturing frames and plays a trackview at the same time

Stop Recording

Stops an playing trackview and stops any capturing of frames
