Export & Import Skin Weights Script

Maya python script that Exports-Imports skin weights of selected geometries, It exports a txt file with a list of joints and its skin cluster per object selected, then you can import that information back in a different file, or in the same file if you want to tweak the joints position or to make adjustments to the rig setup or just have a backup for the skin weights. It's a total lifesaver.

Copy the text in the file on your Maya script editor and run it from there

This script has been tested in Maya 2019+

Only select the path to save-load the files, select the geometries, and export-import. that's it.
