Guide Creator Plugin for Maya  

Guide Creator is a commercial third-party tool for Autodesk Maya designed for fast guide curve generation using direction controls, and procedural modifiers.

The workflow is based on guide groups. You create a group on a selected mesh, place guide roots with Plant, define the flow with Direct, adjust lift and volume with Lift, refine the result with the profile graph and modifiers, and then convert the generated guides into regular Maya curves.

Guide Creator is built for character artists, groom artists, and technical artists who need a fast and controllable way to create guide curves inside Maya.
