All of these python scripts to generate stairs just outright not working at all. On script editor, when I click execute it didn't do anything as in nothing happened, not even error (except for the 2nd code which spits out // Error: Line 2.19: Invalid use of Maya object "object". error when I move it from Python tab to MEL. Oh by the way, I found the 2nd code from this post whereas the 1st one was from here). Saving it as a .py file and putting it on the scripts folder on Documents\Maya didn't do anything. Drag and dropping the .py file directly to Maya didn't do anything.
And also I don't know how is there a Scripts menu on this video as well, but mine just outright not having it. Did I missed something here? Do I have to install Maya Devkit or something like Devkit + PyCharm combo? Or is it just minor mistake in the code?
