- Nuke Start Screen displays a window containing the last seven recent files when opening Nuke;
- You can access it later by going to Edit -> Nuke Start Screen;
Important
This tool is designed to work with 1280x1024 resolution or higher. Otherwise, the window may be cropped.
- Clicking on the folder icon will open the file path in your Explorer;
- If your Nuke file was removed, renamed or deleted, the file path will display as red, and the buttons will be disabled;
How to Install
- Click on the green button and download the zip file;
- Go to your .nuke directory (usually at
C:\Users\%username%\.nuke), and extract the content into a folder;
- Rename the extracted folder to Nuke_Start_Screen;
- Inside the Nuke_Start_Screen folder, you should have all the content inside of it;
- Open the init.py file (if you don't have it, you can manually create one);
- Copy the following code and paste it into your init.py file, then save and close it;
import nuke
nuke.pluginAddPath('./Nuke_Start_Screen')- Now when opening Nuke, it should appear the Nuke Start Screen window;
- Nuke Start Screen was developed in Nuke 12.1v5 and tested in Nuke 15.1v4, so it's designed to work between those Nuke versions;
- It works for commercial and non-commercial versions (except Indie due the Python limitation);
