Use this script and any highlighted Tracker4 nodes, will sprout a SplineWarp node with Pins using the tracks and reference frame from the Tracker node. Personally, I've coupled this script with Wouter Gilsing's fabulous W_hotbox, for ease of use. I've found it great for doing skin patches, or any patches really where a general CornerPin track doesn't quite cut it. Think of it as an ultra CornerPin track with up to 99 corners! It's expression-linked so changes to any existing tracks, or to the reference frame, will follow through.

To use this script with W_hotbox, simply save the python script in a location nuke has access to, (for me: .nuke/pythons). When creating a new W_hotbox function, call trackerToPins() externally with:

import KJ_Tracker_to_Pins

KJ_Tracker_to_Pins.trackerToPins()

Feedback would be absolutely fantastic! Especially with testing in previous versions of Nuke.
