Thanks Holdger! Your shaders have been
  used much more than you think!
  
  And since these are postcardware, have you consider putting on the
  main page you referenced a promenent link 
  (perhaps a dedicated email link that doesnt involve registering?)
  to send things?
  
  Thanks again, for me your shaders (including various breadcrums)
  continue to come in handy, and have more times than I can
  remember!
  Cheers,

Re: scripting Weights

2016-03-07 Thread Martin Yara

Hi Matt,
thanks for your response.

That trick didn't work for me.

I'm using 2014 and VBScript.

I'm doing something like this:

set myEnvelope = oObj.Envelopes.Item(0)
aWeights = myEnvelope.Weights.Array

' Round Weights in aWeights

myEnvelope.Weights.Array = aWeights
FreezeObj envelopeProperty

for each def in myEnvelope.Deformers
SIModifyFlexEnvWght envelopeProperty, def.name, oObj+ ".pnt[*]", 2,
0, False
next

But the weights are still the same.
Am I doing it wrong?

Martin

Re: scripting Weights

2016-03-07 Thread Matt Lind

You've uncovered a known bug that exists in the last several versions of 
Softimage.  At least 2012 and later.

You have to make a 2nd pass over the weights by iterating over the deformers 
and calling SIModifyFlexEnvWght() and add 0% weight value.  This will kick 
Softimage to wake up and honor the values you set.

Message-ID:

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"

I wrote a tool to round weights decimals but I'm still having decimals.

I get the weighs with :

Obj.Envelopes(0).Weights.Array

Round them and put them back with

myEnvelope.Weights.Array = roundedWeights

But when I check my weights after that I'm still having decimals like:
0.30011920929
14.198092651
58
27.5

And my roundedWeights array is just like I want them:
0.3
14.2
58
27.5

I successfully did it in Maya disabling the Normalize property, but I can't
get it to work in Softimage. Is there any way to do this?

scripting Weights

2016-03-07 Thread Martin Yara

I wrote a tool to round weights decimals but I'm still having decimals.

I get the weighs with :

Obj.Envelopes(0).Weights.Array

Round them and put them back with

myEnvelope.Weights.Array = roundedWeights

But when I check my weights after that I'm still having decimals like:
0.30011920929
14.198092651
58
27.5

And my roundedWeights array is just like I want them:
0.3
14.2
58
27.5

I successfully did it in Maya disabling the Normalize property, but I can't
get it to work in Softimage. Is there any way to do this?

Thanks

Martin
