Have your tried reset pivot?
I don't have an late enough version of Soft installed. Can you send as a

I'm getting this error sometimes in my scene, I have a lot of cached

It's only throwing the error when the object is visible so that's a start.
It would just be nice if it told me which object!

Hi
I am trying to export a charactor rigged with Gear to Unity 3d, and having
issue now.
Because FBX diesn't support implicit object, i get a lot error messages.
Message show me to convert implicit dara to geometry, but don't know how.
I like to try baking animation data, and export with FBX
Check there is not a neutral pose set.

What is not in the origin? the center or the manipulator?
The manipulator is aligned with the pivot, not the center.
Is your model node also frozen?

You can use a command to convert the implicit to real geometry - I
tested it and it works fine here and keeps animation - I did not check
constraints etc..
Application.Convert(MeshSurface, 'torus' )
This converts an implicit torus called torus to an equivalent mesh.

I'm not using cache manager so I guess that doesn't apply?..
I've made a compound that gets a string from a property on the model (which
is the path of the cache files), add's that to a string of the object name
and pipes that to the cache on file node. Then I apply that compounds to
loads
I have done this before and the best way is to :
1. Plot all your deformers (I am assuming that deformers are nulls, as they
should be always).
2. Remove all the rig elements (except the deformers ).
3. Export the FBX.
This should work in unity.

Is there any way to make the render region non-opaque? I'd like the render

Is that possible?

I'm at home now, and opened your scene in SI 2014.
You're using Pivot and Pivot Compensation. That's why you are having
awkward results with Freeze SRT. You need to reset the pivot before Freeze
SRT it.
Open Your Local Transform properties, look for Pivot, and preset Reset
Pivot.

I tried that but apparently I don't understand what that is for. The alpha is

Hi Steven,
I tried to use PySide together with your PyQt4XSI plugin last year and managed
to get your basic demos running after replacing some lines of code (I think it
was mostly the import statements changed to point at PySide.blah instead of the
PyQt ones). No real problems I can remember,
Personally I request it in my head many times some years ago :). I'm too
