RE: Particle volume rendering problem

2 options left: Create a geo plane and apply the particle_density shader as input for a gradient mixer. Pick the volume on one of the form the particle_density tabs. Plug the gradient mixer directly into the surface. This should give you a cut of the volume (Do not hide the particle render for

yea years after maya is not even close to what SI have for. years It is like sending interstellar space ship back in time to steam machine engineer to pick it apart and try to recreate something from it.. that is what maya is doing to si now... ᐧ On Fri, Nov 18, 2016 at 8:07 PM, Jonathan

RE: Particle volume rendering problem

Did some more tests and it looks like it's not even the shader. Problem accours also with a standard phong. Interestingly the shape of the cloud changes(!) when rendered with a phong shader. some pics: http://www.imagefront.de/tmp/correct_frame.JPG

Re: Weights Plugin

Something I would like to see as a standard weight painting workflow is to be able to groups weights to rapidly decide which layers are locked and which aren't, so I don't destroy good work I've done so far, by quickly setting up my desired mask. Unlike as of now that I have to lock manually

Re: Weights Plugin

Hey Martin, Good Job! I haven't gone through the code but for performance issue with python, did you think about using `numpy` or perhaps `cython`(to write `C` extensions) or you are already using one of these. - Alok On Fri, Nov 18, 2016 at 8:42 PM, toonafish wrote: >

I finally decided to share the weights tool I've been writing for the last few months. https://vimeo.com/191796419 Everything is in Python and Jscript. I rewrote some commands in JScript to make it faster because Python was like 3 times slower to just get the Weights array. Now that I think

Please reduce the lookup table size of the shader. See "Lookup Table" and "Setting up Lookup table": http://softimage.wiki.softimage.com/xsidocs/particles_shaders_ParticleVolumeICE.htm Holger Schönberger technical director The day has 24 hours, if that does not suffice, I will take the
