If there is, and you have an experience as I have, plan to wait 3-4 months
for your visa / work permit. :\

From what you said you're already setting the pointpositions (aka
deforming), so you have *already* *taken over*. You can set the deformation
to be absolute if your data is absolute and taking the object's transform
into consideration.

Hey,
Lets forget about node transformations, only vertices are being deformed.
If, within an update function I get a geometry like this:
Primitive prim = (CRef)ctx.GetInputValue(0,0);
PolygonMesh mesh(prim.GetGeometry(0,siConstructionModeModeling));
CVertexRefArray outPoints =
If you ignored the stack below it (by e.g. muting all unwanted
operators), you will notice that you are changing the input of your
deform operator. Not what you want, I suppose.
Are you probably looking for freezing all operators below yours? They
will all disappear doing so.
To do so,
The whole idea of the operator stack to have progressive changes. If you
have envelope operator below your custom operator then the point
positions array will return current state after the update from the
envelope operator.
For example, let's say an arbitrary point x in the mesh is at pos A.
Actually it is false, because I got deformed vertices
into my deformer any way. So anything I do inside my operator
is relative to the previous operator in the stack...
Instead, I want to get vertices in world space or in X3DObject space
fed into my deformer. How can I do that ?
W dniu
Yes, I understand it.
The whole point is to bypass this behaviour somehow and get pos A into
the deformer even if it is above envelope operator.

The only way to do it keep your operator lowest in the operator stack.
Other hacky way would be to have duplicate mesh without any operators

operator using user data. But I am not able to understand why would you

What exactly did you mean by that comment, Ed? :-Z
I have created a very basic push deform that deforms a sphere based on the
distance from a null. It works fine as an unsumulated ICE tree as long as
the timeline isn't playing, but once I hit play on the timeline it does
nothing. I've tried moving it to the simulated tree, but it adds to the

Have you still got a simulated stack on there? Just select it and delete it
on the sphere.

if ice has a simulation stack it only processes the modeling stack at the
first frame, then evolves from there.
with no simulation stack the modeling stack is processed from scratch each

If you transform the vectors by the global kine transform of the object
they come from they will be in world space.
Assuming you are reading from another object and getting its point
positions (and those are local) and want their global coordinates the above
step is what you need.

Basically the guy took 24 minutes to explain a 2 minute concept.
The main point is Modo can define the order in which deformers are evaluated to
solve envelope weights, and envelope weights are assigned using 'weight
containers' which are logical assignments of points to deformers. A different
printing wasn't a huge concern in those days as the software sold for nearly
$13,000 USD with about $200 going towards printing and manufacturing materials.
The extra materials acted as a way to help justify the high cost of the
software in the eyes of a pre-internet sales business climate.
Yes Matt. That was what I meant as I didn't know the price of XSI 1.0. Assuming
if it was the price of the current Softimage, then those packaging and thick
copies of printed docs would have constitute to a big portion of the cost price.
On 13 Apr, 2013, at 11:32 AM, Matt Lind
It's a matter of whether you want it simulated for all frame or just the first
frame. And at modeling stack, you could still add operators on top of your
deformer Ice tree or shuffle their orders ;)
