Hey Guys,
Thanks Orlando, as soon as I changes the randomize to a scalar and used a
floor node to convert to integer afterwards I got the behavior I was
expecting.
Simon - yeah its about time I post something, been prowling around the list
for a while now.
cheers,

The latter shouldn't happen, the former would simply be that it's very

Hi Bartek,
See below for our Dev's comments on your script:
His example code is not clear. In first 2 lines, user works with input at line
2 which is mesh. In line 3, he works with outMesh.
Our dev gives the following example:
Primitive prim = ctxt.GetInputValue( 0 );

I think thats pretty common when you look at older software. In the
beginning it's all about new features and making use of new paradigms a
software offers. As it matures and collects features,
people become aware and weary of the small annoying things that might have

Life would so much easier if we had a gold set of standards for procedures and

I must admit I never really liked the painting weights idea. I understand how
it works but Its always worried me that its seems a much more complex system
then should be required. I have always wondered
I only watched the first part of the video but it looked like a pretty standard

If you really want to built up a custom on deformations then a procedural

Hi Eric Cosky,
I would like also to remember that you can apply the Unfold3D plugin to a
Softimage Group containing several objects, it not necessary to merge all
objects in only one polymesh. The possibility to work with Groups allows for
example to create UV maps of a car, without merging

There have been a couple of attempts to establish alternatives to weight
painting, but none of them prevailed.
Before there was weight painting in Maya there was rigid skinning with
special deformers to
enhance the shaping of the mesh in areas around the joints.
Mark Snowswell suggested an

This was to support polymorphism for Custom data type,
similar to how you define a polymorphic port siICENodeDataLong |
siICENodeDataFloat with built-in data types.
For custom types, you can pass in an array of custom types that the port
accepts.

No, the shortcut still points to XSI.bat.
I'm sure it wasn't possible to pin the 2013 icon to the taskbar, but
obviously I'm mistaken, because in can be, by starting SI and

The icons cannot be dragged and dropped to the taskbar, though, 2014 and

Try and see if your region option include track selection. Turn it off and
see if your region is back.
I just had similar behavior happened to me a few days back.
