Hello Lukas I have done something related a couple of weeks ago. I didn't implemented a modifier, instead I implemented a RenderEngine. My engine is written in C++, so I created a C wrapper around it and called from Blender using ctypes [1]. I didn't understand how you are calling your C functions, from what I recall __declspec is just to make your functions available as entry points on the DLL. Anyway I suggest you to take a look at ctypes, because I have successfully use it to call C functions using python from Blender. You can look at my plugin at github[2].
Hope it helps Henrique Jung [1] https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/ctypes.html [2] https://github.com/henriquenj/rendergirl/tree/master/BlenderPlugin On 11 June 2016 at 17:08, Lukas Gersthofer <[email protected]> wrote: > Dear Blender Dev community, > > I encountered a problem while implementing a new modifier.
