Sounds like frikking incompatibility issues on the OS (win 10) C++ core
libraries (Visual Studio 2015 just jammed my SI 2014 some days ago)..
Wouldn´t be that surprised...

Hi Stephen,

The .log gives me a [Argument to a function is bad] and a [An item is not
found] error in .cpp files.

I'm clearing out + reinstalling again, anything I should be deleting before
reinstallation that could help here?

Thanks for helping

Did you check %TEMP%\SoftimageLicense.log ?
Maybe your license was zapped, or maybe it's the pit file.

Bit of a problem here. I had Soft 2010 running on a win 8 laptop.
Since the Windows 10 upgrade it now tells fails to start with 'no

Re: correcting shapekeys

[Oscar Juarez]

If I understand correctly you already have some shapes correcting
deformation for example on the arms, and now you want to add another shape
that corrects something in the mouth, and when you try to save this shape,
it is wrong because also includes the shape correcting the arms?

If you install gear, there is a very nice script, that lets you select some
points and a blend shape and lets you remove the shape contribution of
those selected points so you isolate only the part that you actually need.

correcting shapekeys

[wavo]

Hello Hardcore-Softies

i need some help  with correcting existing shapes on an enveloped character.
What I did so far: some shapes, some of them  linked to rotation values 
(bones) of the rig.
These already correct the envelope deformation. Now I want additional 
shapes which will correct the resulting shape, in this case when the 
mouth is open.
What I tried: changing the rotation of the mouthbone to the desired 
deformation (mouth is open) then set the value of the shape in this case 
"smile" to 1, then switching to secondary-mode make some move component 
to correct the geomety and after that I store a Shape key.
But unfortunately this new shape i not correct because this shape stores 
also the existing deformation inside but i want only the new move 
components!
Shape Preferences -reference is set to Local Relative, rest is default 
Softimage.


ps. I also tried this:  shape and envelope-deformation with desired 
values, than in secondary changing the geometry ,mute the animationmixer 
-apply shapekey , moving this new shape from the mixer/source/shape 
inside the animationmixer than the movecomponent will be automatical 
deleted, and i have the shape only with the new changes , its working 
but now the shapemanager "says" that this feature is not supported! I 
can only link the shapes oldschool via the animationmixer! now dear 
reader you would say "wtf! this is already the solution! copy this shape 
and paste it to your original setup scene then you have it!" but maybe 
there is a better way?!


In short. correcting existing shapes with adding a new shape.

Re: Particle volume rendering problem

[Chris Marshall]

Hi Sven,
You know, when I read your original post I was thinking your problem
sounded familiar. From what I remember it took me ages to figure out that
it was the Surface Deform node, which is so weird to cause a render issue
like this.

Cheers

Chris
