Create a whole dcc on top of a proprietary closed source product that
can disappear or be trashed at any time ? Are you kidding ? Will you
ever learn ?
I guess loosing Softimage was not enough for you ? Or you simply don't
care ?
I still do. For a long time.
Cheers,
Guy.

Il don't see the need to expose the core either, you can already
create a whole dcc by yourself. You can extend the Splice standalone
and add as many feature as you want. You can add/derive/modify all the
KL objects. You can draw whatever you want in modern opengl and
interact with the objects in the viewport. Integrate. c++ libraries
and finally customize the ui with QT.
What would you like to do by changing the core?

Hot shit this stuff looks cool, just make a DCC already :P
Na i get why that can't be a priority right now, still all
this awsome...
We are hungry for more i'm sure :) so congrats to all and to
you Paul.

Great job guys!
I'm very interested especially regarding the DeltaMush
modifier, looks fantastic!
Very interesting is the Blendshapes rig...about that I'm
thinking that the debugging of the blendshape could be
used for realtime deformation ( displacement or wrinkle
maps ) that triggers automatically ( ala Facerobot but
much quicker ).
I'm still not familiar with Fabric Engine so pardon my
questions but:
- Regarding the captain atom rig, if I understood
correctly you are able via Alembic to bake all the
deformation you setup with the Rigging Toolbox and then
via script apply those deformation on the source mesh
itself, right? so, after I did all the deformations I want
I can simply bake those deformations with a script and
then export the rig itself in FBX and those deformations
are baked in, right?
- Same question, but related to tge blendshape rig...at
22.10 the locator is described as a container which holds
the geometry, but there's no actual geometry in the
scene...in this case how the export in FBX would work?
Cheers guys, this looks awesome!

Hi Guy - no, we're not planning to open-source the
core. Thanks for the analysis of our client base and
users ;)

Hi Paul,
Still no plan to make the Core open sourced
(perhaps dual licensed ala Oracle) and available
to open sourced projects ?
I see you are now in need for more users/clients,
perhaps this could be the right time ?
Cheers,
Guy.

(X-Post from 3DPro)
Hi everyone - something that has come up a few
times with customers has been 'can you give us
some sample deformers written in KL for us to get
started?'. The Rigging Toolbox is our pass at
doing just that: a public repo where people can
see how we've approached things like delta mush
(is it too late to be considered part of the DM
hype train?) and contribute back their own work
if they want to.
video here: https://vimeo.com/114272905
website + link to repo:
http://fabricengine.com/rigging-toolbox/
"The Rigging Toolbox provides a collection of
production relevant tools that can be used when
building character pipelines using Fabric Engine.
These tools can be used as is, or purely as
reference as you build your own implementations.
Recently we have added a suite of deformers and
are now working on leveraging our GPU compute
capabilities with these deformers."
The rigging toolbox works in Maya, Max and
Softimage with our Splice plugin, so this all has
the usual Fabric benefits of encapsulation and
portability. As we move to visual programming
next year, this work will all be compatible there
as well.
Last infomercial piece:
http://fabricengine.com/get-fabric/ Fabric is
free for individuals and we're giving 50 free
licenses to studios, which helps when you're
hoping people will contribute to a project like this.
Thanks,
Paul
