> a short reply Stop . All halt . Skip the short replies ... please . I spent 2 hours this morning trying to figure out why your script would not run on V5.x , then posted an elaborate mail on those issues I encountered . When you get time , go over all the important points I made , and reply to them , or not , whatever , but please stop these useless 'quick-fire' replies . They completely match your quick-fire .zip files for level of professionalism (low) & frustration (very high) . Secondly , I spent some time on your OpenGL problem , but you don't even have time to ... 1) run RS (V6 demo???) ? 2) build a large sphere ? 3) Change to windows GDi ? 4) hit the render button ? Takes 90 seconds ... MAX ! . Humour me (and help others) Further more , you have mentioned here and in the forum that you are using a V6 demo . This has exasperated me , since I can not find a link to a V6 demo , to test your script with , but you still haven't replied to this issue . This is pure , unadulterated , madness ... A question , "just what the hell is going on here?" . (I throw my hands up and walk away) garry the nursbhelper script runs with V5 and V6, I know that:-) / it doesn't matter if the name of the script is boris becker or nurbshelper or blue sky, it's just a name. In my script I have mentioned the exactly name of the path:-) / everything should be ok., although I would like to know if there a any bugs for V6 with the nurbshelper... the pathline of my machine for my script is nearly equal to your path... see the attached text. / the names of any tools are not important, just if you want to load exactly the file with the right name (save or load)... / nurbshelper 1.61 is only the hint to the adapted version to V6... the document (html) is an old one, correctly, but it should be only a info for my nurbshelper script... sunny greetings to canada:-) / bye, Frank -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: user-list@light.realsoft3d.com Gesendet: 06.01.08 16:40:58 An: <user-list@light.realsoft3d.com> Betreff: Re: frankolinos nurbshelper script fixed - window generating script Hello from sunny California : Bad acid , or an elaborate Chinese Puzzle ? Hang on to your hats as I take us through the current bizzaro-world of java script testing ... Frank : I see you posted on the RS forum "new version 1.61" , but the file you posted to the list was "frankolinos_nurbshelper151_.zip" . This got me thinking , so I tried your zip file (that won't run on my V6) , on V5sp3 . I managed to get this working (fin- ally) and noticed that the toolbar stated it to be 'Frankolinos NurbsCurve Helper XL 1.61B' . In your included Docs you make no mention of 'XL 1.61b' . Anyway , here's what I discovered about the annoying jpeg file problem , as well as the troubles I encountered with this latest version to run . Let's start with the zip file . 1) It needs to be named correctly . 2) It needs an update on the html file (it's 2 years old) 3) The docs need to mention your ... ... _Pro_151_Helix.js 4) When you unzip it , it creates a folder /frankolinos_nurbshelper151_ . Inside THIS folder is the actual folder that a user will need to place in their RS/Scripting Folder in order for your script to run . Notice that the 2 folder names are just slightly diff- erent so as to suck the life out of someone ? In short you need to eliminate the first folder in the zip file . That brings us to the matter of your script's place of residence on our hard drive . V1.61B will not run unless the jpeg file resides in ... :\RS\scripting\frankolinos_nurbshelper151\ The folder _Must_ be named as such , and it must include the .jpeg file there , and only there . Any deviation will result in an error message . However , on my system , I was able to get the script to run if I placed the script in the :\rs\scripting folder , as long as I ran another java script file first (and the jpeg file was where it needs to be) . No idea why that is happening , and maybe it's just my setup (not sure) . Now it's time to mention your previous script ... "Frankolinos Nurbs Curve & Helix Helper Pro V1.51" . The jpeg MUST be in :\RS\scripting\ , or else it will cause problems . You can move the script to it's own folder and it _Might_ run, but don't move the jpeg . These are great scripts that can and have caused a lot of hair pulling and cold sweats , simply because of a few tiny little errors . Once again , it is very important to do all the little things correctly , such as ... - Name the zip file correctly - Update the Docs with each version release - Notify the user about the jpeg hazard - get others to test it out first , as well as yourself I haven't tested the actual functionality of this script so maybe someone else can take the baton and run with it for a while ? Thanks for your great scripts , Frank ! garry > Hang on : > There is no V6 demo there for D/L . > I give up . > Frank , did you get my reply about your rendering problems ? > garry > > I'll D/L the windows demo and try your script . > > garry __________________________________________________________________________ Erweitern Sie FreeMail zu einem noch leistungsstärkeren E-Mail-Postfach!
