I also loved this video.

It clarified a lot to me, like where the hell Maya shows the Global Transforms.... it doesn't.

hey, GREAT News!

I was already looking forward to buy these. thanks!!

Hi.

It's been a while but I have just revived my Legolize compound and felt like sharing with the community...
Here's the post :: http://edschiffer.com/2013/03/legolize_02/

great compound, Guillaume, thanks!

just one thing: the Animated parameter is checked on the scene and on the compound, so the instances keep changing.

the compound will be great useful to use Momentum on meshes generated from pointclouds.

awesome renders, making of and promotion of your work and Octane!
kept as wallpapers

thanks for sharing, Andy!

maybe there could be a web service for converting CG files... much like http://www.filespazz.com/ converts Corel .cdr files back to .ai for free.

I'm thinking if a particle finds 26 particles inside the given bounding box, then mark it... maybe testing if a particle finds others in +X, -X, +Y, -Y, +Z and -Z would also work, but this way any offset in the rows wouldn't probably work. thx for taking the time, Stephen. this issue is the only thi...

Stephen, this is a good compound, I'll keep it close, but actually doesn't solve what I had in mind: see, it's not always going to be a cube, but any geometry. it's actually a better "hollow" mode for my Legolize compound , to transform geometry into Lego bricks... so I used a modified Gen...

I tried time.sleep(), but it only slowed down the opening, as you mentioned...
tried putting the .OpenView under a loop too, but got the same results.

OK, at least it's good to know it's not only a slip of mine...

Hi all, I'm learning python and as an exercise, I'm trying to make a script that opens the Render Tree of the Current Pass, without losing the current selection. so far it goes: app = Application sel = app.Selection curSel = [] for obj in sel: curSel.append(obj) app.SelectObj(app.GetCurrentPass()) a...

hey Stephen what I want is to mark which particles are inside the 3d grid, so I can delete them and have a shell of remaining particles. the thing is that when the particles are cubes, the cutoff distance of Get Closest Neighbors works great, because I test if they find 8 neighbors within a known ra...

Hi all

I started this thread on XSI Base, but it is still kinda hard to find the answer: http://www.xsibase.com/forum/index.php? ... adid=46119

the desired result is a flag on every inside particle, so I can delete it afterwards.
thx if anyone can give a help.

don't know if people are aware of this, but try the following:

. get a circle
. turn it to a mesh via Model> Create> Poly.Mesh> Curves to Mesh
. change Tesselation to Medial Axis

you'll get this =( :
