Hey m thanx for awesome rply :) I see Python handles arrays nicelly, will try to invest more on Python for the future, ill keep using JS till i fugure it out (not too much of a problem yet). One thing that i would like to ask, is how can I name my curve so its not conflicting with the previus one ge...

Hey Martin thx for the post! For a start i just try to generate some 2D shapes with a litl bit more information printed in the log. Manipulating in real time variables with a UI and a slider or having select boxes for different definitions, would be way more interactive & cool, can I use python ...

Forgot to bowdown here ^:)^ Eric you are the best, such a nice move, others wont do such a move, seriously you have my respect. It must be really emotional proccess but hope your way past that and celebrating new yearz with lots of cool plans in the back of your head. Im 100% sure you`ll find a way ...

The square challenge! https://i.imgur.com/yUlPnw2.jpg Here my horrible (i bet) code for a Linear curve square, im still using the string to populate my points / draw the curve at the end. The plan was simple change direction every quarter. Then it got a litl more complicated with divisions. //Linea...

Hi! Perhaps this could also be of help? :: http://andy.moonbase.net/archives/940 Which can also be applied to strands and then (parametrically live) curves (with Strands to Curves) Hey FXDude, not expert on ICE or strands here but actually anything could help and it looks promising thanx! Even if i...

Sweet stuff David! Keep up the good work!

OKay lets start with super basic stuff for example: The Str8 Line Challenge :-o https://i.imgur.com/dKqT4lj.jpg SICreateCurve creates an empty curve SICreateCurve( [Name], [Degree], [CurveType] ) To add points in the curve we can use SIAddPointOnCurveAtEnd . SIAddPointOnCurveAtEnd( InputObj, [X], [Y...

Is good to know that i have all these alternatives. For now i will try to play with simple shapes in Softimage. We also have some measuring tools avail can help some times.
An addon like (constraints etc) would be awesome, but since is too much of a work maybe it could be done in pieces.

Hey rray also a nice suggestion i remeber that ice can print things on screen, but can i also have indirect info? Im trying this with JS and variables, but im still a nub that only watched half Khan academy lesson and i still trying to figure syntax etc, I did manage to scrpt a parametric linear cur...

Im preety familar with the original but i could use a dark theme in difficult hours, suggestion to make some enabled keys in the right panel orange kinda like zbrush. That could help to catch with the peripheral vision, what is enabled or not. Esp interested for COG Global local etc in transormation...

The link`d/thread is a beast of tutorial for ICE modeling bookmark`d, thank you rray!

Abt linear curves, i will try with JSscript direclty in SI script editor. My first chalenge is a str8 line

Hello Guys, not long ago I came across a situation, were i had to 'solve' a 2d shape outside of SI on paper with my rusty trigonometric skills, and actually I had to do the same over and over again with different parameters, in order to extract info and pick 2-3 designs that suit my case, with targe...

Happy Xmas everyone!

KaiHH from the LWJGL forum, started recently a tutorial on unbiased realtime pathtracers writen with java and lwjgl. He makes use of an importance based sampling technique (that improoves speed), and an nVidia Filter , enchanced somehow for real time noise removal of the final frame. -- http://www.j...

If you want to have 4 vertical slices. You can create a typical sphere, apply spherical proj, select edges that you want to cut , disconect components In T editor, seperate the 4 isles (or patches), by default u select them with the 'I' or you can directly double click polygons in viewport , and you...

MR had its pick in the 90s with only rival being pixar and maybe lightwave for commercials right? MR was somehow legendery for preey long time. I think that many of the starters hobbyists had in mind that MR is crazy and it wasnt so simple to accept that anyone can beat that, so i can see alot of di...
