the x86 version is not supposed to be compatible with the x64 edition
it is for 32bit XSI.

It should automatically ignore it
well just delete the "PolymeshDuplicator.x86.dll" file
and leave the "PolymeshDuplicator.x64.dll"

This is weird, since i compiled it with the 7.01 x64 libraries. on my winxp 64 machine it works fine. I repacked the addon from inside 7.01 x64 if it still doesn't work i rar'ed the folder structure of the addon so just decompress it in your "Addons" user directory under the name "Pol...

Makes strands on a given surface that are curvy to look like grass blades.

EDIT: minor changes to allow independant Hue/Sat/Lum/Alpha color variance
added a shader preset for the grass, copy it to your "DSPresets/Shaders/Material" folder


Enjoy at your own risk

What do you mean you can't install?
Does it give you an error?
Does it's icon in the Plugin Manager have a red triangle?
Does it install and does nothing?
Does it crash 7.01?
What???

when changing the scripts i "cut & pasted" instead of "copying & pasting" some parts
my mistake.

redownload from here please

And BTW,
my apologies for the messy C++ source.

I have also added a GNU General Public License so this addon remains free. I hope this is ok with you

Frankly, even if they stole the source code,
I personally doubt that anyone would pay for
such a simple plugin like this.

v1.2.1 I corrected some bugs i found to the 1.2 version you posted. Changed it, so it automatically sets the Copies to the number of particles there are at the current frame, and renamed the "Transform Geometry to Pointcloud" compound to "Transform PmDuplicated to Pointcloud" to ...

2010 sp1

This is wierd,

I reloaded the scene and
now it actually works !

That doesn't do color bleed,

it does light bleed,
and ignores the diffuse color
of the shader

Thank you for sharing your addon, it's very useful!
I would like to modify your script a little to automatically plug in a pointcloud into the "Transform to Pointcloud" node. Do you mind if I re-publish your modified work here?

Be my guest

Can I attach your duplicated objects to another cloud points, just like in the above movie?

That's what the "Transform to PointCloud with CopyID" compound does,
plug the point cloud to the geometry port and that's it.

Thanks for your great tool!! :ymhug: Is it possible to reproduce this effect with your addon? http://vimeo.com/groups/ice/videos/6999806 http://vimeo.com/groups/ice/videos/6996197 And I would like to make, for instance, random distribution of these spheres, is it possible somehow. Thanks in advance...

I only have 2010 SP1 x64 and it works If you try to import scenes from previous releases (ex. 7.01), you have to re-apply the operator, because SI doesn't seem to properly connect it (don't know why) I attached a sample scene (the forum doesn't allow uploads > 256kb, :-? so it is split :-?? )

Sorry, my mistake.
It works in Softimage 2010 sp1 x64
