Another Softimage to Mitsuba exporter

[nDman]

Ok, i did second try to install it. PyQt installed perfectly and it works well (On SI-2013). But now there is a problem at export mesh for render!

Code: Select all

It seems export dll file compiled for higher version.

This version should work: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/114 ... 2.xsiaddon

There are some errors and XSI crushes (because of some differences in API), when I tried to use the plugin in SI 2013. But this version works correctly.

Cool, thanks for this. It works partially. It exports correctly and i can open and render the scene file by Mitsuba GUI program.
But inside SI it won't render and it stays in Rendering... state.

Sorry, i just reporting problems. If it's time consuming to make it work on SI-2013, forget about it ;) I will use Mitsuba GUI to render

I did some tests, and it seems that the problem in external Python. I have Python 2.7 in my system, and when I tried to use it in SI2013 some errors appear during the export process. But with built-in SI2013 Python export works perfect. When I tried to use Python from SI2015 as external Python for SI2013 all works correct. So, you can try to use the Python distributive from this link: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/114 ... SI2015.zip

This is not default Python folder from SI2015, but additionally it contains only PyQt4 and Gear modules.
