Hi there
Here is an alpha version of a paint tool that doesn't need weight maps to deform a mesh.

to install, copy the dll in your plugin directory then
run this jscript command in the script editor: paintDeform()

Some things you need to know:
You probably need to install the last Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Package

-only 64bit for now
-shift to smooth
-RMB Menu to chose between the other brushes
-"e" drag to change the brush opacity
-"r" drag to change the brush radius
-it only work on freezed objects

next step:
-symmetry
-option for non additive painting
-flatten brush

Have fun

not work ( softimage 2012 sp1 x32)

Saw your post on the mailinglist, very nice tool!

I'll have to wait for a 64bit compile, but looking forward to play with it!!

+1 for 64bit

Did anyone test it on 32bit?
Thanks.

Hi it's working fine here, I also tryed it on my laptop, no problem. You're maby missing some lib dependancies

I updated the plugin with a 64 bit version, tell me if it's working

Works fine! (64 bit Win 7)

Nice

Crashed on my 2012SP1 x64

I had an object frozen. It'd be nice to have feedback of my opacity (Displayinfo?) also. The idea is nice, and I WANT IT NOW!!!!!!!!!

So, the crash happens always on undo. Few advices:
- the opacity range should be limited between 0-100
- it would be nice to make the behavior Zbrush or Mudbox like
- LMB stroke pushes outward
- ALT LMB stroke pushes inward
- SHIFT LMB stroke smooth the geometry
- undo should undo the last stroke...



Cheers
