Re: restart Softimage
If I check the dirty count on a fresh scene, I get a 0. Not sure if that matters or not. lol.

Re: restart Softimage
Fair enough.But that would give you a list of Events at Startup, not necessarily the plugins that dirty the scene in the manner described above? Or am I missing something here?
I thought it would be easy to find the plugin based on the event name, but perhaps most users are not familiar with the plugins available on their systems.
What about this?
Code: Select all
authors = ["Softimage", "Autodesk"]
events = [e.Name for e in Application.EventInfos if "Startup" in e.Type or "Begin" in e.Type]
print [p.Name for p in Application.Plugins for i in p.Items if i.Name in events and p.Author not in authors]

Re: restart Softimage
No, the problem doesn't lie with matching the event to a specific plugin, the problem lies with figuring out which of these events/plugins dirties the scene in the aforementioned manner...
Stay safe, sane & healthy!
Re: restart Softimage
knowing which plug-ins you have installed is the first step. then you could disable them one by one to find the culprit.
(Isn't there a way to disable individual events in the plug-in manager? can't recall)
XSI by itself does not dirty an empty scene -- although FaceRobot, if enabled, might.

Re: restart Softimage
Sure, but for the first step I wouldn't need a script, I'd just visit the Plug-in Manager. I was hoping there was a less tedious way to figure out the culprit than to manually disable/enable them all.

Thank you all, nonetheless... ;)

Re: restart Softimage
I just removed all the plugins from the install. Now, nothing shows up in the plugin manager, but SI still wants to know if I wanna save an unmodified scene, lol.
Re: restart Softimage
Let's just say XSI 2012 doesn't prompt to save the scene after you start XSI. I don't know about 2014. It's possible the new sequencer or something else does something.
1) FIie->Plugin Manager
2) go to the Events tab
3) mute the events that are registered, if any, to check if they are the culprit.
You can click Details to see where that plug-ins comes from

Re: restart Softimage
hmm, that was the first thing I tried before removing everything. Opened up the plugin manager, filtered to show all events, I muted every event, but SI still asks to save. strange.
Oh well. It's just minorly annoying. overly-cautious SI is better than cut-throat SI, I suppose.
