Re: FESRetopo - retopology tool for Softimage
Icons should be placed to the folder "\icons\", which should be placed (this folder) near FESRetopo.py file. Names of these icons should be b1_a.png, b1_h.png, b1_p.png and so on. If you make manual setup of the tool, by using, for example, canvas-node, then you should enter the complete p...

Re: FESRetopo - retopology tool for Softimage

Re: FESRetopo - retopology tool for Softimage
Hm, I really don't know why it happens. I install the fresh Softimage 2014 SP2 and install the FESRetopo plugin. All works correctly. Your error may appear in the following situations: 1. You install new version of the plugin, but open the scene with old version. I mean that every time you open FESR...

Re: FESRetopo - retopology tool for Softimage
It will be better to use Push deformer separately. You retopo the mesh as usual, then add push deformer and finally add subdivision deformer to this mesh. As a result you can tweak push amount and interactively find the value which is good for you. Of course it is possible to add custom push deforme...

Re: FESRetopo - retopology tool for Softimage
I think that i can do it. No problem with your first request (about middle button). Your second request is also realizable, but only as additional function in Softimage. I can add a button to property page. By pressing this button you starts the pick session. You select any object and the the retopo...

Re: FESRetopo - retopology tool for Softimage
Try the following: 1. Check, is FabricEngine installed correctly. For example, try to open standard examples. For Softimage toy should connect as workgroup the folder FabricEngine-1.15.3-Windows-x86_64\SpliceIntegrations\FabricSpliceSoftimage2015\ 2. If FE installed correctly, try to load FESRetopo....

Re: FESRetopo - retopology tool for Softimage
Make some improvements, and now it works much faster.
And yes, if try to write the same tool in c++ API of Softimage, then the number of lines in code will be the same (more or less). The main part of this code belongs to logic and does not depend on Softimage API or FabricEngine API.

Re: Another Softimage to Mitsuba exporter
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 S...

Re: Another Softimage to Mitsuba exporter
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.

Also, as written here: https://github.com/caron/PyQtForSoftimage Plugin PyQtForSoftimage works correctly with Python 2.7. Build-in version of Python on Softimage 2013 is 2.6.4. May be this is the reason of the error. But anyway, it is possible to use external Python distributive, but it needs additi...
