Re: studioNest GEAR (released)
just a simple code to register Python in windows environment variables. maybe someone will find it useful.
change C:\modules\ with your path to modules folder. save as bat file and run as administrator

Code: Select all
@echo off
C:\Windows\System32\reg.exe ADD "HKCU\Environment" /v PYTHONPATH /t REG_EXPAND_SZ /d "C:\modules\\"
Re: studioNest GEAR (released)
I'm not really the Python head, but can one run the Gear tools with the python version that comes with Softimage?
If so, can somebody explain how to get things installed on the modules part.
cheers,
rob

Re: studioNest GEAR (released)
It should be possible.
Quit Softimage
The easiest way (to explain?) is probably to add the following to your setenv.bat
Restart Softimage
;)
Haven't tried this myself, as I used the PYTHONPATH on the level of the Windows environment variables, but this should work. If not: let me know...

set PYTHONPATH=[your very own path to the modules folder here]

Re: studioNest GEAR (released)
Nope, not working.
I have set the path in the setenv.bat to the modules folder:
rem StudioNest GEAR Python Modules
set PYTHONPATH=\\SERVER\xsiwg\StudioNest_2011\modules
but the test command gives me a error about the module not found.
Do you have Python installed outside SI? I'm trying to get it working for SI SAP. All other stuff is working for the StudioNest tools.
All other Python bases tools do work in SI, so installing Python separate from Si isn't neccessary for these tools.
Will try again tomorrow, any more tips are welcome.

Re: studioNest GEAR (released)
Just as a test: what happens if you temporarily locate the modules folder locally and not define it by an UNC address (but by a garden variety "C:\LookHere\modules")?
Or maybe place the workgroup address between quotation marks...
(belated edit: and double all the backslashes)

Re: studioNest GEAR (released)
Hi,
Got it working with the lines mentioned in my previous post:
So it's working with the internal SI install of Python, and in a workgroup without much hassle.
Repo steps:
1. Create workgroup folder, e.g. 'StudioNest'
2. In the plugin manager, connect to this workgroup folder, and be sure to move it up so it's the first workgroup in the list
3. Copy the 'modules' folder from the downloaded gear zipfile into the workgroup folder, so you get 'StudioNest\modules'
4. Edit setenv.bat with the PYTHONPATH line, linking the python scripts. Edit this file with a text editor on admin rights, or change the properties of the SI 'UserTools' link/app to 'run as administrator'! If not, you cannot save the file...
5. After restarting SI, go to the plugin manager, and install the gear addon into the StudioNest workgroup
6. Restart SI again, and see the GEAR menu appear. Open up the demo scenes to see if all works, if so....
