Hello All,
I'm building a little app using directors 3D bonesanimation.
I have a 3Dmodel that i can control the bones of. I have code that can
record the position of the model (saving bone nr and transform to a list). I
can then use this information to animate the model to any saved position
from any current position.
Now I want to save this information so I can use it the next time I start my
program. In the end it will be saved in a database (if possible), but for
now any method would do. I tried to save it with BA writeini and as text in
a textmember. But if I'm not mistaken, transform is an object and does
therefore not save, well the information is saved as
"transform(1.0000,0.000" etc...., but I cant get this information back into
director.
I have tried value and different variations of do but nothing I have tried
so far works. Has anyone done anything similar? How should I save this
information and retrieve it?
This is the code I use to save the transitions in the list pPositions:
-----
on PutPosition me
global pPositions
posTemp = []
repeat with i in [2,3,4,6,7]
tempT = pArm.bonesplayer.bone[i].transform
temp = [i, tempT]
add posTemp, temp
end repeat
add pPositions, posTemp
end

Saving one position in the list could look like this:
-----

0.00000,1.00000,0.00000,0.00000, -0.54464,0.00000,0.83867,0.00000,
