Has anyone managed to load an fbx camera via a script or terminal mode?

thanks

Ok, now that I'm back at the studio and trying to actually make this thing work:

camera.forceValidate() seems to load the file, but not really. I get the fbx_take_name and fbx_node_name lists from the file, but if I set them, nothing happens. The lens is incorrect, matrix and translations not set, etc.  Even after doing a camera.forceValidate() after each operation.

Using the same commands in the GUI works fine.

Any other ideas?

Fantastic! Yes, there's a lot of actions I need to do after that, but none would work unless the camera loaded. Pretty useful function to get the hash updated too.

I really need to update my docs link to the 6.3x versions...

Many many thanks!!!

Hi John,

Try:

camera = nuke.createNode('Camera2', 'read_from_file true file %s' % fbxfile)
followed by:
camera.forceValidate()

You'll probably need to manually set the fbx_node_name knob to the actual camera you want as well.

Hope that helps.

Hey there -

I'm trying to load an fbx file in a terminal session - trying to script an automatic process. I'm stumped at setting up my camera.

> nuke -t

fbxfile = '/path/to/fbxfile.fbx'
camera = nuke.createNode('Camera2')
camera['read_from_file'].setValue(True)
camera['file'].setValue(fbxfile)

doesn't load it, neither does

camera = nuke.createNode('Camera2', 'read_from_file true file %s' % fbxfile)

The file knob is set, but it's not loaded so I can't really do much after that. Any ideas?
Both of those work from the GUI, but the idea is to run this in a script.

Thanks
