Scripting Development with an external IDE

2012-05-29 Thread Leo Quensel
Hey guys,

I am trying to find out how to properly develop python scripts using an 
external IDE.
In Maya this works pretty well by using the mayapy.exe as the interpreter and 
enables code completion for Maya commands in Eclipse.
Is there any way to do this for Soft?
How is everyone doing (Python) script development?

Cheers,
Leo

Re: LK Lightning 1.5.1

2012-05-29 Thread Leonard Koch
Re-sending this because I don't think the list registered it the last time.
If any of you get this email twice I apologize.

 any description of the bug fixes? 
Sure.

   1. In some cases Strands were unable to properly access the Turbulence
   Factor value of their parent strand, leading to a situation in which
   strands sometimes appear out of nothing instead of coming off of another
   strand.
   2. In some rare cases ICE over-optimized some emissions making no
   strands appear in certain frames.
   3. In a rather elaborate case the emission array for the previous frame
   was sorted differently than the current one's, leading to incorrect
   motionblur. This is solved more robustly now.

Really nothing that exciting except for number 1 which was sort of a pain
in the ass.

when adding turbulence to a subdivided branching lightning fork. not all
branches receive turbulence 
Interesting, I haven't heard that before. Are you sure you just don't have
your splitter's Turbulence Factor Mode set to relative and the Turbulence
Factor to something really low? You know, you can only multiply 1 so many
times by something like 0.5 until you get a number really close to zero,
aka no turbulence effect on that strand.
If that's not the case please send me a scene so I can hunt the issue
causing that down.

Arnold is unable to render lightning lightning strands that are truncated
by local time animation
I find that really hard to believe, as I can't think of a reason that could
possibly be causing this. It's possible that Arnold has different
expectations for the strand attributes but I don't think that's the case,
and MentalRay is already really picky about it's inputs for generating
strands... Now unfortunately I don't have Arnold available to me, so if you
continue to encounter this problem I would appreciate it if we could maybe
sit down in skype or something like that so we can investigate.
I'm really sorry if there are problems with Arnold, but I simply have no
way of testing it out myself.

Let me know Sam.

Erratum: The link I sent is not about codeintel directly but the new syntax
checker, just had this name in mind, hehe.

Anyway syntax checker and
https://github.com/Kronuz/SublimeCodeIntel/https://github.com/Kronuz/SublimeCodeIntel/tree/master/libs
are
pretty convenient.

2012/5/29 Xavier Lapointe xl.mailingl...@gmail.com

 As far as I know code completion is not available for various reason out
 of the box, but you could probably generate codeintel files for Komodo (and
 maybe this is also compatible with Sublime)
 http://www.activestate.com/blog/2012/02/diving-deep-komodos-syntax-checker
 (Not sure you want to go down that path tho)

 The raw setup would be to enable auto-reload in the Softimage Script
 Editor and set your IDE to the same settings as Soft's (4 spaces tab,
 replace tab with spaces, etc -- avoiding weird behavior if for any reason
 you want to do a quick edit in Soft directly). You could also point to your
 external IDE with the proper path in the preferences.

 .. and as I'm writting these lines, I just saw Alan's answer, so yes, same
 as him too (:

I think it's Patrick Boucher.  It's not useful to bother him about the
google group doing weird things (formatting, missing mails, etc). It's
a google issue (they're changing stuff all the time), and it's not
like there is a fix it button. That group is just a mailing list
subscriber like anyone else, there is no magic to it! it doesn't run
the list.  Bothered by it?  Actually subscribe to the list with a
gmail account, instead of relying on google group.

Now the group's mailing list subscription getting suspended - due of
excessive bounces, in this case - stephen, myself or other people can
fix that in a minute in the listproc's admin interface.

the URL sent in the mail, unfortunately, only works from inside the

Re: Scripting Development with an external IDE

2012-05-29 Thread Alok Gandhi
I use Komodo, in XSI I wrote a script to reload the plugin/plugins that
ways you don't have to keep plugin manager open. I edit the code in komodo
and just run the script. I run the script from script editor but you can
also conveniently put it under a button on a shelf or toolbar. You can
specify multiple plugins to reload in the script. Here is the script:

import os

PLUGINS_TO_RELOAD = ['you_plugin_file1.py', 'you_plugin_file2.py']

plugins = Application.Plugins

for p in plugins:

pluginFileName = p.Filename
pluginName = os.path.basename(pluginFileName)

if pluginName in PLUGINS_TO_RELOAD:
Application.UnloadPlugin(pluginFileName)
Application.LoadPlugin(pluginFileName)

Hi Szabolcs,

I'm not sure to understand correctly, but it looks like you need something
similar to a Bridge Polygons, but with the ability to add some cross
sections evenly spaced along the bridge right ?

I made a little prototype using ICE modeling :

Sublime has tons of autocompletion feature, for example in one stroke you
generate code for a class with all the necessary function like __init__.
You can do multiline edit with just one change. If you have a variable
'foo' in used in multilines of your code, you can change it at one place
and all the other occurrences gets updated. There is a whole gamut of color
coding with infinite color combinations. You can define your own color
coding. There are just few of the features. I can not do much justice to it
as I personally do not use it a lot, but I always hear great things about
it. May be others can fill you on in this. But remember that sublime is
only a text editor, not an IDE.

As I said I do not use sublime so I am not really in a position to do a
comprehensive critique. For me a text editor will always be a different
entity than an IDE, I am happy with Komodo so far. Another important thing
is that, if you are working in a dev team than code sharing, collobration
and version controls bocome important. Most of the IDE's (Eclipse, Komodo,
Visual Studio) provide extentions/addons to push/pull code directly with
the repositories, which also is not possible through text editors.

Sublime is better than just a text editor.

It has a concept of packages, which are best managed with Package Control:
http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/package_control

Among the packages available are several implementations of git and svn
addons, and many other cool things as Xavier has pointed out.

[Python] Storing datas in a UserDataBlob

2012-05-29 Thread Jeremie Passerin
Hi list !

This morning I've been trying to do something that I thought would be
fairly easy... but I'm stuck
How do you store a dictionary inside a userdatablob in Python?
My dictionary is just made of integer, strings, float... nothing fancy
And it doesn't have to be a dictionary... I just need a way to connect a
value to a name...

I've seen this example :
http://softimage.wiki.softimage.com/sdkdocs/scriptsdb/scriptsdb/UserDataBlob_ByteArray_1_pys.htm

but I would need a untyped array as my values are not all of the same type.


Any idea ?

if not blob:
blob = root.AddProperty(UserDataBlob, False, Test)

LogMessage(blob)

data = {}
data[test] = 123
data[hello] = hello

d = base64.b64encode(pickle.dumps(data, protocol=pickle.HIGHEST_PROTOCOL))

blob.Value = d

out = pickle.loads(base64.b64decode(blob.Value))

LogMessage(out)
# Python Code ends

Re: Scripting Development with an external IDE

Please don't get Eric started on Sublime VS Eclipse + pyDev. We had people
leaving the project and the company in tears for asking about text editors
in his vicinity.

 I like Sublime, but it is just a text editor. For python projects using
 several modules, I prefer an IDE like Eclipse + PyDev.

Recorded a little video running down through some Sublime features:

My apologies for uhms, ehhs and ocassional ranting. This is what happens
when you record straight ahead. :p


By the way, while it is a commercial product, you can try it out for as
long as you wish with all features; it just nags once every so many file
saves. Go try! http://www.sublimetext.com/2

 It's good for everyone, projects big or small. The multi-select tricks in
 particular are like pure witchcraft.

 I'll make a video capture showing some of the cool stuff later when I get
 home.

Re: New Post on my blog : Barycentric Coordinates and the Magic of Locations

2012-05-29 Thread Raffaele Fragapane
Barycentric coordinates are simply a way to descrive a location in a
particular space.
Distribution is a different problem that can be solved in many different
ways depending on scale, efficiency, tolerances, rules and so on. You
choose a space to solve it, and you choose a space to describe the output
transform in, but they are somewhat decoupled problems.

Nice article Alok, very approachable.

 It is in the wild actually. It is part of this other tool I've built:

 Feel free to use it, I remember having inserted enough notes in there for
 it to be understandable (by me at least :)
 I must warn you... it is slow. You can also do this with Helge's custom
 Particle Texture node, which is quite a lot faster.

 CrowdFX has a Emit Evenly compound or something like that. I gues it
 does not use Barycentrics, or UVs for that matter, and I never have tested
 it on unflat surfaces, but might suit your needs.
