Re: D3 Softimage - better phrased
Wow! Didn't expect my name to be dropped in the mailing list. Cool :D Paul: You basically have it right. Our d3 scenes was supplied to us by event organizer, so I can't really contribute any insights into how those are generated. It seemed like it basically was a matter of correctly matching up the scene, place cameras where the lights should be and project a map. If your doing the editing as well you have two options, depending on your project you can either edit the whole thing inside d3 or you can render out render maps , do your editing externally and just slap it on inside the program. If you can stomach the output resolutions I'd say go with option no 2. The d3 program is from what I gathered from my colleagues not that pleasant to work with. But yeah. Lots of back and fourth.

It looks like it's essentially a matter of taking a 3D model of whatever D3 is projecting on creating an animated RenderMap that they take and re-project on the physical version of the model. If nobody else has done it, I'll at least try to take notes share them when I'm done. Thanks!

Re: d3 technologies content
Ok! As far as I know there's no way of having realtime feedback inside Si of what the finished thing will look like, so there is a lot of irksom back-and-forth between editing and 3d. So one way of previewing is to have the scene inside Your editing software, but another way is to have a version of your scene with your rendered material applied to the objects. But I think having it inside smoke/d3/fc/whatever is better, as you CSN prewiew the timing much better. But ultimatly that's up to you. My only real advice is to stay out of d3 as much as possible.

Very simplified and overly black and white dramatised into a nutshell: You´ll need enough funds to cover at least 4-6 months of your costs of living (including everything from rent to taxhealthcare). That is if you plan on taking on your own clients and working from at home, which means you have to kickstart yourself into a full-fledged, responsible businessperson, office manager, IT guy, producer and artist while making rounds for new contacts, finding the opportunity, getting the job, doing it, delivering it and waiting for it to get paid. I would like to advise you look into just freelancing, e.g. you get booked by a company, they bring you in, you work there on their equipment and you leave them with a smile when you´re done. That´s hard enough to get into but doesn´t give you the burden of having to invest into personal equipment on top of securing your cost of living for the first few months. Judging from your email adress, you may want to look into utopiapeople.comor vfxjobs.com Remote 3D jobs (e.g. working from home) are quite rare, it´s far more common to bring in freelancers (including the travelaccomodation expenses) as needed in my personal experience. Concept design or highly specialized tasks can be an exception. Even if you land just a junior position, you should expect/gain a reasonably good day rate and hopefully at decent work experience out of working at a new shop. Another thing to realize is that working freelance means you may have to embrace months of downtime as natural and don´t just expect to multiply your day rate by 180 days/year, which some fellow employees may tend to do when you´re judged on what you ask per day. That can lead to some tension and misbehaviour. Everybody seems to forget about all the taxes, too.

Re: path constraint via ICE

If you have a null constrained in the middle, and you pull one end of a

version, it will always stay at 50% of the length so slide along the curve.
I managed to get one working using Nest’s Strandfitting compound and the

Hi,
If we use object as an upvector, then we don't need the Increment Rotation
with 2 vectors compound. We can just use 'Direction to Rotation' node.
-tangent as 'Point At'
-the position difference of the upvector object position to the curve
position as 'Up Vector'

Then i tried emitting strand trails and just GetStrandPosition -Closest location -SetPointPosition, but it seems like all strandpoints is looking at the location of strandPoint[0] or something.
