Hey guys,
pretty sure some of you are familiar with that kind of problem.
I've a car rig where some part are only deformed (translated) by
hierarchy/constraints, and some are skinned on a deformer.
Let say we use the wheel as example. When I retrieve the wheel 4x4 matrix,
it will give me its
Hi Xavier,
Maybe you're using the local transforms, for the hierarchy/constraints, you
need to retrieve the global transform,
and for the skinned ones the deformer's global transform.

Hey Ahmidou,
Yup the hierarchy/constraint based this isn't a problem.
For the skinned ones, getting the deformer's global transform was something
I was considering, so since you bring that up: is it a safe way? Let say
you have a mesh deformed by 50 deformers (like a character body), I would
Well, the trouble is that it's still not really accurate - if one end gets
stretched in an extreme way the the centre of the points could go way off.
Getting all the deformers is tricky as not all of them are going to have
equal measure evenly across the mesh.
One way might be to choose one point
Well you'll have an accurate result only if the object are 100% skinned to
one deformer. You ca also get the mesh bounding box, but it will still be
an approximation
I'm afraid there is not other solutions.

The main problem is that it's not documented and it's actually not
discoverable (if you query the ShaderParamDef of the softimage phong, this
attribute seems to be hidden). Other than that using GUIDs as attribute
names isn't exactly user friendly, but it works.

Hi Ahmidou,

For your problem, I would go in c by reproducing a kinda structure that
mimic FCurves ones like the following.

double cps[4][3];
uint_t interp;
};
struct motionpath {
constchar_t *source;
ushort_t color[3];

Hi Jared,

That's where I would start.

Hi Xav,
Nothing much to add, but yeah I would not consider as point average as a
'safe' method. The only thing that will work in this case is when you have
weights 100% from one deformer. I would still consider the point positions
as valid as the data set has changed. If you can explain what
...or use Momentum, it supports a lot of per point attributes on
softbodies.
I remember some ice related bugs were logged, but they should be fixed by
now.
Of course the bullet cloth solver is not as robust as syflex so it may or
not be an alternative.

Maybe a2.Set(a1) or a2+=a1 would work?

isn’t “const” keyword a hint that we won’t change input array?

The docs say that:
in this case,
CRefArray a1;
a1.Add(CRef());
a1.Add(CRef());
CRefArray a2(a1);
a2.Add(CRef());
The copy constructor is invoked and is not the one you mentioned Alok but
this one CRefArray(const CRefArray other) which have different behaviors
and purposes than the overloaded assignment operator.
Jo is right. I sent this a few minutes ago in response to Alok's message
about the assignment operator and how that somehow makes the exhibited
behavior correct... but I don't think it went through so I'm re-sending.
Sorry if this is a double post. Of course as Jo said, it's not even using

The docs use the term assign because that's the C++ assignment operator.
Assigning value types is not supposed to create a reference.
Simplest example is:
int a = 0;
int b = a;
a = 1;
At this point, b is obviously still 0 even though you assigned a to it.
Or a better example:
std::vectorCRef
Shot in the dimly lit (not completely in the dark), but you should be able
to use catmull rom curves, offer control over each knot's tension on each
interval (left and right) and convert the relative components of that
vector into pairs for the fcurves handles. Should, in theory, be close
enough.
You are right Jo, I mentioned the wrong prototype, what I wanted to
quote was the Copy Constructor and the assignment operator. Sorry
about the confusion. I clicked on the wrong link. Of course what
Nicolas was using was a copy constructor, since both the class
