Not bad for a particles plugin, man.
So what did you use for everything else that wasn't particles? ;)
Awesome stuff Nick! @Raff - I am going to get Simon to buy you a big wooden
spoon - LOL.

He mentioned you used to beat him with one. HR here frowns on the practice

Thanks everyone, it was lots of fun + pain, some of the rendertimes for the
tree rooms hit nearly 7 hours per frame!
Raf, it was the least headaches I have ever had on a large job, so I may just
stick with the particle plugin I think... Maya can sit with Toxic and
Matchmover ; )

Just letting you all know there was a small featurette released on vimeo -

We finished the movie completely in Softimage rendered with Mental Ray, it was
a huge learning experience but given the size of Triggerfish, it would not have
been possible to have done this in
Thanks Nick, however there is a seemingly subtle but quite important
difference in my case that I didn't re-save the student scene, I re-opened
a scene that was created with a commercial version and re-saved that. A
scene that had never touched a student version suddenly began to think it
had.
DA
Nice work! Had to watch the making of to see what you actually did!

Hi Sandy,
it looks great! Nice to see our beloved particle plugin can pull this

Hi Rob,

Beautiful set design and 3d extensions on that.
So many nice compositing/integration and CC tweaks - it´s awesome.
Lovely look and eye for detail.

I've read a few oldish posts that have all said the only way is a full
res emitter (duplicate using geometry appx). Anybody know if this has
changed in the light of ice modeling? before i tweak my worflow to
incorporate bigger meshes.
cheers,
Andi.

I'm missing the obvious too.
In 2013 SP1 this works:
var o = Dictionary.GetObject( "George" );
var c = o.ActivePrimitive.Geometry.Clusters.Filter( "sample" )(0);
var uv = c.Properties.Filter( "uvspace" )(0);
var uvdef = uv.NestedObjects.Filter( "uvprojdef" )(0);
var projtrsu = uvdef.Parameters
You can clone your mesh and subdivide it via ICE and emit from the result

This is truly a pain in the .ASS! Autodesk has to do something about that!

Cheers for the steer Christian, a bit better than just duplicating the
object, plus i've learnt a bit of ice modelling.

First I was like, eh? didn't notice any effects standing out, it was mostly
live action and maybe some slight environment volume light effects so
watching the right hand side video was then like oh! the flaming barrels
passageway!!, so really well done, it got way past my ra3Dar!

Zooming out of an ortho view with Grid displayed, at some point the
vertical gridlines disappear, and only horizontal ones remain.
Yuck!
This is a relic from the old ages. How about fading those lines in/out?
I repro this.
If you do a 'file>open' while on a 'student' scene you repro.
If you do "New scene" first before open you don't.
Mental note: Keep all student stuff away from your commercial environment!
I logged it here:
SPR-4862 Commercial scene gets infected with Student scenes
Thanks.

To make it clearer:
I repro this.
If you do a 'file>open' on a commercial scene while you were on a 'student'
scene then save the scene you repro. (scene will become a student scene).
If you do a "New scene" first, before 'file>open' then save the scene you don't
reproduce the issue.

Hey Sandy -
its always good to see a softimage based movie completed – and another one in
progress? cool!
Based on all you squeezed out of that particle plugin, perhaps Autodesk should
make a case study of your production: “ Want to boost your overall 3dsmax or

Is there a way to make the navigation tool (I use the Alt key) not have
limits when you get close to the camera interest?
I just realized I can use the "zoom" tool separately to get in closer.
That certainly helps, but I'm curious why there's a limit at all and how
to change it.

Really nice work Sandy, congratulations to you all, a herculean task no doubt!

Congrats guy !
Can you tell us a little more about the production ?
How long have you been working on it ? What is the size of the team ?
You used a bunch of plugins, did you write some custom tools too ?

You're joking, but the message of AD marketing is giving me the creeps.
That's usually a difference in resolution. The vertical lines most of the
time will simply be less visible, and at one point, when far enough, you
will only see very faint vertical lines and not horizontal ones.
More elegant would be something ala ICE background (as in looking like
