Hi,
I'm looking for away to get the SubcurveIndex/UValue data out again
that an Isopoint Cluster was created from.
var oObject = CreatePrim(Text, NurbsCurve, null, null);
SelectObj(text.isopnt[(3,0.922)], null, null);
I never tried, but how about (re)moving the folder containing these shaders
from the installation?
Hi All!
I was wondering if it would be possible to remove MetaSL from the
rendertree? It takes up a lot of space on the rendertree explorer and I
NEVER use it. I would like to disable MetaSL
Yep, I'm removing this stuff right after installation. Just rename the msl
folder in the XSI_HOME/Application/phenolib/ directory.
cheers

Just wanted to say that the shaders might not at all be crap, but I don't
use them. As there are probably a few hundreds of hours of work making
those working in Softimage. So good work who ever made them, but I don't
need them... sorry :)

there are ways now with the new shader definition to write event plugins
that filter out these meta SL shaders. i believe holger is doing some of
this with a plugin called BAShaderCategory also in the past Guillaume
Laferriere would suggest using events to modify shader definitions.
but removing
Well under linux it's quite fast (since you are doing stuff in the terminal
all the time). So it could be done with all the rest of the stuff in the
installation script.
renaming instead of removing is a good idea :)

There is a user preference and a few environment variables to show/hide groups
of shaders. Check the manuals.

maybe this (be sure to check if it is working properly):
var oObject = CreatePrim(Text, NurbsCurve, null, null);
SelectObj(text.isopnt[(3,0.922)], null, null);
AddToSelection(text.isopnt[(2,0.433)], null, null);
AddToSelection(text.isopnt[(0,0.267)], null, null);
well, I'm more humble these days :)

no compression... i am converting them to an optimal rendering format for

I've had success with 16bpp greyscale tiffs (heightmaps mostly) but
generally I use exr if I'm going above 8bpp, just a much more
predictable format when extra depth is required.

Any sort of compression per chance?
Not too sure about 16bit, but most compression schemes have been a flat
no-go for me before when it comes to tifs and PS.
