Re: windows opened and position

Not as far as I know unfortunately. The custom layout functionality might be enough for what you are looking for though, if all you need is certain types of windows in certain places upon opening softimage it should work. Maybe I missed it but is there option for SI to remember all opened windows,

windows opened and position

Maybe I missed it but is there option for SI to remember all opened windows, like explorer, animation editor anything and save their position on monitors as well?

Nah, just gaming cards. Some 770s, some 560s, and a Titan. This was 2 months ago and we've upgraded some of our farm's GPUs since then, with plans for more. I've been using Redshift here for almost a whole year now and it's hands-down the single most important change for us, IMHO. -Tim On 2/

Hair and Strands are supported as of a couple of builds now, but 'lofted' strands are not, they're still in progress. The hair shader is also not live yet and is being worked on currently, but the default Redshift_Architectural works fine for most cases. You can do a good bit with it, especiall

This is great to see that gear is still being used despite the lack of update and the minimum support. (Miquel did a great update though) I'm working on a brand new rigging system here at Blur, much more powerful than Gear. We are testing it in production for the first time right now. Blur has an

If you get the Volume attribute from the instance master group, you'll have an array of values. Select a value from the array using the same integer that you used as the Index to select a shape from the group, and save it as a custom attribute on emission. BTW CollisionSize doesn't work because

Gear question, again, but new one

So, I am rigging a character. When I make the rig, the right leg's calf twist bone (rig.leg_R0_3_shd) is misplaced, it gets under the sole of the character ( a lot under the ground floor). Fun fact, that when I create the rig with legs only it's OK. I tried to duplicate symmetry the guide of t

Re: animating instances in place of hairs

you pretty much answered yourself – hair instances are always scaled so their Y bounding box fits the length of the hair it’s instanced on. you can get around this by parenting the grass object under a (hidden) cylinder, and instancing that. The cylinder’s Y bounding box will define the scaling
