Missing ShapeAction Sources When Importing Model

2014-01-31 Thread Mitchell Lotierzo
Hey gang, I'm getting some really strange behavior when importing a model with some shapes on it. All of the shapes are hooked up (non-ICE) and working fine in my build scene, but the model errors out on import. The script editor spits out this: # ERROR : 2000 - The ActionClip ShapeAction4584

not behave as expected. Unknown model? The model I'm exporting definitely has a name. The only thing that ICETree is doing is a basic copy op which copies the point positions from a duplicate mesh to the render mesh. Mitch On Fri, Jan 31, 2014 at 3:29 PM, Mitchell Lotierzo mitchlotie

Hi everyone, I'm trying to clone some points on a point cloud by first reading in a cache file with a Cache On File node and then using the Clone Point node. I'm then trying to randomize their color values (which I know relies on an ID attribute). All works well for the first three or four frames
