Hi All, This is NOT arnold related, this is OpenImageIO related :)
As always, trying to use external binarys with Softimage is a bit of a pain. As always, it always works with others applications. As always, the tools always needs to be modified *only* for Softimage As always, [ insert rant ] If you have a Linux machine (in my case CentOS 6.3) and OpenImageIO installed you can use maketx as a command to convert textures to mipmap and tiles. And it as a nifty feature to resize the image to the "power or 2". But I'm not able to use it when the artist is using Softimage. Python code to test in application X # import subprocess subprocess.Popen("maketx /home/stefan/test.jpg --resize -o /home/stefan/test.exr", shell=True) # This will genarete a EXR file (in most other applications....). Softimage only spits out this: maketx: /usr/Softimage/Softimage_2013_SP1/Application/bin/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.11' not found (required by maketx) maketx: /usr/Softimage/Softimage_2013_SP1/Application/bin/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.11' not found (required by /usr/lib64/libOpenImageIO.so.1.0) maketx: /usr/Softimage/Softimage_2013_SP1/Application/bin/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.11' not found (required by /usr/lib64/libboost_regex-mt.so.5) Anyone knows of a workaround for this that doesn't include SitoA? regards stefan andersson -- *Stefan Andersson | Digital Janitor* blog <http://sanders3d.wordpress.com> | showreel<http://vimeo.com/sanders3d>| twitter <http://twitter.com/sanders3d> | LinkedIn<http://www.linkedin.com/in/sanders3d>| cell: +46-73-6268850 | skype:sanders3d
