Yet another bridge to a C++ library... (sigh)

It sounds like Gypsy wants a purge script that removes the used materials as well as the unsued. This is no longer a purge really. Purgeing generally refers to removing UNUSED materials. So if you are running TIG's purge_all script wanting it to remove materials that are being used by the model, it won't do that. Thats just not what its supposed to do. Instead, keep following the thread posted in that second post above and there is a link to smustard's remove materials plugin. That will go through and remove all materials from your model and then purge them from the materials list. Chris EDIT: actually it looks like that script just removes them from the model. You will then need to purge them yourself.

Ahh, very helpful, thanks again Todd, Chris

Thanks allot, once more.

What about just a subdivide operation with no smoothing?

It was a great pleasure if you can do that.

@bahjon12 said: hi thomthom, this is what the error says "Error Loading File vray_toys.rb No such file to load -- VRayToys/vr_camera.rb" and i use vray 1.0 You get that error because you haven't got the whole plugin, just the vray_toys.rb file. If you go to the thread I linked to in my previous post you can download the whole plugin. However, it won't do you much good I'm afraid for your intention of matching the render with the SU export. The original VfSU, which you have, does not line up at all. The closest you get is setting the V-Ray camera zoom to around 0.7-0.8, then you will have to tweak it manually in post. It's only after Service Pack 1 that the camera will be able to sync up. The latest VfSU version is SR1.5 (1.05.30). Download links: http://asgvis.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=90&topic=5531.msg30095 Note that there are some significant differences between the versions, and upgrading old models might need some work.

You're right, now it works. But I have to delete Sanchi (?) as well. With him it doesn't work.

Thanks Jim! I'll check it out. I found I needed to monitor stuff, but suddenly found myself a bit lost.

I must have missed the Mac version.

Thanks, I missed the update

Ecuadorian, i think its unlikely that the conversions would be done on your computer and then uploaded. Its more likely to be done at the google end, after youve uploaded your model. Having said that your model might not show up in the 3dwarehouse until the conversion has been done, which would explain the slowness.

Here's a screenshot of early development of the plugin. [image: zOKC_AreaReport.png]

Yes it's But what about my box menu scrolling or not? Seems that's can't

Hi Jeff, there are a couple, although I can't help with how to use them. JS Align http://www.pixero.com/ Align Tool http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=11224 and more here: http://www.crai.archi.fr/RubyLibraryDepot/Ruby/en_edi_page.htm

Wow, thank you, Chris, This script will save everyone a lot of work when creating cities via Greeble and random push/pull...

@unknownuser said: I'd rather they fix a bug or two in the one we got. I second that. I'd be more than happy if SU8 only addressed bugs.

aww shucks! I've come a long way in this learning process. But don't you worry Todd, I've still got plenty of "noob" questions to come I'm sure! After all, my main goal is to write a script that is useful enough to make it to the big time, Smustard! So maybe after I figure out web-dialogs (SERIOUSLY CONFUSING), this greeble plugin will find a new home (am I dreaming, or what!) Chris EDIT: This script is outdated. Go to http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=16599 and download it there please! Thanks, Chris

Thanks for that link Daniel.

that sounds awsome!! this would be really great for conducting walk throughs!
