[Plugin] Heightmap from model

That is interesting. Could probably use the generated image as displacement texture in render engines.

Thanks Didier, very interesting and good to see you around..

Hi Didier,

Indeed, long time no see and good to know you are still around.

I have been looking at Unity for a while now so I guess this will come handy soon - thanks!

I get a instant BugSplat upon starting SU.
When I remove it from the plugins folder SU starts normally.
Using latest SU and the english version of your script.

TIG

Same here...

same thing at 7 as TIG and Pixero

Are you on Mac, guys ? or do you use 7.1. ?

Always the same boring SU version update problems with rubies, I guess...

TIG

PC, Vista, with latest SUp v7.1+M1

@TIG:

I'm on SU v7.0.8657
Do you know of any change in the API for 7.1. ?

arccurve.is_polygon?
adding entities to groups initially seems less bugsplatty but it's not documented...
so none that should affect this...

TIG

Have you modified any 'built-in' methods that might clash with others mods ?

Didier Bur

@TIG: No, I never do that !

awesome Didier! I had asked for such a plugin some months ago! It will be great to create some bumpmaps (or displacement maps) to use with VRAY!

EarthMover

Didier I extracted the plugin to the plugins folder and it causes SU to crash upon opening. I removed the plugin and SU opened fine.

Didier Bur

It seems that crappy Vista is causing the problem (as usual).
Since the script writes binary BMP or RAW files, ensure you have the right to do this (be logged as admin ?)
Any other clue anyone ?

Pixero

Well...I had the same problems on XP at work, so... it can't be just Vista.

notareal

Nice tool. Wonder if hdr or exr would be possible as file options.
