      @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...

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

              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!

                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.

                  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 ?

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

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

                        Where does it write these to?
                        I am an admin so it shouldn't matter.
                        Also it crashes SUp BEFORE you try to do anything - just by loading it you get the problem.

                          Hi TIG,

                          i have the same problem with XP. SU7 was just by loading and then came a Bugsplat.

                            It writes images at the same location than the SKP is.

                            That's what is really strange. I don't overwrite built-in methods, don't do any 'require' or something that involve other files.

                            Would you please test this version and tell me if the problem persists ? 🎉

                              Still crashes instantly while loading SU. Now on Windows 7 64bit. SU 7.1.

                                  Test file = instant Bugsplat.
                                  Didier - why not PM or email the 'uncompiled' script to one of us for debugging - you can trust me 😉 ...
                                  You know that I hack into your encrypted rb files all of the time, but the rbs ones are a bit harder... just easier if you supply it unencrypted...
                                  It must be simple to fix...

                                    Slightly off topic here: Is there a plugin that does the exact opposite of this one? That is creating a terrain from an greyscale image (.jpg or anything else)? Thank you. G

                                      There is, Didier wrote a script that imports a heightmap image into SU. I forget what its called, but it was written by didier bur and should be posted here on the forum somewhere....

                                          Did anybody find some solution for instant BugSplat upon starting SU when using this plugin?

                                            I was going to look at the code, but it is encrypted. So it would require Didier to look at it.

                                            Sometimes if the script calls the active_model before the model is initialized by SU it can cause problems. But I can't see if the script is possibly doing anything like that.
