Sorry Ray, try to edit last post(without spam or "flood" this thread).

It's like remote files - proxies or xRefs, i think...
Or teamwork in share network will be incredible thing//bim will close...revit with its worksharing features, archicad's network solutions....

also using applyto-script for changing
then using displ.or bump map to branch in your favorite render.engine

Konstantine(aka mentor) use lsystem(onyxtree4max and Houdini) made such http://www.3dmentor.ru/3dcenter/branch_grow_01.mov and http://www.3dmentor.ru/wip/dbm3_test_45.jpg, http://www.3dmentor.ru/wip/dbm3_test_36.jpg ....

great!

i know name for this - heightfield/normalmap/bumpmap baking(HNB) tool

kwisten, displ-t is very memory-hungry option in realtime(not for rendering in shader's system/so c4d has mograph's displ.deformer)

and also recompiling of plug-ins to new version of sdk(for example many designers want new vray to work with AD 3ds MAX Design 2009...but in 20 april).
And if you use non-subscription support(using sdk from max-content), you need to download simple max 2k9 version(with sdk) for developing plugs..for design-version(max is having 2 version now)

I wish that new sketchup(7) hasn't such problems(remember that 6 has sketchup.rb and some in tools-dir...and need to clear some lines from code in rbs-scripts)
Devs please make more flexible enviro for ruby...

Awesome tool!

look at http://www.photomatch.info too
Also Arndt create cinema4d's plug-in with same name. and it works with video too but in c4d's enviro.

Hello Pete, if you need it i can convert

..., I know nothing of ArchiCAD...

if need 3d - turn on to 3d-view and select all geometry and then export into 3ds(i prefer) or dwg)
2d - select all in plan-view and export into dxf or dwg

And if you use not only native library, need to save as pla-format(archive)....for remote export to other people...

i add some: Thank you!

@unknownuser said:

Did you hear about an exporter for Cinema4D or an importer into Cinema4D?

No...but think it can be written into xml-data(geometry and ect)

For instances i use cob(coffe)-plug-ins - ReplaceInstances, ReplaceObject, SearchObject...
It's sometimes difficulty to organize scene.

ReplaceInstances, ReplaceObject, SearchObject...

sorry for my poor English

i use for export(from skipy) - fbx, obj(c4d's Riptide plug-in for import)...
for cinema4d - 3ds and dxf

It will be nice to export cameras into c4d.

Entschuldigung für meine schlechte Deutsch (Software - translate.google.com)
Ich benutze für den Export (von skipy) - fbx, obj (c4d's Riptide Plug-In für den Import) ...
Für cinema4d - 3ds und dxf

Es ist schön zu exportieren Kameras in c4d.

Thanks, i subscribe to your RSS feed!

Eric can you go to gallery-page or ...after logging?
I have same when i come(Opera-browser) to another page - it is lighting that i can to log out...

Nice!
What about DrawHelix(rb-script) 13 by Peter Brown?

Great work!
Have fornications textured or geometry?

Wait for updates...

if i miss something, Adam... can you export baked map(via uv-map, image-source) for future detailing into photoshop or analogs...then import this map to sketchup(via your plug-in again or standard import by using of urgen's technics)

i get it(success with divx-compressed movies by decoded 5-version).
I make all(as urgen wrote):

1. Open video, simple capture by PrintScreen...stay opened video.
2. Then open Photoshop(i have cs3) and paste captured source(can see easter bug, movie has translate into pshp-frame, not still image). Then save it as PNG(save in root of drive). Stay opened pshp-window with capture.
3. open sketchup and import this png...and you can see this technical bug or something(like in pshp)

Thanks to urgen.

biebel, great...they(sketchupers) are seeking 7 of skipy and can't find it?! ))))))

you can to modify dynamically at last version - from 14 March 2k8...but previous version - not

use(read) help of skipy-vray (pdf).

you need post-work only in any graf.editor or compositing tool to get such effects
Vlado is doing in sdk(cinema4d's vray has volume light effects) now(you can see some tests at chaos's forum)

...fry-render(evermotion tutorials) or indigo can this

i just paint some faces of TIN-plane(landscape), using for example: green-color...like uv-mapping technics - for c4d and ect.
or use segments-faces(which will be hidden...same as on your landscape) to populate trees objects in Kerky2008
