Hi Kxl,

The script is awesome and the tutorial definitely help to get into the motionbuilder physics tools.
One thing I did run into is that I can’t get the script to work in motionbuilder 2011.
I’m not very technical and maybe it’s trivial to make the script compatible with the latest Mobu.
In the meantime I’ve dropped back to Mobu 2010.

If anyone could update the script to 2011, that would be great.

Hi again,

Been sidetracked with other stuff.
The error I get is

Traceback (most recent call last):
File “C:/Program Files/Autodesk/Autodesk MotionBuilder 2011 32-bit/bin/config/Scripts/Other/KxL_Area_PhysicsSpeedup.py”, line 331, in <module>
from pyfbsdk_additions import *
ImportError: No module named pyfbsdk_additions

It looks like the same errors that are mentioned in this thread

http://area.autodesk.com/for...n-in-mobu-2011/page-last/

However, I’ve tried reinstalling and adding the python addons, but no luck so far.
I haven’t tried the last solution of adding python paths, coz I don’t really know how to do that.

thanks again for looking into this,

e1

It looks like instalation problem, not script...have you tried to uninstall, remove all config files and install again?

I wouldn’t aks if I didn’t use this speedup script about every day, saving me a lot of time.  After finally managing to install it for 2011 (by adding an environment variable), I’m now having problems installing the script for Mobu 2012.

The error i get is :

Traceback (most recent call last):
File “C:/Program Files (x86)/Autodesk/MotionBuilder 2012 (32-bit)/bin/config/Scripts/KxL_Area_PhysicsSpeedup.py”, line 538, in <module>
DestroyToolByName(gToolName)
NameError: name ‘DestroyToolByName’ is not defined

Any help would be great,
