More specifically, I don't see an option in FBFbxOptions or in FBApplication to choose an HTR as the export type. In fact, FBApplication.FileExport() seems to export only AMC/ASF files as it has no options. I looked at the header for FBFbxOptions and the file type can only be set to MB 2010 or 2011 (and this is using 2012, so I guess the dox haven't been updated). Any thoughts? 2012-05-25T11:51:24+02:00 http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-motionbuilder/python/opticalmarkers-split-segment--remove-segment--auto-rigid/page-last/ http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-motionbuilder/python/opticalmarkers-split-segment--remove-segment--auto-rigid/page-last/#When:05:45:03Z I would like to upgrade my workflow during mocap cleaning. It's confusing when I need to click everytime direct to button. Question: How can I get by scripy to trhose tools > Split Segment / Remove Segment / Auto-Rigid 'type'. It shows when optical marker is selected in navigartor. I would like to execute those scripts by user shourtcuts. 2012-05-17T05:45:03+02:00 http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-motionbuilder/python/how-to-alter-the-specularity-of-all-materials-via-python/page-last/ http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-motionbuilder/python/how-to-alter-the-specularity-of-all-materials-via-python/page-last/#When:21:44:12Z Can someone show an example of how to set the specularity to 0 on all materials in the currently loaded scene?

But I can not add blendshape model to FBCharacterFace , I don not know why. Please give me some example ,Thanks very much This is my script: from pyfbsdk import * sys = FBSystem() scene = sys.Scene ListCha = FBModelList() for model in scene.Components: if type(model) == FBModel: FBModelList.append (ListCha, model) for lCharacterFace in scene.CharacterFaces: if lCharacterFace.Name == 'Character face': FBCharacterFace.ShapeGroupAdd(lCharacterFace, ListCha, 'ChiYan_Face') 2012-05-16T20:57:44+02:00 http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-motionbuilder/python/instantiate-character-face-and-add-blendshape-model-into-character-face/page-last/ http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-motionbuilder/python/instantiate-character-face-and-add-blendshape-model-into-character-face/page-last/#When:20:51:41Z Hi guys, I have a rookie question. How do I instantiate Character face and add blendshape model into Character face with python?

I would like you to ask for help. I built a device transmitting precise location - a real camera to MotionBuilder. Sending data via rs323, using Python script and PYserial . Everything works fine but I have a problem with using timecode to the trigering of reading data from the RS232 port and update the virtual camera position in MotionBuilder. I would like to trigger this process every single frame. Unfortunately I do not pretend to. I am a newbie and I ask for help.

In MB 2010 I could do this: [code]lMaterial.PropertyList.Find("Diffuse").GetAnimationNode().Nodes[0][/code] However, in MB 2012, it doesnt even allow me to do this: [code]lMaterial.PropertyList.Find("Diffuse").GetAnimationNode()[/code] ...but it does work on Transparency: [code]lMaterial.PropertyList.Find("Transparency").GetAnimationNode()[/code] Does anyone have any ideas on a work around so I can access the the node information for the Diffuse property? Any help would be awesome, Thanks! 2012-05-02T01:45:07+02:00 http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-motionbuilder/python/how-to-change-light-type-from-point-to-infinite/page-last/ http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-motionbuilder/python/how-to-change-light-type-from-point-to-infinite/page-last/#When:13:18:32Z I have many lights per scenes I need to change from Point to Infinite and keep all other parameters the same (color, intensity, position, rotation, parent...).

Thanks. 2012-04-30T13:18:32+02:00 http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-motionbuilder/python/generic-creation-of-elements/page-last/ http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-motionbuilder/python/generic-creation-of-elements/page-last/#When:15:02:28Z Based on a custom-built menu the user can select an element for creation. For example, I can create a drop-down list of things like: null marker cube camera I can if/elif to create the object: [code] if selection == 'cube': FBModelCube( 'mycube' ) elif selection == 'camera': FBCamera( 'mycamera' ) # etc. [/code] I'd rather not enumerate every single type of item the user might want to create and have 90 gazillion if/elif's. Since the list of items the user can create is customizable, I have no idea what he might have put in the list (assume they're all valid MB objects). Ideally, I'd like to be able to do something like this: [code] selection = SelectItemFromList() FB$selection( 'my thingy' ) [/code] And voila, whatever the user selected is created. I've obviously omitted some implementation details, but the general idea is clear. Any way about this? Or am I resigned to a ton of elif's? 2012-04-20T15:02:28+02:00
