I wish to write a script to select a poly, then push a button to select the next 4 polygons by number. Ex. I select poly 94, hit button and polys 95-98 are added to the selection. I want it so that it doesn't matter which poly I select, it just adds the next 4 to it. Seems like it should be simple, but I can't figure out the terminology to use to do a search for examples. I believe they called that "iteration"... here's my fake script of what I am sort of thinking... UserPoly = GetValue "currently selected polygon"; AddToSelection "sphere.poly[UserPoly]+4", True 2013-02-22T14:55:51+02:00 Help Animation mixer tracks To timeline Again? http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/autodesk-softimage-2012/help-animation-mixer-tracks-to-timeline-again/page-last/ http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/autodesk-softimage-2012/help-animation-mixer-tracks-to-timeline-again/page-last/#When:09:43:47Z I've created animation mixer clips for edit animations that have a bug of time and I want to extended and the time line was cleared and now I wants to put the animations again in the time line to export, how do that? 2013-02-20T09:43:47+02:00 How to export texture sequence using python script http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/autodesk-softimage-2012/how-to-export-texture-sequence-using-python-script/page-last/ http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/autodesk-softimage-2012/how-to-export-texture-sequence-using-python-script/page-last/#When:08:38:21Z Hi, I'm quite new to softimage scripting and would like to export sequence of a texture using python script.

My investigation has led me here; http://www.the-area.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/animation/facerobot-and-3ds-max/ I am looking at purchasing point oven but in the meantime thought I'd try other options. I looked into the "send to max" in the file menu but this doesn't seem to be setup for transfer of meshes more to do with particles? http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/autodesk-softimage-2012/softimage-2012-send-to-3dsmax-options/ I have used crosswalk and it will transfer a mesh but no textures and it will only transfer simple animations such as scale keyframes but nothing with regards to facerobot. The best result I've seen so far with crosswalk is that the face will be exported along with a morph target set but the morphs do nothing and all bones come in as dummy object with simple skinning. Not ideal as it negates the benefits of using face robot for implementing face capture into the pipeline. I have seen the youtube video from Blur Studios explaining their workflow with facerobot on dantes inferno but they don't go into any detail, if anyone from Blur or who knows that the process works could let me know that would be immense. Cheers, Dan UPDATE : Found out that crosswalk does not support facerobot transfer with any version of max. 2012-11-29T11:55:51+02:00 Mouth interior http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/autodesk-softimage-2012/mouth-interior/page-last/ http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/autodesk-softimage-2012/mouth-interior/page-last/#When:13:12:20Z Hi I'm having a problem assigning markers to the mouth in face robot. I can assign them to everywhere else that they ask me to but everytime I get a message saying could not find a proper mouth interior. Please make sure the mouth interior is built to specifications. I tried regenerating the mouth but I still get this error message. 2012-11-27T13:12:20+02:00 Growing an tube http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/autodesk-softimage-2012/growing-an-tube/page-last/ http://area.autodesk.com/forum/autodesk-softimage/autodesk-softimage-2012/growing-an-tube/page-last/#When:08:06:55Z Hello, I would like to make the pipe of the picture to grow from bottom to top in an animation of softimage. I have created the pipe extruding a circle along a curve. I would like to know if there is any possibility in softimage to make the effect of appearing gradually from bottom to top like it is growing up and controlling in the frames that I want on the animation.
