any suggestions?

I’ve working 2 years on DonkeyXote feature film, doing almost all camera projections (and their mattepaintings) of the film, mainly for grounds and sets, and I know very well how tricky It can turn, using default xsi’s camera projection. And now you come with this piece of heaven!! Damn, we’ve already finished the film :D

I mean, I love it, incredible stuff, with an incredible set of options and parameters. A must for next version of XSI.

people, respect this guy.
Thank you,
Diego

Thanks

This is an incredibly fun plugin, Helge! Thanks again for putting it out to the public!

I’m gettting the following error message when trying to run the script from the “MT_Camera_Proj” toolbar…

// ERROR : Object expected - [line 1]
// ERROR : (Microsoft JScript runtime error)
// ERROR : >[1] mt_apply_cameraProj();
// ERROR : Object expected

Here’s a simple setup JScript which gets me to the point of pushing the “Camera Projection” button from your toolbar:

NewScene(null, null);
CreatePrim(”Torus”, “MeshSurface”, null, null);
ApplyShader(”Lambert”, “”, null, “”, siLetLocalMaterialsOverlap);
ToggleSelection(”Camera”, null, null);

I’m certain I’m missing something very simple, but I don’t know what it is. Both the camera and object are selected, but I stilll error out.

Any help you could point my way would be terrific!

Thanks!

no time no see. U still in the states? nice plugin will help me to with my matte paintings :D

Now that stuff like roadkill makes seamless UV sets easy to create
it´s probably just a matter of time that people are asking why there
aren´t more elaborate ways to project UV´s onto surfaces and bake
the result to another, clean UV set for further use. It´d be great not
to be limited to a fixed set of shapes/texturesupports, e.g. planes, cubes,
spheres, cylinders, cameras and so forth but instead just model what fits
the shot and have a shader that makes it easy to transfer those UVs,
the resulting texture or whatever else like gradients for anglecalculations
to other objects sucessively added to a shot or swapped due to changes
without having to redo any projection linking at all but just assigning a
shader for further use.

Cheers

If I understand what you’re doing, a person could set up multiple cameras with
images of different angles of the face, for instance, and surround a head-model
with appropriate textures…then run a rendermap (supposing the head had proper
UVs already) of the model?

Many many thanks!
