Self-installable plugins otherwise known as callback heaven
February 27th, 2005 by Patrick Boucher. Viewed 2668 times.When the self-installable plugin reared it’’s head in XSI it blew me away! Gone were the days of all those plugin registration antics and on top of that the the SDK had a whole new branch that dealt with the dynamic creation of PPGs thus destroying the usefulness of SPDL, which in my book was a good thing - one less thing to learn.
If you aren”t allready using self-installables, you should. Hopefully this little case study of my publicly available PB_Render can give you a little hand in getting started. First of all we”ll look at what makes a self-installable plugin tick, then we”ll take a look at our practical example. We”ll then finish off with a little look at PPG control and access.
