Watching thru tutorials on Kent´s page, must say it´s really strong pack of tools. Export to pdf format is just "cherry on the cake" in this pack. Work with textures looks much more smoothly (megascans support great also), painting (standard or sculpting based brushes) itself is other great chapter...

Not exactly anagram related, but really supercool... http://oinon.net/blog/project/js-shuffletext/

I saw Rick´s presentation live on c4dlive and must say it was one of the best presentations (if not the best) of R19 features on event. Clear, very informative...

Thanks Kent for informations. Watching free pdf samples from your pages must say it´s perfect tool for presentations. A lot of possibilities to present model or scene to clients etc. Fill the space between them without needs to have demoversion/commercial version of c4d. Fast and simply presentation of model (wip or final). Amazing! ...This tool should be included inside c4d long time ago...

If I understood correctly, whole scene is like "embeeded" into pdf? (without link to .c4d scene) Did you tried it with massive scene? It could be very strong tool for creating presentations (only single model of building or complete city scene or whatever)

...breathtaking... ...super amazing work Dan, hope I´ll find it with little review on MAXON webpage.

Kent make great efforts to create this pack of tools, looking on it since anouncing somewhere in the past . (Times, when was 4d publish separated in two plugins). For me (as hobbiest) was interesting painter plugin...

Strongly agree with Regis´ words...

Another idea if I can... - asset scale adjusting options

Hello, In first example you have animation inside cloner, so this way can be delayed animation for cloner, but in second example you have driven animation for cloner outside of cloner, so cann´t be driven by effector growing delay. Solution can be bake loft inside cloner (now it´s cloned object animated by keyframes) and use formula delay effector... TimeOffsetWithFormula_DONT_0001.zip Simply set cloner to one single clone, open timeline, drag loft into timeline, from Functions select Bake objects and bake all parameters.If checked, copy of original object will be created under original in cloner hierarchy, but itś keyframed. Remove from cloner hierarchy original loft, disable xpresso for driving progress and press play with enabled formula effector ;-)

Hello Daniel, Sorry for late reply, there was problems with my internet provider... So, with rotation I was meant this... - rotation of whole model/asset before welding This is due different types of assets, because not everytime are "symetrical/rounded" and in case is asset like in example, library will fill so fast with 4x of the same object. In case we have option to rotate, there´s needed just single one model/asset...

Didn´t saw jed´s file, but I think it´s the same... (adjusted spline mapping to range min/max ///expand spline options///) range_mapper.zip

I was meant not kept basis edge points, but rotate also with model asset. In video when you applied rotation parameter I was seen (if correct) was rotated only all other points of asset instead of basis points (edges connected to "center of model" was rotated)

Great job Daniel like always, few questions/ideas... - there will be more than 2 by 2 segments on basis assets in the future? (similar like in Polystein Kit, basis 1x1, 1x2, 2x3 etc...) - rotation whole asset/model around own axis (not without basis edge points, ment 90/180/270/360 degrees /// ofcourse on 1x1 or 2x2 or 3x3 basis) - adding option for direct editing of inserted asset (selected just model of asset/all points/ all polygons of asset, inserted modeling axis at the basis of inserted asset etc...)

...or try this link and click fullscreen, adjust quality... http://www.ustream.tv/embed/23347051?html5ui&autoplay=true&showtitle=false works nicely on firefox for me...

... or check if restriction to polyselection don´t work...

Yes, there´s around month of time to make a decision (time between announcing new version and sale start). My MSA also expired last month. I was paid immediately as I got offer from my local distributor, but as owner of newest release you can buy MSA before start sale of new release. When new version is on the market, you need to upgrade first for "full" upgrade price and only as owner of latest release you can buy MSA for next release...

Only few days and many questions will be answered...

I´m afraid not... Another not good idea is making some changes/big changes in user data items. Since they are/have own unique ID´s while creating, can produce some unexpected behaviours (not working xpresso at all). Better is create new user data item and relink in xpresso editor (imo)...

remove object node from your xpresso... (cann´t imagine what kind of data hold undefined object. Maybe you have created some dummy object as bounding box or some kind of numeric value for HUD...)

Looks like some kind of bug with using HUD slider and slider in attribute manager... HUD slider is just as an helper, simply remove it from screen, and animate value parameter or attach to time (as in Nigel´s video)

here is file... counter.zip last digit work the same way as others

Nigel/3DKiwi has nice tutorial about this kind of counter... Just simple update and work for you as needed...

Do you mean like this? Untitled 2.zip The key to make it works is enabled option "Use Deformed Points" in xpresso point node... (for splines render used hair, just to mentioned...)

Did you tried cross-eyed? :DDD
