Great work, flexible and fast. Definitely one of my most used plugins.
There is one problem I have with it from time to time and that is that it does not update sometimes when using animated textures. Here's my setup in 2011 OSX:
Ramp > color gain of a File Texture > Projection > DisplaceD
It shows up in the viewport and will update when you change the value of the ramp and/or texture. But if I animate it over time and scrub through the timeline or playblast, displaceD does not update. It will only update when I go to a specific frame.
A different setup that wasn't working in the past I've gotten to work by adding a ramp node in between like this. File Texture > Ramp > DisplaceD
I need to use a projection and am not having any luck, any ideas anyone?
EDIT: Thanks to the speedy response by the community I've figured it out on my own. DisplaceD does not like a projection going directly into it if things feeding that projection are animated. Gotta re-arrange and use other combination of nodes to get the same result.
I would like to instal this onto my mac running Maya 2011, but all I have is a .bundle file. Can't locate the .mll for the plug-in folder in this download. Please help.
*Update* No worries, figured it out. =) All works! Thanks.
hey
first of all, thanks for the great plugin,
is there any chance that you share the source? because i think sharing the source will be a very nice way to help people learn how to develop new deformers within API.
thanks
