Brian,
You did ask how "I" did it though. Normally in MoI, if you wanted to move something, you would use the MoI command for Moving something:



It's pretty obvious what command in MoI "Moves" things. I think it is documented well also.

It just so happens that there's this really cool developer of third party apps for MoI Named Petr! I use some of HIS tools and I had to go out and get them and install them.

Do you have "Inagoni Shaders" for Carrara? I do. I had to go "Purchase" them from another web site and "Install" them into Carrara. There was documentation on how to install them as they didnt magically appear in the Carrara user interface when I gave them my credit card.

I also have "Archi Tools". Same process. There wasnt even any keyboard shortcuts in Carrara for me to use Archi Tools. I had to make my own.

Get it?

Oh Yeah,



Pretty Clear!!!

Thanks Burr

I am so sorry that Michael seems to take things as a personal "complaint" rather than "another point of view"--I ,really, am trying to help "understanding"-- SERIOUSLY--that I live through tomorrow is a miracle---I have no axe to grind---I have NO agenda!.

NOW -- I want to add that Z thing to do that thingy in your vid--and I have a "JS" thinghy and NO idea what to do with it next

Arrrrhhh

A good Aussie saying "bugger!"

Hi Brian, well do you have the file named Nudge.js ?

Can you copy that file into the commands folder? The commands folder for the new v2 beta is located here:

C:\Program Files\MoI 2.0 beta Jan-19-2009\commands


If you can do that step, then we can go to the next step with setting up the keyboard shortcuts.

If you do not understand how to copy a file to a certain folder, then there is not much hope to get it done I'm afraid!

If you think that copying a file is complicated, I sure don't understand how you've been able to learn how to do 3D modeling... It is amazing to me that you've made such progress doing 3D stuff (and you definitely have, your models have grown more sophisticated and cleaner over time) but get upset about copying a file!

I remember, back in the 1940s, when Algebra was added to our maths learning.
In the first three quarters of the year I was bottom of the class.
THEN it jelled!--and, at the end of the year, I was top of the class!

What was the "medium of understanding" that provided that "jell" factor?

ps More laughs about life!---I went on to enjoy playing around with Calculus.
BUT, the real laugh, in my very early 20s,---- in one of Aussies biggest companies,----
I was asked if I had an University education!

They asked, would you believe, because I regularly used a Slide Rule!

I AM NOT MAKING THAT UP!

Hi Michael

Yep, I've spent quite a bit of time polymodelling so fully understand its strengths and weaknesses against nurbs.

As far as wanting to do control point manipulation goes the main reason for wanting to use it is the standard nurbs tools can create most of surfaces I want quickly and efficiently but there are just a couple of surfaces that control point manipulation is the ideal solution to avoid a quilted patchwork of surfaces that don't have continuity.

While being able to add additional points on surface exactly where you need them would be fantastic I think adding extra rows of points would be fine. Also having a type of specialised control point manipulation/tweaking tools would be good also. Anyway well wait to see what you come up with in future versions of MoI in this regard.

Indeed

thanks Michael, I'm learning something every day here..
