Hi everybody!!

I'm going to start to learn Moi3D and I'd like to know how I can install Node Editor in MoI3D. Moreover, I'll be really appreciate who can help me to get some tutorials for beginners.


Many Thanks!!

Hi Jose, welcome to MoI! There is some information on the node editor collected here: http://moi3d.com/wiki/Nodeeditor . But I don't think there are any tutorials available. Just to be clear, the node editor is not a standard part of MoI, it is a custom extension that's been developed by a third party (Max Smirnov).

Welcome Jose,

First go to Max's archive http://moi.maxsm.net/nodeeditor/
& download latest version of nodeEditor "nodeeditor.v.1.0.rc3.2018.03.09.zip"

Then follow INSTALLATION instructions found here: http://moi3d.com/wiki/Nodeeditor

There are a couple of troubleshooting forum threads:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=9172.1
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=8701.4

Only after you are familiar with the UI and core set of nodes
should you consider installing growing set of user mod nodes:
http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=9358.1

This step entails replacing original "nodeeditor" folder with one in unzipped download.
It is worth skimming through http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=7777.1
There are lots of .nod files attached to posts, but be aware that those in the first half of this long thread
will be out-of-date and will not run in latest version of NE.

Good luck with everything, & don't be afraid to ask questions here.
Hope this helps,
James

Hi guys,

I've tried to instal Nodeeditor but I haven't good luck.
I've read all post about the installation and I culdn't install. It appears a blank window. I've followed each step but I don't know whats wrong. Someone know where is the mitake?

Thanks for your understanding!

Hi Jose, so it's a couple different things there. The main thing is that you can only use the appdata installation for MoI v4 but it looks like you're using MoI v3 there.

For MoI v3 copy it into C:\Program Files (x86)\MoI 3.0\ui\nodeeditor

Then the shortcut to launch it should look like this:
moi.ui.createDialog( 'nodeeditor/index.html', 'resizeable,defaultWidth:680,defaultHeight:420', moi.ui.mainWindow );


For v4 you can put it in the appdata folder, which you can get to by %appdata%\Moi in the file explorer address bar, that will expand to:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Moi

And for v4 you would use shortcut key you have.

Does that get you set up?

Hi Jose,
I've been having fun/frustration re-installing everything, using my hazy memory :-)

For MoI3, For the "Light" colored version of nodeeditor, a second hotkey can be created with the following command:

moi.ui.createDialog( 'nodeeditor/index.html?scheme=Light', 'resizeable,defaultWidth:680,defaultHeight:420', moi.ui.mainWindow );

I really like the Light version.
I'm using hotkery Ctrl+Alt+M for the light version, and
Ctrl+Alt+N for the standard "dark" version.

ps, If you are installing for MoI4beta, I see that you have the nodeeditor directory up two folder levels from where it should be.

The Path is .....AppData\Roaming\Moi\nodeeditor. (Windows 10)
For MoI4beta the hotkey script agrees with the one you showed. There is also a light version of a hotkey.

Please specify if you are using MoI3, or MoI4beta.

In Windows 10 file explorer, I created a Library link straight to ...Roaming/Moi, for quick access to the AppData information for MoI4Beta, and nodeeditor files, such as Macros and node extensions...
