Yes, i have tried and sett it of that and i am able to start Node Editor and use it all without any problems so the shortcut command is no a problem.

The only thing is that when i Right mouse button click in the Node editor i can access and create Nodes but when i click on Macro i just get that error instead.
It seems like it might be some bug or something because i did try some of older version of Node Editor, v0.9 i think, and there was no errors. In Node Editor v1+ i am getting that error problem.

Hi klaudio, having it in appdata will only work with v4, that's new in v4 that you can have URLs with moi://appdata in them.

The error you're getting for the Macro problem seems to be something about it trying to use a moi://appdata URL there, so I'd guess that the Macro mechanism is only working right now with v4 and not with v3.

I'd recommend trying it with v4 and see if it then works ok for you, you can get v4 at http://moi3d.com/beta.htm .

Hi klaudio, maybe it can be fixed for v3 - try editing nodeeditor\core\main.js and find the lines where the error is happening:

code:
	var dir = (moi.filesystem.getAppDataDir)?moi.filesystem.getAppDataDir:moi.filesystem.getProcessDir;
	var path = dir()+document.URL.split(/moi:\/\/appdata\/(.*\/).*/g)[1].replace(/\//g,"\\")+"macros\\";


Maybe this is assuming that it's using a moi://appdata address for this dialog.

Try editing to something like this:

code:
	//var dir = (moi.filesystem.getAppDataDir)?moi.filesystem.getAppDataDir:moi.filesystem.getProcessDir;
	//var path = dir()+document.URL.split(/moi:\/\/appdata\/(.*\/).*/g)[1].replace(/\//g,"\\")+"macros\\";
	var path = 'C:\\Program Files (x86)\\MoI 3.0\\ui\\nodeeditor\\macros\\';


I have not tested it but that might get it working with v3.

Hi Michael,

This actually worked! The Macro is now working properly and everything is ok!

Thank you very much for this! ;)

When clicking for Macro in MoI3 nodeeditor, I had the same error message as klaudio, with slightly different line numbers. (Windows 10)
After modifying main.js in MoI3 nodeeditor program, (C:\Program Files x86...) with Michaels mode code, (two comment outs and an added line,),
the Macro menu seems to be working. (very Limited testing).

After backing up the above mentioned main.js file, the modification was done in NotePad++.
The commented out lines were numbers 4481 and 4482, with new line added at line 4483.
To fine the line numbers, the NotePad++ command Ctrl+H (extremely useful) was used with Replace/Find What : "var dir"

I guess that probably the nodeeditor macro "path incompatibility" with MoI 3 was introduced by Max's upgrade last winter/January+/-.
Since I use MoI4 beta now, and rarely MoI3, I had not noticed the error message.

Thanks Michael

Finally!!!
After years of (almost) unheeded requests, someone did it :)

Thanks a lot James for your new POST about Node Editor :)

Marco,
I'm glad this made you happy. In fact I did think of you when I was posting.

I have been thinking about you recently, or rather your SelectCurvesByContainer script.
Would it be a lot of work to wrap it into a node?

I only ask because I think it would be a real boon for NE. What do you think?

Anyway all the best,
James

Thank a lot James for your kind words :)

@You "I only ask because I think it would be a real boon for NE. What do you think?"

Unfortunately, as you can see, recently and during the whole 2018 (and now) I almost abandoned all my practicing and working and studying of the 3D world (both modelling and rendering) because actually I really have no free extra time to devote to this things :)

Actually almost all 3D things are really boring for me and I returned to my very first love in CG: studying and practicing 2D freehand digital painting (Photoshop on PC and Procreate on my iPad Pro).

Bu, with that said, as you can see, I sometimes take a look at this forum to see what's going on, for example new announcements from Michael or your wonderful creations with the Node Editor :)

You're doing great things with that tool!

Congrats!

Have a nice day.

Grid lattice where connecting lines remain consistent in curveLength & consequently contract as curvature increases.

Hi All,

Inspired by the shade system of the Al Bahr Towers.

Greenline is 3d helical curve attractor.

Haves a great weekend

A "green blobby brain" ?

Wonderful experiments!!

Thanks Marco,

The selection of green was an allusion to "The Hulk", but yes brainy as well.

The key to both these experiments is simple maths applied to z input of your "pointExt" node.
Neither would be possible without your contribution, so...
Thank you!
