additional requirements:
Installation for UU9
- UU9 has all prerequisites in place already
- Close trueSpace if it is open
- Find the plugin files Clintons3dPlugin.dll and Clintons3dRsView.dll in the tS install folder and remove or rename them to something like Clintons3dPluginOLD.dll and Clintons3dRsViewOLD.dll
- Copy the 2 rsx files into the tS install folder - and change the file extension from 'rsx' to 'dll'
- Unzip the sceneview2 folder and copy it into the tS main folder '.....\Scripts\UI\images\'
- start tS and drag the installer into the link editor and press the install button
installation instructions here:
- install prerequisites ... TBD
- drag into link editor and press the install button
- Unzip the sceneview2 folder and copy it into the tS main folder '.....\Scripts\UI\images\'
link to object stats here when it's ready
Can be used with the object stats script
Pre release notes
- icons act as rebuild branch buttons for parent node
- material assignment causes full tree rebuild
- code base only responds to selection changes and changes to the selected node - causes some limitations and performance issues
- another code base limitation - no access to notify messages, many tricks required to get past this
- duplicated 3d items will show as 3d groups until manual refresh
- object stats wont respond to primitive changes until the object is reselected
- new object stats installer will not alter the autokey node
- need update Clintons3dview entry, version ...410 - has the crash bug mentioned above,
also has improved edge count for object stats
pe selection edge count not fixed
- tree does not update when pressing the ''x' button to delete an unselected node
- not as hoped, a full replacement for built-in scene view
- need test with full uu9 see if slowdown after python editor like built in scene view - original reason for creating scene view 2
- matrix updates from scene view 2 and from webserver not the node view, web server updates less frequently
- all 3 update the mesh element counts
- hidden nodes will show in the tree
- D3D Texture render target has bone icon because of Root connector - probably other icon errors as well
- simple materials from old files will have the blank default icon
- tree controls can be non-responsive on first run - clears up after some use
- notes saved inside materials may not save to disk
Requires manual branch update
- add new primitive
- UU delete, plain delete is seen - script set to use plain delete
- copy
- ungroup 3d, ungroup 2d is ok
