Hi Lorenzo,azzolini wrote:Hi,
I am using your I/Ogre ,the registered one ( bought a few days ago).
I am able to import mesh and export as well but when i want to export skeleton a problem arise always.
For example if I import a Jaiqua.mesh and skeleton and then try to export I always get the message...
telling me that I am exportin a skeleton but the plugin failed to find 'Figure Export Tag'
Obiouvsly I set up the Figure Export tag and the Clip tag but I was never been able to export.
Where am I wrong?
In effect my intention would be 'only' to export simple translation\rotation\scaling animation
and I was trying to figure out the concept of exporting animation but as I sad ..I could not try.
Thank
Lorenzo
Have you read through the included .pdf documentation file? There is a fairly detailed section on Exporting (starting at pg. 40) - including a checklist of items/issues to be aware of before Exporting (pg. 46).
But assuming you have read through all of that, the only thing I can think of off hand is...
The "Figure Export Tag" (the dog-bone looking tag) must be attached to a "root lvel" object within the C4D Object Manager hierarchy tree (in the above example, this would likely be a Null object, named "Jaiqua"). Again, there are example screen-shots in the documentation that help illustrate this (see page 30 of the documentation). Actually, if you have successfully Imported the Jaiqua figure and skeleton using the I/Ogre plugin, then you should already have the correct structure / layout for Exporting. What might cause that to fail is if you then moved the resulting structure under an additional Null object or something (so that it was no longer at the root level of the hierarchy tree).
I don't mean my reply to be "read the instructions"... I just spent a good amount of time trying to detail all that information in the manual and I don't know of any better way of explaining it than I already did in there, so I just want to make sure that you've already read through that.
If you are still having trouble, could you send me a sample .c4d file that you are having trouble with? (typhoon [AT] jetbroadband [DOT] com)
