hessi Posted March 17, 2008 Report Posted March 17, 2008 ok what do you think? wouldnt it be nice to have a working HL2 exporter for maya version greater than 7.0? and one that works with EP2 and EP1 content? and that works under windows vista?
e-freak Posted March 17, 2008 Report Posted March 17, 2008 best ever on the engine-switching: I would save the details for that stuff in an easy accessable txt file (or cfg whatever) so you can easily adapt to randomly changing directory-structures

Pericolos0 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Posted March 18, 2008 cool stuff =). That credit tab is really really stupid though. Switch to another engine if you really hate valve that much!
wacko Posted March 19, 2008 Report Posted March 19, 2008 cool stuff =). That credit tab is really really stupid though. Switch to another engine if you really hate valve that much! he speaks the truth in the pipeline sucking and I fund the credits tab be informational. Valve has always lacked in providing any sort of tools that make stuff like this easier. I support such a project and hope in the end it actually gets finished.
⌐■_■ Posted March 19, 2008 Report Posted March 19, 2008 i actually think this is one of the scarse ways devs can give feedback in a way it reaches both professional developers and amateurs..
Defrag Posted March 20, 2008 Report Posted March 20, 2008 Looks good. The credit tab makes you look really childish though, regardless of whether there's any truth in it (which there is [the pipeline / tools being sub-par])
robert.briscoe Posted March 23, 2008 Report Posted March 23, 2008 Nice one! Fancy making one for Max too?

Psy Posted March 23, 2008 Report Posted March 23, 2008 ...but you don't get the QC generator with the Max plugin.
hessi Posted March 24, 2008 Author Report Posted March 24, 2008 since i started working on some code fragments, this shall be my next project. a working 1 click exporter for maya. what did i do today: - implement the base of the "generateQC" MEL command. the syntax is set and works. - the GUI is partially connected to MEL commands which do the dirty work (those come with my Plugin) what will my next steps be: - connect the generateQC MEL command to the gui which basically means querying attributes - write wrapper MEL commands for vtex and studiomdl including their parameters - connect these commands to the full compile procedure and do some dummy compile (which includes: VMT generation, traversing the DAG and scanning for attribute connections within the materials)
