Spotlight: Señor Casaroja's Noesis

[djmauro]

Is there any actual documentation for the noesis specific python commands.
I cant find anything really.

Like for example - im trying to read in 4x4 matrix - but i have no idea if there is some existing functions already
in some scripts i see :

Code: Select all

NoeMat44.fromBytes(self.inFile.readBytes(64)).toMat43()

- but i don't want to convert it to 4x3 - if that's what it does( no idea- cant find any documentation).

noesis uses 4x3 matrix for skeletons.
just remove .toMat43() to keep it 4x4
all the commands are listed in __NPReadMe.txt
and if you need specific conversions look in
inc_noesis.py

[djmauro]

weird. i removed the to ... part - thinking that would be the case.. but the
rapi.rpgSetTransform(Matrix)

gives invalid matrix runtime error.

Code: Select all

Matrix = NoeMat44.fromBytes(self.inFile.readBytes(64))

Also - is there anything for bones when its basically as
2
Bip01 L Calf
Bip01 L Foot

1
Bip01 L Foot
"no value"

etc. There is no other bone data.
Looking at the readme and such i just noticed stuff that deals with weights and such - actual bone data (its separate for that game).

[chrrox]

well noesis expects a 4x3 matrix for all transforms.
and it auto converts 4x4 matrix correctly to 4x3 witht he .toMat43

it looks like they are giving you bone parenting information
like first name is the bone
2nd name is the parent.

But you are better off making a thread asking about your game with samples then posting here.

[djmauro]

will do.

So noesis itself accepts 4x3 matrices.

Also does noesis have some kind of console like option to print variables etc to for testing/debugging?

Call noesis.logPopup() at any given time, or you can just write a 6-line tool script to register a tool that invokes it so that you can bring it up from the Tools menu if you want.

Is there possibly a bug in the recursive option of the batch process.

When batch exporting .mdl to .fbx choosing a root folder with the recursive option on. The batch process (randomly it seems) misses some folders.
But I haven't detected a pattern, and it also doesn't happen every time.

The same issue occurs when batch converting .vtf to .tga.

Would be grateful if you could look at it.

I've never encountered this behavior, it'd be useful if you could give me more specifics or especially a repro case.

I will try to reproduce the problem and submit details about the case (since it seems to be random so far, I have yet to reproduce a case, but will let you know as soon as I stumble upon it again).

Kind Regards

What happened? oasis.xentax.com is down? Where can I get the latest updates of Noesis now?

just check updates using the program it uses rich's site not xentax.
