Tom

Thanks Rob for providing the material!!

very cool!

Thanks for the tute! I was having trouble creating exr files in either v15 or v19 so it's good to know I'm not crazy ...

Interesting.....glad you reported the bug!

Rob...I finally figured everything out. It was user error on my part and I futzed around until everything clicked. Thanks for deciphering the plugin ...it has real potential! T

Having trouble trying to reproduce the effects we saw with the Sumi plugin during the tutorial. I can't even get the window to open up where the user gets to play with the Sumi properties sliders!!! Yikes...I try double clicking on every line in the Project Workspace area but no window comes up...How do you get the Sumi editing window to appear? I did find the "save as animation" line ... but when I render out the images they are just blank that show no sumi effects at all. User error obviously... Attached is the project if anyone can pinpoint any errors, it would be much appreciated

Great tutorial in unraveling that Sumi still works. Thanks Rob! Quick question....What line in the project workspace do you right click on ... for the composite to be exported? Thanks!

here it is Sumi Tutorial.doc

Hello- SumiV15Test.prjHere is a suggestion for the question of the day. Trying to use the Sumi PlugIn for V15 and am not sure whether I am doing the procedure incorrectly or whether the plugin Simply doesn't work anymore with this version.

Did a follow up test with three meshes, Blue is 4 patches, Red is 25 patches and Yellow is 100 patches. All three responded to a Force...so not sure why the other "Magician Trick" handkerchiefs didn't work with a low mesh model. Another mystery of AM.... Thanks for sharing your stuff Andy! MeshTest.mp4

Maybe this project can serve as a starter question. Attached is a project that I can't get to work. Pretty simple really ...three handkerchiefs are supposed to fly out of magic hat. No matter how big the force, they simply fall down...hmmmm MagicTrick.prj

thanks...no rush...those are valuable documents for the AM community!

I was looking for the tutorial on October 3....the one that went into CP weighting and smartskin. I'll keep checking to see if it is available.

thanks!

I think your idea of having objects appear sequentially is brilliant but I can't seem to get it to work. Here is a embedded project of a top hat with things appearing, but they seem unaffected by the force. Any suggestions? TopHat.prj
