Anaglyph Previewer

I have repackaged the whole thing just to make it easier ...download link at the top :-)

Cheer !!

Thank you so much! Everything works! :)

Ho, then you can download the file "Anaglyph_Previewer_1_03_74_fix.rar" a couple of post bellow which contain the exact same dll file or use sharpdevelop to compile the assembly !!

edit : in this case you have to change the version number at line 3 of the script file from 72 --> 74

Sorry mate , you where absolutely right ...I tested it on my system and it appear it was not working at all but I found back the right version (and actually tested it this time :-) so now everything should work :-)

Thanks for the help, but could not you compile .dll? I have not been established Visual Studio...

ok got it ,

if you are getting this error, it can only mean one of the following :

1 : the assembly failed to load into 3dsmax namespace, so you have to make sure the .dll is located in
the same directory as the main script file as stated before, then restart 3dsmax and try again. if it still don't work, you can try specifying the direct path to the assembly at line 19 and comment/delete the line bellow.

2:the namespace of the assembly has changed, in this case you need to provide line 119 with correct path to create the form!

Hope this help,
Martin

Ho , almost forgot ... if you are building the assembly, you have to make sure the version number match with the one from maxscript ...this may be why your getting this error ???

I just noticed that I left some edit I made before I post it ...just remove the "::" at line 15 else it wont work :-)

Hello, started your plugin on 3dsmax 2011 x64, and got an error. Screenshot of error attached. I would be very grateful if you help. I'd like to try your plugin!

Hi Vistadimix,

Have you tried to change the version number at line 3 ...change the 72 part for a 74 also make sure the main .dll file is located in the same directory as the main script file !

Ho ! found it back :-)

since I won't update it anymore , I'll leave it here in case someone want to mess with it ....just don't look to much at the code was one of my first test :-)

Best regard,
Martin

Here it is ....you can change the version number at the top to match the version of the assembly your using !!!
Cheer :-)

I don't think I'll be updating this one with new feature or anything since I don't have the assembly anymore but I can fix the script to work with 2011 ...which version r u using ?

this script is really amazing! any chances that you might develop this one for max2011?

so here the fix, still not sure if it really work ...let me know!!

Martin

well, it does work :-)

edit: in win7 at least so I guest it will work in vista also ...what I'll do is to modify the version .69 to integrate this, since .72 is not stable enough !

also since 3dsmax is the host process I'm pretty sure it will fail...

ok, this look promising...unfortunatly no vista to test on ...

I don't think I can fix this...well maybe I could find a workaround ...but only got xp64 to test on, and my computer doesn't like vista I crash at the logo screen with random green square flashing everywhere :-P

but I'll do some more search, maybe someone else already found a solution !!

yay. switching from aero to classic design worked. cool. too bad it doesn't work with aero-design though, can you fix that?

hum, unfortunately no, I'm using win32 bitblt, are u sure you switched off the style , use something like classic style or I don't really know what they call it in vista maybe even do a reboot may help !

no, i'm using win Vista. Turning glass mode off didn't help. But i discovered that viewport.getviewportDib() doesn't work properly on my computer. gw.getviewportDib() however does. If that is part of your script it might be a clue.

Ho well, max won't start in vm and I dont have any spare hd to boot from ...anyway I think the main problem is the skin that they put that prevent capture from working ...I remember that I read this somewhere but I don't remember if it got a solution ...maybe you could try shuting down glass style and see if it help !!!

I haven't got a chance to test under win7 I assume it win7?
anyway I'll do some test in vm later on ... have you tried in 32bit to see if it work ?

Martin

nope I still don't get a working preview. All i get is either a black or grey area. If i hover with my mouse over some object the tooltip with it's name appears and stays. Look here (http://img205.imageshack.us/img205/9361/previewer.jpg).
The upper right viewport does flicker, though.

Sorry for mistaking your feature for a bug :-D

I forget to tell that you need to have a valid camera selected ...that maybe why your not getting any drawing ...and for the detaching menu, it not a bug it a feature :-)
you can double click to close it:-)

regard,
Martin

Hi 3dhippie,

humm, that weird I use 2010 x64 too and it working fine!

fix custom rig is a function that fix custom stereo cam to work with the script.

I've got an update on the way for this one but it not entirely finished since I started working on another script... not every thing has been added back but should work I think....could you tell me if you get better result with this one instead ?

Martin

just stumbled over this script. looks very promising. Unfortunately, I can't get it to work. The Preview window is grey at all times. I'm using 3dsmax 2010 64bit. The buttons behave a little weird as well (The create new camera button is a transparent floating thing, that will stay at it's screen position until i type something and press return).Also, what does fix cutom rig do? Looking forward to getting this script to work :-)

I recommend that you do not use the camera from 1.03.62 it's for testing purpose only and it's still under dev, you can add your custom camera from the main menu ... I think it should work with pretty much any setup, let me know if it doesn't :-)

This is extremely useful for realtime stereoscopic feedback within 3ds max. Thanks

i'll keep an eye on this then script!

Here the new version ... the makepreview is not implemented yet, but almost anything else from the old version should work...

Hope you like it :-P
Martin

Thank arcane raven,

I've got an update almost ready for this one ...in fact I've redone it from scratch with a new faster& more accurate c# engine ...stay tuned :-)

Martin

I Would like to thank you, because I appreciate your hard work on this Script! Oh Your Spelling is great for English not being your primary language.

for those that have problem making their custom camera work with the script because of parameters wire, you need to make sure that the left cam of your setup is free to be moved around while still maintaining it original constrain. one way to do this is to add a position list with a free position controller on top, the following code snippet will do it for you :

select you left cam and execute

(
old_ctrl=$.position.controller
unlock_ctrl=position_xyz()
pos_list=position_list()
$.position.controller=pos_list
pos_list.delete 1
pos_list.available.controller=unlock_ctrl
pos_list.available.controller=old_ctrl
)

if not then contact me with a sample of your camera and I may be able to help you out.

Thank,
Martin Dufour

ok , last picture was a bit over exaggerated this one is more easy one the eye I think :-)

see what I mean :-)

 

the one I have right now are crap , it's a modifier nvidia stereo shutter glass in which I removed the shutter and replaced with plastic filter ...but I thing the color is not right !

I want good stereo glass ... what are the best glass when working with a computer lcd screen , can somebody help me , I want to be able to see what I'm doing in not anaglyph application without removing the glass every time ??

Oups sorry, wrong version ...1.02.31 is the one with channel swap ...my bad , I'll go get some sleep :-)

ok, license system was weak, thank to everyone that registred, now I know the mistake that I made and that's was the goal too :-P

The script is now entirely free and registration not required anymore ...here's a activation number everyone can use to activate :

FREE FREE
32924578013467902

edit : dont forget to press the get request button before entering the autorisation number!!

...now back to the drawing board :-)

thank fajar, that's devexpress component, it come with max since max9 or 2008 , can't remember it a bit more work to setup through :-)

edit : I linked a script to help you get started :-)

damn it MarTroYx, you have good and nice UI interface, just how you make it!? teach me!! is that compund from bitmap and dotnet or just purely dotnet or just bitmap!! ....
very nice good job done!

just added the description even if the name itself describe it well I think :-)
