Hello everyone, Just a short email to announce a first Beta version of ColladaMaya for COLLADA 1.4. There were just a few fixes, this week, related to ColladaFX and ColladaPhysics, done by Zhang and Christian. Overall, the plug-in should be very stable and quite capable. Please give it a try and send us your feedback! Please note that the plug-in supports both ColladaFX through the CgFX plug-in for Maya and the new ColladaFX plug-in for Maya, written by Zhang, available at: http://www.feelingsoftware.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=48& Itemid=69&lang=en You can download this new release here: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/colladamaya/ColladaMaya-0.86.zip?download Have a great week-end! Sincerely, Guillaume Laforte Feeling Software Inc http://www.feelingsoftware.com Recent Changes: __________________________________________________ 20/01/06 (Release 0.86) 17/01/06 (cla...@fe...) Physics: Use <half_extent> instead of <size> for physics boxes. Re-ordered some elements to respect the 1.4 schema. 16/01/06 (gla...@fe...) Merged in a fix from Kevin Thacker about the ordering of the UV sets. Merged in the Unicode-related changes to the FS import classes from the Viewer branches. 11/01/06 (cla...@fe...) Added a routine to insert child node sorted in alphabetical order of the element's name. Insert the physics scene and visual scene instances according to alphabetical sequence. Use <instance_physics_scene> instead of <physics_scene>. No longer prefix physics model references using "./". This fixes all of the physics validation problems with the nxTest1 test scene. Replaced <linear_velocity> by <velocity>. Fixed minor compilation errors related to Cg. Was able to succesfully export a few Nima scenes that didn't have constraints, including the carcrash demo. 10/01/06 (gla...@fe...) Merged in changes to the FS import classes from the FeelingViewer. (cla...@fe...) Physics: Since Collada 1.4 was fully ratified last week, I started to update ColladaMaya's physics export code to respect the latest schema. Lots of small details needed to be updated. Fixed export problems that cause schema validation errors, e.g. <time_step> instead of <timestep>, <gravity> comes before <time_step>, false instead of FALSE, true instead of TRUE, <technique_common> after <physics_models>. ______________________________________ Guillaume Laforte Feeling Software Inc. http://www.feelingsoftware.com |
