Hello,

thanks for trying.

sorry, lack of explaination.
this script is Polygonobj script, so please place it into scripts/Polygonobj Folder.

I can't get it to work aswell...

Dear tg_jp

I tried loads of different settings and the best I can get is this...

using the latest C3D version

Am I missing a simple trick here !?

same result

funny, i used exactly the same geometry as luke to test and got exactly the same result. plus, as i navigated around the window the distribution of the boxes seemed to change....any hints about what might be done to fix this?

thks

Hello, All.

thanks for trying. so, this script ignore position / rotation / scale of both Objects (profile and copied). I post fixed new one, please download new one again.

> hi, aelstein.

I think you checked 'variation' or lower than 1.0 for 'copy' parameter. both use Random value for calculation at each refreshing time.

so if you want to fixed, make editable to Point Array object.
actually, I add this for fake blink animation like illumination.

copy:0.5 -> 50% copy, 1.0 -> 100% (random profile point)
posx,y,z:0.1 -> move copied object 0.05 - -0.05 (randomly)
scalex,y,z:0.1 -> scale copied object 90% - 100% (randomly)

> hi, Eureka!

for fake light object ( emitting object ), you can use Solid Color or Material (bright Emittance color) with radiosity rendering.

regards.

Great thanks so much Hiroto - it works perfect now

Fantastic again!

EDIT: Hiroto have you ever played with the Unity game engine? I think you would love its scripting capabilities.
