| Useful
macros and javascripts archive
Here we are going to make a collection
of macros that users have sent in, along
with a collection of Javascripts and Building
Blocks files.
MACROS
These can be loaded into Realsoft 3D natively
- simply load the file, check the "selected
items only" checkbox, and select "Macros"
only, turn off REPLACE checkbox and load.

Split face - map macro
D/L
macro |
|
Here's
how to use it. Take your sds object
in polygonal mode that you want to
texture map individual faces for and
select the faces you want to detach
in edit face mode. ( I found detaching
faces individually and applying maps
was the best way to get control over
tiling etc for building models). Apply
the macro "SDS-face-detach-map"
(or something like that). I recommed
binding it to a key combination like
<alt>-d or -m. It will make
a duplicate of the sds object, create
an input plane based on the selected
face, invert selected faces and destroy
extraneous faces, then start parallel
mapping the object. Go to the context
bar and pick the material you want,
then draw the mapping object with
point snapping to the desired area.
Then you'll probably want to go back
to the
original object and delete the face
you split off.

Javascript
These are scripts that need to be either
run as Realsoft 3D files or placed into
the /Realsoft3d/Scripting directory.
| Constraint
methods
D/L
scripts |
|
this package
supplies 4 new constraint methods:-
- Position constraints
- Constrains source objects to targets
based on their position, changing
the 'Density' of the targets to
zero disables the targets effect
(useful for animating characters
picking objects up).
- Look at constraints
- Constrains the source objects
to look at the target, useful for
tracking turrets, security cameras
or eyeballs.
- Orientation constraints
- Constrains the source objects
to have the average rotation of
the target objects. Useful for rotating
wheels.
- Caterpillar constraints
- Constrains a chain of objects
to follow one another around, useful
for water droplets.

Sun
& Moon calculator
D/L
scripts |
|
Have you
ever needed to put the sun in a scene
to work out shadows at certain times
of the year ? I certainly do. Sadly,
this feature is sorely missed in Realsoft
(Its built into most 3D applications)
- So I pestered Frank, and he came
up with this amazing script ! To make
it work for your region, you will
need your longitute and lattitude.
To find this out - try this link.
Top marks from me ! Many thanks Frank
! - Bernie B)
"Just put the r3d file in your
layers directory and the js file in
your scripting directory.
You need to load the SunMoonScene
layer first then run the script. You
can replace anything in the scene
all you need is the Sun and the moon
levels, the objects in these must
be in the north position and level
with the plane." Another hint
- you can replace the spot light with
a direction light for consistent shadows.

Building Blocks VJS
These are files that the plugin Building
Blocks uses - source code so users
can modify the Javascript codes easily.

- Included is the Javascript
version as well as the Building
Blocks file.

SHELLS
D/L
zip |
|
Frank has
created this beaut conversion utility:
- This is a tool for converting
Shells created
with the ShellyLib program
and saved in RPL to JavaScript so
they can be used in RS3D if you
don't have Real3D.
