Plug Dev for NT
Message #181793
What are the plans for releasing plugin development documentation and software or the NT environment. We have aborted the PharLap development in preference to the NT environment and await with interest the tools to develop plugins for 3DS future releases for NT. I will be attending Siggraph '95 will any…
Alan and Everyone on this thread…. It was great to have you all visit FL last year….and I look forward to LA this year. On the subject of parties…it is a tradition that the the local chapters booth at each siggraph convention maintains a database of all parties. Feel free…
Miho, It comes as a seperate disk with animator pro 1.3a, it's also available in the libraries here in a beta upgrade from the file name aaplay.zip. You can use it as a windows app, it creates it's own group and icon. If you need to call it from a…
FYI… If you have the same question as I….see vbplay.txt in the libraries…. Steve Pidgeon Pulse Productions Tampa, FL
Thanx to all who responded…. The answers are in an autodesk doc called vbplay.txt in the libraries. The doc spells out how to make aaplay.dll calls from visual basic in great detail. Good Document ….. maybe it should be keyworded under aaplay.dll. It's under aaplay….as a keyword now. Thanx for…
Thanx to all who replied….. FYI for anyone seeking the same info….. There is a file called vbplay.txt in the libraries that fully details the use of aaplay.dll by Visual Basic…. Thank you autodesk…it's a great document. Steve Pidgeon Pulse Productions Tampa, FL
Nik, It dawns on me that everyone is probably at the last day of the developers conference…. If you have any ideas on how I could find out the commands within aaplay.dll I would appreciate the leads…. I suppose that they are "load" "play" "pause" "unload" etc….but need firm docs…
Thanx Nik…. Actually, what might be more helpful today is to know who has taken over Chris Allis' role. I'm a registered multimedia developer…and would like to contact that group for some support before the end of the working day…. As I mentioned earlier…this is urgent from our viewpoint…. Could…

WIN32 & PLUGINS
Message #157675
Hi, I've received some preliminary announcements about a development meeting in San Francisco in the future. I wonder, will this seminar cover the issue of writing Plug-Ins for NT in sufficient detail to allow a developer to return from the meeting with the tools necessary to develop for the new…

PAR/Lantastic 6.0
Message #127300
Upgrading hassle: Added a PAR to network and upgraded to Lantastic 6.0 Incident: PAR operates correctly for the exception of importing .TGAs from any drive when the network is up. It will import the same files it gave corrupt or incompatible error messages for from it's own C: drive, when…

A better story….yes A better time…..hmmmm…..Hard one to call. Glad I was at Howling at the Moon. Steve
John and fellow theaders et. al. Thought I'd rejoin this thread just to say…. In my humble opinion nothing is more aethestic than the visualization of pure mathematics. So I guess you know from that remark that if they were still showing the billionth rerun of the inside out circle…
John, I enjoyed our time together, and meeting your father. He's practically a neighbor down in Miami. Regarding the Electronic Theater…Imagine 7,000 people flying an airplane together, skiing the slopes, or submarining for eggs in 3D! And we did it so well… The pong champions! And to think before that…
James, The Convention was a geat success and a wonderful party. What a great industry! Steve Pidgeon Pulse Productions
Wade, SIGGRAPH 94 was great fun! It was a pleasure to meet you. Great times! Great stories! Great advancements in our craft! What could be better? Well, if Lee didn't sink his boat with Greg Pyros in the Florida deluge off Egmont key… things may have been a little better……
Alan, It was a real pleasure getting together on several occasions during SIGGRAPH 94. You and Martin make not only top animations, but journalism seems to be in your blood as well… Speaking of things in your blood…. take it easy on the schnapps…. I read those words recently from…
Martin, And then there was that night at "Howling at the Moon" at Church Street Station… It was a pleasure meeting you. 🙂 Steve Pidgeon Pulse Productions
Alan: Spoken like a true veteran! 🙂 Steve
Gus, Or we're open for tips on getting the PharLap debugger going…l we are VERY receptive to alternatives… I'm feeling like a gypsy, migrating all over the place in the final hours of productions before delivery. All your thoughts are welcome… Steve
Jonas, We've added kxp.c to the remote 3ds3 directory, and now get the main source, still working on getting the ekg_i,kxp source…. If only this was horseshoes,…. or love. 🙂 We will get it…..but not without help. Steve
Gus, Always appreciate your insights….Like the Great Karnac… Can you hold this message to your forehead and tell me why my remote debugging doesn't work? 🙂 Actually, I posted a message to Jonas on the subject. Would appreciate it if you had a moment to take a look at the…
#Metaware mdb remote
Message #112902
Jonas, Hello again. We have opted for remote debugging with the Metaware debugger. We've followed the installation instructions from Metaware and the Autodesk README.DOC for the IPAS3 Toolkit. Currently, we are able to "run386 mon 2 9600" successfully on monitor system mdb on remote system load "3ds.exe" (if we're in…

#MM Developer Forum?
Message #112701

Staying tuned…. Thank you.

Thanx. I concur with the the John in the previous post in this thread. I got Jeffreys name from the notice section on contributions. The section is not current with the existing library structure. "If it ain't one thing its a nudder" Rosaine Rosainiadana
#Library Contribution
Message #112380
I've asked folks about the delay in my library contribution, they tell me contributions go to a hidden file, that the sysop needs to check and release. I assume this is the case with my contribution. Please release it at your earliest convenience.
Ken, >>Why are you moving to MetaWare? What is the critical issue?
Ken, >>Why are you moving to MetaWare? What is the critical issue? The critical issue is that you cannot use the Watcom Video Debugger from 9.5. And with regards to 10, even though the debugger is significantly different, you can't use it either. The issue is, that a trap file…
New KXP: Exponential Key
Message #112162
PULSE PRODUCTIONS IPAS3 Exponential Key Generator KXP Exponential Keyframe Generator KXP is an IPAS3 KXP that generates a sequence of exponential keyframes for any camera, object, light or dummy object in Autodesk 3D Studio R3 and above. See EXPONKXP.ZIP in the IPAS Usage Library section for a discussion, example file,…
Jonas, (in regards to the trap files needed to use Watcom Video Debugger for 9.5:) you wrote: >I can say that Autodesk spoke with Watcom and reviewed the legal issues >regarding releasing the .TRP internals to us. In terms of future availability, >Autodesk does not discuss future products, shipdates or…
Jonas, You wrote: >In terms of support, Autodesk Multi Media Product Support will only support the >listed compilers. This is because only these compilers have gone through our QA >cycle. Can you give me an update on the .TRP development for WATCOM 9.5 issue? Last time you and talked it…
Ken, I think it is significant to point out that until Autodesk or Watcom write the required .TRP files for Watcom you will not be able to debug your IPAS with the Watcom debugger. There is a significant difference between the debugger on 9.5 (Video) and the new one on…
