Hello, i remember that the script worked fine years ago when i made it for maxwell v3 but i don't know why it didn't work now,
the new material added to the new scene but for grass nothing change.
What i miss here?

I made modification but still the same problem, setString, save scene ..>> the material added to the scene but grass material don't change

Code: Select all

nModifiers, ok = obj.getGeometryModifierExtensionsNumber()  # grass
                                    for i in range(nModifiers):
                                        modifierParams, ok = obj.getGeometryModifierExtensionParamsAtIndex(i)
                                        name, ok = modifierParams.getString('EXTENSION_NAME')
                                        if name == 'MaxwellGrass':
                                            par1 = modifierParams.getByIndex(0)[1]
                                            par2 = modifierParams.getByIndex(1)[1]
                                            print 'mat  '+par1
                                            print 'back  '+par2
                                            print 'old  '+oldMatName
                                            print  'new  '+newMat.getName()
                                            if par1 == oldMatName:
                                                print 'par1'
                                                print modifierParams.getString('Material')
                                                modifierParams.setString('Material', newMat.getName())
                                            elif par2 == oldMatName:
                                                print 'par2'
                                                print modifierParams.getString('Double Sided Material')
                                                modifierParams.setString('Double Sided Material', newMat.getName())

Still the same problem

Code: Select all

from pymaxwell5 import *

def MXMchangeMaterialFromMXM(mxsScene,newMatPath,outPath):
	
	scene = Cmaxwell(mwcallback)
	scene.readMXS(mxsScene)
	newMat = scene.createMaterial('leather')
	newMat.read(newMatPath)
		
	it = CmaxwellObjectIterator()
	obj = it.first(scene)
		
	while not obj.isNull():
			nModifiers, ok = obj.getGeometryModifierExtensionsNumber()  # grass
			for i in range(nModifiers):
					modifierParams, ok = obj.getGeometryModifierExtensionParamsAtIndex(i)
					name, ok = modifierParams.getString('EXTENSION_NAME')
					if name == 'MaxwellGrass':
						par1 = modifierParams.getByIndex(0)[1]
						par2 = modifierParams.getByIndex(1)[1]
						if par1 == oldMatName:
							print 'par1 yes'
							modifierParams.setString('Material', newMat.getName())
						elif par2 == oldMatName:
							print 'par2 yes'
							modifierParams.setString('Double Sided Material', newMat.getName())
					
			obj = it.next()
	scene.writeMXS(outPath)

if __name__ == "__main__":
	oldMatName = 'grass'
	newMatPath = 'C:/input/leather.mxm'
	mxsScene = 'C:/input/examples/grass.mxs'
	outPath = 'C:/output/grass_new.mxs'
	MXMchangeMaterialFromMXM(mxsScene,newMatPath,outPath)

I think this is a bug or something change in new version of pymaxwell.
This is an old reply of Brany i tried it now but the same problem
viewtopic.php?p=395504#p395504

[Brany]

We are aware of this bug. Found and fixed for the (coming soon) next release

The problem was that obj.getGeometryModifierExtensionParamsAtIndex (among other methods requesting MXParamlist data) was returning a copy of the data, instead of a reference (the original behaviour).

[seghier]

Ok
I spent days trying to find solution

[seghier]

Work fine in v 5.1 with this change: Cmaxwell(mwcallback_cb) instead of Cmaxwell(mwcallback)
Is there another changes?

[Brany]

Nope
