Re: Maxscript Function Orders
This is one of the things that frustrate me well regarding the fact that you gotta launch the program with you're library unless you fileIn every script at the start to import a library. Though hopefully with the implementation of python this might be better :) @Monster: Ah awesome. -
Render Object / Ray Tracing API calls?
Is there a way to manipulate the ray tracing attributes of the Render object from the Python API in Toolbag 4?

Re: Hired based off of certain software knowledge?
Even in that situation, the important part isn't really knowing Houdini in particular, it's understanding procedural asset creation. Someone who is skilled in making procedural assets in other ways (like through Python scripting within Maya, or by writing tools for use within the game engine) is also gonna have a pretty… -
Re: Auto-rigging tool is cheating?
If someone is a technical rigger, then their future employer will want to see what they are capable of achieving from scratch. Are they strong in melscript/python? Creative with their solutions?
