hi people,
just wanted to share this python tool - "Maya PDC to RF Bin tool" uploaded on HIGHEND3D (http://www.highend3d.com/downloads/tools/3d_converters/pdc-to-bin-5168.html) and you can check my blog for some feedback.. (http://ashishdantu.blogspot.com/2008/04/update-maya-pdc-to-rf-bin.html)
Script : pdc_to_bin.py
Desc : Read Maya pdc files and convert them to RealFlow bin (particle bin format) files. This is a tool which is intended to be run as a standalone tool. Helps you convert you pdc into bin files (happens in seconds, compared to using the PDC importer in RF), which can be imported using the binary loader.
Usage :
# When the script is run (double click it), it will open a 'filedialog' window. Choose a .pdc file (start file in a pdc sequence). The script will write out .bin files in the same directory, in "particleShape_custom####.bin" format.
# Needs python to be installed and Tkinter module to be present.
# on Mac, use python launcher to launch it (havent tested it..but should work)
PLS give me any suggestions /feedback you may have.
