Wiki Scripts/Catalog - Update Add Mesh Bundle

[Meta-Androcto]

Hi, some interesting stats for all the script writers.
The Scripts Catalog:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Scripts/Catalog
Is now Number 36 here:
Popular Blender Wiki Pages:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Special:Popularpages
yay to Scripts!
This is a great testament to the popularity of Python Scripts in Blender.
I am continually getting nearly more scripts than i can catalog.
& I must say, generally the scripts are of an ever increasing standard.
I do apologize to some people who have missed out so far having their scripts listed.
I will get them there soon as I can....

It would be great if a few more Script Authors could help out a little.
You can always get a Wiki account & add your own page.
Basic Documentation on the wiki, (following the template of course).
With links to your site & hopefully online docs (yours!) is the preference.


Also, any International wiki writers an fully welcome,
to all information, links & images contained in the
a: Scripts/Catalog
b: Scripts/Manual
for translation or any Wiki Purpose.

Anyhoo, just a heads up.
What script writers do, is very popular & obviously scripts are very much sought after.
The wiki is a good place to release/have listed your scripts.

Realistically, such a large (300 pages+) section should not be left to one person to maintain.
me: Scorpion (wiki)
There must be others here/elsewhere that have huge collections of scripts.
Many will be the same, but if you do like to "Get Python Scripts"
or to test them & grab screenshots.
why not help out on the Catalog a little.

To those that do help,
ianwill, ideasman, jesterKing, macouno, jms, couch, andy h, manuel & others,
with support, guidance, words of encouragement, permissions, docs, most importantly Scripts!, Thanks to you also!

current agenda:
add docs & images to existing catalog.
add new scripts. (& some old!)
refine categories of scripts. (to better group similar scripts)

Brendon.

Hi, i just finished documenting the all powerful Shell Factory script by JMS.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Sc...hell_blendv90f
Another large & complex script, with a little practice & understanding of the settings, this older script is a great "Shell/Curve Wizard".
some textured shells:

the first half of the scripts here:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Sc...atalog#Wizards
now have docs.

Ooh, the Catalog is now No.37

More updates soon.

You should point on the very last page of the script : http://cobalt3d.free.fr/ressources_p..._script_91.htm

[Meta-Androcto]

They are explained on the html page :

And the script was updated to work with blender 2.46 without sound .

[Meta-Androcto]

hi, thanks JMS,
I'll make the change for the error when 2.46 is released.
I have tested it in svn & your update is good.

Tesselate Script wiki docs done!
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Sc...rds/tesselate8

Next L-System Scripts. (including The Missing One......Buildings/Objects)
thanks.

[jms]

Thanks for all this documentation but you waste your time : all these scripts will become useless when blender will move to the new bpy API.

[Meta-Androcto]

hi jms,
true, i may be wasting my time.
i hold slim hopes that there will be some backward compatibility.
either way, i would like to finish this Catalog.
i feel the 2.4 series will be around for a long time after 2.50 release.
my plan is to finish all the docs, then release the best scripts (most of them...)
from the 2.4 series in bundles before 2.50.
to say bye bye to an era ( old API before starting fresh.)

update: L_System Buildings:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Sc...stem_Buildings

[UglyMike]

Oh yeah, I remember that one....
My favorite LSystem script as far as output goes.... Those renders by Jimmy Haze are just SUPERB (to my eye at least)
Thanks for all the effort you are putting into this wiki. You're doing a hell of a job there!! I love playing with python scripts like these.

Could you add that support for french users is there !

Keep up the good work - it's great having this one-stop-shop for clearly seeing a breakdown of all the available scripts.

Clicked on the 'TreeFromCurves' wizard entry and it doesn't have the correct 'Examples/Instructions/Options' text - looks like it's from the 'Follow Active (quads)' UV script instead.

[Meta-Androcto]

@ jms, will do for all your scripts soon.
@ Deaky
lol,
Cambo did that page,
I don't plan to doc that script until after the release of 2.46.
unless Cambo does it first, but he is very busy.
probably just a typo paste with good intentions.

[Meta-Androcto]

hi again, big update.
I have started work updating scripts to/for Blender 2.46.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Scripts/Catalog
Also I put together a scripts bundle.
11 New primitive objects for the spacebar menu.
* AddMesh Diamond
* AddMesh Hyperboloid
* AddMesh Octahedron
* AddMesh Paraboloid
* AddMesh Pipe
* AddMesh Pyramid
* AddMesh Thread_Bolt

* AddMesh Sqorus
* AddMesh Star
* AddMesh Wedge
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Sc...d_Mesh_Toolkit

this seems to be a dead link :

[jms]

... and this one too :
An unnamed repository of scripts

[Meta-Androcto]

thanks jms,
i'm updating everything for 2.47.
although that page is a mystery to me.
i will look into cleaning it up.
