How do you access the noise generator in 2.5+ it was easy in 2.49. I cant seem to find it in the new api, any help would greatly appreciated! Thanks!
import bpy
bpy.data.materials.new(name="new_mat")
matref = bpy.data.materials["new_mat"]
bpy.data.textures.new(name="mynoise", type='NOISE')
noiseref = bpy.data.textures["mynoise"]
matref.texture_slots.add()
bpy.data.materials["new_mat"].texture_slots[0]
bpy.data.materials["new_mat"].texture_slots[0].texture = noiseref
print(bpy.data.materials["new_mat"].texture_slots[0])
Ok got it, but how do you access the data, return a list or a single value of (x,y,z) vTurbulance, i’m tring to script a per vertice noise value to an object.
Maybe i should script a dynamic vertex group, with a noise texture applied. Thanks!
how did you do it in 2.49? give some example code
This is an example from 2.49 api.
http://www.zoo-logique.org/3D.Blender/scripts_python/API/
time = Get(‘curtime’)
ob = Scene.GetCurrent().getCurrentCamera()
ps = (sltime, sltime, sl*time)
To add jitter only when the camera moves, use this next line instead
#ps = (slob.LocX, slob.LocY, slob.LocZ)
rv = Noise.vTurbulence(ps, 3, 0, Noise.NoiseTypes.NEWPERLIN) ## this is what i need
ob.dloc = (sprv[0], sprv[1], sprv[2]) ## rv[0] = x
ob.drot = (srrv[0], srrv[1], sr*rv[2])
That’s the data i’m looking for, then i can off set a vertice in the (x,y,z) axes with a scalar factor.
You could add an f-curve, then a noise modifier then you could just poll that f-curve at any time for a noise value.
