Just for fun did you try pressing play to see if things would get updated? (and/or hiding/unhiding the spotlight)

Test of experimental Python API (RLPy.RILight example)

I just tested the example script provided in the following page:
http://manual.reallusion.com/iClone/script/python/class_r_l_py_1_1_r_i_light.html

--- the script

My initial project:


the result obtained after execution of the script:



we notice that the spotlight has been moved to the coordinate provided by the script, but the GIZMO has remained at the old coordinates of the spotlight, and that the Transform  coordinate X, Y, Z of the iClone MODIFY panel are not updated.

My version starts fine... but I do not like that this DEVELOPMENT version has completely overwritten the stable 7.41.
That's not what i wanted when I downloaded and run it.
RL should have create a standalone .exe, which does not install anything, like was done in the earlier stages of IC7 Beta testing.

Hey! It's entertainment!

Ah, what the heck does this provincial American know <g>?

When my version starts up it warns you about using this very dangerous piece of untested software, and I assume that's the part that's missing for those overseas.  In any case, since we all need to wait nearly two weeks I'd just be patient.

Swedish, KT.

We won't get any more answers for another 10 days or so, so be patient.

(iClone starts for me just fine, but it looks like you are using the German version so who knows?)

Some examples to get and set the rotation quaternions for objects in local and world (or a way to transform world to local and set it or vice versa).

Also the API update gives me this error when trying to start iClone

Translation: Could not find the address (memory pointer) to start the process.

Material transition keys can't be set.  And neither can we load an image file in.  Both of those things are coming (hopefully soon).
