[size=150]NOTE: This thread contains builds posted before November 8, 2011, for the latest builds go to the Krakatoa Builds section.[/size]
KRAKATOA SR:
Attached is the beta release of Krakatoa SR. It was built on Windows 7, and built for Python 2.6 64 bit. The current documentation is provided here.
INSTALLATION:
Currently there is no installer. Provided is one zip file which has a KrakatoaSR.pyd file (python module) and its .dll dependencies, as well as a sample scene. Currently the .pyd and .dll files must be in the path pointed at by both the “PYTHONPATH” environment variable or be in the c:\python26\DLLs directory.
RENDERING THE SAMPLE SCENE:
Included in the zip file is a sample scene. To render the sample scene:
- Unzip the contents to a new folder (let’s call it c:\pathto\krakatoasr).
- Open a command window and make these three calls:
set PYTHONPATH=c:\pathto\krakatoasr\
cd c:\pathto\krakatoasr\
python sample_scene.pyA “sample_scene_output.exr” rendered image should appear in the current folder.
GENERATING A SCENE FILE:
- Export a scene from Maya to Krakatoa SR.
- Export a scene from 3ds Max to Krakatoa SR.
- Or, write your own scene file using this format.
