V5I: Progressive Drop Python Script
Saturday, June 17th, 2006I wanted to create a heap of objects for a picture today but Vue’s drop puts all the selected objects on the same level. I could have selected and dropped each one by hand but that would have been laborious and I was feeling lazy so I created a Python script to do the hard […]

This Message Will Self Destruct in 5 Seconds…
Sunday, May 14th, 2006Sorry couldn’t resist the title. I bet if I did a search I’d find hundreds like it already. What can I say it is a classic line. Well hats off to Mr Abrams. The best of the franchise so far. I liked the first one but it lacked the team element for most of the […]
V5I: Camera Animation Save and Load
Friday, May 12th, 2006This one caught me out by being more difficult to get working than I expected when I volunteered myself to write it… Anyway a pair of little scripts savecameradata.py and loadcameradata.py hopefully they will make a certain amount of sense but given the late hour I’m not going to explain them now. Available in a […]
V5I: Centre Finder
Tuesday, May 9th, 2006While working on a picture I realised I needed to find the centre of a set of objects. I could have calculated that by hand but I decided to go for the easy option and create a little Python script. If you’d like a copy you can download Centre Finder.

Eight of the spheres in the metablob were […]
Todays a Lemon and I'd like my Money Back
Friday, April 28th, 2006So today just doesn’t seem to like me… I go to B&Q to get some stuff I need. I ask an assistant to help me make sure I’m getting the right stuff. I get it home, eat yada yada yada. First the "Universal Connector" won’t connect to what it’s supposed to. So after a significant […]
