Script idea

(1/2) > >>

Mr.Smeagol:
I don't know how to make ASL scripts but I really could use script which would move selected points in random directions for specified distance.
I don't know if that's hard/easy possible/impossible to script but if anyone has any spare time and feels like scripting i would be thankfull.

Main reason for this is modeling of rocks, which always and up looking too artificial and i have to randomize all points by hand to make it look a bit more natural, which takes lot of time, and i have many rocks to do :)

You could try this one I wrote a while ago http://www.anim8or.com/ubb/Forum6/HTML/000103.html

Edit - Oops link to original post now working i hope :)

Hya Fix that link doesn't lead to a specific page :(

Mons. Smeagol: Terranim8or has a noise plugin - I think.

Mr.Smeagol:
thanks for replys, I tried the script and most of the time it works and is exactly what i had in mind. however sometimes it just doesn't work - does nothing, i checked the object is mesh and everything that it needs to be for it to work ofc.
Terranimator noise plugin wouldn't really work for me couse i have thousands of rocks to model in their exact positions where they should be (boring yea... tell me about it) so exporting into terranim8or just inst convenient for me at all. thanks anyways

I'll be using  the script whenever it decides to work for me. If i get any additional information on when it doesn't work exactly I'll post it here.
thanks again ;)

NickE:
If you can give a better idea of what you need, I might be able to help you out with a script.
 
1) Are you trying to draw each rock separately because they need to have a basic overall shape, but are too artificial looking and thus need a bit of randomization?
2) You would like to generate thousands of randomized rocks by script all at once, but precisely placed?
3) Something else?
