This plugin is at an early stage, but I used it in order to make some 3D turntables.
You can found some of these videos on my thread here and here.
I report here part of my last post:
STEREO TURNTABLE PLUGIN
I transformed the macro that I maked for these turntables in a mini plugin: You can download it from HERE.
You have to place the file “StereoTurntable.txt” under your folder Zbrush4 R3\ZStartup\ZPlugs and you will see that under the menu “Movie” there will be a subpalette with some options.
-You can set the number of frame of the turntable (from 1 to 360)
-You can set the 3D effect (more pronuced more 3D effect more headache… The default value seem to be OK)
-You can turn on/off the BPR render
Basically, when you press the “Make Stereo Turntable” button, the plugin request you the name for a filename the it will start on doing 2 turntable renders:
One in order to render the view of right eyes, the other in order to render the view of the left eyes.
Please be careful and be sure to have the PERSPECTIVE active on your tool, otherwise you will not have the Stereo 3D effect.
The plugin will save one file for each frame rendered…
So if you gave “STEREOTT” as filename for the turntable you will find these files:
“STEREOTT_R_000.bmp”
“STEREOTT_R_001.bmp”
“STEREOTT_R_002.bmp”
…
“STEREOTT_R_359.bmp”
“STEREOTT_L_000.bmp”
“STEREOTT_L_001.bmp”
“STEREOTT_L_002.bmp”
…
“STEREOTT_L_359.bmp”
From these I use “Avisynth” in order to obtain the two format of 3D video (the cross eye type and the standard side by side).
I will put a minitutorial on my blog when I will find the time.
I hope to be able to refine a bit the plugin in the neare future… in the meantime anyone could do his test as the plugin code is visible to all.
Hope this could be helpful for some interesting experiment.
