but it not easy to share, the toolset is using two plugins data directory,
the code of that toolset contains more than 230 routinesdef , and even more buttons/sliders and switches, well i don’t think you have time for that.
i gonna try few tweak again and keep you posted, if i just isolated some part of the code to recreate another plugin to share with you it’s going to be hard.
i also a a lot of icon that are scattered from the main ZgametoolsData directory, and the Ztexturerdata directory.
Yes i gonna keep a shared plugin data, because i just want to keep all toolsets optimal and prevent from loading the common icons two or three time depending of the toolsets installed
from this common plugindata directory i share the zfileutils lib and dll, curl for licensing, common icons, the common plugin data has a toolset for those who want the connect zbrush to the app of their choice for 2D and 3D editing.
The ZCore which is a toolset i wanted to remove a week ago, but when i had tried recently to integrate the full licensing process in Ztexturer, i run in issue with the max def variable limitation so i revert my mind.
i tried from the test plugin to run from the the zfile utils from a different plugin directory, it worked well, so it not a problem to load the dll from zgametoolsdata/zfileutils.dll, or ZtexturerData/zfileutils.dll.
the
I can share the header in case you spot anything , i let the checksystem after the initzfileutils
