sailcut8

Sailcut8 was originally written by Robert Lainé and is now supported by the junk rig community through the members of the Yahoo! Junkrig Group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/junkrig/ Robert is now concentrating on developing Sailcut which is a cross-platform sail design package for either 4 sided ... [More] sails like for an old timer gaff rig or 3 sided sails like jibs or main sails for a Marconi rig. His new Sailcut does not design junk rig sails. See: http://www.sailcut.com Sailcut8 lets you design the geometry of a junk rig sail that will be made from separate horizontal panels where the sail can have a user-specified amount and position of built-in camber. Sailcut8 produces lofting specifications for the separate panels. Sailcut8 automates the ideas of Arne Kverneland as described in: http://home.triad.rr.com/boatbarn/arnek.htm You can download a Windows installable version of Sailcut8 from the 'Downloads' section of this web-site. You will need to unzip the file sailcut8-packageV1.0.zip into a temporary folder and execute the setup.exe file in that folder. See also: http://code.google.com/p/sailcut8/wiki/Versions for more information about downloading Sailcut8. Note: there is no documentation available at this time - you will have to experiment with the controls to see how it works. Sailcut8 is written in Visual Basic 6 and only runs on MS Windows computers. You will need a VB6 development environment (Visual Studio) if you want to modify the source. [Less]

This project still a work in progressThis is an XSI rigging framework wrote in Python. The DAN_RigSystem python Package has been created for work with a specific "XSI enviroment". It constantly looks for other plugins and operators we supposed are correctly loaded in XSI. ... [More] Dependencies:This framework can't work properly if is used without the following things: Softimage|XSI 6.0 or higher Python 2.5 and relative Pythoncom It cannot create GenericProperty if the specific plugins is not installed in XSI. The PYTHONPATH must be setted properly in order to find where this package is It needs some XSI custom operators. Because they are not strictly part of this framework they are created as external plugins. this is a list of operators this framework required: C++ Operators (a complete list will follow) [Less]
