VR Object
Another thing I found myself doing over and over
again was setting up a series of cameras so that I could render
out the required frames to create a VR Object, like Quicktime VR
Objects - although I use a shockwave/actionscript implementation.
This script sets up a camera that moves in circles
at varying angles looking at a model so that you can render out
the required frames to create a VR Object in one go. To achieve
this it creates a "framechanged" scriptlink and script
which changes the camera as the frames are rendered, the script
also works when you change the frame at any time so you can check
the object is in frame.
| vr_object.py - Set up cameras required
to create frames for a VR Object |
Add the script to your blender/scripts
directory.
Execute this script from the "Scripts->Animation
" menu and choose VR Object.
Set the desired Rows, Columns and Angles, hit Generate. |

Changed the way I got all the frames rendered out from changing between many cameras
to simply moving one camera, now you can easily change the focal length.
Now when the script is run
again it overwrites the existing rig and scripts so that you dont end up with many versions with .001 appended
if you have several attempts at setting up the desired angles.
Fixed a division by 0 error when you only had
a single column or row. Fixed a bug which prevented getting the full angle range over the columns |

Fixed error in the framechanged script which caused it to be 1 frame out. (Blenders frames start at 1 not 0 like Arrays in python) |

First up release, seems to work quite
well but havn't tesed it extensively. |
