Detailed Description

Interface into the biped driver controller for Max 10.

This contains functions supporting new biped features in Max 10, in particular Xtras.

Member Function Documentation

◆ CreateXtra()

virtual INode* CreateXtra ( int  nlinks,
const MCHAR name 
)
pure virtual

Creates an Xtra with the specified number of links and base name.

The base of the Xtra will be attached to the biped's center of mass.

Precondition
must be in figure mode
See also
BeginModes(BMODE_FIGURE)
Parameters
[in]nlinks- the number of links in the new Xtra, between 1 and 25
[in]name- the base name of the Xtra.
! The name can be the empty string, and names do not have to be unique.
Returns
the base node of the new Xtra if the creation was successful, NULL if the creation was unsuccessful

◆ CreateXtraOpposite()

virtual INode* CreateXtraOpposite ( INode xtra,
bool  doChildren 
)
pure virtual

Creates Xtras which are the opposite of the specified Xtra and its children, if desired.

The new Xtras will have the mirrored position, orientation, and hierarchy of the original Xtras. Xtras which already have opposites are ignored.

Precondition
must be in figure mode
See also
BeginModes(BMODE_FIGURE)
Parameters
[in]xtra- an Xtra node
[in]doChildren- if true, opposites of all the Xtra's children are created in a matching hierarchy
Returns
the base node of the opposite of the Xtra sent in if the creation was successful, NULL if the creation was unsuccessful

◆ GetXtraOpposite()

virtual INode* GetXtraOpposite ( INode xtra)
pure virtual

Gets the opposite Xtra.

Parameters

Pastes a copy of an Xtra posture onto each Xtra in the tab.

Parameters
[in]CP- a biped copy of type posture, which must be a copy of a single Xtra
[in]nodes- a tab of Xtras to paste to.
The copied posture will be pasted onto the entire Xtra track, regardless of which links from the Xtra are in the tab.
[in]KeyPasteType- method to paste TCB/IK values, one of the following: PST_DEF (default), PST_COPY (copied), PST_INTERP (interpolated).
KeyPasteType is only relevant if you are in auto key mode.

virtual bool PasteTrackToXtras ( IBipedCopy CP,
INodeTab nodes 
)
pure virtual

Pastes a copy of an Xtra track onto each Xtra in the tab.

Parameters
[in]CP- a biped copy of type track, which must be a copy of a single Xtra
[in]nodes- a tab of Xtras to paste to. The copied track will be pasted onto the entire Xtra track, regardless of which links from the Xtra are in the tab.
Returns
true if the paste was successful, false if the paste was unsuccessful

◆ SaveBipedAnimationLayer()

virtual bool SaveBipedAnimationLayer ( const MCHAR fname,
int  layerIndex 
)
pure virtual

Saves a single layer of a biped animation.

Parameters
[in]fname- the file name to save to - must be a valid path and filename
[in]layerIndex- the layer to save. The first layer is index one. A zero index will save the base layer without max objects or list controllers.

SaveBipedBaseAnimationLayer
Returns
true if the save was successful, false if the save was unsuccessful

◆ LoadBipedAnimationLayer()

virtual bool LoadBipedAnimationLayer ( const MCHAR fname,
int  layerIndex 
)
pure virtual

Loads a BIP file into a single layer of a biped animation.

If more than one layer is stored in the BIP file the load will be unsuccessful.

Precondition
the layer must exist
Parameters
[in]fname- the file to load - must be a valid path and filename
[in]layerIndex- the layer into which the animation will be loaded. The first layer is index one. A zero index will load into the base layer without max objects or list controllers.

Returns
true if the load was successful, false if the load was unsuccessful

◆ SaveBipedBaseAnimationLayer()

virtual bool SaveBipedBaseAnimationLayer ( const MCHAR fname,
int  saveMaxObjects,
INodeTab maxObjects,
int  saveControllers,
Tab< SaveSubAnimInfo > *  controllers 
)
pure virtual

Saves the base layer of a biped animation.

This is just like a regular BIP file save except that layers, if they exist, are not saved.

Parameters
[in]fname- the file name to save to - must be a valid path and filename
[in]saveMaxObjects- When kSAVE_NONE, no max objects are saved. When kSAVE_AUTOMATIC, all IK, Head Target, and linked objects in the scene are saved, and the maxObjects array is ignored. When kSAVE_SPECIFIED, the max objects specified in the maxObjects array are saved.
[in]maxObjects- an array of nodes in the scene, to be saved only if saveMaxObjects equals SAVE_SPECIFIED. Biped nodes are always saved, regardless of whether they appear in this array or not.
[in]saveControllers- When kSAVE_NONE, no list controllers are saved. When kSAVE_AUTOMATIC, all animation controllers assigned to the biped are saved, and the controllers array is ignored. When kSAVE_SPECIFIED, the controllers specified in the controllers array are saved.
[in]controllers- an array of SaveSubAnimInfo specifying animation controllers, to be saved only if SaveListCntrls equals SAVE_SPECIFIED. Controllers not associated with Biped nodes are ignored.
Returns
true if the save was successful, false if the save was unsuccessful

◆ LoadBipedBaseAnimationLayer()

virtual bool LoadBipedBaseAnimationLayer ( const MCHAR fname,
BOOL  MatchFile,
BOOL  ZeroFootHeight,
BOOL  promptForDuplicates,
int  retargetType,
BOOL  scaleIKObjectSize,
int  loadMaxObjects,
Tab< const MCHAR * > *  maxObjectNames,
int  loadControllers,
Tab< LoadSubAnimInfo > *  controllers 
)
pure virtual

Loads a BIP file into the base layer of a biped animation.

If multiple layers are stored in the BIP file the load will be unsuccessful.

Parameters
[in]fname- the file to load - must be a valid path and filename
[in]MatchFile- when true, the structure of the current biped is changed to match the structure in the BIP file
[in]ZeroFootHeight- when true, sets the lowest starting foot height to Z=0
[in]promptForDuplicates- When true, opens a Merge dialog for each object in the BIP file that has a duplicate in the scene. In this dialog, you can Merge, Skip, or Delete Old. If Prompt for Duplicates is off, the objects in your scene will be automatically overwritten.
[in]retargetType- method to retarget max objects to biped size, one of the following: RETARGET_NONE, RETARGET_HEIGHT, RETARGET_LIMB
See also
RetargetType
Parameters
[in]scaleIKObjectSize- when true, the imported objects are scaled in size to match the target biped
[in]loadMaxObjects- When kLOAD_NONE, no max objects are loaded. When kLOAD_ALL, all max objects stored in the BIP file are loaded, and the maxObjectNames array is ignored. When kLOAD_SPECIFIED, only the max objects specified in the maxObjectNames array and existing in the BIP file are loaded.
[in]maxObjectNames- an array of names of nodes stored in the BIP file
[in]loadControllers- When kLOAD_NONE, no list controllers are loaded. When kLOAD_ALL, all animation controllers stored in the BIP file are loaded, and the controllers array is ignored. When kLOAD_SPECIFIED, only the controllers specified in the controllers array and stored in the BIP file are loaded.
[in]controllers- an array of SaveSubAnimInfo specifying animation controllers stored in the BIP file
Returns
true if the load was successful, false if the load was unsuccessful
