Ockham's scripts....what can you say. Study them! Use them!

This is his model of a piano. Pretty cool looking!
But guess what? It's alive!
Ockham wrote a Python Script that makes this thing
play. That's right, the Ockham Acme Player Pianer.

You have to have a midi file, one dedicated to piano/keyboard.
You have to have a .wav matched to it.
Then, you just load this great prop in your poser
and run the script. I asks you to find the two files, then it
does its thing. It's pretty fast, about 20 frames PER SECOND.

Here is the result....a quick and dirty animation at low visual resolution
just so I could show the results. The timing is off just slightly, that is
correctable, I just don't have time this morning. BTW, notice that the
pedals move as well as the keys!

It's Chopin's Revolutionary Etude.

Here is a link to Ockham's latest thread...follow the link in the
first post to find his models and scripts.

Deep appreciation, Ockham. It is cool
