Hello.
I would like to know if anyone has any experence with PoserPython in communicating with Pyhon in another application.
Let me explain the background:
Marvelous Designer 7 comes with a Python API to support a/o import/export and read/write of data. (for the curious: information is here)
This would make it possible to build a 'bridge' between Posr and MD7 and use MD as an alternative cloth room, with all the features that MD offers, such as opening/closing buttons and zippers and manual intervention in the simulation.
The example code that comes with MD shows how to do the data handling on that head of the bridge, and for the Poser side I presume there are some exmples how to export geometry etc.
The problem lies with the communication and data transfer.
The Royal way to do this I understand would be using sockets , My simpleman's method would be to start loops on both sides checking whether a specific file exists.
Does any of you have experience with this or with this sort of process interaction? Does PoserPython support sockets?
