Installation

══════════════════

Please refer to the plugins installation instructions at https://sites.google.com/site/mcasualsdazscripts/mcjisosurface

══════════════════

Use

══════════════════

proceed like you did with the old version

the instructions are here https://sites.google.com/site/mcasualsdazscripts/mcjisosurface

Scaling and translating the "it" node will make modeling very difficult so, for now avoid it!

--

With this new version of the plugin

The isosurface program places the responsibility of rendering the isosurface to Daz Studio

it does so by hijacking an existing object in your scene

the object must be renamed or rather relabeled "it"

and that's case sensitive

so ... create a primitive plane

re-label it "it" ( without quotation marks )

create your mcjIsoSurface4 using Daz Studio4.8's "Create" menu

proceed like you did with the old version

the instructions are here https://sites.google.com/site/mcasualsdazscripts/mcjisosurface

If you set the mcjIsosurface4 node visibility to off, the "it" shape will stop being updated

you would want to do that when you have many metaobjects in your scene

and want to position them without the slowness of the interactive mode

do not convert the "it" node to SubD - this will likely crash Daz Studio
