Hey Stephen,
so how would I implement that?? What object do i lookup the OriginPath
for??? Again, new to scripting I am reading the Docs but not finding
what I need to, in order to understand.
sub Import_XSIDB_v6_02_Scene_Execute( )
Application.LogMessage "Import_XSIDB_v6_02_Scene_Execute called"
' What do I use instead of the in_reg????
' s = in_reg.OriginPath
' LogMessage Left( s, InStr( s, "XSIDB" )+5 ) & "Data\Scene
Files\dotXSI\XSIDB_Full_Geo.xsi"
XSIDBv6File = Application.InstallationPath( siUserPath ) &
"\Addons\XSIDB\Data\Scene Files\Scenes\XSIDB_ShaderBall_v3_6.02.scn"
OpenScene XSIDBv6File
end sub
Thanks,
