AL_USDMaya-0.31.1 (2019-02-21)

Added

  • Maya directional light import/export PR (#137 - @wengn)

AL_USDMaya-0.31.0 (2019-02-07)

Added

  • Option for the exporter to output transforms in world space.

Changed

  • Avoid reconstruction of imaging engine on prim resync
  • Updated to work with USD 0.19.01, see PR (#133 - @elrond79)

AL_USDMaya-0.30.5 (2019-01-30)

Added

  • AL_usdmaya_MeshAnimCreator node. Used to read mesh data directly from USD into the Maya DG. Avoids the need to store mesh data (translated from USD) in the maya files on save.
  • AL_usdmaya_MeshAnimDeformer node. Used to modify a mesh by updating the points/normals to the values from USD (at a given time)

AL_USDMaya-0.30.4 (2019-01-18)

Added

  • Added a AL_MayaTest docs file explaining how to use the AL_MayaTest library, run AL_USDMaya tests etc

Changed

  • googletest updated to 1.8 - no code change

AL_USDMaya-0.30.3 (2019-01-16)

Added

  • Strings can now be exported

AL_USDMaya-0.30.2 (2019-01-14)

Changed

  • update root cmake file to not build new mayaTest library
  • Bumping version to 0.30.2

Fixed

  • Extra Data Plugins not called on file import.

AL_USDMaya-0.30.1 (2019-01-04)

Added

  • Created AL_MayaTest library to store reusable test utility and test "harness" code
  • Extra Data Translation Plugins "An additional plugin mechanism to allow import/export of data which is not tied to a specific USD Schema (Typed or API) or Maya node type". See docs

Changed

  • Updated schema python module path to be AL.usd.schemas.maya

AL_USDMaya-0.29.9 (2018-12-19)

Added

  • Autodesk UFE selection integration (Maya 2019+)
  • When building with UFE is enabled, you will still get the default AL selection behavior. To enable UFE selection, you also need to set the env var MAYA_WANT_UFE_SELECTION. For now this is checked at run-time allowing you to enable/disable it to switch between the different selection modes. Note: this UFE selection is supported in the old VP1 code and also in VP2. When UFE selection is enabled, perform an extra wireframe draw to show selection.
  • Implemented VP2 selection, so the env var MAYA_VP2_USE_VP1_SELECTION is no longer required.
  • Set proper version in Maya plugin.

Deprecated

  • MAYA_VP2_USE_VP1_SELECTION is no longer required for Maya 2019+

Fixed

  • Some minor Windows build fixes.
  • Update bounding box when UFE selection occurs.

Fixed

  • Fixed incorrect export mode of polygon normals

AL_USDMaya-0.29.7 (2018-12-16)

Added

  • Added "Duplicate_Mesh_Points_as_PRef" export flag to export first frame of points as "pref" attribute (a duplicate of the first sample of "P")

Fixed

  • Ensure custom animation nodes being processed.

AL_USDMaya-0.29.4 (2018-11-01)

Added

  • Built against USD-0.18.11
  • support for displaying proxyShapes with default materials instead of full gl shaders for performance by toggling maya's "use default material" option (#121 - @nxkb)
  • uvs/meshUVS flag for AL_usdmaya_ExportCommand to turn on/off the export of mesh UV beside other mesh data.
  • uvo/meshUVOnly flag for AL_usdmaya_ExportCommand to turn on/off the UV data only export mode.
  • "Mesh_UV_Only=1" option for export translator for uvOnly export.
  • An override to the plugin translator interface that can be used to export animation from nodes that don't have a one to one mapping between UsdAttributes, and MPlugs.
  • Added PickMode enum
  • Added Python wrapper for PickMode enum
  • Camera::writePrim()

Changed

  • Tests data is generated in unique temporary folders
  • Inserted some calls to internal_pushMatrix(...) to handle pushing matrix values to prim.
  • Camera::initialize() is exposed as public API.
  • Camera::updateAttributes() is exposed publicly and signature changed to be able work on different schemas.
  • Multiple shapes test checks exported prim is a type inherit from UsdGeomCamera.

Deprecated

N/A

Removed

  • [schemas] generated plugInfo.json from source tree
  • VALIDATE_GENERATED_SCHEMAS build option
  • Setting matrix values on prim without validation.
  • muv/meshUV flag for AL_usdmaya_ExportCommand and replace with uvo/meshUVOnly to make things clear.

Fixed

  • FindMaya cmake module checking MAYA_DEVKIT_INC_DIR before using it (#127 - @AlexSchwank)
  • Rendering of Wireframe selected objects
  • Transform Import now respects single float rotations
  • Transform orders that do not match maya's order are now correctly imported.
  • Failing tests were crashing maya
  • Ask DG iterator to traverse over world space dependents. Without this change, for a typical skin deformer, traversal ends at all upstream joints. And MAnimUtil::isAnimated failed to detect it is an animated joint, which is not too unexpected. After setTraversalOverWorldSpaceDependents(), those ctrl and srt nodes will be traversed and detected as animated.
  • Clear the xformOps when copying attributes during exporting to avoid crashing Maya.
  • Pick the first exportable shape to export and ignore the others when there are multiple shapes under a transform, and "mergeTransforms" flag is turned on on AL_usdmaya_ExportCommand.
  • Fix the primvar normal mismatch warnings by setting interpolation to "vertex" for normals attribute. Overs are no longer applied to prims by selecting them in the viewport.
  • Animated caches were no longer animating in the viewport - fixed by setting the time in the draw method (rather than the now infrequently called prepareForDraw method)
  • The mesh translator does not respect the internal exporting mesh params.

AL_USDMaya-0.29.2 (2018-09-21)

Added

  • VALIDATE_GENERATED_SCHEMAS build option

Fixed

  • Transform Import now respects single float rotations
  • Transform orders that do not match maya's order are now correctly imported.
  • Rendering of Wireframe selected objects
  • Don't create do-nothing xform ops (#112 - @elrond79)
  • Fixed setting of shearTweak (#114 - @elrond79)
  • check for whether scalePivotTranslate needs to be set enableReadAnimatedValues was checking if scalePivot was set, not scalePivotTranslate (#115 - @elrond79)

AL_USDMaya-0.29.1 (2018-08-28)

Added

  • Sub-sample animation export

Changed

  • Only perform UsdImagingGLHdEngine creation when it is Maya interactive mode.

  • Built against USD-0.18.9
  • Plugins' metadata (plugInfo.json) have been moved to lib/usd to reflect USD's new layout.
  • The initial edit target of proxyShapes has changed from the root layer to the session layer (#102 - @nxkb)

  • Updated FindUSD.cmake to enable finding of usdMaya (#109 - @elrond79)
  • Updated github contribution guidelines

Fixed

  • Fix for opensource tests

  • fileio/translators/NurbsCurveTranslator
  • fileio/translators/CameraTranslator
  • Removed some EXPORT macros from inline methods (no need to export)

Fixed

  • A number of compiler warnings fixed, so PXR_STRICT_BUILD_MODE may be used (#97 - @elrond79)

AL_USDMaya-0.28.4 (2018-07-05)

Added

  • New events to prevent USDGlimpse from rebuilding the scene when mapping meta data is inserted into the prims during selection.

Changed

  • Transform values that have not changed no longer get written back to USD.
  • Only hook up the proxy shape time attribute to the transform nodes that are actually transforms (i.e. ignore prims that are effectively just organisational containers)
  • Allowed named events to be able to have callbacks registered against them prior to the events being registered

Removed

  • Some export macros from inline methods

Fixed

  • Regression where transform values were no longer being correctly displayed when translating prims into maya.
  • A number of build warnings in the OSS build
  • Final two build warnings in the repo. The generated schema code needs to have a flag set in the build C4099 to hide the 'class defined as struct' warning (pixar issue, not ours)
  • When you duplicate a proxy shape, you wont see anything in the viewport and it wont be fully initialize until you reopen maya or find a hack (like changing the usd path) to trigger a load stage. (#98 - @nxkb)
  • Add missing newlines to some TF_DEBUG statements in ProxyShapeUI (#92 - @elrond79)

Changed

  • The proxyShape outStageData is now connectable, and now longer hidden. Allows for manual DG node connections to be made.

Fixed

AL_USDMaya-0.28.2 (2018-06-14)

Added

  • Viewport will continue to refresh to show updated progressive renderers (like embree) until converged (#91 - @elrond79)

Fixed

  • Tweaks to allow builds to work with just rpath. (#88 - @elrond79)
  • When importing left handed geometry that has no normals, compute the correct set of inverted normals.

AL_USDMaya-0.28.1 (2018-06-06)

Added

  • Documentation for mesh export, interpolation modes, and diffing.
  • "-fd" flag added to the import command and the translate command

  • Support for diffing all variations of the interpolation modes on prim vars.
  • Routines to determine the interpolation modes on vec2/vec3/vec4 types.
  • AL_usdmaya_LayerManagerCommands to retrieve layers that have been modified and that have been the EditTarget.

Changed

  • Built using USD-0.8.5
  • ProxyShapePostLoadProcess::createTranformChainsForSchemaPrims now checks all the prims' parents' metadata for their unmerged status. If found, the transform chain creation skips the current prim in place of its parent.
  • ProxyShapePostLoadProcess::createSchemaPrims now checks all the prims' parents' metadata for their unmerged status. If found, the schema prim import will instead take place under the parent node.
  • Mesh::import now checks the prim's parents' metadata for its unmerged status. If found, the created shape node will not have the appended "Shape" string.
  • Mesh attributes queries use EarliestTime timecode
  • Functions in DgNodeTranslator are moved to DgNodeHelper in AL_USDMayaUtils
  • AttributeType.h/.cpp are moved to AL_USDMayaUtils

Fixed

  • Fix for when tearing down a shape, that it's sibling shapes are left alone in Maya.
  • time1.outTime is now connected to proxy shape nodes when transforms are selected during creation.
  • Selected transforms are no longer renamed when importing a proxy shape.
  • Tests build restored.
  • Fix for Issue "meshTransform cannot execute twice" #82
  • Bug in the import/export of mesh normals
  • Normals export now correctly listen to the exporter options.
  • AL_usdmaya_plugin can be unloaded correctly.
  • Passing the time value into the nurbs, camera, and transform translators on export.

Removed

  • Removed the code that reversed polygon windings if the 'leftHanded' meta data flag was encountered. Instead, the 'opposite' flag is set on the maya mesh.

AL_USDMaya-0.27.10 (2018-05-07)

Added

  • A new plugin translator (translator/NurbsCurve.cpp) to translate prim between USD and Maya, and write back editing result to USD prim.

Changed

  • Existing static nurbs curve translator re-uses common utils code.

Fixed

  • Windows build

AL_USDMaya-0.27.8 (2018-05-02)

Changed

Removed

  • Qt dependency (Thanks to Sebastien Dalgo from Autodesk)

AL_USDMaya-0.27.6 (2018-04-13)

Added

  • New attribute "assetResolverConfig" on proxy shape
  • Export creates master geometry prim thus each instance could reference. If transform and mesh nodes are separated by turning off "mergeTransform" option, transform prim will be marked as "instanceable" and fully benefits from usd instancing feature.
  • Import detects shared master geometry prim, ensures maya transform nodes parenting the instancing shape.
  • Layer manager is now serialised on file export

AL_USDMaya-0.27.5 (2018-04-10)

Added

  • Add assetResolverConfig string attribute to ProxyShape

  • Built against USD-0.8.4
  • Move initialisation of maya event handler from AL_USDMaya library to mayaUtils library

AL_USDMaya-0.27.4 (2018-04-04)

Added

  • src/plugin/AL_USDMayaTestPlugin/AL/usdmaya/fileio/export_unmerged.cpp has been added, which tests the mergeTransforms parameter.

Changed

  • src/schemas/AL/usd/schemas/plugInfo.json.in had the metadata "al_usdmaya_mergedTransform" added.
  • src/plugin/AL_USDMayaTestPlugin/AL/usdmaya/test_DiffPrimVar.cpp had the export parameter mergeTransforms changed to 1 to revert to previous test behaviour.
  • fileio/Import.cpp will now check for the mergedTransform metadata on the parent transform, which prevents mesh import from creating the parent transform.
  • fileio/Export.cpp has re-enabled functionality for "mergeTransforms", which will export the Xform prim and then the children mesh prims separately when set to '0'. The parent transform will have the metadata "al_usdmaya_mergedTransform = unmerged" added to tag it as an unmerged node.

AL_USDMaya-0.27.3 (2018-03-29)

Added

  • Add -eac/-extensiveAnimationCheck option to AL_usdmaya_ExportCommand

Fixed

  • "Error : No proxyShape specified/selected " when attempting to add a sublayer via the UI
  • The MPLug::source() error in Maya 2016, the API is only available since Maya 2016 ex2.
  • Failing unit test

  • Docs: Small update to build.md
  • Mesh Translation: updated glimpse subdivision attribute handling
  • Store maya_associatedReferenceNode in custom data This is to stop USD from complaining about: "Error in 'pxrInternal_v0_8__pxrReserved__::UsdStage::_HandleLayersDidChange' at line 3355 in file stage.cpp : 'Detected usd threading violation. Concurrent changes to layer(s) composed in stage 0x185f5a50 rooted at @usdfile.usda@. (serial=6, lastSerial=12).'

AL_USDMaya-0.26.1 (2018-03-02)

Added

  • Doxygen comments, tutorial and unit test for ModelAPI::GetLock(), ModelAPI::SetLock() and ModelAPI::ComputeLock().

Changed

Change default lock behaviour of al_usdmaya_lock metadata. "transform" will lock current prim and all its children.

  • GetSelectabilityValue method is now called GetSelectability
  • Implementation of ComputeLock() is modified to reuse common code structure.
  • Library name AL_Utils -> AL_EventSystem

Fixed

  • Issue with the ProxyShapeIimport command not loading payloads correctly.
  • AL_USDMayaSchema's pixar plugin was not being loaded during it's tests
  • Blocked the usd stage being reloaded when the filePath changes, when loading a maya file. This ensures all proxy shape attributes are initialised prior to reloading the stage.
  • Crash when moving a locked prim
  • Locking not working on maya hierarchies that appear and disappear on selection
  • "Error : No proxyShape specified/selected " when attempting to add a sublayer via the UI

AL_USDMaya-0.26.0 (2018-02-09)

Added

  • ProxyShape::usdStage() to directly return the proxys shape stage without triggering a compute
  • Extended Python bindings for ProxyShape class
  • Flag to keep temporary test files generated by AL_USDMayaTestPlugin

  • Reduced the overall number of pulls on the outStage data attribute
  • Replaced the use of MMessage callbacks in favour of a scheduled system allowing control of maya events over a number of plugins and tools
  • the -identifiers/-id flag is set. This makes it more in line with all the other flags for the command (and more flexible), but is a change in behavior - previously, the muted layers would ALWAYS be returned as identifier
  • Removed QT dependency in favour of Maya's keyboard getModifiers command
  • Total revamp of how layers and edited layers are stored by AL_USDMaya

Removed

  • The insertFirst / insertLast concept in the maya events system

Fixed

AL_USDMaya-0.25.0 (2017-11-28)

Added

  • New metadata and logic to lock transform and disable pushToPrim.
  • A boolean option "meshUV" or "muv" in AL_usdmaya_ExportCommand to indicate only export mesh uv data to a scene hierarchy with empty over prims.
  • A boolean option "leftHandedUV" or "luv" in AL_usdmaya_ExportCommand to indicate whether to adjust uv indices orientation. This option only works with "meshUV"

Changed

  • Add special rules for some Maya-USD attribute type mismatches so the maya attribute values transfer correctly to USD prim, e.g. interpolateBoundary attribute on mesh.
  • When translate, rotate, scale attributes are locked, TransformationMatrix blocks any changes of these attributes.
  • In mesh import, leftHanded flag retrieved from USD will also decide if uv indices need be adjusted.

Removed

  • Host Driven Transforms
