How do I get dsa script to run in every frame?

jhandy

I am new to daz scripting.

Simple question.- I have DSA script that I would like to run in every frame.

What is the easiest way to do that besides clicking  F5 and going to the next frame?

Thanks in advance!

Do you mean you want to run the script in one go to do something with every frame, or do you mean you want the script to run each tiem you change a frame as you are interacting with the scene?

jhandy

in one go in every frame

 

Richard Haseltine

Scene gives you access to the information and functions you need - just get the number of frames from Scene.getPlayRange() and Scene.getTimeStep(), then use Scene.setFrame( frame ) to iterate through the frames doinf whatever it is you want to do at each.

jhandy

hmm..  something  like this

Scene.getPlayRange()

Scene.getTimeStep()

Scene.setFrame( frame ){

<<<my script >>>                                 

                                  }

Richard Haseltine

Yes, though you will need to get the actual time interval from the play range and then divide by the TimeStep to get a frame count, then use a loop (for n = 0 ; n < maxFrames ; n++ ) { My Script } to do the iteration.

thank you, so what would that  look like?

 

jhandy

Thank you, but I still haven't gotten it to work. Can you show me how that might look like?

here is the script I am trying to iterate per every frame.
