think im done with the isl stuff now. i had to rewrite major parts of the material export.

below a screenshot of the shader. texture indices have to be written as as placeholders like "$tex01$" bacause indices of the loaded textures may vary.

next thing up is the import for isl.... not sure if i can find a good solution for used textures here.

edit: added another shot to show how to add an ISL shader. straight.

Hi,

hm, got 4 crashes now with Cindigo 1.1.18. I don't get a Mac version of Indigo (...) and so I normally render my scenes on OpenArtist (Ubuntu) after export.

After I've converted my material and go through the settings of them a "beachball of death" appears. I don't clicked preview or something like that. Any idea? Maybe the plugin tries to find a indio.exe?

Thanks

Helge

Could you please set materials helpers with the same layers then of the Materials themselves? These way these could also be managed... :-)
