CSV BatchRender
Script to replace text inputs from CSV data in Spreadsheets and render each comp individually. Useful to render lower thirds and similar in one batch. Make sure to name the header row in the csv according to a text tool or input (e.g. Text1,LowerThirdMarco.TitleInput,Text3D1). The temp: can be replaced if you want to keep track of the autogenerated comps. All savers will get the current value of the first column as subfolder.

Flame Tracker to DFMO
This script converts 2D tracks exported from FFI stabilizer as .ascii file. Writes .dfmo to the same direcrory, make sure it is writable. Can do all .ascii in directory with process all files option. Needs horizontal resolution of tracked image in pixels.

Fusion Camera to Maya v0.3

Just for the fun of it it tried to create a export script for fusion cameras to a maya ascii file. Most parts of it are just a copy of a maya ascii file i had as reference but for the small tests i did it worked. What we have so far:

• export of translation and rotation for a selected cam
• if the camera uses a target then this will also exported
• export of animated focal length
• a scale factor

VPE import

Import .VPE file from Photoshop CS3 with corresponding .3ds and image. It creates a Projector3D, a FBXMesh3D and a loader (for the projected image, position the Projector and link it with the loader)

You must export in PS CS3 the vanishing points to 3DS and to .VPE, than use my script with both. Not very tested and maybe not a good example of code. Goes into Scripts\Comp. Download example_data.rar

CDL CCC read

This script parses a ASC CDL CCC xml file and let the user choose which colorcorrection from the CCC should be loaded. Then it creates the corresponding tools for the grading. you can/should also use my macro for a ASC CDL UI (the script let you choose if you want to add a chain of tools or add the macro) Macros

Loaders Up (Version 1.0)

Similar to other version up scripts, but this one focuses on loaders. It finds the current version # of all loaders in your comp, and then looks for a valid path/filename with the version number increased.

• has only been tested with image sequences, and they must include a string _v#### in the path or filename
• sub-versions or decimal version #'s not tested.
• example fileName = c:\project\shots\Ep215\VFX-01\elements\VFX-01_v02\1920x1080\AC_Element_v02.0000.dpx

Import Directory

This script will do a recursive scan on a Directory and add all known Imagefiles as separate loaders to the comp.

Derived from the original "Create Bin From Directory" script.

Change Paths (Revision 3.0)

An updated version of the script that ships with Fusion. New features:

• option to remember search strings in global variables if you need to do many similar replacement operations.
• script no longer lowercases the whole path name in loaders and savers.
• "Trim In" and "Trim Out" numbers of loaders are preserved.

--Tilt

Create Local Proxies

This script will generate a local proxy version of every/selected loader. To do so it generates a savernode and starts rendering it. So it will take some time to finish.

Did a little update: if proxy scale is set to 1 it will do now a copy instead of a new render. Goes into Scripts\Comp. --Michael_v

SE_ReRenderMissingFrames

This script is a modification of the 'check for missing frames'-script and works like this:

Within the current render-range it checks for missing frames of the selected saver. If there are any missing frames, it sets up the renderrange and re-renders those frames. Goes into Scripts\Comp.

SE_LoaderTweaker

LoaderTweaker allows for easy modification of the most-frequently used Loader-options. (Derived from the ChangeLoaderMissingFrame-script). Goes into Scripts\Comp.

Last revisited: January 9, 2008. Added Hold First/Last options.

SE_DeleteOrphanedLoaders
Loaders that are not connected to any tool will be deleted. Goes into Scripts\Comp.

Rocket_Science_Saver_Clip_Rename

This custom script was written to rename the output files generated by the comp’s savers. The output clips are renamed based on the title of the comp. The file extension is created from a hard coded list of file extensions and determined based on the TOOLST_Clip_FormatName attribute of the saver.
To run this script ensure that the script is saved in the Fusion/Scripts/Comp directory. Select the savers to be affected by the script and run the script from the Scripts menu of Fusion.

Filmkameratene_Change_Path_OpenEXR

This custom script was written to maintain the custom data (channels) created for an OpenEXR format clip loaded into a Fusion loader.
Existing scripts that allow the user to re-path loader files destroyed existing clip information (in the creation of a new clip). This script first collects the custom data, creates a new clip and repopulates the custom data. To run this script ensure that the script is saved in the Fusion/Scripts/Comp directory. Select the Loader to be affected by the script and run the script from the Scripts menu of Fusion.

Save New Version and Update Savers
This is a modification of the 'Save New Version' script in Fusion 5 that also updates clip names in savers. Use it if you intend to keep different version renders for comparison or other purposes. It will only update savers matching the composition name, so you have to explicitly enable 'versioning' of your savers.

Saver Checker 1.1
This script helps managing comps with several savers. It will print a summary of all enabled savers which is helpful if you want to make sure only desired branches/savers are rendered. The script can be configured to automatically create missing output directories for all savers and to set the render range to the combined range of all active savers. It can also delete existing output movs for you if overwriting them creates file name issues on your server. If only one saver is enabled, that one will be highlighted in the flow view. Long story short: simply run this script before you hit render and it will make sure the range is set up correctly and no saver will fail due to missing directories. --Tilt

Saver Ranges

This script animates the range in which the saver is active. It builds a list of all savers in the comp and let the user deside which should be active and in which range. By default all savers are active (besides if the are in passthrough or not) and the renderange is the comp renderrange. Goes into Scripts\Comp.

--Michael_v

Loader from Saver

This script creates a Loader that points to a selected Saver's output sequence. If one or more Loaders are included in the selection, the saver's clip will be copied to those Loaders without a new one being created. --Tilt

Last revised 2013-03-23. bug fixes when using path maps or avi files.

Together: combine selected loaders to one timeline, like editing CUT`s.

Script will merge all selected loaders in order. In fact its like you put all these footages one by one in your editing application. Order is important! For example - if you throw "a.mov" then "b.avi" then "c.mov" to your comp and then apply script, you get a->b->c editing. Аnalogically if you throw "c.mov" then "b.avi" then "a.mov" to your comp and then apply script, you get c->b->a editing. Script change Global-In\Out properties for selected loaders and comp RenderTime. Script analyze all footages and searching for maximum width and height, so if yours footages with different resolutions, your final output would be with maximum width and height. Place it in Comp scripts folder . Video example: https://vimeo.com/44732039

Color Matrix Transform

Creates a connected ColorMatrixTransform based on all selected 3D Transform Tools. Needs the ColorMatrixTransformFuse in order to work [1].

Written by Blazej Floch on May 2nd 2012

Plane Generator

This script will generate a series of 3D planes slicing an image into rectangles, or arbitrary shapes from a greyscale image. From the right angle, it still looks like a solid image. Fly the camera around for some interesting transitions. This is a modified version of an original script by HuLaN, posted on VFXTalk.

Written by Christoffer Hulusjö, Daniel Koch. Last revised by Stefan Ihringer on November 2nd 2011 so tool connections work properly in Fusion 6+.

DAMNcircles

This custom script was written to create circular paint strokes at a location, frame number and with a radius defined by a text file.
The script generates an image that is used to simulate particles colliding with a plane. The initial version of this script expects that the user has manually added the paint tool and selected it.
To run this script ensure that the script is saved in the Fusion/Scripts/Comp directory. Select the paint tool to be affected by the script and run the script from the Scripts menu of Fusion. Sample data (CollisionShort.dat) has been included for download so the script can be tested.

Batch Changer
Change parameters in all selected tools at once, with SlayerK's Batch Changer script. Supports multiple choices for "FuID" inputs, and even simple expressions like +1, -2, *3, /4 for "Number" and "Point" inputs. Goes into Scripts\Comp.

Bf Rename 3

This script can be used to replace the default tool rename dialog. It uses the short name of the tool as prefix.
This script comes in two versions. Version 1 uses the default AskUser dialog which is not handy because it does not highlight the textdialog and does not react to enter or escape. Version 2 uses iup as interfaces and does not have these problems.
To run this script ensure that the script is saved in the Fusion/Scripts/Comp directory. Select the tool you want to rename. Run the script.You may use the hotkey manager at File-Scripts-Hotkey Manager to apply a shortcut e.g. CRTL-F2 to this script. Updated: CRTL-A for using the current name for all tools in selection & more (see header).

Category Color Changer

The Category Color Changer uses a hard-coded table of RGB color values to color-code every tool in a composite based on its category. This allows you to apply a standard color scheme to both newly created comps and older comps that had little or no color-coding. (Source)

Initially written by Casey Visco. Last revised Wednesday, December 20th, 2006

Invert Tools
Intended as a replacement for Fusion's standard Ctrl-W hotkey, which swaps foreground and background inputs of all selected tools. This script, however, has an additional convenient feature: use it on a ColorSpace, Gamut or CineonLog to invert the conversion. Erode gets turned into dilate, and on masks or transforms the "invert" checkbox will be toggled. Place it in Comp or HotkeyScripts and attach a keyboard shortcut. --Tilt

Renamer_glt

This script renames the selected tools (or all if nothing is selected). Similar to the renamer of Total Commander: inserting/replacing strings, inserting counter, or tool type abbreviation. See more description : : and use in the script. Current version: 1.02

Written by Gabor L. Toth. Last revised Saturday, March 31st, 2007

SE_PriorityPassthrough

PriorityPassthrough (de)activates user-definable sets of tools. The user has to put PL1, PL2, PL3 or PL4 into the comment-tab of the tool to assign the tool to a 'priority group'. Goes into Scripts\Comp.

Updated 15/05/07 as there was a little prob with animated tools.

SE_PrioritySetLevel
To easily set the PriorityLevel in selected tools. Goes into Scripts\Comp.

Tool Color Labels 2.1
Colorize all selected nodes using a palette of pre-defined colors (you can easily customize these colors as well as disable the second column of buttons inside the script). It's useful to map this script to a hotkey (for example ALT-C) for quick access. The 4 smaller swatches at the bottom only work on underlay nodes so you don't colorize all other selected nodes by accident. Version 2.0 now includes even more colors (based on Gringo's beautiful default settings) as well as a new reset button that will reset the colors to what you've saved in your Defaults: path map instead of Fusion's factory defaults. --Tilt

Bf_count_nodes

This script counts all (visible) nodes. It excludes invisible inputs for fusion 5.1 and 5.2 (compare to this)

Written by written by Blazej Floch. Last revised Monday, September 24th, 2007

Dump All Inputs
This comp script will generate a list of all possible node input and output values. You can use this output (id, name and current value) for further script, expression and macro development. --Fry 04:21, 9 April 2010 (EDT)

Add_Anything_v2
An extension of the Add Tool script that ships with Fusion. For an extensive description of the enhancements, please check out this thread. --sh4dow 13:14, 11 February 2012 (EST)

Add_Anything_Compact_v2
The reason I wrote "Add Anything" in the first place. A nice and small option for adding tools to your flow, basically combining the positive aspects of how it works in both Fusion and Nuke. As with "Add Anything", please check out this thread for an extensive description. --sh4dow 13:14, 11 February 2012 (EST)

Add Tool X v1.4
A enhanced version of Fusion's Add Tool scsript based on Sh4dow's Add Anything (see above) that remembers your favorite tools and improves searches for even faster access. Here's an extended description. --Tilt

Convert_Footage.eyeonscript
This script was made to automate creating of reference clips from firewire drives with film footage. It can be used to search folders recursive for footage in any file format that Fusion can load and convert it to any other file format fusion can write to. Creates comps for sequences and can submit them for render.

SM_Save_One_Comp_Per_Frame_0.1

Based on the Save New Version script, this script allows you to set a range of frames and automatically export a sequence of Comps, one for every single frame of that range.
The reason why this script can be useful is that with rendering of comps (the ones that are very heavy on memory use particularly), Fusion sometimes renders a LOT faster if it purges its memory after each single frame. For the moment there is no option to do this automatically*, but this workaround has the same result.

When using, make sure to save the comp FIRST using the necessary suffix and padding, for example FileName_frame_0000.comp!

• *Update: there is! Thanks to Sean Konrad, here's a very elegant solution to this problem, using an event script:

Make a comp script called "Set Purge Cache on Render End.eyeonscript" with the following contents:

globals.ev = AddEventSuite("Composition")
 
function ev:OnEndRender(event)
        fusion.CacheManager:Purge()
end

or you could add it to the OnFrameRendered event if you're not doing it one frame at a time:

function ev:OnFrameRendered(event)
        fusion.CacheManager:Purge()
end

Simply run this script and then render the comp. It will purge the cache as it goes along! --Pieter Van Houte 05:13, 16 April 2008 (Central Daylight Time)

You can also add this snippet to a saver's Frame Rendered Script field. It needs to initialize the fusion variable first which isn't defined by default for InTool scripts. Be aware that using this script for multiple savers will probably have negative side-effects. The order in which savers are rendered is unpredictable so chances are high that the cache will be cleared prematurely.

fusion = eyeon.scriptapp("Fusion", "localhost")
fusion.CacheManager:Purge()

Tool hotkeys

(Rename .eyeonscript to .rar to extract the archive)
I created a set of hotkeyscripts and a hotkey setting for adding tools to the flow.
If a tool is selected the new one will be inserted rigth next to it and remains all connections of the tool. It will be even inserted between. So main output of selected tool become main input of the new one and main output of the new one become input for downstream tools.
The polymask was altered by Stefan Ihringer, so that it will connect to the mask input of tools.

So, the hotkey settings look like this:

Flow = {
-- My own HotKeys
--***************************************************
M = "@Scripts:/HotkeyScripts/Merge.eyeonscript",
C = "@Scripts:/HotkeyScripts/BrightnessContrast.eyeonscript",
ALT_B = "@Scripts:/HotkeyScripts/Blur.eyeonscript",

W = "@Scripts:/HotkeyScripts/Saver.eyeonscript",
B = "@Scripts:/HotkeyScripts/ChannelBoolean.eyeonscript",
ALT_C = "@Scripts:/HotkeyScripts/ColorCorrector.eyeonscript",
SHIFT_C = "@Scripts:/HotkeyScripts/ColorCurves.eyeonscript",

P = "@Scripts:/HotkeyScripts/Paint.eyeonscript",
G = "@Scripts:/HotkeyScripts/ColorGain.eyeonscript",
--****************************************************
},

--Michael_v

update: Fusion 6 had already improved the AddTool() function but it's only since 6.32 that the following shortcut can be used without occasional crashes. Instead of calling scripts from your hotkeys file, you can simply call AddTool to automatically create and connect any kind of tool:

Flow = {
B = "t = self:Composition():AddTool('Blur', true, -32768, -32768)",
},

Track One Frame
This comp script allows you to track only one frame forward or reverse. --Fry 04:38, 9 April 2010 (EDT)

Export Animation to AfterEffects
This script converts an animated input of the current tool to text data that can be copy&pasted into AfterEffects (CS3 and above). You can export number and point controls to position, anchor, scale, opacity or rotation. Updated 2011/07: better handling of exported 3D transformations --Tilt

Import Animation From Text File
A powerful script to import keyframes from files where there is one line of data for each frame (space or comma-separated). View Screenshot. Can be used to animate 2D point controls or single value sliders. Regular paths as well as XY-Paths are supported. The file's values can be Fusion's normalized coordinates or they can denote pixels with the origin being at the bottom, top or center. You can also choose to skip a certain number of lines before the first line of data is read. --Tilt

Update Render Location
This tool script is meant to be used in conjunction with the "Save New Version" script. It will update a saver's path so that it matches the new comp name. It also takes into account situations where rendered image sequences are to be put into subfolders of the same name. --Tilt

Graceful LD Failure
This will add a BG and DX to your LD so that the LD will not fail a render if it is out-of-range. --Chad

Loader/Saver version up
Simple tool script that increases the version number in a loader or saver (best use as a hotkeyscript to easily switch between different versions of your source). Goes into Scripts\Tool. --Michael_v

Loader/Saver version down
Simple tool script that decreases the version number in a loader or saver (best use as a hotkeyscript to easily switch between different versions of your source). Goes into Scripts\Tool. --Michael_v

Comp_Name_&Saver&_Date_to_Saver_v03

Changes the Filename field of selected savers to <CompName>_<Saver>_<YYYY.MM.DD>.0000.<ext>
Where

• CompName - your composition's name
• Saver - the part of a saver's name after "Saver_" (e.g. if your saver's name is "Saver_OutputA", it'll take OutputA)
• YYYY.MM.DD - current date
• .0000 - sequence padding (added only to sequences)
• ext - original extension that has to be set beforehand.

Based on Rocket_Science_Saver_Clip_Rename.eyeonscript by Brian Sinasac, reworked by Igor Kozitsyn, Dmitry Korshunov, Dmitry Slepichev and Gregory Chalenko.
You can easily modify the items included into the file name by editing the following line in the script: FileName = compName..fragment.."_"..os.date("%Y.%m.%d")

This version: Comp_Name_&Saver&_Date_to_Saver_Folder_v03 also creates a subfolder level higher for the new sequence.

Saver_to_Render2D_CompName&Saver_v04
Assigns the output file name for savers from this template: <CompName>_<Saver>.0000.<ext> and sets the path to the project output folder relative to the composition. Options for this script such as naming template, padding, project's output folder can be set by editing corresponding section of the script with a text editor. --Gringo

Convert Path to XY Path

This script will convert an input that has been animated with a path modifier to an XY path (optionally ignoring either the X or Y axis). It can bake the animation or just convert the path's keyframes, but it can't convert smooth bezier handles. Note: In older versions of Fusion (before 6), you shouldn't convert tracker paths directly as this will prevent the tracker from working properly. Instead, connect the stable or unstable inputs to a Xf or Merge node and then use this script. --Tilt

I updated this script to fix two issues. The first was a bug that would cause it to ignore some types of Path. It was also using 1 for the default Start Frame, when some compositions will start from 0. I updated the script on May 14th, 2008 to fix those two issues. --Izyk

As of Fusion 6.14, you can convert a spline from Polyline to XY Path and vice versa by using the right-click menu in the viewport.

Destabilize Transform v3
Based on Destabilize Transform that is shipped with Fusion. This version is now capable of connecting trackers to any tool that has a center, size or angle input (not just Xf and Mrg anymore). It can also rename and/or color the tool. --Tilt

LensDistort for Syntheyes
Fusion's lens distortion tool supports 3DEqualizer's distortion models only. However, users of Syntheyes can use this script to easily convert their distortion coefficient! There are some things to consider, which are better described in a picture :-) Please note that it has only been tested with square pixel aspect ratios --Tilt

Track Published Points
Run this tool script on a spline mask with published points, and it will set up a Tracker & connect all the points to it, ready for tracking. Place the script into Scripts\Tool. It is designed to work on spline masks and b-splines.

Tracker to Transform
This script connects transform to selected tracer, bakes animation, and allows averaging keyframes or removing jitter. Also allows to change reference frame and scale transform values. Saves last settings to comp.

3-Point-ImagePlane
This tool script allows you to create an image plane from three points of a point cloud. Use it to easily setup walls and floors for projection setups. Since there's no way for this script to know which points you have already selected in the viewer, you will have to launch the script and then hover your mouse over points in the 3D viewer to get each point's name as a tooltip. --Tilt

Export 3D Transform

This tool script will export a baked version of a 3D tool's transforms to a space delimited ASCII text file. The first line of the file has three entries as follows :

id rotation_order target

id

The id of the current tool type, as returned by tool:GetID(). i.e. a Camera would be Camera3D

rotation_order

A string describing the current rotation order

target

Will be 1 if the Use Target checkbox was selected, otherwise it is 0

The remaining lines have the following format

time x y z rot_x rot_y rot_z pivot_x pivot_y pivot_z target_x target_y target_z [angle_of_view]

The angle of view will only appear if the tools id is Camera3D and the type of camera is not orthogonal.

Freeze Cam

This tool script creates a projection camera from a selected Camera3D tool, freezing its animation on the current frame. The frame number and source camera name will also be added to the tool's comments. If you insert the following block into your Fusion.menus file, you'll be able to quickly access this script by right-clicking on any camera tool. --Tilt

    Camera3D = {
        { "Freeze Projection", [[@Scripts:Tool\Freeze Cam.py]] },
    },

SE_PointCloudFun
This script allows for adding imageplanes at PointCloud points, as well as setting up 4 3DLocators at selectable points of a PointCloud. A huge Timesaver when dealing with 3D-tracked scenes. It goes into scripts\tool and works on PointCloud3D only.

SE_SetTargetToCam
Activate any 3D tool's target and line it up with one of the cameras in the scene. It goes into scripts\tool and works on 3d tools only.

Switch 3D Renderer type
This script allows to switch renderer type of all (or selected) Renderer3D tools in composition to OpenGL or Software renderer.

Bake Animation
This is a Python version of the bake animation script that comes with Fusion. It allows you to bake multiple inputs at the same time and can be restricted to a certain frame range. The simpler and thoroughly commented version shown in the Python tutorial is also included in the archive. --Tilt

Connect Mask Stacks

Run this ToolScript on the bottom-most mask of a Mask-Stack to connect the values of all upstream masks to the selected mask.

So now you can move and modify *all* the masks from just one tool. Especially useful on imported SVG shapes.

Copy Keyframes
This Script will help to copy keys to another time. It shows a dialog with all keys at the current time and lets the user decide which of them should be copied. Enter a destination frame and hit okay, all selected keys will be copied to the destination frame. Goes into Scripts\Tool. --Michael_v

Edit Multistrokes

Now you can paint with the speed of multistrokes, and still be able to edit and animate them like single-strokes. These two scripts can convert a multistroke into a series of single-strokes, and vice-versa, with full undo. This allows you to easily edit, reposition, rearrange, retime or remove individual strokes, and to group, combine or re-combine single strokes for added render speed & stability. Essential tools for serious Fusion painters.

For Fusion 5.21 or later. Place the script into Scripts\Tool. Last revised 5th March 2008 by Daniel.

Invert Animation Curve
This script inverts a bezier spline by swapping time and value of each key frame. So for example a key at 10 with a value of 44 will end up as a key at frame 44 with a value of 10. --Tilt

Select Similar
These 2 Scripts will select other tools with the same color or from the same type. Goes into Scripts\Tool. --Michael_v

SelectWirelessSource
A little tool script that selects the source of a WirelessLink Fuse and moves the FlowView to it. Goes into Scripts\Tool. --Michael_v

SE_TextPlusPlus
How many times have you wanted to copy the settings from one Shader in Text+ to another for adding further elements? And how many times did you end up copying values back and forth manually? This little script helps you achieving this in just a mouseclick. For now it won't copy animated values, though. It goes into scripts\tool and works on Text+ only.

Un-Modify
This script removes a modifier from an input but keeps the rest of the modifier chain instead of completely killing the animation. In other words: it's the undo command for the "Insert... (modifier)" menu item. --Tilt

Wireless tools renamer

Script just rename all of WirelessLink tools in your comp, by rule: W_sourceToolName , where W_ - is prefix (you can change it inside script).

To install just place script to Fusion\script\comp\ dir, or any other dir, where fusion can see your script.

-robbi

JefeCheckThis

A ToolScript that makes a preview and opens it in JefeCheck (http://jefecheck.jefecorp.com/) (quiet similar to the built-in "create preview on" feature). On Loader/Savers it will just open in jefeCheck with the footage of the loader/saver. on all other tools it will create a temporary saver, renders and opens jefeCheck with the new Footage User can specify path and name for the temporary footage User can select proxylevel of rendering (level 1 is HiQ on) Goes into Scripts\Tool.

--Michael_v

User Controls

Building a fancy macro, or just customizing an existing tool? Want to hide built-in controls, customize them, or add a whole new control of your own to drive your expression wizardry? This is the script for you - check it out. Currently, you can hide most built-in controls, or add a variety of window- or view-controls, with many options. Added controls don't immediately do anything, of course, but expressions on other controls or even other tools can reference them, which can be particularly useful for macros.

For Fusion 5.21 or later. Place the script into Scripts\Tool. Last revised 7th Oct 2008 by Daniel.

This script is installed by default with current versions of Fusion. Watch a video on eyeon's youtube channel about how to use it to improve the interface of your macros.

The inputs and attributes you can select with this script are related to the SDK that is used for writing plugins and Fuses. Please refer to the page about input controls and their attributes.

Log Manager

This script was designed to help manage the logs generated by the Fusion Render Manager.
There are 2 tools available in this script, Split Render Log tool and the Log Analyzer tool. The Split Render Log tool allows the user divide their single large render log into a much more manageable daily log. The Log Analyzer tool allows the user to view information for a specific day and broken down into specific jobs. The data is displayed in a series of tabs as follows:

• General Information – job title, requester, render status, start, end and render time as well as the list of machines used in the render.
• Errors – all errors found for the specified job
• Verbose – all log entries for the specified job

Additionally, the Log Analyzer allows the user to save the file in a printer friendly format. IUP was used to create the user interface.

To run this script ensure that the script is saved in the Fusion/Scripts/Utility directory. Run the script from the File->Scripts menu of Fusion.

GetCmdHelp.eyeonscript
Directly display help in SciTE console on selected eyeonscript objects and methods.

Auto PathMap
This scriptlib will check for the existence of files and then set a global path map entry based on which file was accessible. This way, comps can use a path mapping (e.g. "Host:") in loaders that will always point to the footage. You can use this to share a comp between artists on different locations, take your comp and a copy of the footage with you on a laptop while travelling or use a virtual machine like Parallels on a Mac (where the Mac's hard drive is mapped to a virtual network share) without the need to search&replace path names.

Syntheyes / Fusion Bridge

The package consists of three scripts: an advanced exporter for Syntheyes, a Python script for Syntheyes that is able to create and update tools from a matchmove (camera, point cloud, planar trackers) and a small tool script for Fusion that sets up a Syntheyes project from a selected Loader. Syntheyes Pro 2013.11 or later required for the Python scripts. Readme included.
The Fusion6 exporter is based on the Fusion5 script that ships with Syntheyes and has been updated in many ways:

• support for stereo camera pairs
• support for planar trackers (with or without planar export preparation script)
• work area (timeline) options
• Create locked cameras to prevent their accidental modifications
• Added project info to comp's comments tab and footage name to camera's comments
• various fixes like paths and obj meshes
• convert paths to a Windows format when running Syntheyes on Mac/Linux

A script for older versions of Syntheyes (without planar tracking but with most other enhancements mentioned above) can be found here.

Web based render monitor

More monitor than render manager, but hey.. you can monitor via web browser your render queue, to move comps up/down, to remove them from queue and save the queue itself.

• It has option to connect to any available QueueManager on the local network.
• Implemented simple ACL - access control list via remote IP adress, to control who can operate the queue.
• Tested with apache web server for Windows.

To install - (a)change file extension to cgi; (b)place it in cgi-bin directory of the web server; (c)edit the first two lines - path to eyeonscript.exe and default render master in your network.

Batch List Footage

This script outputs a list of all loader images/sequences and saver files. Each line of a text file is read for a .comp filename. The script will open each comp in fusion and output the queried information. This is a modification of the original List Footage script for batch purposes.
