Heightmap Surface [plug-in] (updated: 2014/Jun/30)

[micheus]

Unfortunately this kind of error is expected for every time which a new Erlang version is used to build Wings3d.

I rebuild the plugin and added the link to the post#1.

Thanks

Unfortunately no luck.. still the same problem with 1.6.0

I checked that the files got overwritten:

The Wings3D download is from the Wings webpage - no idea what version of Erlang that is.

It's 6.0 and that is why I add the text "compatible with...".

I noticed you are using Linux. I installed it on my Ubuntu 14.04 64bits without any probem as well as I coud create a mesh using it.

Maybe we need more information about you OS configuration: what linux distro? is it 64b too?
In which moment the error occurs? What the steps until you get it?

The error occurs exactly when clicking on "Micheus add on... -> Height Map Surface", i.e. when I'd expect the import window to open.

It must be my installation. I have more than one machine, all running Ubuntu 14.04 64bit. I'll have to try again on my home machine, but at work I did try it just now and it worked:

* Downloaded Wings3D 1.5.3 from the Wings homepage
* ran "bash wings-1.5.3-linux.bzip2.run"
* ran wings and installed the plugin via menu
* exited wings and copied the wings_ask.beam, overwriting the default that came with wings
* ran wings again - plugin works perfectly

I'll try again later when I'm back home with clean install with wiped config. Maybe it's just some leftover from an old installation causing issues.

Sorry for the confusion, and thank you for your kind help.

Hi micheus, awesome plugin!

Is it compatible with the latest Wings3D versions?

[micheus]

No, it isn't. The last version supported was 1.5.4.
There's no plans to update it, since it requires replace the wings_dialog in order to get that rampmap control. I don't want to do that for every new release.
May when we get that control inside the official distribution then I update it.
