Documentation about scripting

 

Hi.


I'm interested in automating some actions in Aximmetry. Is there any documentation on how to use scripting? I'd like to know what features are scriptable and what is the API.

On a related subject, I see that there is a command-line switch to enable web-based control. Where can I find the documentation for the Web API?


Thank you.

Hi,

In Aximmetry scripting means doing complex calculations within the flow graph using Lua language. You can find some examples in the folder
[Tutorials]:Scripting

This kind of scripting cannot be used to control the Aximmetry system itself, and you probably looking for means for that, if I interpret your question correctly.

For outer control the system you need to create an external application and

- either use HTTP

- or OSC

Hi.

Thank you for your reply. Yes, I would like to automate things like setting the render resolution, then triggering taking a snapshot, and then resetting the resolution to a different value.

That is because I need to record high-res images, 5K or higher, but that type of resolution makes it impossible to have playback at an acceptable speed without an array of machines and super-high-end GPUs :)

Thank you.

Hi,

Do you want to use an Unreal scene for this?  And TrackedCam or VirtualCam?
