nevermind, fixed.

function definiton differs. before:
GetDEnabling(GeListNode *node, const DescID &id;, GeData &t;_data, LONG flags, const BaseContainer *itemdesc);

and now:
GetDEnabling(GeListNode *node, const DescID &id;, const GeData &t;_data, LONG flags, const BaseContainer *itemdesc);

compiler just eats it but it wont work

Does this 'RayHitID' affect GeRayColResult?

Thanks for the heads-up on GetDEnabling(), fused!

Arggggg, materials again. Ack.

More questions:

1. AnimateDocument()? What's the replacement or should I change my dozens of references to AnimateDocumentExEx()?

2. UVWTag.Set(),Get(),Cpy() : What is the void* dataptr?

3. I see that a bunch of TreeViewFunctions have been made OBSOLETE and return error:

error C2555: 'FaveResultsFunctions::DrawCell': overriding virtual function return type differs and is not covariant from 'TreeViewFunctions::DrawCell'

In the middle of a commercial plugin project, having to update at least two other plugins is going to be distracting with so many changes. We haven't even touched materials yet. ;(

Hey Robert,

no idea what the "void* dataptr" is or does, but the old functions are still there. They were just renamed to *Slow(). SetSlow(), GetSlow(), CpySlow().

That was seen but while I'm updating (necessarily) these new methods should be employed. Hey, 'Slow()' infers that the new methods are faster and I can't pass that up!

I'm coming to the conclusion that this might involve you using the previously nonrecommended VariableTag::GetDataAddressR/W() and sending it with these methods for the UVWTag. Why that makes a difference in speed is beyond me (if my assumption is correct).

About GetDEnabling() and GetEnabling(), the t_data parameter is constant since CINEMA 4D R11.5.

virtual Bool GetDEnabling(GeListNode *node, const DescID &id;,const GeData &t;_data,LONG flags,const BaseContainer *itemdesc)

This is now:

Bool ExecutePasses(BaseThread* bt, Bool animation, Bool expressions, Bool caches)

It works now like this:

DrawCell() is the only new OBSOLETE function for tree views.

Yes, you are correct. I hadn't noticed having not used the others.

What happened to VIDEOPOST_REFRESH?

Here's a code snippet that no longer compiles:

> \> class spBakerVP : public VideoPostData \> { \> public: \>      virtual LONG GetRenderInfo(PluginVideoPost \*node) { return VIDEOPOST_REFRESH|VIDEOPOST_STOREFRAGMENTS; } \>

Is there something that replaces VIDEOPOST_REFRESH? Or do I just omit it now?

Thanks!
