Hi,

some time ago, I published the Vray Proxy Creator, which worked quite well. But suddenly, the plugin does not register anymore and throws an error instead:

// 1. Create MeshExporter Tag   
var ExpTag = AllocTag(VRAY_EXPORTERTAG_ID);     // Create Vray MeshExporter Tag   
doc->AddUndo(UNDO_TAG_NEW, ExpTag);             // Add Undo   
op->InsertTag(ExpTag);                          // Attach tag to original object   
  
// 2. Create VrayProxy object   
var PrxObj = AllocObject(VRAY_PROXYOBJECT_ID); // Create VrayProxy object   
PrxObj#VRAYPROXY_LINK = ExpTag;                 // Link tag into object

The message in the C4D console points out a syntax error in the last line of the above shown code. Why? It always worked, what has happened?

Thanks for any tipps!

Edit: The complete source code is shown and also available for download in the german C4D Wiki: http://wiki.c4d-jack.de/wiki/VrayProxy_Creator_(Coffee-Plugin)

Greetings,
Jack

I just noticed that it works again, if I replace the "VRAYPROXY_LINK" with the actual ID number.
But still, I wonder why it has worked before, and what could possibly have changed within Coffee.

Cheers,
