      Hi Ilya,

      sorry, to hear you got banned from cgsociety. I checked with Björn (srek), neither he nor MAXON had anything to do with this.
      For the new features of the API, like Motion Blur, you will have to wait for the release and final documentation.

      also need to recompile and refactory non-legacy code according new sdk?

      In general plugins compiled for R16 will work in R17. So if you don't need features from R17, you can still compile against R16 (or even prior versions).
      There will be minor changes in R17 SDK, that need changes in your code to compile. We are still working on the documentation, but are planning to provide guides as soon as possible.

        Great, hopes-hopes. Thanks. I simply maintain several in-house plug-ins, i still have c4d users.
        ----------
        Srek simply request to ban me to Leigh or Keenly(they are admins), she or he do it.
        I was rude and harsh about silence from maxon hq stuff and etc.
        Anyway i switch to AutoDesk discussion groups and social network in companies. And will forget cgs

            Hi Ilya,
            of course, MAXON cannot lose feature development capabilities and will replace people leaving. We already have a suitable replacement for sculpting.

              Sure thing. I was afraid after reading of Paul Everett suggestion about dropping of development for unused projects

                Hi
                I hope Token support is included in Python even though it's not listed?
                And will there be a Python API for the Houdini Engine? To load and query assets or get houdini version/path etc?

                  up to several post

                  Regarding news in the R17 SDK, here are a the most important points:

                  Python
                  - Take System Support

                    Takes and Tokens are not the same thing. Both are listed under C++. Only takes is listed under Python.
                    I'm worried because we need this to resolve C4D paths in Deadline.

                          Such?
                          for current beta(1) - > id of prefshoudini = 1032269

                          import c4d  
                          from c4d import documents, plugins  
                            
                          def prefs(id) :  
                            return plugins.FindPlugin(id, c4d.PLUGINTYPE_PREFS)  
                              
                          def main() :  
                            c4d.PrefsLib_OpenDialog(1032269)  
                            print prefs(1032269)[c4d.PREFS_HOUDINI_ENGINE_VERSION]  
                            print prefs(1032269)[c4d.PREFS_HOUDINI_ENGINE_INSTALLATION_PATH]

                            main()
                          

                          Another things are through ctypes + several modules, according sdk - http://www.sidefx.com/docs/hengine1.9 + hdk , even enviro vars like HAPI

                            Yeah, today, after discussions with my employer, they decided will not upgrade to r17. They found replacement of mograph and something in c4d, in own in-house tools.

                            Good bye c4d, sdk team. Thanks for all

                                        I test my several plug-ins, slightly. Something were change.
