Hi,I am trying to get the resulting BaseObject from a link field. It works well until the object is skinned to bones. If skinned, I get the original unskinned geometry.
This is run from inside GetVirtualObjects of an object plugin.
I am converting a copy of the object with CURRENTSTATETOOBJECT.
I am not using GetHierarchyClone (or GetAndCheckHierarchyClone) since they hide the original object, which I need to stay editable in the scene.Any help on how I can get the final state of skinned geometry?
Thanks

If I use
Bool* dirtyLink = false; BaseObject* res = op->GetHierarchyClone(hh, sourceObjectLink, HIERARCHYCLONEFLAGS_ASPOLY, dirtyLink, nullptr);I do get the deformed points after binding, but the source object disappears. How do I keep it from disappearing?

Hi salozo, thanks for writing us.
With reference to your request, you could try looking for and accessing the object's DeformCache through the GetDeformCache method and retrieve the final deformed data directly from there.
As side note please consider that using the GetHierarchyClone method as shown in your second post can't achieve the result you're looking for.Best, Riccardo

Thank you for your reply Riccardo.
I made some progress using GetDeformCache.
