hey,

found the error. works exactly as i had planned. my code was correct, but i forgot to switch off use fields on the new vertex i mapped.

thanks for the help anyway!

can't test it right now, but this should do the trick.

you'll need to install these packages to your c4d installation to make it work

import win32gui
import win32ui
import win32co
from pynput.keyboard import Key, Controller
handle = win32gui.FindWindow(0, "Texture Manager")
    try:
        if handle:
            
            keyboard = Controller()    
            win32gui.SetForegroundWindow(handle)
            keyboard.press(Key.ctrl)
            keyboard.press(w)

            keyboard.release(Key.ctrl)   
            keyboard.press(w)
    except:
        pass

The default python generator returns a parametric object (c4d.Ocube). So you have to convert it to a editable poly in the generator itself. So you don't need a cso in your script but in the generator when using parametric objects.

Python Generator

import c4d
#Welcome to the world of Python


def main():
    c = c4d.BaseObject(c4d.Ocube)
    return c4d.utils.SendModelingCommand(command = c4d.MCOMMAND_CURRENTSTATETOOBJECT,list    = [c],
                                                 bc      = c4d.BaseContainer(),
                                                 mode    = c4d.MODELINGCOMMANDMODE_ALL,
                                                 doc     = doc,
                                                 flags   = 0)[0]

script

import c4d

doc = c4d.documents.GetActiveDocument()
gen =doc.GetActiveObject()
print gen.GetCache()

forget about it. i removed the c4d.OBJECT_INPUT flag during development and forgot to add it back.

this script breaks an poly object into island, colorized it by random, offset to center of bounding box and some noise. after that i connects all islands again.

its super fast compared to my older "solution"

import c4d
from c4d import gui
import random

def AddVertexColor(s,center,rad):

    cnt = s.GetPointCount()
    tag = c4d.VariableTag(c4d.Tvertexcolor, cnt)


    data = tag.GetDataAddressW()

    bs = s.GetPointS()
    bs.SelectAll(cnt)
    done = []

    points = s.GetAllPoints()


    r = random.random()



    for i in range(cnt):

        g = (points[0]-center).GetLength()    / rad
        b = c4d.utils.noise.Noise(points[0]*0.01,rad)
        c = c4d.Vector(r,g,b)

        c4d.VertexColorTag.SetColor(data, None, None, i, c)


    s.InsertTag(tag)


def main():
    random.seed(666)


    selection  = doc.GetActiveObjects(c4d.GETACTIVEOBJECTFLAGS_NONE)
    for s in selection:
        center = s.GetMp()
        rad    = s.GetRad().GetLength()
        c4d.CallCommand(12298)
        c4d.CallCommand(17891)
        mesh = s.GetDown()

        while mesh:

            AddVertexColor(mesh,center,rad)
            mesh = mesh.GetNext()
