Perfect tool!! Im looking forward. I work in vfx industry and it would be nice if camera can have image plane and background image (starting and ending of image plane sequence) can be anjusted also with Camera Mixer layout.
Thank a lot for developing this tool!!

Okay.
It’s almost there.
I’m still fixing bugs, some performance issues and mostly UI ergonomy.
I’m almost done, but there still is an annoying blitting problem.
The background image is a good idea !
But I think it will be for the second version :]
v0.1 is released !
Awesome, but please make a instalation guide for dummies, because i don´t know,if I need pyton for install this baby.
Hello Nando,
Here are the files I’ve installed to develop (and so use) the tool :
- Python 2 (I tried on 2.6 and 2.7, the following filenames are according to 2.7)
- pywin32-216.win32-py2.7.exe
- wxPython2.8-win32-unicode-2.8.11.0-py27.exe
And in the project’s README, you should see that you need to run the file tools/registerPythonCom.ms from 3dsmax before being able to use the mixer.
Not working for me. I have 3dsmax 2009 X64 and i install the Python 2,7 X32 and pywin32-216.win32-py2.7.exe, wxPython2.8-win32-unicode-2.8.11.0-py27.exe. I registered registerPythonCom.ms in MAX. The i try to open the file CameraMixer.py i get the message ” An error has occured, 3dsmax’s side COM may haven’t been registered yet
No connection with 3d software”
The i try to install Pyton 2,7 X64 the other 2 will not install “pywin32-216.win32-py2.7.exe and wxPython2.8-win32-unicode-2.8.11.0-py27.exe.
I really need you script, but in dont know how to install it. Can u help me please? THX
Hmmm…
The 32bit version of python and wx works for both 32 and 64 bit versions of max, so it’s not the problem.
The only thing I see for the moment is that I suppose you’re using windows vista/seven home edition.
If it’s the case, run 3dsmax in administrator mode (right click on the shortcut, “run as asminstrator”), you need to have the admin privilegies to register the COM part of the script.
If it’s not enough, do the same with the python script, this should do the trick.
