dssi: diced same size interpolation of volumes
Linear interpolation is probably one of the most proliferated data processing algorithms in the world. From simple drawing of a straight line, through rescaling of images and last but not least performing affine transformations of volumetric data – all of these can be accomplished by some implementation of linear interpolation. […]
smqsched – Simple Multi Queue Scheduler
smqsched Simple Multi Queue Scheduler smqsched is a simple multi-threaded task scheduling module with support for multiple queues and directed acyclic graph (DAG) dependencies. Introduction smqsched was designed with the following objectives in mind: Allow existing code to be parallelized without significant refactoring To this end, smqsched uses promise-style creation […]
Astrophoto Color Stretch
For those of you who have already discovered the joys of snapping pictures of the night sky this subject won’t come as a surprise. For the uninitiated though I will start with a few words of introduction. Landscape astrophotography (also known as: Nightscape photography or simply – some may even […]
VocaBreak 17.3
VocaBreak was a very useful French learning tool for myself in 2011. Back then when Google was less vigilant about protecting its Google Translate API VocaBreak could help people learn all Translate-supported languages back and forth. These days to make it run I had to trim it down to its […]
Blender: Automatic Armature Generation
Continuing the marathon of Blender add-ons this time I’ve prepared an automatic armature generation script using only very roughly hand-assigned vertex groups as hints. You can judge the results of my endeavor by watching the tutorial video below and test the new functionality right away by downloading the script directly […]
Export Meshes from Mandelbulber
I’m happy to update this announcement about my little contribution to the open source Mandelbulber project. Earlier this week I’ve added to it a Mesh Export capability using Marching Cubes algorithm. To this end I’ve helped myself with the very clean and easy to use PyMCubes implementation. The rest was […]
Lightning Arcs
You will find a new script in my Blender Addons repository. It’s called lightning_arcs.py and builds on top of the Blender Laplacian Lightning plugin to create configurable arcs of lightning between particles of an object. Three empty objects have to be present in the scene – ELorigin, ELground and ARCheight. […]
Union Loose Parts
In Blender, having greebles consisting of multiple loose parts can pose a problem when trying to warp them into shape of an arbitrary surface using modifiers such as Curve, Lattice or ShrinkWrap. The result pictured in the back of the scene above shows how loose parts tend to detach from […]
dirsnap: compare longitudinal directory tree snapshots
This subject seems to be a recurring question: http://superuser.com/questions/48916/how-best-to-compare-huge-directory-trees http://serverfault.com/questions/39534/best-way-to-compare-diff-a-full-directory-structure As much as I appreciate existing solutions, they do not perform precisely what is requested and therefore can be described rather as workarounds. What I would like to present in this post is a utility capable of 1) creation of […]
