Could we get a bit more info or a tutorial on how this compound is working?

Hi cg_oglu -

I will work with the learning team to get a short tutorial made on this one - thanks for reminding me!

In the meanwhile, did you have a look at the in-app docs for that graph?  Do you have specific questions? 

[Christoph_Schaedl]

Thanks Marcus im not in the office the next days. I will take a second look if im back.

[Christoph_Schaedl]

It took me a while but i tried it again and failed.

Im not able to get it working.

Maybe someome can take a look. Here is my Maya file.

Has really noone managed to get this compound working?

Im still not able to see any results.

Hi there!  Apologies for the delay - I will take a look and post an updated compound as soon as I can.

I just uploaded a new version of the carver, works with 2.1.0.0.  Also added docs and file browser widget, and made it way faster by re-implementing the carving using the new point cloud queries (as opposed to my previous approach involving volumes).

Once the AREA gatekeeper people accept my upload, it should show up.  I don't know how many business days that will take.. We'll see.

Thanks Marcus!

It does work so far. But it does miss out some areas?

Why isnt it using the full volume of the sphere?

Here the scene file.
