I am working on a node that will drive a skinCluster node's weights. My node is calling compute when needed, as I've set up setDependentsDirty to dirty my dynamic attributes. So that all works.
What I'm having trouble with is transferring the weights to the skinCluster node's weightList. My node has an identically structured output that I'm connecting to the skinCluster's weightList attr, but it looks like the skinCluster node doesn't pull from that list very often. Is there some way I can trigger an update? I notice there is an attr on the skinCluster that is a dirty flag, but it's a message type. How does that work? How does weight painting or direct value setting through the component editor window trigger skin to update?
Any help would be great.
Thanks,
