Hou Navigator 0.1 Spacemouse for Houdini

[FrankFirsching]

Where did you get your python installation from? I'm using the 64bit release from here: http://www.python.or...releases/2.5.4/
The problem now is, that your python seems to be built using Visual Studio 2003 (VC7), but WinSDK6 (that is needed for Houdini) is VC8. Again a version conflict . What's the output of python.exe if you start the interactive shell? Mine is:

Python 2.5.4 (r254:67916, Dec 23 2008, 15:19:34) [MSC v.1400 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32

Here MSC v.1400 corresponds with the compiler version. You can query the compiler version by calling "cl.exe --version". Here is my output:

Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 14.00.50727.762 for x64

I just noticed, that H10 is shipping with the python headers, so you should be able to use the python installation from there (%HFS%\python).

I download python-2.5.4.msi from there

you mean add to build.bat a path to Houdini\v10.0.430\python\bin\python2.5.exe ?

Mikx, if you look at your version numbers vs Frank's, then clearly you have *both* the wrong python build AND wrong compiler build.

You downloaded the 32-bit version as opposed to the 64-bit version. I hope you also downloaded the 64-bit version of Houdini.

But you're probably not *running* the compiler installed from there?

Since my Christmas holidays started today, I had some time to advance my home-project :-)
Here is version 0.2 of HouNavigator with Linux-support.
Unfortunately installation is only slightly easier as before (no more patching of hou_navigator.py source file). This will be one of the next things, I'm going to address.
The zip files comes only with a precompiled module for Win64, so Linux users will have to get their hands dirty and compile on their own.

Hope you like it...

P.S.: I also started a Sourceforge project: http://sourceforge.n...ts/hounavigator
