it may well work but you sailing dangerous waters. Using commands in a
scripted op and referencing objects other than through connection ports is a
serious no-no.
Have you tried a refresh in between the command, Oz?

Oz,
I think that you can solve this problem by using a scripted op.
Simply get a new object ( a null for example).
Place a scripted operator on any parameter.
Place your code:
SetValue "Dog_Head.Head.polymsh.clustershapecombiner.Point_AUTO_Wt", 0
SetValue
"DOG_HEAD.HEAD.polymsh.cls.Texture_Coordinates_AUTO.Texture_Projection5.Came
raTxt.Freeze", False
SetValue
"DOG_HEAD.HEAD.polymsh.cls.Texture_Coordinates_AUTO.Texture_Projection5.Came
raTxt.Freeze", True
SetValue "DOG_HEAD.HEAD.polymsh.clustershapecombiner.Point_AUTO_Wt", 1
before the Out.Value = 1 (could be any desired value, not necessarily one)
Then add a variable (you can call it "update") and place a single keyframe
on it in order to have the op update on every frame.
I have created a scene with the names matching your scene's object names.
I can send it to you off the list if you like.
Hope this helps,
Jabbar

Subject: HELP: Bug running a script
This pretty urgent! I've encountered a bug running a script, and I am in a
middle
of the tight project...
I am doing a camera projection on shape animated face,
I need to mute shape deformation BEFORE each frame, unlock the cam
projection-
lock it again, then turn on the shape deformation again..
it all works great when doing it MANUALY..
but when Puting it into a script it doesnt work when being run.
here's the script:
rem * mute shape animtion *
SetValue "DOG_HEAD.HEAD.polymsh.clustershapecombiner.Point_AUTO_Wt", 0
rem * un lock cam projection *
SetValue
"DOG_HEAD.HEAD.polymsh.cls.Texture_Coordinates_AUTO.Texture_Projection5.Came
raTxt.Freeze", False
rem * Lock cam projection *
SetValue
"DOG_HEAD.HEAD.polymsh.cls.Texture_Coordinates_AUTO.Texture_Projection5.Came
raTxt.Freeze", True
rem * un mute shape animation *
SetValue "DOG_HEAD.HEAD.polymsh.clustershapecombiner.Point_AUTO_Wt", 1
I've tried running those commands from the script editor, one at a time
(one line script) , and it works.. running them automaticaly one after the
other (as a four line script) and it doesnt do a thing..
I even tried to make delays between each line of a few seconds.. doesnt work
as well..
I really need help on this one.. any work around? any other way of making
this autamitacly?
thanks!!!
