    You should explain the security pop-up instead of just saying "Just say yes." The security pop-up is asking if the person sitting at the keyboard trusts the person providing the script in the blender file. If you downloaded it off the net from someone you don't know, you probably shouldn't trust it, as it can do anything to your computer that you yourself can do. In this case, you're writing the script yourself, so you trust that person.
    In particular, if you get that pop-up when you don't expect it, definitely say "no", as it might be someone trying to steal from you.
    Wonderful content, as always!

      Hey Darren, beautifully said. I'll pin your comment to be sure others are educated in the right definition of the pop up.

      hehe I remember autodesk had to release security tools thing for 3ds max because of that around 2014.

    I'm going to want to connect one of my MIDI interfaces with a gazillion sliders, buttons, and knobs to Blender. It would be killer for adjusting lighting or maybe even realtime control of animations. The possibilities are endless!

    I've tried figuring drivers out for months, but this is the first guide that clearly and simply explain it. Thank you, looking forward to use it. 🙂

    Well done.
    So what about using a scripted expression file for a more complicated function() to be executed?
    For example, set up a slider that changes the length of an organ pipe
    The slider is calibrated in resonance frequency, with the value visualised into the Blender space. When you increase the control slider, the organ pipe length changes and its resonant frequency is displayed within Blender.
    Is it possible to read and write a text file with a scripted expression so that I can pass variables to a modelling package such as Spice. That way I can work in say an acoustic domain for modelling and design, but have the results conformally mapped into the physical domain within Blender?
    Data and messages get passed by a simple text file. Mapping to memory locations is faster and more efficient but also more complicated.

    excellent tut , can we use a midi controller to use as a driver in blender ?

    @Emmanuel72 Před 2 lety +1

    Wow this is awesome !! imagine connect this to physical buttons and knob like a loupedeck CT or arduino's (like firefly plugin on rhino-grashoppper) ! :o

      Oh, thanks a ton for the inspiration! I have a project going on that's all about physical inputs that map to arbitrary outputs, and I think Blender drivers might be a perfect demonstration for what that might be useful for! (And thanks to the Python API, it might even be actually possible to implement :D)

    Good explanation. Quick Q.... What screen keys (keyboard/mouse) did you use? I haven't seen that before.

      I use OBS with kypress-osd and a custom NohBoard-ReWrite-v1.3.0 layout.
