I have a model that I am trying to export using the Torque Export.

I am getting an error. It is:

Failed to find capture region

It is coming from my deform node and it makes reference to a bone.

It also says to check that the capture region paths are set correctly.

Well, this bone capture region path looks just like the other bones except for its number.

Any ideas how to figure out what is going on?

Try inserting a Capture Correct SOP above the Deform to see if it can clean up the bone indexes.

I can't seem to figure out how to work the capture correct. I put it down just above the deform and put the region name of the bone and it stays with the yellow and black box inside of it indicating something is wrong. I have tried placing it right before the deform and also right after the capture weights.

Shouldn't there be a way to fix the problem with the bone region itself? Do you have any idea where this error comes from?

If you could email me at tony at shatalmic dot com I can email you the file. It would be great if you could figure it out and then explain to me what was wrong and how you fixed it. I am new to Houdini and trying to learn so I can figure this out myself in the future.

I would still be interesting in finding out what happened to this file, but I solved it for now a different way.

I deleteing the Capture Painting that I had created and added a Capture Region. I set up the regions and everything is working now.

Are you using the Capture or CaptureProximity SOP?

Origionally I had a Capture Paint. Now I am using a Capture Region.

I just got an answer back from SideFX. They tell me there was a bug in the Torque exporter and that it will be in today's software update.

Horray for SideFX! They are awesome and quick to fix!
