If you are using the official MH you will note that there are no output options at all.

ah, of course. thanks.

Oops, nope. `-h and --help` don't work. At least not when running from python source. It's giving `TypeError: not all arguments converted during string formatting` in the log, which (I've learned) actually means that the argument isn't recognized. I was able to figure it out by looking at the source though. `python makehuman.py myInputFile.mhm -o outputFile.mhx`

bah. no... that only appears to work, but actually the contents of the mhm file are completely ignored and I get the default human every time.

Run

Code: Select all

makehuman.py -h

It works, just tested with latest source.

Note that -o option DOES NOT EXIST. So I wouldn't be surprised you're getting some kind of error using it.


Edit: ah, it appears that you are talking about the commandline fork, not the official version. You should have said this more clearly.
Confirmed, I'll create an issue for it.

Note that I'm working on this when I have time, but currently I'm occupied with more pressing MakeHuman core features. It's not officially supported until it is included in the official release. Use at your own risk applies here.

Totally understandable. Thanks for all your great work, btw. I wouldn't mind putting some of my time into getting it working, but I'm finding the makehuman codebase pretty tough to get into. Any thoughts on why the mhm isn't getting read? The logs don't seem to have anything... my python_err.txt has the following bit between version info and MHX info that might be related, but I don't know what it is talking about... doesn't seem related but could be.

Running `makehuman.py myInputFile.mhm` loads up the file as expected, but if output file is specified (with -o) I just get the default (all .5s) mhx. Perhaps there is a load-mhm method somewhere which is getting skipped over because it is nested in one of the skipped gui methods?

MHM loading is a commandline feature of official MH. Output file is a feature of the fork.
Perhaps they are not unified yet, I can't remember.

mhm loading into the gui works on the cmd-line fork, but if I specify -o I get the default human every time. Regardless of what mhm I specify. I'll dig in some more now and see if I can track down where the .mhm gets loaded...

The console app doesn't seem to have any code for loading the mhm. I can use human.Human.load('fname.mhm') iff G.app.loadHandlers has been initialized by mhmain.MHApplication.loadPlugins which requires all kinds of other things to be set first. Looks like I've hit yet another dead end. Maybe there is an easier way?

Ideally I think consoleApp and mhApp would inherit from a base-app class, but that might require a lot of work.

I have refreshed my memory on this: it's not possible (read: it's too much of a hassle to do).
mhm file loading will work in GUI mode only.

For commandline use, use the separate input commands. MHM files are redundant in this case anyway.

I didn't realize that. I'll have to check out the man pages, but right now I only have the mh-cmdline branch (with broken -h). Is there a help page on cmd interface? I found this (http://www.makehuman.org/doc/node/comma ... usage.html), but it's very outdated.

That is the documentation of MakeTarget standalone, which has nothing to do with the MakeHuman application. (here is the most up to date version of it: http://www.makehuman.org/doc/node/maket ... alone.html)
Since this is an experimental branch, of course there is no documentation for it. You'll just have to read the source code in that case (the part that prints out the --help mesages).

blarg. my mistake. Well I've fixed the --help issue on the cmd branch so I'll just use that now. =)
