Description
This class has file load and save capabilities. Currently, you can load iClone related files, objects, Alembic files, and output FBX files.
Alembic is an interchangeable computer graphics file format developed by Sony Pictures Imageworks and Industrial Light & Magic. Its primary focus is the interchange of geometry (models) between different groups working on the same shots or same assets. In layman's terms, Alembic is an open-source 3D model exchange format that can save animations baked into the geometry.
Supported Files Types
iClone can load the following file formats using LoadFile (highlights in yellow also support LoadObject):

Member Functions
LoadAlembic( self, spObject, strFilePath, eUpAxis )
Load related Alembic file to the selected object in the current scene. If loaded successfully return RStatus.Success, else RStatus.Failure.
Parameters
- spObject [IN] target object - RIObject
- strFilePath [IN] file path - string
- eUpAxis [IN] up axis - RLPy.ECoordinateAxis
- RLPy.ECoordinateAxis_X
- RLPy.ECoordinateAxis_NegativeX
- RLPy.ECoordinateAxis_Y
- RLPy.ECoordinateAxis_NegativeY
- RLPy.ECoordinateAxis_Z
- RLPy.ECoordinateAxis_NegativeZ
Returns
- Success - RLPy.RStatus.Success
- Failure - RLPy.RStatus.Failure
#load AlembicFile
file_path = "C:/test.abc"
selection_list = RLPy.RScene.GetSelectedObjects()
result = RLPy.RFileIO.LoadAlembicFile(selection_list[0], file_path, RLPy.ECoordinateAxis_Y)
LoadFile ( self, strFilePath )
Load a file from a specified path into the current scene. If the file loaded successfully then return RStatus.Success, else RStatus.Failure. Supports every iClone file format.
See Also: Supported Files Types
Parameters
- strFilePath [IN] file path - string
Returns
- Success - RLPy.RStatus.Success
- Failure - RLPy.RStatus.Failure
# load project file
file_path = "c:/myProject.iProject"
result = RLPy.RFileIO.LoadFile(file_path)
LoadObject ( self, strFilePath )
Load an object from a specified path into the current scene. If the file loaded successfully then return RStatus.Success, else RStatus.Failure. This function only supports objects that inherit from RIObject: RIAvatar, RICamera, RILight, RIParticle, RIProp.
Parameters
- strFilePath [IN] file path - string
Returns
- The loaded object - RIObject
# load object
object = RLPy.RFileIO.LoadObject("C:/CC_Standard_Neutral.iavatar")
print(type(object)) #RLPy.RIAvatar
object = RLPy.RFileIO.LoadObject("C:/Arc_001.iProp")
print(type(object)) #RLPy.RIProp
ExportFbxFile ( self, spObject, strFilePath, eOptions, eOptions2, eOptions3, eTextureSize, eFormat, strIncludeMotionPath )
Export an object in the scene to a FBX file; Allows for different export settings. If you would like to include animation data with the FBX file, then you can set a path to the animation file.
