# Pop this into a toolbar button's script window in Houdini
# Select a camera (or a camera switcher) and press the button
#
# A newly generated python script is now on the clipboard.

# Ultra quick'n'hacky AE camera animation importer for Houdini.
# Create a new shelf, create a new tool, paste this into the script box.
#
# In AE, select the Orientation and/or Position keyframes, and Ctrl/Cmd-C them to the clipboard
# Open a new text file (Notepad or Textedit) and paste the clipboard contents in. There's your keyframes.
# Save the text file somewhere and amend the filename line below to suit
# In Houdini, create a camera (it's up to you to set the same zoom / aperture as the AE one).
# ... and run this script (well, press the shelf button you stuck this on)

// Blend Add Shader (as used in Diablo 3)
// Uses the alpha channel to determine if the pixel needs to be blended additively or by transparency.
// Is a good way prevent the additive buildup that makes a scene with a lot of particle effects white and unreadable while still having some particle texture features.
