Without scripting the repertoire of a 3D artist is incomplete. Extending Art of Illusion (AOI) provides 3D artists with the information they need to write scripts for AOI. The most significant change for the second edition is the introduction of the Cloth Maker Plugin (beta). The Cloth Maker Plugin example gives the 3D artist the ability to simulate cloth from within AOI and a code framework upon which to implement their own cloth simulator.The second edition covers moving AOI scripts from BeanShell to Groovy.Included are all the examples and reference material from the first edition, updated for AOI 3.0.3. Example scripts and plugins add features to AOI that are useful on their own, including the ability to: Simulate ClothPoint one object at anotherRest an object on the floor or another objectDraw a box around a sceneRender a tile texture with lines between the tiles
