Where can I find the offline html COFFEE sdk? I have to update some of my old plug-ins and I really need it. I can only find C++ stuff :-(
Thank you in advance.

It is in the C++ Downloads Section. Here is the direct link to the HTML Files:
http://www.plugincafe.com/sdk/COFFEESDK6302.zip
And the WIn Help Files (which I prefer for you can find easier what you are searching for) :

Is the COFFEESDK6302.zip the latest sdk documentation? I mean, does it contain the updates to release 8?

Hi,
yes this is the latest documentation. Thought some things have changed (emulation purposes) there is no COFFEE Update for R8 yet.
Sorry, for the MAC thing. Forgot about it. :)

There must be an update. For intance, the Display tag has new options. I want to know how to set them. This has changed in r8.

No problem. Common mistake ;-)

_______________________
There is Definetely no update for COFFEE. And for COFFEE doesn´t support BaseLinks yet, it seems that it is impossible for now to set the display options, for you can´t access them through the basecontainer system with COFFEE anymore.
Same for some (any?) other basecontainer values. I.e. the source object for an instance object can´t be set anymore. (I do have this problem with my latest plugin too :\ ) and others.
Sorry.

That's just simply stupid!! :-(
Lots of nice COFFEE tools will not be able to be updated :-(
What was nice about C4D was that it allowed people with basic knowledge of programming (me!! ;-) and with a simple word processor to be able to create fine tools.
This is, somehow, closing the doors :-(
And the removal of the "Reload Plug-ins" option is one of things that annoyed me the most :-(

Yes, I know. But there will be a COFFEE update in the future for sure. So it is not gone.
But the removal of the Reload Plug-Ins option is one thing I miss too.

Now that I finaly succeeded in updating SpeeDisplay, I found that I also need to update the way the Display tags are set. Everything else is working fine. Now that I was so close I will have to wait for a COFFEE update :-( Darn!!!

There are still some things you can do with C.O.F.F.E.E. if you're willing to look up the IDs yourself. For example, consider Tdisplay.res:
CONTAINER Tdisplay
{
NAME Tdisplay;
INCLUDE Tbase;
GROUP ID_TAGPROPERTIES
{
COLUMNS 2;
BOOL DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_DISPLAYMODE { }
LONG DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE
{
CYCLE
{
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_GOURAUDSHADING;
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_QUICKSHADING;
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_WIREFRAME;
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_ISOPARMS;
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_SHADEDBOX;
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_BOX;
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_SKELETON;
}
}
BOOL DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_LEVELOFDETAIL { }
REAL DISPLAYTAG_LEVELOFDETAIL { UNIT PERCENT; MIN 0.0; MAX 1000; }
BOOL DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_VISIBILITY { }
REAL DISPLAYTAG_VISIBILITY { UNIT PERCENT; MIN 0.0; MAX 100.0; }
BOOL DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_BACKFACECULLING { }
BOOL DISPLAYTAG_BACKFACECULLING { }
BOOL DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_TEXTURES { }
BOOL DISPLAYTAG_TEXTURES { }
}
}
And the corresponding Tdisplay.h:
#ifndef _Tdisplay_H_
#define _Tdisplay_H_
enum
{
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE = 1000, // LONG
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_GOURAUDSHADING = 0,
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_QUICKSHADING = 1,
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_WIREFRAME = 2,
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_ISOPARMS = 3,
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_SHADEDBOX = 4,
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_BOX = 5,
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_SKELETON = 6,
DISPLAYTAG_BACKFACECULLING = 1001, // BOOL
DISPLAYTAG_TEXTURES = 1002, // BOOL
DISPLAYTAG_LEVELOFDETAIL = 1004, // REAL
DISPLAYTAG_VISIBILITY = 1006, // REAL
DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_DISPLAYMODE = 1007, // BOOL
DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_BACKFACECULLING = 1008, // BOOL
DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_TEXTURES = 1009, // BOOL
DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_LEVELOFDETAIL = 1010, // BOOL
DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_VISIBILITY = 1012 // BOOL
};
#endif
So by pasting the above you can still do things like:
enum
{
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE = 1000, // LONG
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_GOURAUDSHADING = 0,
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_QUICKSHADING = 1,
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_WIREFRAME = 2,
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_ISOPARMS = 3,
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_SHADEDBOX = 4,
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_BOX = 5,
DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_SKELETON = 6,
DISPLAYTAG_BACKFACECULLING = 1001, // BOOL
DISPLAYTAG_TEXTURES = 1002, // BOOL
DISPLAYTAG_LEVELOFDETAIL = 1004, // REAL
DISPLAYTAG_VISIBILITY = 1006, // REAL
DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_DISPLAYMODE = 1007, // BOOL
DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_BACKFACECULLING = 1008, // BOOL
DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_TEXTURES = 1009, // BOOL
DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_LEVELOFDETAIL = 1010, // BOOL
DISPLAYTAG_AFFECT_VISIBILITY = 1012 // BOOL
};
main(doc,op)
{
var tag = op->GetFirstTag();
var bc = tag->GetContainer();
bc->SetData(DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE, DISPLAYTAG_DISPLAYMODE_ISOPARMS);
tag->SetContainer(bc);
tag->Message(MSG_UPDATE);
}
The only time you're out of luck is when a type like BASELINK is used.
