Kineme3D crash

In the past i've updated some Kineme-plugins and now the Kineme3D Object Loader doesn't function properly anymore. When i try to connect a .obj of .dae file to the 3D Object Renderer Quartz Composer crashes and generates the following crashreport:

I've attached the composition and the .dae file i used.

In the past this composition used to work. Should i update or downgrade some plugins in order to get this working again?

KnM 3D / render in image flicker

Hi, i'm having problems using KnM3D FBX mesh loader and renderer, when used in a render in image patch. The whole object is flickering, when shadows are enabled.

See the attached example comparing apple's stock teapot and a FBX teapot, exported straight from 3dsmax.

Is it hardware related ? i tested on a Geforce 9600M and a 9400M. Can anyone confirm ?

Thanks in advance.

Is this a Bug? Structure To/From File patches

The .plist file is accurate.

The structure output from Structure From File appears out of order?

Struct Maker data:

Structure From File outputs:

Lighting Bypass

It would be useful to have a macro, much like the GL Shade Model, that allowed an object inside a Lighting Environment to not be affected by the Lighting Environment, assuming that it would yield the kind of performance increases that it does when one typically compares FPS with renderers inside a Lighting patch vs. not in a Lighting patch. It may be useful for it to be combined with the GL Shade Model.

This isn't a priority thing, but something that has occurred to me, as Lighting issues come up regularly in my discussions with people who use QC (surprisingly).

Structure > Outputs Patch

Here's an idea for an addition to a future Structure Tools: A patch that takes a structure as input, and creates an output port for itself of the appropriate type for each item in the structure.
