※ Note:
- The CLO API/SDK v.4.2.0 version corresponding to CLO 7.2.44 & 7.2.60 could not build on macOS, so the SDK was newly updated. If you need this version, please download a new SDK uploaded today. (2023.08.23)
- Starting from CLO 7.2.44 / CLO API/SDK v4.2.0, the Project must be built using CMake. Please refer to https://developer.clo3d.com/ (New API Documentation Webpage) for more information regarding CLO API.
- CLO API/SDK v3.1.3 is Obsoleted. Please use API/SDK v3.1.2 until API/SDK v3.1.4 is available. For more information please refer to the Notice (S3 / Ali).
- CLO 5.1.290 supports CLO API/SDK V2.3. You can use the Plug-in dll built with V2.2 as is for Windows OS; but in case you'd like to use the new functionalities on API, please update your API/SDK package to V2.3 and rebuild your plug-in project to dll and use it.
- For the Mac OS version of CLO 5.1.290, you should download the V2.3 of API/SDK package and rebuild your plug-in project to dylib.
- CLO 5.1.436 supports CLO API/SDK V2.5. You should rebuild the plug-in dll and/or dylib from the previous version.
Some API calls has been added into this version to support Unicode but CLO is not fully compatible with Unicode while saving/loading/exporting files so these Unicode related API calls might not work as expected.
Comments
I am going to create a plugin which exports all components without spending a ton of time to select each component and do the export, but it seems the API is too simple, and missing documentation. Could you please expose the header of classes: View3DBase, SceneGraph, PatternEditor, Library, I hope it can help me.
the documentation doesnt work with Mac - Catalina version since no access is provided on the root folder? are there any other work arounds that you may be able to help us with?
I tried following this and build but is full of errors and does not work.
Was using visual studio 2019, now use VS 2017 it works.
hey guys,
I am interested in @anhmv'ss idea and I was wondering how can we make something like that? thanks for any help.
I am trying to create a palette using my colors from (Library window project). Is there any inbuild API are available in CLO 3d level to generate ACO , ASE CCO files types. Any other option available to generate a palette please update?
Hey, is it possible to make any sort of interactions during simulation time via API, for example I want make character to be rotating around it self, so I don't have to rotate camera my self or something like this.
hey, does this API/SDK guide apply to Marvelous Designer as well or would it only work with CLO?
CLO 7.0 has been released, yet no API version has been updated checking the above SDK versions. It's assumed that there is no change between 6.2+ & 7.0 API , but built-in functionalities for some of the API(s) fail, for instance exporting 3D data in a compressed zip file. Will there be a new API released for CLO 7.0 ?
