I recently bought Particle Illusion, and find that it's an amazing particle generator that compliments Shake's lack of one. One thing I am trying to do is get the positions data from a tracker in Shake into Particle Illusion. I know that this is easily done with After Effects and that there are plugins for other compositing software available. Is there a plugin for Shake that does this?
Hi,
Have Tried to Save the Transform Values as a text and importing in Illusion.
for eg. after your tracking is done in shake go to track1X and track1Y, keep your cursor on the values and right click it will whow you the option to save the values as a text file ( save expression and load expression ).
just try it out.

You can used an extrenal Tracker like PFTrack or Boujou to track and then export the data.
I saved the expressions and tried to load them in PI, but every way I tried crashed PI every time. And I don't have PFTrack or Boujou. I have After Effects 5.5, which I don't use any more, but it seems like a waste of time to have to go and track something in there when it's already tracked in Shake and I'm doing all the compositing in Shake, not to mention that Shake has a better tracker.
