Playlists¶
Playlists allows users to quickly review multiple projects in meetings or demonstrations. It cycles through a given set of .blastproj files and is controlled via a gaming controller or keyboard. The user can manipulate the viewing angle, zoom, playback, HUD stats with a game pad controller.
While in this mode, each project will loop its animation until prompted to move to the next project in the list. The hairWorks Viewer will cycle back to the first project once the entire list of projects has been exhausted.
Playlists are all loaded from the media/playlists folder.
