Setting up qckPck

Installing the plugin

The download contains ZIP compressed files for all platforms supported by nodeMeister including the plugin as well as this documentation as a PDF. Extract the appropriate ZIP file for your platform.

Windows

The qckPck2018.p file can be copied to any directory where you keep your plugins. We recommend using a manually created plugin directory to separate third party plugins from plugins shipped with LightWave 3D. This will simplify upgrades of LightWave 3D.

Now use the Edit Plug-ins panel (alt-F11) of the Add Plugins menu item to add the plugin file qckPck2018.p to LightWave 3D.

You can also copy it to

%userprofile%.NewTek\LightWave\2018.0.4\plugins

to allow LightWave to detect the plugin automatically.

MacOS

You can copy the qckPck2018.plugin file into one of two locations for LightWave to use it automatically.

You can either copy it to:

~/Library/Application Support/Newtek/LightWave2018.0.6/Plugins

or

/Library/Application Support/Newtek/LightWave2018.0.6/Plugins

In both cases LightWave 3D will automatically pick up the plugins once you launch it.

You are of course free to copy the plugin file to another location and add it manually.

Configure Layout

In Layout, launch the Configure Keys panel to assign generic_qckpck to a key.

We recommend 'q', but you may pick anything else of course. Make sure it is a key that is very easy to reach - and also easy to remember. ;)

(Optional) Add individual commands to the menu

You can add the individual Commands to a menu or to a shortcut.

qckPck 2018 also ships with a menu branch which you can import in the menu editor.
