SoftWish Installation Overview
SoftWish installs the base Tcl/Tk language as a separate product so that it can be used
(without the SoftWish extensions) without using up a Softimage license.
The SoftWish extension files are copied from the CD into the Softimage directory. The
following table shows what goes where. Note that only one subdirectory is copied to SI_LOCATION/3d/custom/bin:
the irix subdirectory is copied on SGI machines, the winnt/alpha subdirectory on alpha
machines and the winnt/i386 subdirectory on Intel machines.

In the above table note that:
- platform can be Irix/4400, winnt/alpha or winnt/intel
- Either SoftWishDeveloper or SoftWishRuntime gets installed, so only one SoftWish and
Softtclsh shareable library gets installed.
.softwishrc is the systemwide SoftWish
initialization file. It is located in Softimage's \3D\custom\SoftWish\Scripts
subdirectory. This file can be modified so as to allow for local (i.e. per user)
customization .
SoftWish installs for interactive use in all of Soft's modules by copying:
..\softwish\model\softwish.cus into SI_LOCATION\3D\custom\model. SoftWish will
appear in the MODEL DISPLAY menu.
..\softwish\motion\softwish.cus into SI_LOCATION\3D\custom\motion. SoftWish will
appear in the MOTION DISPLAY menu.
..\softwish\actor\softwish.cus into SI_LOCATION\3D\custom\actor. SoftWish will
appear in the ACTOR DISPLAY menu.
..\softwish\matter\softwish.cus into SI_LOCATION\3D\custom\matter. SoftWish will
appear in the MATTER DISPLAY menu.
..\softwish\tools\softwish.cus into SI_LOCATION\3D\custom\tools. SoftWish will
appear in the TOOLS VIEWER menu.
