06/22/2010

Hi!

So, i created this 3DS Max file with this Boujou thing,and i want to import that file to 3ds max with the run script. but everytime i want to import it,an error popups sayin: Syntax Error
Please help me.

thx.

12/02/2010

If anyone is having problems importing into 3ds Max...here is the fix I used. After you have exported your Boujou 5 tracking data to a 3ds Max file, open up 3ds Max 2010, go to MAXscript, open the script and then delete this:

b=openBitMap("D:/Projects/THE METEOR/RENDERS/Crater Raw Seq/Crater Raw_.ifl")
b.numframes = 171
setAsBackground b
setBkgImageAnimate true
setBkgImageAspect #output
setBkgFrameRange [0, 171, 1]
setBkgStartTime 0
setBkgSyncFrame 0

setRendApertureWidth 14.7574
renderHeight = 720
renderwidth = 1280
renderPixelAspect = 1.00004
frameRate = 24

animationrange = interval 0 171

SAVE the file and then open up MAXScript again and then RUN script. All done.
Works for me anyways.

06/11/2010

Thanks to "Tomek" with the solution on my problem :D

06/08/2010

thank a lot andrew

05/12/2010

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm
you are great Andrew kramer
superb
coooooooooooooooooool

thanks for this tutorial

04/24/2010

is there any one on this planet better than you
I DON'T THINK SO

03/20/2010

This what 2010 do not run in 3d max importing given about the camera *.ms
let will delete this the part from the file *.ms
***
filename = "U:/boujou/images/ludzik_.ifl")
if ( doesfileexist filename ) then
(
bitmap = openBitMap( filename )
bitmap.numframes = 240
setAsBackground bitmap
setBkgImageAnimate true
setBkgImageAspect #output
setBkgFrameRange [320, 560, 1]
setBkgStartTime 2
setBkgSyncFrame 320
)

setRendApertureWidth 20.12
renderHeight = 576
renderwidth = 720
renderPixelAspect = 1.06667
frameRate = 25

animationrange = interval 1 241
***
and he should run, he works at me.
Ps.
This is very simple solution of this, he should somewhere be better in the net.
I greet.

Hey Andrew,

I'm having a problem in 3ds Max. I'm using the 2010 version though on demo. When I go to to load the Viewport background, all that shows up for the Camera 1 viewport is a white background.
I follow your steps exactly, and I've tried it many times, but it's still a white background that shows up, and not the image sequence.
Can you please help me Andrew?
I love your tutorials by the way. Thank you so much for making them, and letting them be available to watch for FREE.

Thanks,

Henry

Hi Andrew. I am from China.Thanks a lot for your hard work. I have learned a lot from your website.But there is a problem here. I cannot open any of your turtorial movies and project downloads after you re-designed your website this August. Well, I can still watch the video presentations of your products. I tried on several computers, it seems not work. I wonder wether you have met the same problem from other people? Best.

10/14/2008

@E Lancelot, try: http://www.pfhoe.com/hoepro.htm but if you're really cheap you could try the free Voodoo Camera Tracker: http://www.digilab.uni-hannover.de/docs/manual.html

10/13/2008

You are to be declared as the "FATHER OF COMPOSITOR".......I had never seen such a cool dude having such a sharing mentality........you are great Andrew Kramer..........There will be no such person having a deep knowledge about the principles of compositing and the most wonderful thing about him is the mixing of colors..........

10/13/2008

I looked up boujou, and it seems to be rather pricey.

What less pricey 3D trackers can you hook me up with?

As far as where to find it?

10/12/2008

Kramer is the """FXMAN""". No doubts about that !

10/12/2008

Well all I need is the air I breathe
And a place to rest my head

10/12/2008
