Hasta La Motion!

So i wanted to get a Z buffer into a map, by using a ChannelBoolean and moving the Zbuffer over to a blank plate. The problem is that the depth buffer is not normalized and impossible to work with unless you scale up the work to something gigantic.

ie:

(Top; Original Depth Buffer. Buttom; Attempt to "normalize" the depth buffer)
(Note that the white plate is just placed there to show that there infact is a darker area somewhere in the distance.)

Is there a way to control this, or a way to get a proper depth map in Fusion?

2- I would like to know if particles are available in 2d comp,I made a node Merge2d + pRender and pEmitter with my image and pRender is black, I don’t see effect on my viewer,I seing it only with Merge3d.

thanks for all

NB: Before this post I’d search tutorials about particles but I don’t find good things about that .

I’m using an intel Macbook Pro with OSX 10.4.11

Simply, I am trying to run a render only license of Nuke from a Mac Terminal (Bash Shell) and it will not run. It is a non GUI Nuke license purely for running scripts and commands. It is not for compositing.

I always get the error "-bash: nuke: command not found"

At the prompt I have tried:
1) nuke THEN GET "-bash: nuke: command not found"
2) Nuke THEN GET "-bash: Nuke: command not found"
3) nuke5.1v3 THEN GET "-bash: nuke5.1v3: command not found"
4) Nuke5.1v3 THEN GET "-bash: Nuke5.1v3: command not found"

If I type Shake at the command line….I can boot Shake?

In saying that I am not expecting to see the Nuke interface, I am expecting it to execute the command(s) I place after, as you would if you were to run Shake [command1][command2] etc

Any thoughts or suggestions?
