Please someone explain this.

Hi, i like to add some more new function/feature to an existing Node. Trying to do with gizmo but not quite happy with some refreshing issue so i want to do the other way. I’m thinking to create new class base on existing node. Here my attempt just for testing :
Code:
class newblur(nuke.Node):
def __init__(self):
nuke.Node.__init__(self)
self.x=nuke.Int_Knob('test','test')
self.addKnob(self.x)
a=newblur('Blur')
it creates a Node with no error, but as you can see in my script , i’m trying to add new knob . But there’s no new knob created. Yes, i can use this script to get new knob :
Code:
a=newblur('Blur')
a.addKnob(nuke.Int_Knob('test','test'))
but this is not i prefer. I want to have my new Node class is ready with its new knob as i instantiate it. Since i get no error , it’s hard to find out what’s wrong. Can anyone help me out ? what is missing? any Pythonerzz pls?
thanx

Buggy top view?
Posted in: NUKE from The FoundryI was going to file a bug report but thought I should ask here first if it’s just me.
I have a 3D project and when I go to top view directly or using C, half the time it seems to provide some bizarre perspective camera instead of an ortho top view.
I usually have to quit out and reload the project to restore it to a true top view.
Any one else having this problem?
Thanks.

Hey guys, would this be a good VFX editing computer? mine right now is, in a word, HORRIBLE.
This seems good, only thing that worries me is the video card, its TWO NVIDIA GeForce 9800GT which are good cards, but apparently are gaming cards… which ive heard are counter productive to editing.
Worth it or no?
Ive looked into the 2500 mac pro but its only got 3gb ram

Color Grade Example
Posted in: Beginners TalkHey guys,
I’m constantly trying to improve my color grading skills and I just decided to ask here at vfxtalk…
It would be great to receive some feedback from colorists in the industry to the following Grade …. its only a still frame out of an upcoming shortfilm where I might do the grading on…
What kind of a look would you give such a scene and is there anything you would have done in the secondaries to "relight" the shot and make it even more balanced and interesting ? – would you reduce the saturation even more ?
The goal if to make it as filmlike as possible but not by just crushing the blacks and overtint the shot to green/blue as lots of beginners are doing it :>…
cheers,
yaku

Opacity Node
Posted in: NUKE from The FoundryIs there a node that can control the opacity? Or is there a certain way of controlling the transparency of a constant?
In AE, there is an opacity control, but i can’t seem to find it in Nuke
Thanks in advance for the help

Last 2 % of track
Posted in: Matchmoving SoftwareHey all. I have a shot wich im trying to track but when taking it into maya, putting in some test objects its slipping, its very subtle but enought to tell that the cg isnt matching correctly.
How do u guys do the last 2% of the track to get it supergood?
I have tried various things, thou nothing relly seems to make any difference.
Is it a bad practice to change the keyframes in maya on the pftrack cam? like forbidden or a big nono?
seems like this must be very common? getting a track that is 98% correct but still fails cause of those 2% clearly shows that its sliding.
All hints and tips are very welcome!
Thanks!

I’m wondering if there is a way to take a plate element, project it or map it onto a card and then have that create a reflection and shadows on to another card that is matched to the ground of your BG. I’m assuming this will need a light or some lights but I’m hoping that someone could explain the workflow to achieve this. I don’t know much about lighting and shading in nuke’s 3D space.
Thanks!
