too many open files
Posted in: NUKE from The FoundryHi all,
I’m currently using nuke 5.1v6 for a project but its been crashing on me pretty often.
yet i can’t upgrade to a higher version as the renderfarm and plugins have been written for the 5.1v6
Sometimes when the file attempts to make a save, a popup prompts
too many file open, unable to save D://randomfilename.autosavet.nk
when i click ok it closes nuke
I’ve since disabled the autosave and force autosave.
I read somewhere that there was a bug fix from V4.7
We now configure open file limit to 1024 to prevent "too many open files"
errors.
Is there anyway i can do this configuration in some ini file myself?
I’ve already done alot of precomping and deleting nodes from the long+huge tree that aren’t useful but its still giving me this toomanyopenfiles problems.
:bomb:

Posted in: NUKE from The FoundryHad some spare time today while waiting for renders so decided to make a Nuke mosaic script and panel… (a la the Mona Lisa one that someone posted a while ago)
The functionality ("build" function) is commented heavily…

Ok, So i wanted to get everyones feed back on how they recreate shadows and reflections for people shot on a greenscreen and are running AWAY from the camera.
Since there feet or moving away in z space you cant just take their mattes, flip and skew them, and call it a day. I usually end up rotoing their legs individually and key framing each leg separately so they always have contact when the real foot hits the floor.
what do you guys do? there has to be a more accurate way then how I am doing it. Thanks in advance.

360° shot title compositing
Posted in: NUKE from The Foundryhey guys
gotta be honest, so far I only used nuke to do greenscreen compositing and wire removals so far…
now I was asked to help out a on a mate’s short for the title sequence.
the sequence is a 360° shot of a living room made with a spider dolly. he wants to have the titles composited to stuff in the room, like the walls, furniture, etc.
I was thinking on doing that in nuke since it doesnt really work out in after effects because of the distortion from the wide angle lens. but now I kinda realized I have no idea how to do that in nuke, haha… so, anyone care for a lil start up help? would be greatly appreciated! 🙂
cheers!

hey guys,
i´ve got a HP elitebook with
Intel Core 2 Quad-Core Q9000 4x 2.00GHz,
4 gig of Ram (memtest:OK),
Nvidia Quadro fx 2700 M,
fujitsu hardrive 7200r(test OK),
OS: Win7 64bit
nuke 6.x.x
so, these values are a lot better than my old desktop, but the nuke 6 interface is much worse than before!! it´s running soo slow that it´s no more fun. modifying bezier-handlepoints in the viewer, painting with rotopaint or sometimes even moving nodes in the script. nearly always there is a heavy delay. does´t matter if it´s 2k dpx, exr or Pal and the scipt is only 10 nodes large 🙁
the guys from HP are not really helpfull.
has anyone of you a comparable configuration of notebook that is running fine with nuke? or is there a known issue with one of these components?
thanks a lot…!!

TV Screen Effect Gizmo
Posted in: NUKE from The FoundryHey
I’ve been working on a CRT TV screen filter gizmo in my spare time for a while now. I just started a new show that will put it to the test and I wanted to throw it out there to get some ideas before I commit it to production.
I know that at one point every compositor has had to make this effect, and I know there are about a zillion ways to achieve it. So I’m looking for all the creative additions / methods / efficiency tweaks I can find… at very least maybe some of you will get use out of it, and maybe together we can make it much better.
I call it fizzle. Let me know your thoughts.
