createNode then deleteNode

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
so below is my script. It works but only by assuming that the ReadGeo created by the script is named "ReadGeo1". Most of the time that works fine but you can see where it has a potential for undesired results. What I want it to do is create it, get the info it needs from it, then delete it; or maybe it doesn’t need to create it at all and there is a way to just get the info I need.
Any thoughts?

FYI: This is a small part of a much bigger script so if it seems pointless, that’s why

Code:

def warningPrompt():
    p = nuke.Panel("Warning")
    p.addMultilineTextInput('warning', "This can take several minutes. It is strongly recomended that you start from an empty nuke scrpit.")
    p.addButton("Cancel")
    p.addButton("Continue")
    if p.show():
        print 'ok'

        MyFBX = nuke.getFilename( 'select your FBX' , '*.fbx' )
       

######## The problem Starts Here ########

        nuke.createNode('ReadGeo2', 'file %s' % MyFBX)

        getRange = (nuke.toNode('ReadGeo1').knob('fbx_node_name').numValues()+1)
        nukescripts.node_delete()
        print getRange

warningPrompt()

Lo res 3D Setup

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
Hi, I am a new user and have been comping a shot with a lot of crowds and a 3d FBX cam exported from a tracking software. I can’t figure out why my footage placed on cards in the scene look low res when I am working but render fine with a write node. Tried switching from proxy mode, all aliasing is fine, the project is HD size-Can anybody give me the heads up on this?

Nuke Media files don’t work

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
Using the new Nuke PLE edition I just downloaded, I can’t get any of the tutorial files from the foundry to work inside the program. I’ve downloaded the package twice and I can see everything intact inside the node graph but the image file boxes are black, read as ‘ERROR" and I get a notification saying the no such file exists.

This is really annoying because it’s doing it with all the tutorials I have downloaded so far…Basic Workflows, General UI, Production Workflows…

Anyone else getting the same problem? I’ve wasted the whole afternoon downloading, uninstalling and reinstalling programs.:(

Nuke saves log DPX as lin

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
Hi everyone 🙂

I have log dpx sequence. Nuke shows colorspace default(cineon) in read node and write node. I expected to get log files after rendering but I see that they are 10bit linear. Where are only read and write nodes in project. What I’m doing wrong?

F_wireRemoval is slow setting keyframes

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
I’m trying to remove a wire from an actor that’s climbing around a set. His back is turned and the wire attaches to his lower back. My main problem is working with the F_wireRemoval is painfully slow. I grab a point to move and it takes 3-5 seconds to process. The fed-in footage is pre-rendered so it only needs to calculate two nodes, I doubt it’s the Read node that’s slowing the computer.

I tried the auto track but doesn’t work since the wire is fairly similar color to the bg and actor’s clothes. Has anyone else worked with F_wireRemoval have this problem and/or any tips to quicken the workflow? Thanks.

How to Subtract Channels in Nuke ?

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
Hi, new in Nuke Here…

I’m trying to subtract the RGBA of an image to another and not know how, this is the script I’ve done in Nuke, but the function "minus"from the Merge node does not work as I with, because when you put a background of the same color the teapot stays the persistent color, in the motionblut gradiant.

I have a foreground with a teapot and a background all in the same picture and have the background alone, and want to remove this background from the picture with the teapot and the background together.

Please help, in the attachment is my scene in nuke. Thanks in advance
