NukeX 3D tracker

I’d like to share a story of joy and happiness with everyone.
My boss just asked me to do a stabilization on 5000+ frames (Times 8 shots) of 2k stereoscopic footage.
to which I responded %@&!.
After gathering up my courage, I managed to do some 2D tracker work that … well frankly I wasn’t happy with. So I said %@&!. Then I decided that I was going to 3D track it in Nuke. So I do the track. I solve the camera. Nuke crashes. I forgot to save: %@&!. I track and solve again. I save. (In versions), I add a card and project my footages from the L&R cameras (Cam1) respectivly onto the card that remains equidistant from the camera/projectors. I make another camera (Cam2) and take samples from Cam1L to make a smooth movement that approximates the original. I save again. It all works. Nuke crashes again. I open the save file. Nuke crashes immediate upon open. %@&!
So I am stuck with one option. get very lucky and hope that nuke doesn’t crash and I can complete my shots in one session. %@&!
Which is a shame. Because apart from the fact that it doesn’t work, the technique seems to hold merit.

Anyone else having similar issues with Nuke’s 3D tracker causing saves to crash upon opening in instances of excessive frame length? OR is it just my lack of RAM?

I’m not looking for a solution or anything.. But a shoulder to cry on might be nice (Sob, sob)

Just for Fun – Nuke 5 UI for NukeX 6

Just for fun this afternoon I sat down a coded the original Nuke 4 UI into a saved preset of NukeX 6.

Everything works (save backdrop node, can’t find the code) and gives you a very clean interface if needed.

Just for your interest,

Matt

edit, Backdrop fixed … nuke.nodes.BackdropNode()

Exporting Point cloud to OBJ

Having a bit of trouble importing a point cloud OBJ in max from Nuke. In the user guild it says to add a write geo node to the point cloud to export an OBJ. but max is saying nothing is found to import. Am I miss a step somewhere?

Camera position in World Space

I have a camera that I offsetin space by connecting it to an axis node.

Is there a way to obtain the position in world space of the offset camera? Because I would like just to have the one camera that has the world space position baked in.

Thanks in advance!

Keying Problem

Hey.

I have some keying stuff to do, and I have this strange Bluescreen here. When I saw it I was like "no problem", but somehow no IBK and no Keylight give me really good results. Before I end up rotoing, maybe you have an idea how to get good results from this one? Maybe my settings for the IBK or Keylight are not the best, though I am very familiar with it and in the past I had much more worse bluescreens to deal with where the IBK/Keylight worked.

I attached a sample exr. Maybe you have an idea 🙂

Thx!
