Correct Setup Cam Projection

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
Hello everybody,

I have a question about camprojection with nuke. I have a 3D model of an city, now I exported every building as an obj seperately and projected on every a texture from an psd file, then put every projectnode seperately in a scene then a rendernode, then merged them everytime with an over together. My question now is how do I get the Z-Depth from the whole city? Is there another way to merge all the files in one scene and lay them one over another, or does every projection need their own rendernode?

cheers

My problem is that the pan is not a very smooth motion, what would be the best way of smoothing the shot out?

Thanks,

Nuke renders to BackBurner from Mac OSX

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
hey all

OK understanding that there is no Mac OSX version of BackBurner (BB) first and for most.

Also not wanting to use VNC to a PC or RDC to a PC

Does anyone have any suggestion as to how, from with in Nuke (on Mac OSX) a render could be submitted to BB.

Some thoughts we have had would be some thing like a watch folder or some thing sent to a browser that triggers a *.bat file (security issues??)

Any thoughts or suggested approaches are welcomed

export 3D stuffs from Nuke to Maya?

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
Hey,

If I have a 3D system built in Nuke including cards, geometries with mapped textures, lights, and cameras, is there a way to export the built whole 3D scene and bring them into Maya?
I searched in the forum, but all related threads I found are discussing the opposite direction which is going from Maya to Nuke through FBX if after Nuke 5.1 or other custom scripts……

Any idea?

How do i add the CCD video noise / mimic a compression effect to cg to match the footage in nuke.

Problem with node creation with python

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
I have a python script that I have made to create multiple proxy settings in nuke

One of them is that for every read nodes in a script, it creates a reformat under it, change the reformat label to proxy (so that i an easily flag them and remove them) and change the path from network location to local location

Heres the problem, if I already have some nodes connected to the read (ex: Blur), the blur will connect to the last created reformat nodes. I tried pretty much everything.

Heres a quick video that show what happen : http://files.getdropbox.com/u/1071227/nuke_proxy.mov

Here’s the part of the script that does it:

HTML Code:

for node in nuke.allNodes():
            if node.Class() == 'Read':
                        source = node.knob('file').value()
                        dest = source.replace('/Volumes/PROD/VFX/PROJETS/','/SHAKE_PROXY/')
                        node.knob('selected').setValue(True)
                        a = nuke.createNode("Reformat")
                        a.knob('label').setValue('PROXY')
                        a.setInput(0,node)
                        node.knob('selected').setValue(False)
