Displacement in nuke?

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
Hi, does anyone knows if there is a displacement node in nuke compositing? Like I can plug in a black and white Image and displace a Background plate? Commonly used to displace shockwave or explosion effects. Thanks!

.edl files and nuke

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
Hi people,

I’m a new Nuke user and I would like to know if there is a mean for importing .edl file in it.
I’ve already try the "Import Sequence" in the Read node but I get this error "syntax error in expression "AX + C": variable references require preceding $".

Thanx.

Color grade render issue

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
Hey everyone-

New to the board here and I have a weird issue with rendering files out. Everything is pretty straight forward. I have my footage, a reformat node, a grade node and then a color correct node.

No matter what I have tried the footage is coming out looking a lot darker than it should. It actually looks completely unchanged…Any thoughts? I think I am missing something here.

unifying path to files on different OS

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
Hi guys, I’m new to Nuke, my studio is in the process of switching from Digital Fusion to Nuke as a main comp app as we speak. One of the first problems I have stumbled upon is the path to graphic files. We have 3 different environments for Nuke

– Windows XP for 50% of the job, running alongside other programs for 3d trackig etc
– Linux for some hardcore high def comp jobs, Nuke on linux works smother and faster, can digest more ram

– on Mac, since we use FinalCutPro in our workflow we got few Macs I want to run Nuke on.

All 3 Operating Systems got diferent path to our file server. Is there a way to work in some kind of filepath relative to your project directory tree instead of full absolute path.
It was working great in Fusion, but I have no idea how to achive it in Nuke

Thanks in advance
