Basic Setup with Cards / CameraTracker / Greenscreen Windows

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
Hi,

I’m an After Effects user trying to switch to Nuke. I searched the forums but didn’t really find what I’m looking for. I guess I just need a kick in the right direction.

Here’s what I got:

I got a handcamera shot which I already tracked successfully in NukeX. This shot is a studio setup with windows in the background that have a greenscreen outside. So what I’m trying to do now, is to put my shot onto a card, then key out the windows and put another card with a skyline far away in the 3D space.

I’m stuck with how to put my handcamera shot on a card. Shouldn’t this card have the animation of the tracking on it, so that I can put my static skyline in the background and the camera "going into the room with the window"?

I’m pretty sure that there is a tutorial out there with just that topic – I know that this is some pretty basic stuff. But…I’m lost here… 😈

Anyone can help?

Particular hangs NukeX

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
Hello everyone!

I have a really annoying problem with Particular 2.1.2 and Nuke 6.2v2.
Particular crashes really often when I do changes in the settings and sometimes it fills the viewer with a solid red colour. Anyone that has experienced something like this? It’s the demo version of Particular.

I get this error message in the console when I open up the Particular node, Nuke still operates, but this message is repeated every time I open the node.
"Warning: EndTabGroup with no matching BeginTabGroup."

I have re-installed Particular and Nuke, but it seems that nothing helps.

Cheers

“nothing is named parent”

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
Hello

I have a simple question.
Everytime I link a roto to a track, I get this message when I reopen my setup:

p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; } Roto1.curves: Nothing is named "parent"

Therefore, when I click on my roto, everything works great. The link is here and work fine. So why do I have this message?

I must say that I always link the folder of my rotoshape to my tracker…

If you have any idea?
Thanks

problem with addOnScriptSave

Posted in: NUKE from The Foundry
hey guys,
i have this few lines of code to copy a script to another location after it’s saved.

Code:

import nuke
import shutil

def myfunction():

      currScript = nuke.Root()['name'].value()
       
      backupPath = 'path/to/backup/folder/'

      shutil.copy(currScript, backupPath)

this is the entry in my menu.py

Code:

import myfunction
nuke.addOnScriptSave(myscript.myfunction)

when i overwrite a script that already exists, this works like expected.
but when i try to save the script as a new script, i get an error message. this file doesn’t exist. so nothing is saved and nothing is copied.
i understand that ‘addOnScriptSave’ is executed before the script is saved. so this is an expected error.
i tried ‘nuke.scriptSave()’ before ‘shutil.copy(currScript, backupPath)’, but this gives me another error message: ‘maximum recursion depth exeeded‘.
would be great, if someone can point me to how i get the script saved before the copy command is executed!

thanks a lot,
d
