And second question, i’ve been trying to cross the data between these 2 apps : nuke and houdini. I found the .chan format works differently between them. Anyone has any experience in this area? in houdini ,there’s no such frame number info stored in the .chan file. Also the order it stores the data is different, not tx ty tz, but it’s per point (vertex) that is stored, so let say : tx0 tx1 tx2 ty0 ty1 ty2 … etc. And it doesn’t store rotation info like nuke does. So i marked this : problem with different column interpretation. In these two apps there’s no way i can control the order of the column so both of them can’t really speak same language even using the same .chan file format ??? i’ve spent hours on this with no luck. As final goal i want to send the camera movement between them and if possible ….. more complex task like i want to export 3d surface information from Houdini to Nuke using .chan (yes, i can use other format, but i’m just courious with this .chan thing).
Is there any way around?
thanx

First of all, I did some graphics in photoshop (some sort of flowers) and saved it as a PNG with alpha.
I need to put this on a wall and to reveal the flowers slowly from left to right.
I tried to do it with the paint node by animating a stroke (bigger than the flowers) that affects the alpha channel of the PNG but it doesn’t work since it affects the original alpha, revealing a black background behind the flowers because the stroke is bigger than the graphic itself.
Is there a way to do what I want? I’m sure there is, but I can’t seem to find it!
I also have a problem with the tracker node.
The footage is a side view of a women walking down the street and the camera is following her. I want to track some points on the wall behind her to put my graphics on. Everytime I start the tracking, the point gets lost after a couple frames.
I tried to track a point on the women and it works perfectly, but it doesn’t work on the wall.
I did put my tracking points on bricks corner and stuff like that, but they keep sliding.
I also tried to colorcorrect the footage a little to give it more contrast, thinking it would help tracking but it still doesn’t work.
The footage comes from a Sony HDR-XR550V camera and I desinterlaced the footage.
I hope I made it clear enough. Sorry if it’s not, my english isn’t perfect.
Thanks you so much for your help!
I couldn’t figure this out and am going to use the example below to better describe my question.
When I execute the code below in the script editor, I will get listA = [1, 2, 3] printed and the listA can be referred throughout the current session.
listA = [1,2,3]
print 'listA = ', listA
To integrate the code as a python script, I wrap the code as a function as below:
def testFunc():
listA = [1,2,3]
print 'listA = ', listA
return listA
and modify the menu.py so I can execute the python script upon button-pushing.
As I execute the python script, I did get the listA = [1,2,3] printed in the script editor, but if I try to refer to the listA again by executing, say, print listA, I will get:
# Result: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'listA' is not defined
What I want to achieve is generating a list storing wanted information through the python script so I can refer to over and over again in the same session. Any comment?
Thanks,
Jason
I know in fusion it is as simple as right clicking and attaching the data

I wan to run these programs, may 2-3 at the same time :
Adobe Photoshop
Adobe Illustrator
3d Max
Maya
After effects
Syflex
VRay
Houdini
Realflow
Renderman
Now I should ideally be looking at this beast :
SYX OVERCLOCKABLE I7 GAMING PC
http://www.circuitcity.com/applicati…4&Sku=SYX-1052
But unfortunately I do not have that kind of money. I do not know how much would it cost to custom make that kind of desktop and who can make it for me in cheap cost. Some imputs regarding that would be appreciated too.
I was looking into these desktops lately :
1) HP Factory Refurbished Pavilion Elite HPE-170T Desktop – 8GB DDR3, 750GB HDD, Core i7-860~3.46GHz Quad-Core WIFI
http://cgi.ebay.com/HP-Factory-Refur…pt=Desktop_PCs
2) HP – Factory-Refurbished Pavilion Desktop / Intel® Core™2 Quad Processor / 7GB Memory / 1TB Hard Drive
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/HP+-+Fac…&skuId=1014586
3) Gateway – Desktop / Intel® Core™ i7 Processor / 8GB Memory / 1TB Hard Drive
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Gateway+…&skuId=9974337
4) Lenovo – Ideacentre Desktop / Intel® Core™ i7 Processor / 8GB Memory / 1TB Hard Drive
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Lenovo+-…&skuId=9979887
These are all that I could find … i will add some if i find some later. Please advice me which one would be good within $900 range ( max). Also some advice on the approx. cost and assemblers regarding a specific configuration or for the above SYX OVERCLOCKABLE I7 GAMING PC would be really appreciated. I would be looking for some real helpful feedbacks. Thank you:o
