RE: 15fps to 25fps fxtree problem

["Luc-Eric Rousseau" <lucer(at)Softimage.COM>]

I don't think this problem occurs in V5.0, are you running XSI 4.2 perhaps?

In anycase I guess I don't have a work-around I can suggest, except scaling the fxtree's animation with the dopesheet region.

well there is in fact a lot of animation in the trees, in some more, in others less…..

 

and the 3d scene is already seperated from the composting scene……

Very strange.  I'm guessing there isn't much animation in the fxtree?  If so for now just split the scene in two scenes that have only the 3D and only the Fxtree , change the timing on the 3D scene and remerge the fxtree back it back together (File|Merge)

hi all.

 

i have a little problem here in fxtree…maybe someone has an idea…..

 

we are doing a lot of characters (around 50) at the moment, all were animated in 15fps (as the client wished).

so far so good…..

 

now the client wants them in 25fps (great)…and they have to match with the sounds that are already finished, aswell (even better).

 

changing the animations and everything is no problem….

 

but then comes compositing.

 

here’s what I do:

 

I open the fxtree, go to playback options, change to “…in frames” and switch to 15fps, then I change back to “…in seconds” and switch to 25fps again…..

 

all my animations are stretched correctly (wonderful), BUT all my color corrections are screwed (and I have a lot of them)… all the graphs inside are scaled too….

which gives very shitty results.

 

so, has anyone got a clue how to stretch my fxtree to the new length without the graphs to go beyond the value 1???????

 

 

thanks a lot…..
