Re: Motion Vector output artifacts. Help!!!

[Votch <megavotch(at)gmail.com>]

using a point cache (MDD or PC2) doesn't fix the problem. My animation pipeline is based around pointcache.

You can maybe try to export and reload your animation with point oven or KpPointcache.

I also came across this. Seems to be some kind of inter-frame interpolation of vertex movement. I think I fixed it with plotting the entire deformations into shapes. With a keyframe on every or every 2nd frame.

 

cheers,

Subject: Motion Vector output artifacts. Help!!!

Hi peeps.

I'm outputting motion vectors using the standard (built in) mental ray 'motion' framebuffer output to use in Reelsmart motion blur, and have hit a problem I can't seem to resolve. I'm getting strange artifacts on both the rendered image and the motion vector (tiff, 16bit) output. I've attatched an image to show the artifacts.

Using 32bit 6.01 (on XP64), model is envelope, some shape animation, modelling frozen, simple SRT on the model root. Has anyone else come across this?
