Update on sound- still no sound in spite of installing v18. System sound still working fine everywhere else.
-
Robcat you had noticed that environment maps were only using the top half of the image (when you helped me with env. maps a while back)
Was there any resolution to that problem? Now I'm running into it.
-
Unfortunately, it's not an "assigned" problem yet.

You can install v18 and use that for now.
after you install it, copy your master0.lic file from v19 to v18
Also try your sound problem on that.

They have an ftp site where old versions can be found.
ftp://ftp.hash.com/pub/updates/windows/
With your subscription license you can run versions 15 and later.

Windows 7, AM v.19Oi. System sound working fine. Import sound "cartoonhammer" from AM disc, dragged onto action, dragged onto chor but no sound plays. System sound is working. Right clicking on sound file and Play but no sound. What am I doing wrong???

Sorry, did you send me a sample prj? If so then I somehow missed it so please send it again and I'll try it.
thanks
Found the TransparencyAction.prj - says its unavailable.
-
I know it's there, i just re-downloaded it.
I've sent a PM to Jason to ask if there is anything weird about your accounts permissions. Something must be mis set to keep you from replying or down loading attachments.
In the mean time... can you see it here?: -

Stop the presses! Now the transp. in Action works.
v.Oi Action now shows the transp. channels listed with the bone channels in the tree and it's working! Whereas before only the animated bone channels were listed. (even after turning "list all" icon on.)
Thanks again robcat, if it weren't for you guys still there I'd have been forced to give up on A.M. a long time ago.
Here's a pic from my project (if I haven't sent this already)

Many thanks. So you just assigned surface properties instead of making a material assigned to a group. OK but you had the same result. So I'm NOT hallucinating again (tho oft times I miss them).
Let me know if there is any update in the future on this please. At eas602@sbcglobal.net and thanks so much for your time helping me on this. Till then I guess I'll just keep the Action window open.

Robcat. installed v.Oi as suggested. No difference. Created animated transp. channels in Action for the Group. Closed Action. Reopened same action - no channels. (made sure groups are listed in the tree)
Double checked to see that I'm running v.Oi - yes.
Would like to send the Action file but it won't save the channels.
What am I doing wrong????

Hey. back again with the Action/transparency thing. I thought that maybe my chor. was messed up so I made a new prj from scratch and was able to duplicate the problem.
Made 2 spheres, making each one a group, assigned a material to each, Opened an Action with them and proceeded to animate the transparency levels - all works fine, the 2 spheres alternate on and off (see attached Action screen shot)
Close the Action window and when I reopened it everything was there except the animated channels.
The prj file attached is after said channels vanished into the night. I'm using v.19oh. Are you using same? If you're able to do this but I'm not then I must be doing something different.
Thanks for your help robcat. Let me know when you get a chance.

robcat thanks for the response. I go thru this every time using the forum. I'm looking at your response and NOWHERE do I see a button that says "respond" so I'm writing this directly to your link.
As for the Action transparency issue. I was doing exactly what you were suggesting. Created groups, assigned material to those groups and then made keyframes in Action animating the levels of transp. (making lights blink on and off) EXACTLY as you described and when I bring it into the chor. - NO animated transp. Upon re-opening the Action file the transp. animation channels are all GONE. I would send the prj file but it's massive with 5 characters and a shitload of props and images used throughout.
I'll try to repeat the problem with a simplified project file and send it along to the forum.
thanks

Thanks again robcat you always come to my rescue.
-
Yes it's between the show rulers and snap bias to grid buttons on the toolbar at the top towards the right end.
-
Is there an updated manual somewhere? Constantly running across little things in the toolbars/interface like "respect z order" on the toolbar and other things I can't find in the manual that I downloaded with v19oh. Would like to know how to use these things. Any help appreciated.
-
Got a character constrained to a path-when it reaches the end of the path I want to have it sit down but when I add keyframes it makes a keyframe at frame 1 of the chor. - wiping out all the previous animation for that joint. I know chor. animations take priority over actions but isn't there a way to BLEND the two?? Thanks in advance.
-
Thought something didn't look right. If I wanted to use v19g - where do I find that? And as always thanks for answering robcat.
-
Got it. Thanks. I was moving the object laterally and not seeing any movement but once rotated like yours it became apparent. Much obliged.
-
OK OK I should know how to do this by now and I've done it in the past but now can't get environment maps to work - they're sticking like decals. AM v19oh on Windows OS7 New material - attribute/plugins/hash/environment maps and Global axis is ON and the object is moving around in Chor. but environment map is sticking like decal. Any help appreciated.
-
Is it just me? Where on this page do I respond to people's replies?
-
Also you can email me at eas602@sbcglobal.net as I'm having trouble using the forum.

robcat thanks for responding to my post on the forum re Channels disappearing. Could not figure out how to respond to your message on the forum - not respond button. such an idiot am I.
anyways I can't reproduce the problem deliberately yet it keeps happening and oddly not to the model I'm trying to edit in the Action or Model window. It picks on some other Model in the chor. I'll try again and do some screen grabs to send.
thanks again

Yes I just installed it over the current and it didn't ask for serial so I'll try that (waiting til it expires and try again and delete the master0.lic file) Thank you!

Just purchased update subscription, installed it and it still tells me that AM expires in a few days. Just spent 80. bucks. Emailed from AM's support page-no response - Sent email from receipt email - also no response. Nobody seems to be at home at AM - no phone number to call. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

robcat since it always seems to be you that rescues me I thought I'd ask you a question directly. I'm trying to import any kind of video into AM for a rotoscoping project and having no luck. I'm using Anyvideo converter and several others trying to find a format that can be imported into AM using the imag/seq function and NOTHING is working. Do you have any experience with this kind of thing? Any help would be appreciated beyond measure. (a paycheck hangs in the balance for me on this one) and sorry to be such a pest.
thanks
Going in circles here cant even figure out how to respond. Sorry. Can you point me to that video again? Not sure if this is getting to you.

Trying to composite sequences into scenes and can't get anything to work. Elements (rendered frames) are totally unresponsive. Am trying to layer clips and have one clip start at a certain frame. It shows on the layers timeline(the one next to the project tree) correctly but wont start with the frames specified in the Chor Range settings. The layers are compositing ok but cant control the TIMING. Anyone have any experience with this at all? Any help would be appreciated greatly. thanks

thanks for responding. The last version disk i have is the yeti label version(12 or so?) and it won't run on Windows anymore because windows can't use the disc as a key for whutever fricking reason. How do I get a 32 bit version? do I have to buy it?
I was able to open the avi file in photoshop and output frames as tga and they seem to work but I would still like to know how to get a 32 bit version installed.
thanks for your help rob

The disc versions were all 32-bit. There is a work-around for the Windows problem on the forum somewhere.
But A:M is now released in 64-bit, 32-bit and Mac
If you already have a current sub, you can just download the 32-bit installer and run it. You are on a current sub, right? Here...
https://forums.hash.com/topic/48860-v190g/
However, I just tried using it and it crashes on my machine. I'll put in a bug report.
If you need 32-bit now, try the v18 version , found on the ftp site...
