Hi all,

I've not used A:M for quite some time. I'm sure back then I could add a camera rotoscope and it would render as a backdrop to my scene. I've added the rotoscope, it's visible in camera view, but when I render it ain't there. I can't see any setting that's killing it.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

In a simple test, it seemed to work for me. I'd need to know more about your project.

 

Try this.

Load this PRJ and render it and post the result.

RotoTest01.zip

Use the Render Preset that is included. You load it ("Load a Preset") in the render panel.


Welcome back!

Hey Rob,

Thanks very much for coming back to me so quickly and helpfully. I ran your test and the rotoscope rendered fine, so obviously I'm doing something stoopid. It's amazing how much I've forgotten about A:M.

I'm seeing quite a few issues that look like screen driver problems (I'm running a GeForce RTX 2070, fully updated), like the display jumping to a previous state when I drag a lasso, then reverting when I release, and I thought maybe the rotoscope failure was a similar issue. Clearly it ain't, it's just me not doing it right.

I'll be fine now I'm sure!

Thanks again, your help is much appreciated.

What file format is your rotoscope? Try substituting it into the sample PRJ and see if it still works.

in Tools>Options>Global try switching the "Real time Driver" to the other choice and restart A:M

That has certainly stopped it jumping back to the previous state when I lasso. I was trying various settings in the OpenGL tab without any success.

Thanks again - you are a hero!
