Re: [Nuke-users] Adobe anyone?

Not that it matters but it is being developed for Mac and Linux.

I would think it might be in the interest of the big shops to form an LLC/Partnership/something To buy the foundry.Also I would imagine that last thing Autodesk wants is the power of Adobe development numbers put into Nuke or Modo.

I think there's a lot of work to be done leveraging all of that tech across the various apps, and a company like Adobe could put enough resources to make it happen where I think the Foundry has had enough to pull the raw ingredients together and pry these apps out of the studios and out into the open - but to properly merge them anytime soon, and mass market them correctly to maximize sales and cross pollination, takes possibly more muscle than they have. Not to say that they couldn't get there but Adobe stepping in would kick everything into overdrive. Modo makes a TON of sense for them to finally enter the 3d market with, since it's got it's hooks firmly planted in the design world. Nuke (and Mari) would make a great base for a Photoshop rewrite. A non destructive, truly float capable Photoshop that still maintains interactivity? Wow. We've all known dating back to Shake that this is a much better way to work, but I imagine any attempt that Apple or anyone else has ever made at a Photoshop killer was probably met with lots of patent litigation. Lots more could be done with Katana. Anyone that worked at Sony knows it's gold. Would be cool to see it pushed up the priority list or further integrated with Nuke. I imagine the real prize for Adobe is Modo, but I'd hope nothing happens to the purity of Nuke and that they wouldn't strip it for tech and then leave it for dead, like Avid/Apple/etc. I had thought the future of Nuke was relatively safe but I suppose nothing is ever a sure thing.

Neil, did we meet at that Houdini thing in London a few weeks ago ? I was babbling about Gravity stuff. Re:Mantra, I was planning on releasing it, but It's very different from something like AtomKraft. Its more like a poor-mans Katana and a scene builder for Mantra, in Nuke. You can construct basic scenes using delayed load files, create lights, attach shaders and setup animation. It will then generate Mantra scene-description files based on your Nuke tree and create .IFD files for Mantra to render. Mantra will render in the background and feed the images back to nuke. No nuke textures or nuke geo yet as I'm not sharing my memory or doing anything fancy really. And this is why I stopped. As far as I know, I'm also bypassing the need to spend a mantra token and the renderer is free. Not sure it would be useful for anyone at this stage, and I do most of my rendering in Houdini anyway, but I'd be happy to release it if someone wants to continue to dev it.

Thanks Frank! Will give it a shot. Is there a way so that I can isolate a pixel that has the same value in the R G and B Channel values. Eg. I have some bad pixels with values such as 0.5,0.5,0.5 0.765,0.765,0.7650.32,0.32,0.32 etc Their neighbour pixels would always have different R G and B values. Usually lower because the bad pixels are always brighter than their neighbours. I'll try to post an image later. Dave On Wed, Jul 24, 2013 at 12:42 PM, Frank Rueter fr...@beingfrank.infowrote: in that case just use something like r13, g13, b13 to check every channel against a threshold or to check the average instead: (r+g+b)/313 etc. If you don't like the expression node you can also use Clamp, set the minimum and maximum to whatever threshold and turn on minClampTo and maxClampTo to map the clamped values to black and white.

Hi all,
as we are rebuilding Nukepedia I thought it's a good time to add some more
random tips to show on the homepage, so I thought I'd ask for input from
all of you.
The random tips collection will show a slide show that cycles through a
collection of random little tips and tricks at the top of the home page.
Kinda like before except it will be animated (before it required a page
reload to show a new tip).
If anybody has a cool little tip that can be described in a short
sentence, pleas reply to this thread and I will add it to the collection
for the new Nukepedia.
We already have the following:
- holding ctrl and click+dragging to the left of a digit in a number
field will turn on the virtual slider for that decimal position
- hover the mouse pointer over any knob to see it's tooltip help
- use the number pad to nudge any selected OSC (on screen control).
The modifier keys effect the increments.
- shift+number key on a selected node will load the respective buffer
into the wipe mode to compare it to the currently viewed buffer
- sign up to the official mailing lists through Nuke's help menu
- holding shift while click+dragging a connected arrow head or tail
will copy the respective pipe to create another connection
- holding ctrl/cmd+shift when dropping a node on top of another will
swap their positions and connections in the tree
- page up and page down keys cycle through your available layers in
the viewer
- $gui in expressions will return 1 in the UI and 0 at render time.
Great for enabling nodes only when rendering on the farm (use it in the
disable knob or Switch node).
- Middle clicking a icon of a node toolbar recalls the last node/tool
used from that menu.
- Use Alt+W to draw a ROI in the viewer.
- When working with floating viewers you can use Ctrl+R or Command+R
to have the viewer window resized to fit it's contents.
- Ctrl+Click (LMB) on a tab will detach it from a panel.
- Quick tap the space bar to maximize a pane and hold it a bit longer
to open the right-click menu.
- Use Shift+{ and Shift+} to hide/show the top and bottom toolbars of
a Viewer.
- You can toggle full screen for most floating panels in Nuke by using
Alt+S.
- Use MMB+Drag in the Viewer's timeline to focus a certain region,
Alt+LMB+Drag to pan it and MMB+Click to frame the entire range.
- When working with the Properties Bin you can use Ctrl+Double Click
on a node to open it as a float window
- You can scroll the Properties Bin by Alt+Clicking dragging labels
of nodes
- You can use Ctrl+T to cycle between panels of a pane.
Cheers,
frank

If used correctly you can probably even keep your CGI passes energy conserving to some extend (apart from minor shader mismatches like snell vs complex fresnel implementations etc. i guess) and I could see it very handy with Packshot stuff. Just out of curiosity - since all the stuff that Escher does seems to be framebuffer based, is it possible to integrate it into a deep compositing pipeline? If so, it could potentially even become a very handy tool for faking volumetric color bleeding within eg. a generated volume noise...since as far as i understand it a deep depth pass basically resmbles a voxel container with a set z-step-size.

As we expected, we had problems with jello effect in the footage, but it seems there was something wrong with the UAV telemetry and it overcompensated with the gain thrusters and we got a serious amount of macro vibration, ie. the footage is really badly warping a jello-ing. I took a 15-day trial of RollingShutter for NukeX, but I'm not sure if it's capable of dealing with this sort of jello, as it's technically not rolling shutter per se. Any suggestions on what I could try? Also, to be more specific: -should I undistort the footage before applying RollingShutter? -any experience with using Nuke to counter jello? -any experiences with using GoPro footage? -would RollingShutter work better if the footage was rotated 90 degrees, because the jello effect works up-down, not sideways like regular rolling shutter?

The 4 options next to falloff are often unsatisfactory for what I need. Therefore, I often add a blur node underneath the Roto. Then I have many many roto nodes with blurs and channel merges rather than one nice tidy Roto node. I was wondering if there was a way with either Python or gizmo'ing a way to have the way a Blur node works, as an option of feathering like smoothing. Or if it needs to be it's own separate thing. I was theorizing a way to attach a blur node per created shape but not sure if the Roto node is breakable enough. I can't be the only one that is annoyed by this. ___ Nuke-users mailing list Nuke-users@support.thefoundry.co.uk, http://forums.thefoundry.co.uk/ http://support.thefoundry.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nuke-users ___ Nuke-users mailing list Nuke-users@support.thefoundry.co.uk, http://forums.thefoundry.co.uk/ http://support.thefoundry.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nuke-users ___ Nuke-users mailing list Nuke-users@support.thefoundry.co.uk, http://forums.thefoundry.co.uk/ http://support.thefoundry.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nuke-users

Re: [Nuke-users] boiling distortion
I usually use 2-3 distortion nodes to simulate heat distortion dissipation. You can also try using a particle system to drive the distortion.

Straight out of the box iDistort really doesn't do a displacement distort like most people would expect. Instead it tends to translate/offset pixels in x and Y. it's more involved if you want something that looks like a a true displacement map to fake things like ripple glass, heat distortion or lens distortion. Unfortunately I haven't done this in a while and can't remember exactly how we solved this issue. That's not a particularly helpful answer, but at least it affirms your suspicion that something isn't working as expected. Let me see if I can find one of my old scripts.

Re: [Nuke-users] Greenscreen - RED or XDCAM for greenscreen
We have used red r3d straight into Nuke without conversion for our movie which was shot entierly on greenscreen. I made a custom nuke lookup to match the color from the test output of redcine x for the base grade. Thus way i didnt need to convert. We had some issues with compression artifacts that made keying more challenging. Boiling edges. Noisey. Etc. NukeX denoise didn't work too well at times and we had to use neat video reduce noise ofx. That neat video is quite amazing. It rocks! Gotta keep an eye on the camera settings if possible. We also shot on a weisscam 1 for slow motion and it really sucks for chroma keying. This camera is a hack. Avoid it at all cost. Phantom footage are much better Clean output.
