Re: [Nuke-users] Prosumer Lidar ?

Can you recommend a particular photogrammetry-based tool that creates dense point clouds? Obviously there is Nuke's internal toolset which has provided great results on occasion and I haven't fully exploited it yet. On 30 June 2014 04:42, David Yu dave...@gmail.com wrote: Sense and all the

Re: [Nuke-users] Depth pass(Z) out of 3Delight ...colour :3.4e+38

I would set an expression based on anything above a very large number going to zero. As long as that large number doesn't encompass any actual valid scene values. Then you can run your MaxLuma curve tool. depth.Z100?0:depth.Z On 23 June 2014 12:24, HSK charhar...@gmail.com wrote: Hi

Re: [Nuke-users] deep masking

If all the samples are at the same depth in both A and B, easy, the output samples are a simple mix between each sample of A and B. This is the case for, say, keymixing in a DeepColorCorrect (where only the existing sample values will be changed) I managed to get a deep volumetric keymix

Yes that would be really useful, as long as we are still limited to working in a single multichannel stream for deep images in Nuke. On 17 June 2014 01:54, Frank Rueter|OHUfx fr...@ohufx.com wrote: Hi all, since we still don't have a DeepCopy node in the default Nuke dist, does anybody

Re: [Nuke-users] Sony MXF files to ACES linear

I think Resolve (and Resolve Lite) v10 uses ACES .2, but it has an LMT to compensate for the differences with v9 (that used ACES 0.1) so that you can match the look of v9. On 6 March 2014 18:16, Frank Rueter fr...@beingfrank.info wrote: haha, when i check Resolve Lite 10, it seems to be using

Re: [Nuke-users] CA from grids

Is it feasible to use a lens impulse response then run through a Convolve? Like LensKernelFFT on Nukepedia. It seems that it is able to capture a complex characteristic like that. It's a bit more awkward than shooting grids and using STMap per-channel though. On 21 January 2014 06:16, Julik

Re: [Nuke-users] Is there a DeepVectorBlur already?

Just wanted to say, I see having a DeepVectorBlur as a potentially great way of minimising deep image file size since there would be far less deep samples stored. I'm finding that even for fully opaque non-volumetric surfaces that I know will never intersect with anything, there is sample bloat

This is actually something you can do with Vray in Nuke, at least with a recorded demo I saw online. It would be great if we could just render it through the ScanlineRender node though. On 11 October 2013 19:23, Jonathan Egstad jegs...@earthlink.net wrote: Whoops, I mean Darren… see, it has

Re: [Nuke-users] distance between camera and transformed object

Normally I would say you can use the world_matrix knob of the TransformGeo to get the concatenated position (using cels 3, 7 and 11) but it depends on whether the geometry itself already has a baked in offset or not - meaning is it reading in at the origin or not. If it's not animated and you
