[twanajester23]

Never mind, I LOVE YOU!

[ThaWhiteEagle]

@twanajester23 How'd you fix? mines still black :(

[twanajester23]

Arrrrrr, this doesnt work for me.

[twanajester23]

The sequence is black for me.

[NewAgeDirector]

Great video keep up the good work.

[NarDmaSteR100]

[ICheezI]

@NarDmaSteR100 I recorded it via PVR /:

[NarDmaSteR100]

@ICheezI

no how did you get that clip like in spectator or a real game or something like that

[ICheezI]

@NarDmaSteR100 spectate

[Hater999999999]

my text is moving why?

[ICheezI]

@Hater999999999 Because you didn't track it properly

[Hater999999999]

@ICheezI i fixed it i was watching acrez tut cuz i am using Boujou 5 ;)

[sHuzifyy]

my sequence from boujou used to work, now it just shows up as black. halp D:

[ICheezI]

@sHuzifyy I don't know why this happens to certain people. Maybe it's a virtual RAM problem or something I'm not sure sorry

[ScHooLzZSHiT]

thnx

[TheMattBoby]

Too fucking complicating.

[RedstyleCA]

i dont see my text -.-"

[dunnahh]

@RedstyleCA Your floor is too high :D

[LawinReborn]

Could you send me the clip please :)?

[ICheezI]

@LawinReborn no

[LawinReborn]

@ICheezI Wow, unsubbed.. ;)

[ICheezI]

@LawinReborn lol, i made this vid a long long time ago. since then i've build a new pc and formatted. plus the fact that i dont play xbox anymore so i had no need to keep the clip

[LawinReborn]

@ICheezI Yeah I could understand that, I was just joking :P But you could have explained it in a nicer way than no. But its alright :)

[ICheezI]

@LawinReborn yeah my bad, just got my graphic card back from the shop so i wanted to get on and test it not answer comments lol

[MeetMyMeatBE]

Very helpful tutorial, thanks alot! Cheers! :)

[Schlendiablegames]

omg trackfeature needs 1minute and camera solve 2hours FAIL !

[1Petter5]

Why not a mograph text ?

[ICheezI]

@1Petter5 would it make a difference?

[1Petter5]

@ICheezI I dont know, thats why I asked.

[Razinglikenp]

at the beginning everything works but when i remove my objects a bit and play with the settings after some time the tracking doesnt work anymore, it doesnt fit , any tip for me?:(?

[ICheezI]

@Razinglikenp any editing you have to do to the clip other than colour correction i suggest you do it before the motion tracking. For example if you plan on altering the clip speed then do that before you track it. if this doesn't help pm me with what you are trying to do exactly and i'll try to help.

[AtactHD]

1:10 helped me so much. i watched AcrezHD's tutorial, and he uses boujou 5, in whichyou change the framrate upon import, so when i imported a 30 fps clip it would default it to 24 fps and make it look not real. thanks dude :)

[ICheezI]

@AtactHD Thanks, nice to know that after all this time people are still using this tutorial :) even better to know that it helps lol

[Viibeezz]

the material is just black in C4D?

[ExeuZ]

The smaller the space of Co-Ordinates in Boujou the better? as i'm still interfacing some type of 'Bouncing' Problems like the text, it doesnt stay "still" it just kinda moves from left to right as the pan goes, hard to explain, any solutions?

[ICheezI]

@ExeuZ If I'm honest it's been so long since I've used any editing software I've forgotten lol but I don't think the proximity of the Co-Ordinates makes a difference as long as they're all in line like I said on the tutorial

[spyner929]

can you save as image sequence in sony vegas 8?

[ICheezI]

@spyner929 Try going through the render process I went through on Vegas 9

[ICheezI]

@spyner929 Try going through the render process I went through in Vegas 9

[spyner929]

can you do this in sony vegas 8?

[ResistantPictures]

by me it doesnt stand still it always move with the video pls help me

[ICheezI]

@ResistantPictures You haven't tracked the points correctly

[ResistantPictures]

@ICheezI i the clip i ran back so how i must track the points?

[ICheezI]

@ResistantPictures Please re phrase that it makes no sense

[ResistantPictures]

@ICheezI Now i know my mistake thx for help and the really good video :DD

[ResistantPictures]

@ICheezI i the clip i ran back so how i must track the points?

Does it also work with cinema 4d r10??

[kirkyHD]

when i open the avi in c4d the metrail just goes black help

[BoostForRespect]

the text just moves slower. it doesn't stay still

[ICheezI]

@BoostForRespect Then you are tracking wrong

[BoostForRespect]

@ICheezI yeah i worked it out. it was a window and i was tracking outside. thanks for the tutorial

[ICheezI]

@BoostForRespect No prob, I'm glad that it's still helping people after all this time

[MySubscribeme]

Nice video!!!!



[ICheezI]

@MySubscribeme thank you

[MySubscribeme]

@ICheezI if don't help try to convert video to MOV format. that must be work!!!! :) have a nice day!!!

[xCoDxGameplayx]

in scene geometry.. what do you put the axis as if you rotate around a point?

[JewInABoxD]

when i try and make a material with the wmv video it just turns blank do i have to use a different format?

[albozzadii]

Srsly dude..

you know what ur doing..

respect :P

[LuffarrN]

Camera Solve goes slower then hell! Took me 30min for 40%

And i dont have a bad computer.

AMD Athlon2 Quadcore @ 3GHz

6GB Ram

ATI 5750HD @ 1GB

SSD - Solid State Drive @ 32GB

[ICheezI]

@LuffarrN Then I guess it's something to do with the clip maybe it's a big file or you have a shit load of trackers

[MySubscribeme]

@LuffarrN download and install the newest version of Boujou!!!!! :)

[Slomoshun09]

Can you please tell why my "Export Sequence" file is blank? I followed the steps and the file still comes up blank..so I end up not being able to use it as a Material in Cinema 4D.

[ICheezI]

@Slomoshun09 So many people have already had this problem and I'm sorry I don't know how to fix it, it could be a number of problems but I've never had it myself

[ZmerfzHD]

Um.... sorry for newbishness but, how do you render as jpeg sequence? 0.o

It's not there on mine. :(

[ICheezI]

@ZmerfzHD It is there your not looking hard enough lol

[ZmerfzHD]

@ICheezI Dude, i promise you it's not there, but i'm not going to hassel you lul, as i know how that is from personal experiences ;) hehe. :3

[ICheezI]

@ZmerfzHD Lol I don't mind I made a tut for a reason but I honestly don't know why you cant see it

[ikpure]

@ICheezI he is right, my vegas doesn't have option either i had to download another codec for vegas which allowed me to save the video as image files

[froggythegamer]

473 mb...thats not big at all....

[MonsoonHD]

When i export it unless i make the floor cover the whole area it doesnt export the background. Like lets say i have the floor and the text and the light, itll export all that but the top half of the map will be black.

[ICheezI]

@MonsoonHD First off why are you exporting it and not rendering? Secondly make sure you have done everything I said to do with the floor. If I remember correctly that only happens if you don't set the material on the floor to frontal

[MonsoonHD]

@ICheezI I fixed that problem, i just haveto make the floor cOver the whole map:/ but now when i do the motion tracking, it shakes back and forth slightly instead of being completely still. I have no idea why its messing up so bad. Im using final cut pro boujou and c4d. I followed everything very closely but i feel like i mess up when choosing the points

[zediada]

LOVE YOU :D TY

[ICheezI]

@zediada LOL oooooooooooo k then

[57o]

When I put the clip in C4D it just get messed up and not lined up straight as yours! Why? Here's a pic that's showing the problem.

forumbilderDOTse/showDOTaspx?i­id=1320201030651e75e

[ICheezI]

@57o I can't goto that link apparently Virgin Media is unable to find it lol. PM me with abit more detail becuase I'm not sure I understand the problem you're having.

[dizl0l]

nice tut thx !

[SimpleMediaa]

mine comes up with error message saying no licence found loccaly or on network help please!

[AWTAssassin]

@SimpleMediaa mine tooo! did u figre out how to fix it?

[SimpleMediaa]

@AWTAssassin yes :)

[SiiLenTxSniper]

When I save as sequence and loadonto material it does not work? Any insight / help:S

[ICheezI]

@WickedGamingHD Doubt it i use 64-bit too

[ICheezI]

@WickedGamingHD Ok when I made that tut I had a 2.8ghz quad core 4GB DDR-3 and a GeForce 8800 GTX and mine was like lightning believe me, taking hours does seem a little extreme but maybe your PC is starting to bog down abit

[ICheezI]

@WickedGamingHD To be honest it could be anything from a faulty HDD to a corrupt frame but hours to do 500 frames seems too damn long, 1st thing that pops to mind is maybe your computer isn't upto the job. I have a pretty beastly PC and it still takes a while

[codmaku]

u helped me a lot :)

[sonosaeterno]

Every tutorial I found on Youtube for Boujou and Cinema are all done in COD4 and are all panal camera movements. I need a free move, you know of any??

[ICheezI]

@sonosaeterno The reason people use CoD 4 is because MW2 can't compare, the reason I used CoD 4 is because It's on my PC and I recorded it at 200 FPS for better quality. As for the free cam, I'm planning on making an advanced motion track tut without using the .AVI as soon as I get some time off work.

[Theminneymen]

REALLYYY nicee man! How come u couldnt make my minitage again ? Wud u edit my First Blackops Mini ?

[ICheezI]

Ok for all the people having trouble loading the .avi just make sure you're loading the avi from Boujou. I'm at work all day today but I'll if I get time in the morning I'll make a tutorial for an alternative way to do this

[ludi66]

When i use the avi video as a materil its just black and you can't render it... Please help me

[ICheezI]

@ludi66 There are ways to get around this but before we go another way do you know what size the avi is? A friend of mine had the same problem and it was because the file he was tracking was too big for C4D to load

[EpiiCgameplay]

@ICheezI hey i have the same problem aswel... my file size is 16.1mb :(

[EpiiCgameplay]

@ICheezI hey i have the same problem aswel... my file size is 3.31 gigs sorry i checked the wrong thing... ima try putting it in vegas and re rendering

[EpiiCgameplay]

@ICheezI mines 3.31 gigs howd i fix that? :(

[ICheezI]

@EpiiCgameplay Ooook that seems abit too big are you sure that you're loading the .avi saved from Boujou?

[EpiiCgameplay]

@ICheezI yer im sure i am :o hmm if uve got skype add me : redcow789 itl be alot easier :D

[trueheads]

Wait for the background did you use a video?

[ICheezI]

@trueheads Yes

[trueheads]

Mograph Text Object is better than extrude nurbs.

[ICheezI]

@trueheads Mograph is better for some things yeah but the tutorial was to show how to motion track not show you the best text object

[skillboss99]

Nice tutorial , really helpful for montages : ) , thx !
