@JustSamples Go to their homepage and look up PFTrack and click on tutorials. From there they have a link to another program they make that does have tutorials. The layout and workflow is the same as PFTrack 2011.
@saradeva11 When exporting in PFTrack you can leave the scale at 1. That scale is for when you export a solid object from PFTrack. The import scale in C4D should be something like 100 though. I've never had any errors so I would think that would be a problem. I do believe you have to lock down the plain but you do not have to draw the XYZ lines. There have been times that after drawing the XYZ the ground would flip up on its side.
@saradeva11 Sounds like you have bad tracking. If you want you can send me the clip you're trying to track and I can see if I have better luck. Send me a private message with a download link. I'll also put a link to the clip I used in this tutorial in the description for you to download. Maybe you'll have better luck with a different clip.
yea i did follow all your tutorials ... but why it seems that my object do not fit in cinema 4d! it always slides or move...why this?... It seems that the imported camera dont fits the same video in cinema 4d..did i miss something?

@saradeva11 When you imported it into C4D did you use a scale of 100 and them click the little box to look through the camera?
duff916 7 months ago
@duff916 for the scale of 100 am not sure...but for the white little box to activate the camera i done that!
I'll try to do it again with the 100 scale and let you know about it!
thanks mate
