Help !! I'm on 3ds max 2010 and i can't find " show background "

[vfxworld]

@cocoCOD4 .. Press alt+B in your viewport.

i mean when i click render it only renders the selected frame and not the whole animation. will .avi have alpha channel?

[vfxworld]

@StupidVids2009 click F10, there you can select a single frame to be rendered, the active timeline or a specific range. It's the first pull out panel. I would prefer a .tga image sequence or a .jpg. yes, that takes some more HDD space but got a better quality.

[StupidVids2009]

ok its working. thanks! but i have another quick problem. (sry) mine isnt in a sequence u know how to fix that?

[vfxworld]

@StupidVids2009 what do you mean by "isn't a sequence"? You can convert a .avi to .jpg_#### sequence..

For all the people have the numframes error, there are 2 things you can do.

1. click on the *script*.ms file, edit it, find b.numframes = xxx setAsBackground b

>delete those

2. movies background 3ds can imports are only in .ais format!!!

Thumbs up so everyone can see!!!

hope this helped :)

@reaperkaran what snahfu said and here it is, watch this vid @ 4.22 /watch?list=UU1MD-nXR_zoEcp5m1­u-h8BQ&NR=1&feature=endscreen&­v=_DAd2R1h8VY&fb_source=messag­e

Never had this error, but i hope that this is what you mean ;-)

[snahfu]

@reaperkaran i think i had this same problem, open up the max script file you exported (.ms) and look for the line that says filename = "FILELOCATION\FILENAME.avi" and if it has a ) at the end of it delete that bracket and save and then re-run the script.

[mauroalzate]

@TheThePianoPlayer I have same problem, any answers

[reaperkaran]

HELP..! Im on max 2010, when i run max script i.e. boujou solved camera in .ms format for 3d studio max., im getting "syntax error.....Max script FileIn exception...In line file name...(name of original footage)", WHAT DO I DO...?

@StupidVids2009 No .avi don't support alpha channel. Use .mov
