ok TV, the link is updated here

Thanks Fouad, I will have a look. I will not have much time this week to do anything but maybe next week.

I am not sure if anybody has noticed but there are various errors that occur due to the object still being edit mode while rotated/rendered. All types of things can happen if you move the cursor while it is rendering. A frame can be skipped, a mouse click can be registered and draw color on your model, the list goes on. I am certain I can fix this for the next version. But note that this has only happened during the very long renders 30-40 minuttes where I have been surfing while Zbrush rendered. If you leave the computer alone after you press ‘GO’ you should be okay(unless you have a texture map applied to your model)

But I digress, many bugs, many fixes expected in next version.

I had a look at the source for the VRMakeObject.exe, or rather I read the ReadMe.txt :rolleyes: The PC tool VRMakeObject.exe expects to receive a .mov file with 468 frames, at 36 horisontal and 13 vertical (Just select 12 vertical in the script, it is the same).

If you create an image sequence with 36 horisontal and 12 vertical in the script you can convert that to a quicktime movie and run it through the program Fouad supplied in the link above. I think that creates a near perfect Quicktime VR file, maybe a frame is missing but I will check back on that next week.

So now there is 1(?) free tool tool to make Quicktime VR ojbects on a PC. I will try and see if I can recompile the source to allow user definable horisontal/vertical frames/angles. But I am not sure of the copyrights, there is nothing in the compressed file you supplied Fouad, does anybody know? Or should I contact the QuickTime Dev team?

Anyway, It was very nice to get a functional Quicktime VR out of this, I will update the first post with a couple of proper VR .mov files and some instructions to create them on PC and Mac (need your help Mac people, please PM me).

Thanks again Fouad.

Thanks TVeyes for you support and also Thanks to FuadB for your command help¡¡
Here is a test

#25

I don’t know about copyright of this package. then try to contact the author.

but… If they distribut the sources I think if it is for personnal use and experiment, that’s right.

#26

Hi FouadB i this case i used 8 psd then a convert to jpeg and put in Ulead Gif Animator because the number of frames that are pickup with the TVeyes Tool are very large and the final field is to big (more than 2 MB). But I have used the program you put in the forum and it work fine.
I want to know how many frames you use to have a big image like in the light tutorial and can download with the restriction of 200Kb in the forum?
Thanks
Andreseloy

humm… something like 10 or 12 Images. but you must optimise the palette color for your gif.

I used 64 colors. and the file do 57 Ko

#28

Thanks FouadB, I am very impressive about the potential of learning from your tutorial scene.
Thanks again

Neat stuff TVeyes, thanks for sharing. This will work great for doing demo reel turn-arounds. You saved me from having to go to another software to do this.

When I load the script the interface is upside down and backwards. Has anyone seen this behavior?wackedOutInterface.jpg

#31

That script was written for at the very least 1.55b and maybe even an earlier version. Things have moved around a bit in z2 so sometimes older scripts don’t quite work right.

if you are using z2 there is a spin button…i think its called spin…i don’t have zbrush in front of me at the moment…check the tools, transform or plugin menus. When I get a second I’ll look and get back to ya.

#32

lolololol

#33

aminuts is referring to:
TRANSFORM > Zspinner: SpinIt (at the bottom)

#34

Here is a thread that was posted a while ago where Pix explains how to use the SpinIt button’s undocumented features to accomplish something similar to TVEyes’ utility.

Hi

I’m pretty enjoy using the turntable script. Even though I’m using ZBrush 2.0 and the background is upside down. I’ve tried the spin it method too, but that method seems only generate low quality movies.

My question is: is it possible to render the sequence in perspective mode? It will help me render more realistic images.

Thanks

#36

yeah, perspektive would be great for that plugin!!!
is it possible?
greetingz ever

#37

oops wrong thread

#38

getting the following error with script
help.jpg

please help

#39

I suspect that error is caused by a missing folder. Do you have an ‘Output’ folder at the path given in the error message? If not, create one and see what happens.

HTH,

#40

Same with me, the interface is turned backwards like in your case.
Please, dear author, correct us or the proggy.
