    • RE: Windows 7

      I got a virus last night on a fresh install of Win7 64bit? Must have sneaked on to a memory stick in work and carried it home. At least that is the only option i can think of?

      nuaha.exe was the name

      Avast caught before it did anything but i'm still not convinced it's totally gone. But that's just paranoia creeping out!

      Anyone got suggestions on making sure its gone and how to sort out the stick?

      I know i've gone off topic but didn't want to create new thread for this

      I'm lovong Win7 by the way, although XP i feel is still King

    • RE: Exporting Hi Quality Animations

      Hi,

      Virtualdub is a very flexible editing suite which is a little daunting to begin with but through trial and error it (and persistence) it soon becomes relatively easy

      Here are Tutorials for learning it's nuances

      it helped me a lot to begin. There's also an extensive PDF out there but I can't seem to find it?

      I'll keep looking

    • RE: Dual Screen Presentation Help

      Hi,

      thanks for the advice. I know this post is really off topic but it's to help build a potential new venture. Hopefully members with experience in multimedia display could advise me to what is best option.

      If the PC had two monitors that feed one projector would I be able to view both screens as one screen through projector?

      Is it possible to view PowerPoint in slideshow mode and su simultaneously?

      I really apologise for such a non SU topic but I know 0% about this kind of setup

      basically I'm delivering weekend beginner/intermediate SU course for small businesses and such. The feedback so far has been positive with the main complaint been switching from SU , VLC , Ppoint etc

    • RE: Exporting Hi Quality Animations

      Do you mean Bil-linear or Bi-cubic Sampling?

      I know it does and good job from this point of view but not sure how it would handle 'filling in blanks?

      I used it for Chris Fullmer's Camera Recorder Plugin and it gave good results

    • Dual Screen Presentation Help

      Hi,

      Does anyone have experience in presenting on 2 screens from one PC?

      Here's my situation

      • 2 projectors and 1 PC

      • Is it possible to run, let's say Powerpoint on one screen and SU on the other?

      • Do i need special software if it is possible?

      PM me if you need more info or just ask here

      My first twilight attempt.

      I'm sick as a parrot after that one.

      What the $@#* am I doing wrong?

      I've read the manual, I've followed the tuts. All that's left is to remove the mallet from my ass and beat myself with it

      Goodnight

    • RE: Render this: SSS

      Twilight User

      Here's my problem -

      Place model in 'Basic Studio' with Omni Light behind model

      Apply SSS material to model (Red Gum)

      Sunlight Disabled

      Sky Type - Background Color (Black)

      Render at Medium+ (Still Cooking after 30mins)

      Vista64bit - AMD Turion X2 Dual Core - 4GB

      When i cooked at lower presets the model was very dark? Do i need to up light size?

      Sounds like something i'd tell my butcher

      Butcher:"Minced beef only"

      Me:"#%$@ you Jeff, you take me for a mutha$%&@£* hustla? I'll peel that wig back"

      Was TIG working on something that would replace a single line with a component and use the line scale and orientation to determine the scale and orientation of the component? Something about that sounds familiar...

      Chris

      Hi Chris,

      This "Replace with Component" idea is extremely exciting. Do you think Fredo's 'GhostComp' could hold some clues on implementing this? I know zero about Ruby Scripting but use Fredo's alot to help keep things running smoothly.

      I realise it needs a component to create various versions of that component and hide the original. But could this be reversed to reference a component from a simple line?
