View 2 RepliesI know in the smoke 2012 on OS X you were able to set your keys as Flame. Is this possible in Smoke 2013 beta 5 ?
Also, when in connect FX can you make a hotkey for pan and zoom ? Seems silly that you would have to change that manually every time but I am sure it is user error.
Is it possible to run Flame or Smoke over a VPN? I mean, is it possible to get a license over VPN?

I just found the tool map convert and found out, that it's able to create a cube with different faces. But now I'm wondering, is there a way to combine this somehow with action to create a 3D cube with different clips playing on each face?Also, I don't understand why the faces are not editable in the map convert menu. It only says that face 1 is the bottom and so on.

View 4 Replies View RelatedWe are trying to share files between a Smoke 2013 E1 and a Flame 2013. I can see Flame from Smoke but no the other way around. I can see flame´s projects but cant see any clip. I can see flame´s clips from Safari using Wiretap Central. Are these applications compatible?

View 2 Replies View RelatedIf it´s possible to restore an archive in background, now in 2013.? I mean, as the same way that we import media, via backburner.
View 1 Replies View Relatedjust tried to get access to a Flame Framestore via Wire/Network but unfortunatly I only see the Harddrive, not the Framestore.
I would love to load some conformed stuff from the Flame.
Is this not yet implemented or is there some special setting I have to change either on the Flame or SMAC? (SMAC 2013 prerelease on MBpro)
I was wondering if it's possible to archive Smoke projects via command line as it would be so much convenient.
If so I could create a shell script with my project and library names and just leave it running overnight project after project. Is this possible? Or command line works only for un archiving?
Easiest way to restore a Smoke Linux archive using Smoke on Mac 2012. The archive was saved to an external USB drive that I assume is Linux Ext-2 or Ext-3.
Mounting the drive on the Mac is the challenge. I've read that using an open source program like MacFuse may be an option. Does Autodesk provide a Mac utility for doing this?
Using Smoke EXT1 and a previous user archived his project using the old school method; media and setups seperatly instead of just selecting the project as a whole.
I've draged the media into a library and restored that easy enough but can not find the details of how to recover the setups from the tar file in the archive. It does not show up in the media pannel at all, just an emply folder. How to get these setups loaded into a project?
Is it possible to archive setups without archiving the whole project?

It would seem that when I restore an old archive and enter the batch fx that all the media is correct, all tracking etc is correct but the keyer is inaccessible and all keys are defaulted to luminance of the input. I can't enter and edit them at all.
I also tried restoring to a new project which I setup with the legacy option selected. Am I missing something or is this not supported in pr4?
I just installed my Smoke2013 SP2 yesterday, and today I want to restore my project. From Mr. Grant Kay tutorial, I saw there's restore button once he double click the restore folder. But I can't see that Restore button.
I attach the snapshot of mine.
Is there a way to get into a 2012 Action setup via history in 2013?

I know we are a little behind the times, but when upgrading to Ex1, will all of the existing projects still be usable? Or do we need to "Wipe 'em All"?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm looking to import a model with materials. Is 3DS the only file format that will carry this along? That would suck for me cause my animator does not use Autodesk software. I have an obj with the material jpegs but can't seem to find find the proper wrap mode that makes it all come together. Maybe FBX is a better option.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAny time the gateway scans a directory, which has a clip that has stereo audio, Smoke hangs. Is this a bug? Specifically the file was a Canon 7D file which had audio recorded with it. The crash does not happen when we try a file without audio or a file whose audio has been converted to mono. The file was directly from the camera. Same thing happens when it is a Prores HQ file with Stereo audio.

Network functional as usual, checked all the usual culprits and no joy. Reinstalling SP4 now to see if that repairs links.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have recently upgraded to Smoke 2012 sp2 and have a small issue regarding the reordering of my clips in the source area.
On 2011 when you placed clips in the source area in a specific order and saved it to the library and when you recalled it from the library it would put the clips back in exactly the same place you left them. Now in 2012 when you do that it re-orders them in some sort of chronological order.
Is there a setting that I'm not aware of that will stop doing that as I place them in a specific structure which makes sense to me and is easy to find and understand on large builds, now I'm having to sift through the clips and waste time finding what I did last and checking through versions to find the latest one.
I have a clip that play perfectly fine in my timeline. When I export it, either as a Quicktime or image sequence, the playback stutters every few seconds; basically it double prints a frame every few seconds or something. It's extremely annoying and preventing me from a client delivery in the morning.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm attempting to get Smoke 2012 SP1 running on Mac OS X 10.7.2. After installation, I cannot get the application to launch -- instead I get a "DlVideo Error: No video list" error and then exit.
Hardware specs are attached, in short 2 x 6 core Mac Pro, 24GB RAM, Quadro FX 4800 and Kona 3G. This is built on a clean install of 10.7.2 using the Apple video driver for the 4800. The display is an Eizo ColorEdge CG303W, attached to the 4800.
I would like to install the 4.1.28 CUDA drivers to enable the Mercury playback engine (as this machine will probably also run Premiere Pro), however I'm trying to keep it as simple as possible until I can get Smoke running.
A Euphonix MC Transport and MC Color will be added to the station, however they are not currently attached.
My workstation name is bc118-s001. I'm using an external license server (macnv3), which is running properly.
Storage is currently set to the local disk, which I know is sub-optimal. Ultimately the storage volume will be a fiber-attached TerraBlock 24D, however I'm upgrading that device from 4.6.4 to 5 before I put the unit into production, and would rather not store any data on it before the upgrade.
I've attached the application and shell logs for your reference. The following lines are only the errors from the app.log:

Our tech guys installed 2012 late last year, but suddenly all the 2011 projects are gone. But they still come up on WTC and the ManagedFolder's still fat. Any chance of recovery?

Ok, so it seems that Smoke can only relink one file at a time.
