Well, the Joy to the World worked great. Still having a hell of a time getting Brian's Rock Ye Merry Gentlemen to work. Looks like crud! Non of the effects etc resemble the actual sequence. Some effects only play on half the tree, some only play in the middle of the tree, as I said it looks like crud!
This particular sequence used 12 CCP pixels folded to make a 24x25 tree.
I followed Gils step by step. Everything imported OK. I can see the effects morphs etc. Just on playback, doesn't look right.
I also noticed, when I first imported everything saved etc. When I cycled the +/- sign on my 24x150 mega tree, the effects were there, but the strands did not show. I then scrolled towards the bottom of my model. The strands were way down towards the bottom of the model.
I cycled the +/- on the model again no change. I decided to play it anyway. It did play some effects,morphs etc. It wouldn't show up on my model, but was playing on the preview.
I then stopped playback. reset to the beginning again. Tried a re-render. still strands messed up. I then cycled the model +/- button again. This time the strands showed normally. Playback still looked like crud though.
This particular sequence has an 8 row RGB globe tied in with the 24x25 tree.
I can take that sup export to LOR and delete the globe part, and just resave the LMS as the tree without the globe.
would the LMS still work like the sup conversion. What would I select as my X,Y for the LMS.
In the LOR seq. editor, it shows 12 CCP pixel ribbons with 50 RGB channels per ribbon.
IE folded over to make the 24x25 pixel tree. Would I still use the same 24x25 x,y values on the LMS files as well?
I might give that a shot. the sup isn't converting properly. IS SS I can't edit the tree and globe. They are too intermixed in SS. In LOR editor, the globe is separate.
I'm about to give up on this song/sequence. I did get the Joy to the World to convert perfectly.
Thanks for any assistance.
Best,
David
