Importing a Sequence With Singing Faces
« on: March 15, 2019, 05:32:50 PM »
I downloaded & imported a sequence with singing faces in it, but the problem is they do not sing. Matter of fact they do not even show up. All the effects & images imported but I can not for the life of me get them to show up. Is this a problem or just a simple fix I over looked.

I just imported the same files and all work correctly for me. Can’t tell for sure from your screen shots, but it look like you have it set up correctly. Did you import the faces with the correct location into the Faces definition on the matrix you’re using? I didn’t do it correctly the 1st time and didn’t get the faces to appear.

Bear with me as this import sequence is very new to me. If I am understanding you on this question when I go to import effects I have checked the timing tracks & placed the sign on my small pixel tree 1 & placed p5 sign on my pixel tree 2. I do not see anything about importing faces. What did I miss?

You really need to just do a package sequence on your result if you want someone to figure out what's wrong.

Importing a sequence doesn't automatically map the Face images onto your models.  You gotta do that step yourself before you import unless there are new features I don't know about.  I opened your sequence and I saw Faces effects on the "Pixel Tree" model.  So I went to layout and selected that model and clicked on the Faces parameter and you have a face named "Dave" that has no images mapped to it.  You gotta map those images for any of this to work.

I see what you are talking about where do I get this information from? Is the second attachment what I need to use?
