Jason Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 I'd love to help you but I have no idea what you're talking about in that thread - I suppose it's all based on those tutorials? What effect are you trying pull off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihab Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 can you post your hip file? I think there's a better chance of solving your problem if we have something solid to talk about. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isxaari Posted January 8, 2008 Author Share Posted January 8, 2008 (edited) *Deep breath* I am trying to copy the cover art effect in the Houdini 101:interface and workflow. See image here: http://www.thegnomonworkshop.com/img/dvd_t...he01/ghe01b.jpg As you can see his whole line from end to end is wavy. I am using one image so its not going to look like that unless i copy the same image a few times. I am trying to get ONE image to look just like one of his images. I am running into problems. If you take a look at Lines_with_noise you can see He pretty much got the effect i am trying to get (say for maybe its not wavy enough but it works) If you take my hipnc file in the zip folder. You will see that I have a Image called yes Temari but its really a yamaha R6. I tryed to copy the nodes from lines_with_noise.hip and plug them into my file but the image goes black. I also did the same thing with the 10.1 hip from the DVD. I have included the file from the DVD in the zip folder. I keep doing what people on http://www.sidefx.com/index.php?option=com...asc&start=0 tell me to do but its flat out not working. I guess you could say I am looking for a . Cover_art.hip file Open up the file click the last node in the tree hey your picture looks just like the cover art. Me...Now i can go node for node and see how it was done. Because people telling me to do this do that its not working it is flat out not working. line_noise_418.hipnc desperate.zip Edited January 8, 2008 by Isxaari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 well #1 I don't know why there is an "import COP" being used to bring the image into COPs - change that to a file COP ( TAB > file) and poin it to your image on disc... then get rid of the local variable crap...I hate those...just plunk down a transform node (not wired into anything) and use it's parameters... ah hell... here is a file http://www.dirtypiratewhores.com/misc/Hard....goldfarb.hipnc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But your file worked. I am not going to be picky either i think with a little work on my end i can tweak it. I should have come here the first day. O_O Thanks to all. This is what i was looking for.

Isxaari Posted January 10, 2008 Author Share Posted January 10, 2008 (edited) Someone in a PM sent me the file that I wanted I mean shit 100% But. LOL I can't get my image to show on these great cover_art lines that *sniff* looks just like the cover. I also want to know why When I plus in the add color lines it does not work. I want to understand why it was not importing the colors. pic("/img/import_img/pic_out",$BBX,$BBY,D_CR) pic("/img/import_img/pic_out",$BBX,$BBY,D_CG) pic("/img/import_img/pic_out",$BBX,$BBY,D_CB) It works in the other files I don't see why it won't work in this file as well? Ah shit. I forgot to name my null1 to pic_out I just did that and the image shows up. Hey Admin. Now that I have the lines like the cover_art and Your lines some how let you still see the image how do I go about doing that in this file. check it out. edit. If you go to the copy node and change the 14 to a 40 and the 3 to a 1 the image is coming out better is there a way to make it clearer? I guess thats my question Cover_art.hipnc Edited January 10, 2008 by Isxaari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isxaari Posted January 19, 2008 Author Share Posted January 19, 2008 (edited) I guess what I am trying to say is that when I go to the copy node and add more lines it just gets taller. But I don't know how to condense those added lines and make them in a way like the admin did so you can make out the Image.
