Ventuz Forum

I was just looking at your YouTube channel and noticed the Touch Ripple node video over on the Ventuz YouTube channel, but I don't have this node. The machine in the video is running v4.01.00.515 (not v4.00.01.44 which is the latest download on Ventuz.com). It's not mentioned in the video that the T...

Thanks All, Christian, I turned the animation to Keyframes and exported it to a Collada 1.4 file. But in Ventuz just the rotation is animated. How did you do the animation in c4d, point by point? Or did you do the animation in Ventuz? I'm new to all this and slowly figuring it all out too – my unde...

Depends on the complexity. You will have to bake the animations probably. I think I would go with animating in Cinema4D for this one. Thanks Christian ;) I figured that might be the case - getting models and animations exported out of Cinema4D for import into Ventuz is something I'm trying to get a...

Apologies for jumping in here... would you animate the mesh in Cinema4D, or Ventuz?

Sincere thanks Götz_B and Christian – most helpful! The project that I needed the multiplication blend for went well with my bodged solution, but I've downloaded these files and will give the HLSL code a bash :) Having a busy old time right now with non-Ventuz stuff, but I've finally bit the bullet ...

I wrote some HLSL code that might suit your needs.

Hi – I managed to fake it, but the result wasn't the "multiply" blend that I wanted. I would be interested to see your HLSL shader code if you don't mind sharing it?

Thanks Eric – I've not had to investigate touch within Ventuz at all yet, but as it's the next thing the boss wants to implement, that's good to know! Presumably then I'd have no problems using a Cintiq to test programming of single or two-finger swipes and touch button presses? I don't think I'll n...

Thanks Alex – most useful, and much appreciated! As you own a 24HD (non touch), you'll appreciate why I'm interested in (finally) getting one of the Cintiq displays – being able to use it not only for creative work, but also for programming Ventuz touch projects makes the high cost easier to swallow...

Hopefully not a silly question, but I just wanted to check before spending someone else's money (!) that these multi-touch capable Wacom displays would be suitable for programming touch-based Ventuz projects..?

can you post a simple photoshop file what shows what you like to have? christian No problem Christian – see attached screen grab which illustrates the layers. Logo layer is coloured, has transparency, and is set to "Multiply" blend in Photoshop; Base layer is a grayscale animated backgrou...
