Post trying to use the alpha in HippoCritter
Version 3.0.12 , what is the size I should use to get the alpha clips correct??
I have tested with some clips but when imported they have no alpha at all?? I have to use screen to get a result where the background ( black) is away.
As I was told the limit was 768 (splitted in half) 384 pixels and still I can not have alpha seen.

I have put my file on your ftp so you can check it if am doing something wrong.

I was informed that it is a bug in the 3.0.12 concerning Critter, which is being fixed on the 3.0.13.

When the 3.0.13 is avaible, I don´t know but if you have something you MUST have as alpha in your critter,
contact me and I will help you out!

I just tested the v.3.0.13 on a critter and the alpha works, a workaround IF you are in trouble and really need alpha,
you can (AS I SEE IT ANYWAY ), install the 3.013, import your content and then go back to v.3.0.12 , then you will have it in your library..

I have not myself seen a problem to swap the versions.

and another very very very usefull way is to make content with green background..
Much faster, higher resolution and works allways.

Of course, but often end users have not the option to decide this, they just get alpha stuff!
But as always, Johan is dead right. The key are great and I am just working with a company that need realtime chromakey.

They are going to test this with the 3D set uo they use ( www.turnkey.eu), tge 3dline when using a big,expensive ,transparent film
that takes up the projected image from the floor and gives you "Real 3D", it is really cool and we are working close now for make
Hippotizer for their solution on playback!!

Check it out!!!
