IFF Depth Buffers in AE

[Nicool]

I've to use this effect in AE too... but it has not work. The scale of the parameters to manage the blur are too big!!!

So i've no reply ;)

i had this problem too, i think you have to use rla's, number one, and number two, the default values in the depth of field are like -10000 and 10000, waaaaaaaay too big, you need like .6 and stuff like that, all less than 1. but the main problem i had was the final result looks like crud. instead of blurring to get depth of field it looks more like a mosaic. but if you can figure out a way to get that looking better let me know! hope this helps. :buttrock:

umm, sorry to appear really stoopid, but what's an rla?

Also what layer do I apply the depth effects to - and what settings do I use when I import the images (so far as tga's) into AE. If I use the alpha it treats it as a transparency alpha - if I ignore it, it isn't there to be affected by the depth effects :scream: - if you know what I mean....
