Confused about "Frame Rate" value- Please help.


#1

Hi,

I’m using EIAS 5.5.3 on a project and I am stuck with an issue.

I have a movie texture file that I am using as a camera projection.

My EIAS project is 24 fps. the texture file is 10 fps, this is how it was given to me.

I am trying to have frame 1 of the texture file show up on frame 1 of the EIAS scene all the way through frame 500(the last frame) of the texture file show up on frame 500 of the EIAS scene.

This shouldn’t be so hard but I just can’t get it to work. I have been playing with the “Frame Rate” in the texture dialog box but I don’t understand what changing this value even does.

Can someone help me with this at all?

Could I have Xpressionist do this for me automatically? something like “texture_movie.Frame = Frame;” This is XP 2.01 though and it doesn’t seem like the texture movie frame is accesible to me. Could I maybe add a custom channel and have it reference the frame of the movie?

Thank you.
