How do you create the transparent part on the wall or "texture"? Thanks in advance!


Create your image for the wall, then cut out the bit you want to be transparent - you have to use something like Gimp or Photoshop to create images with transparent backgrounds, rather than blank backgrounds (which are just white, usually). Then you export your image as a GIF file, to preserve the transparency (jpgs and the like will convert the transparent bits to a colour). Now, go enjoy Christmas and leave Muvizu alone for a bit! ]]> Sat, 24 Dec 2011 19:18:24 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic265-open-door.aspx Message from Ericksone Sat, 24 Dec 2011 18:25:32 GMT http://www.muvizu.com/Forum/topic265-open-door.aspx Message from Emily


Opening doors was something that we had loads of requests for.

There should be some animations to go with this in the next release (fingers crossed!)

Cheers

Oh thats perfect thx exactly what i was looking for. Using a .PNG just create a wall texture and place a transparent area for the door."Flawless victory"

Thank you everyone else for your suggestions. I'm sure jamie's suggestion will help many...

Only one question what did you use for the door opening.

Did you screen shot the door then just animate it post render AE for example?


Edit... Oh i see it's not your vid...srry

1. Create the backdrops texture to have a transparent section and place the open door just behind the transparent area, this has the benifit of creating a seamless texture on both sides and above the door.

2. Use some fancy post processing effects similiar to what the User Matt did in his video "Thanks, Muvizu.com"




Hope this helps,

Position the open door and place two backdrops each side of it to give the appearance of a continuous wall. This was how I did the effect in "An Introduction to Brian Priest"
