Rotoscoping advice PAR

I had to interrupt a animation using rotoscoping from the PAR and I want to restart 3DS rendering. If I restart at frame 155 will I need to modify the IFL that read the captured video from the PAR??? Or will the PAR start at frame 155 of the captured animation??? Important to know, hope it automatically restarts reading from the PAR at frame 155. Christophe

Christophe, If you render range 155–>END , it starts reading XXXX0155 from your PAR so you don't have to change the IFL-file, also starting with 0 you can force within the DPSPAR.PXP to start at any point you want (last frame counter). And , just for your info there where/are several simpel but nice utilities out here in the AutoDesk forum to manipulate the IFL-files. For example only using 1 out of 3, backwards, etc…… Let me know if you can find them, otherwise i mail them to you… Bye Theo

Not at all, that's the beauty of using an IFL! It always keeps track of where you are, and will grab the proper frame. Greg Pyros
