I work with Sony RIV and with Fuji medium format, how does this software handles the quality of your content and the format of my raw files? Most add on content suppliers can't match the quality of High Res files, so the 8k or larger files . thanks,
I'm following along the video but I see that Brightness Congrast and Gamma are greyed out when I get to the 13:34 mark of the video.
John was using a beta version of the software here. In the shipping version, Brightness, Contrast, Gamma only light up when you change from Composite Mode from Direct (Classic) to Alpha+Apply Mode.
Awesome tutorial, thank you - however, when I click on the Particle Illusion filter, I just don't have a Glow on option - not even a Glow segment on the right. How is this possible?
This video was recorded in a beta version of the software. The Glow option was removed in the final version. If you want to use glow you can change from Composite Mode from Direct (Classic) to Alpha+Apply Mode and apply the glow separately. I'll add this to our tutorial list.
@@BorisFXco Thank you for the quick and precise answer 😎
How do you get the particle effects to go behind the subject like in the tutorial? I must have missed something.
That was done using masking. You can see John added a mask and was painting in the particles. If you want to get a more complex mask but faster, you can use the EZ Mask found here : ruclips.net/video/CPMLJTogelE/видео.html Any layer can have multiple masks applied to them, to give you control on where the effects are visible.
what's the max file size and/or pixel dimensions that Optics can handle? I tested the trial and it looks like I'm not able to open some files (I'm guessing because they're too large?). In some cases, smaller files open, but then I can only render a couple layers instead of all of the layers at once (I'm guessing because the initial file size is too large and the software doesn't have the capacity to process it?). I currently have 64GB RAM and 8-20TB of scratch space. thanks for the feedback!
Hi Philip, this limitation is probably down to your graphics card. Optics is GPU accelerated so your graphics card can become the bottleneck here. Can you post your problem and system specs on the Optics forum, and you'll be more likely to find a definitive answer there. forum.borisfx.com/
When i click Launch PI from Optics the image doe not load.
Go to the top of the viewer and click on the little gray button between the Viewer zoom and Render view. Change that to Composite over Source frame and you will see your image.
@@BorisFXco Thank you for the speedy reply!!!!
is it now compatible with Apple M1 chips?
Yes, it's got M1 support and Metal GPU acceleration.
@@BorisFXco that's great news, many thanks for the amazing video showing all the capabilities of this new update. As I do concerts this will add so much punch to each image.
Excellent. We've had some great feedback about the speed improvements already.
@@BorisFXco I tried Boris last year when I just received my M1 I Mac but I found it not perfect, can I download the new 2022 version and give it trial before opting for a yearly subscription? Regards, John
Absolutely. Head here and click on the Free Trial button. It'll take you through from there : bit.ly/3jCXGg0
I got the software but mine does not show the particles effects
Check you're using the Optics 2022 version. Both the old and new versions can be installed side by side.
@@BorisFXco shows as version 2021.2
I’m having a really difficult time downloading the new program…..is it because we are all trying to do it at once??? Anyone else??
I just checked, and it seems fine here. Try to clear your browser cache and download again. Might just be a little clog in the system.
@@BorisFXco ok thx. I’ll try again
