    hi all

    thanx chris,dobrow,Rabinowitz for those helping replies…
    as Rabinowitz said .. i tried rft.. but

    the proble m is
    i usually export tga files from 3dmax.. and composite it in after effects..

    so if i do as u hav said.. i will have to precomp the background done in after effects and then use the max2ae plugin

    the result is that the background layer acts according to the camera .. and at most times the backrground goes out of postion exposing the black
    colour of the background(composition background colour)

    so i didnt get wat i want ..

    what to do ??
    i am frustrated

    help me plz

    expertssssssssss
    thanx in advance

    You may wish to try this in the Cow’s 3DS Max forum which is far more likely to have someone hanging out there who can address more 3DS Max-centric questions. Just a thought…

    Go here:

    https://www.creativecow.net/show.php?forumid=1&page=/articles/onneweer_barend/cycorefx_hd_review/index.htm

    It’s Barend’s review of CC’s new plug-ins. Check out the one called CC Environment. It allows you to wrap the image on the inside of a virtual sphere inside AE that locks to the comp camera.

    Although I still say this is what you should do in the first place inside of Max.

    This is basically how the big movies do BGs. They put images on the inside of sphere’s in 3D. Or in 3D compositors they do a simulation of it called ‘pan and tile’. Pan and tile you can do in AE without plug-ins, it’s just a practice to get it to look right. Look up “Pan and Tile composite” on the web and learn about it as well.
