Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

It seems that if you work in screen mode you have to be sure about your colours. It makes lines lighter if you try to recolor them..

You then have the option of coloring some of the lines a different color from black if you want to by using the Add function in the pen tool . Great post David! What you mean by using the add function? I tried it and it colored more than just the line or I try to say it worked just like a normal pe...

Hey!

I have 5gb memory in my intel mac but TV paint sees only 2. Can anyone explain me why is that or do I something wrong??

Really nice feature. Thanks.
I don't understand too much of this kind of things. Why one can't keep their files in a smooth mode all the time??
Can someone explain to me how this interpolation works..Just interested cause I use scaling a lot.

Our latest animation, The Future's Temporary is at http://www.kowaii.tv
All animation is done in TV Paint. Backgrounds are hand drawn on paper and colored in Photoshop. Compositing is done in After Effects and editing in Final Cut.

I've found a lot of plugins and grg. scripts from different websites. i.e lemec's website and Digital art oasis forum etc. May I use mirage plugins in my TVPA? How about mirage freebies i.e. boardomatic? What's the right place for grg. scripts and plugins in OS X? From this blog http://inklingstudio...

Hahaa. I have to agree. Sketch panel is awesome. Now.. only thing I need is ...a X-sheet with library....by the way, how people are working with TVPA in limited animation? When you have to re-use drawings a lot..

I think it's almost impossible to draw "Disney quality" lines without paper and pencil. Maybe some can, but I think there's not too many. The feel is just not the same and I found it almost as time consuming to draw "quality line" with wacom as paper and pencil. Disney style line...

Ok. Thanks for reply. I asked because I'm working with a rotoscoping project and my job is to draw all the lines. Coloring is going to be done by someone else in photoshop. So is there better way to get the job done than export the whole sequence frame by frame??

Hello! I'm Mikko, animator from Finland.
I'd like to ask if it's possible to export imagesequence as .psd with transparency??
I can export one image at the time, but if I try to export them as a sequence transparency is replaced with black..
