Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

Since I work in a mixed environment and get files from any origin I made it a habit long ago to sanitze file names as well as path names down to 7bit ASCII, even name layers that way. It pays in the long run.

Could you move the files to a place where there are no special characters in the path? Then try again.

Oh yes, that is an issue in all programs I use. My usual workflow is TVP to Moho or FinalCut. In Moho it depends on brightness of top and bottom colour. If I animate white clouds in TVP to put them on a bright blue sky in Moho, I use "no premultiply". Some bright clour on the same colour i...

I'm still just halfway through viewing the other entries in competition (more than 700!), or, what I call it, "benchmarking". There's not much in terms of 2D drawn animation, but I just found one mentioning TVPaint: YNS-Lpv4tnA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YNS-Lpv4tnA&list=PL0SqtI95...

As a workarouond: could you convert and save the video to something else, like .mp4?

If you only need the audio, you can open the video in Audacity and export as .wav or .aif soundfile.

Just a very small one this time.

- Remember that any FX is only applied to the frames you select in the layer. So if you select only the few frames at the impact there will be no shaking elsewhere.
- You can select and shift the FX keyframes to another position in time, so the same effect will be applied to different frames.

Since they shifted the deadline a month I thought I could try and do a second competition entry in less time. This one much has some more Moho elements in it, but the drawings and textures are all done in TVPaint as usual: ANXB6dHrmpM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANXB6dHrmpM The songs' age really...

Just a guess: did you have a larger custom brush selected before you select the line tool?

Just got the confirmation email: I'm part of the official competition https://www.pinkfloyd.com/tdsotm50/competition now. Some may have heard of the conundrum their announcement caused in February since some of their terms were questionable, but they have changed and improved this in the meantime. A...

I tested the brush engine somewhat to the extreme with brushes containing 150 bitmaps, so I could build something which at least doesn't repeat too obviousy. But on my wishlist would be an option to 1. name bitmaps within a brush (or at least number them), then 2. have some way to shape conditional ...

I tend to create brushes much too large and have to scale them down later. But yes, different project dimensions require different brushes. In my case that's not so critical since I use different styles anyway, I scale between 20% and 250%, just how I need it. I use project-related custom panels a l...

I'm quite happy already with the recent brush engine. I spend quite some time in creating brushes, but I never had the feeling that I've "maxed out" it.

Totally forgot to show off what I did this summer (and last summer as well), I'm quite busy with commercial work. https://www.kindernothilfe.de is a well-established german charity, they organize projects all over the world to help children. To raise awareness for their case, for 3 years now they di...

I'm not aware that there's dedicated caricature brushes, since there's more than one style to caricature. If you could show an example of the style you're looking for?
