New fully editable F-Curves within PFTrack make cleaning up tracking data extremely easy and accurate. This is perfect for problematic shots or for tracking set extension models into footage. Complex Geometry can be imported and used to solve cameras in addition to the use of automatic or user placed features. With the addition of the unique geometry tracking, pftrack allows 3D geometry to be imported into PFTrack and then matched to sequences, making this an ideal tool for head and facial replacement meaning artists can now be confident that animated CG, when rendered and composited, will exactly match the live action. Points can now be converted to a mesh – allowing the match mover to create terrain models quickly. PFTrack was one of the first 3D trackers to explicitly add the ability can now track many separate moving objects within a sequence, as well as solving camera motion issues – you simply export data from tracking groups, whether it’s camera data, object movement or motion-capture sessions. While many people have assumed that a 3D tracker is ideal to track objects, in fact most 3D trackers do not solve object tracking, it is not a natural by-product of camera solutions and often would not be possible at all with conventional 3D trackers. This can be great for real world complex movements that can often prove difficult to obtain as one universally solved move. This allows the user to take sections of the same shot into linked but separate solutions. One of the main improvements in PFtrack 3.5 is segmented tracking. The 3.0 camera solver provided a fast solution and it has enabled Match movers to handle even more complex shots. PFTrack has gained popularity with matchmovers for its tracking, imbedded image based modeling tools and automatic z depth extraction. PFTrack, is a comprehensive image analysis tool, with both camera reconstruction and object tracking. With Version 3.5 just out, fxguide sat down with Richard Spöhrer Managing Director of PixelFarm to discuss the product in this week’s podcast. Now with version 3.5 this has been refined even more.

Having already established a great 3D tracker, Pixel farm have moved to provide a new level of functionality when it provided object tracking in version 3.0 of PFTrack. With Version 3.5 is due out soon, fxguide sat down with Richard Spöhrer Managing Director of PixelFarm to discuss the product in this week’s podcast. Now with version 3.5 this is refined even further. PFTrack, already established as a great 3D tracker, moved to provide a new level of functionality when it provided added object tracking in version 3.0. by the way, since PFTrack 2012 the programs gotten a lot smarter so the whole deleting. Well none of that seems normal, could be a graphics card issue but i can already see one major reason as to why this may be happening. I’m running PFTrack 2015.1.1, so you’d think in the most up to date version of the program you wouldn’t get stupid errors like this!Īny ideas and help would be much appreciated I read on some other forums to delete the “.Lock” file in the project folder, but it didn’t work. “The application has encountered a fatal error: Would you like to save a diagnostic file?” “Failed to open project: Corrupted project file” This may indicate that there was a problem when the project was last used” Whenever I save a project from PFTrack, close PFTrack and re-open it, it comes up initially with: Thanks for taking the time to help me out with this extremely frustrating problem.
