Fly Through Difficulties

Anonymous — Thu, 11 May 2023 12:13:17 GMT

Can anyone help me with a problem im getting with fly-throughs?

After following the help guide, i have created a fly through using 10 cameras. After leaving the fly-through to generate overnight i came in to work in the morning to find that the fly-through had completed, yet the movie itself lasted around 5 seconds and was way too fast.

Does the amount of cameras i use in the fly-through slow down the final product, or is there another way i can go about slowing down the fly-through before in the set-up or following the fly-through being made?

Thanks for your help.

The time is defined by the speed that you need on the path of the cameras. How fast would you walk the length of the path as defined in Archicad? That is the number of seconds that you need.

Each second is 25 frames. 25 times the seconds that you need gives you the total number of the frames that you need.

You can set the number of the frames between each of the cameras, and their total makes the required number of the frames.

Clear as mud?

When you set it up, those ten cameras needed "inbetween frames"
that you specify.

How many frames in total
What playback rate?
What movie software?

Under image compression is a frames per second setting... What is it?

When making flythrus, it is a good practice to issue stills only and then later combine the stills into a movie using something like QuickTime Pro.
