Thanks Phil,
I found out that it isn't a problem with SN not seeing the lights but SN isn't able to locate any of the pluggin's I have added. So, all the dp lights and grit node can't be...

So I have been putting together and animation in layout that uses some volumetric lighting. On my computer the renders look just right, but when I send it out to the renderfarm (I'm using Squidnet)...

I am working on a project that involves a lot of CG elements. Enough, that it would take a very long time if they were done by just one computer. So I set out to build a “Renderfarm.” After some...

Again guys thanks for your help, I am painfully aware of how poor my modeling skills are. Your patience is very much appreciated. I am always looking for some good tutorials to get better. If you...

Sorry guys, I didn't explain this very well. It was a sub-D object, I froze it and now have been tweaking it. I think the breaks happened after I subdivided it and smoothed out the whole area, but...

sorry, I didn't realize how bad that first pic. was. Here is a better one. I wouldn't mind uploading the file accept I don't know how. Give me the low down on how and I'll do it. I did check for 2...

I'm not sure what's up here. I have been working with a sub D mesh and getting just the way I want it. Then, I take it into Layout to do some renders and find these breaks. They can not be seen in...

After days of trying to set up sceamernet without success (CURSE YOU WINDOWS NETWORK!!) Modeler can’t find the presets anymore. I still have them in layout and the folder is where it belongs and is...

I found the DVD's by Jarrod Davis at http://desktopimages.com/. You can get the set of Composting and set extennsions for $100. That seems like a good price.

Yeah, that whole 4 thread thing was a mess, I had a little computer freakout and now I don't know how to delete them.
What I'm after is instruction on how to get the best result with lightwave, to...

I've been looking around for training DVD that focuses on video compositing with lightwave 9.6 and I can't find one. I have looked a Kurv and 3D garage and while I have found one at Desktop it seems...

So, here is the latest. I tried to follow as much as I could from all the you guys had. I also added some motion blur and film grain. I like the results, but what do you think?

Thanks, This has been SO much help. I still have a lot to learn and I'm looking forward to being able to really dial these things in. As it stands now the first showing of this project is in less...

Thanks guys, I am trying to follow you and figure this out. I have worked harder on light set up, added radiosity I have already seen some nice results. I tried setting up the delta node but, but...

So, I' m new to lightwave and 3D animation. Ive been trying to composite some CG elements into live action footage .After getting help with my first few road blocks now I would like to get a...

I guess that makes sense because it looks right after I manually fit it to the widescreen in After Effects. Those were my big problems and I want to thank you guys for the help. The next thing is...

In the Camera veiw it looks right but when it renders it's 4:3. I have been able to tweek it in Aftereffects, but I would rather render it correctly.

It does say 1.2, is that right or do I need to change it?

hey Nick thanks for the help.
As far as the Preset res. I am using the D1 NTSC widescreen.

Thanks for the help with the background issue. The 32 bit PNG worked great.

Now, I am trying to set up my ground plan to not be visible to the camera, yet still show shadows. Again, I know...

I have been rendering png 24bit. I'll try going with the 32 bit. What I'm getting is not the ground-sky garnet but the back drop color. By default its black and I can Change color but not to...
