I think it should appear in this playlist.

Re: ProRes 4444 with Alpha not working?

Even a zipped folder with the PNGs should be fine as deliverable.

If whoever edits the stuff needs ProRes 4444, it literally takes seconds to turn the image sequence into a QT .mov file with QuickTime on the Mac.
Apple Motion can even import the image sequence directly as if it was a movie.

Re: ProRes 4444 with Alpha not working?

ffmpeg seems to be able to render in ProRes 4444: http://www.authorityfx.com/prores-4444-on-windows-pc/ Also you could ask if ProRes RAW would do as well (much larger files, though). At least there are official drivers for Windows from Apple for ProRes RAW: https://support.apple.com/kb/DL2033?locale...

Webinar with Lostmarble on my series

Lostmarble just asked me to do a webinar on the production of my series Phungus & Mowld as a one-man operation. If you're interested in taking a peek at my workflow, character rigs, and setup, don't miss it! https://moho.lostmarble.com/blogs/news/webinar-how-i-created-an-entire-tv-show-by-mysel...

Re: ProRes 4444 with Alpha not working?

I found even the ProRes 4444 that Moho creates on macOS has a fairly "dirty" alpha channel, never worked well for me. If I want alpha channels I always export as PNG sequence. You can however then use QuickTime player to open the PNG sequence and save it in ProRes 4444. That will result in...

Re: When will we see Moho 14?

All I want for Moho 14 is better stability and better performance for preview and final render. Use GPU acceleration throughout the GUI (maybe Vulkan for windows and via MoltenVK metal 2 on macOS?). Give me more options to optimize rendering speed in the viewport (full res, half res, quarter res, li...

Re: When will we see Moho 14?

I don't want any new features, but proper Metal and GPU acceleration and GPU rendering support on macOS. This is way, way overdue. Currently playback performance in the viewport and rendering performance are still not good, there's a lot of room for improvement. Also better stability. Complex long s...

Re: Is it possible to make animations look like Disney 2d style with Moho? take a look at this effort.

AFAIK this was done in Moho:




And that was way back in 2007, so I think, yes you can, but it'll still take quite some effort.

Re: Moho still lags on Mac unless started in low resolution mode

It's the viewport rendering that's just really slow when you use higher resolutions. It's not related to particle emitters or other things (although those make the viewport in Moho just unbearably slow).

Re: Moho still lags on Mac unless started in low resolution mode

I've raised the issue in the support forum (https://lostmarble.com/support/) and the the developers are aware of the issue. I also sent them links to several threads in this forum where the problem is mentioned.

Re: Moho still lags on Mac unless started in low resolution mode

I have no idea why people are early adopters of new OSs and software versions when they rely on them for work. I have no idea why Apple bothers to put out developer previews of new OS releases like half a year or more ahead of the release when developers (and shamefully the large companies are the ...

Re: Moho still lags on Mac unless started in low resolution mode

It's a bug a memory leak, has nothing to do with protected memory.
Modern macOS (Mac OS X) is based on BSD Unix and NeXTSTEP which had protected memory long before Windows even existed.

Re: Moho still lags on Mac unless started in low resolution mode

Aaah, well if I switch the resolution of my Mac to anything below 1080p it does playback smoothly in the viewport. Yeah, that's exactly what I got a 16" retina laptop and a 4k monitor for. To run it in 1080p. Party like it's 1999! When do we get options to lower the resolutions in the viewport,...

Wut?!?! ProRes 422 is gone?

I don't want to create monster files for every export! Why is there now only ProRes with alpha channel left? Would be nice to be able to choose between ProRes 4444 (alpha channels) and ProRes 422 HQ (no alpha) or ProRes 422 to get considerably smaller files when alpha channels aren't needed. Not eve...
