imf_copy, im_disp, convertfile

Hi,

I’m not sure if this is normal or what, but I can’t open imf_copy for convertfile script. When I double click it, the command screen pops up and disappears, so I can’t use it.

As for im_disp, I can open it, I used it to convert my file to .map. But, I’m not sure if that is the reason why I’m getting tile looks when I render in Maya. The gradiation seems to be wierd.

Something appears to be converting the map to an 8-bit image rather than 16-bit or 32-bit. I can’t tell you what’s doing it, though.

Hey Aurick,

I tested it. It looks fine when I’m using .tif. The problem with .tif is I keep getting errors saying its .tiff. I specifically saved it as .tif also since maya can’t read .tiff.

The reason for gradiation is because I used imf_disp to convert my file to mental ray .map. This causes the gradiation problem. But arent we suppose to use this converter to fix it??

Anyhow…I’m not sure what to do.

tried the im_disp conversion from .tiff to .tif. I get gradiation. Its the darn thing! It might be flattening my gray scale. :frowning:

I’m starting to twitch here! I keep running into new problems when I haven’t even figured out any of the old problems. :frowning:
