Importing Texture in CTG layer - not correctly configured Topic is solved

[vettpolmer]

Hello TVPainter supporters/ users,

I am following a tutorial on the TVPaint website: Documentation > 7.Colorize and texturize an animation > Add Texture

So far I have exported a large texture as .png and as .dip (I read here that it should be exported as .dip : viewtopic.php?f=10&t=8817" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;).

I tried to import these 2 textures in the CTG layer as described in the documentation: (CTG layer) Texturizer > add texture > file > browse > (select .png or .dip file) > ok > start > pop up msg: "at least one texture is not correctly configured." From here, I cannot try out this texture layer and continue the documentation.

Would anyone have an idea how to configure the texture? I have tried different sizes, changed the alpha mode, select colors (under render mode)... and there are no explanation in the forum.

I appreciate your responses - thank you!

the textures used in the texturizer tool should match the size of your project.
that's the only restriction by now.

feel free to ask if you need more advices, it's a complex n powerful tool.

Hello Fabrice,
thank you for your reply. I have attached a image of the msg I keep getting whenever I try to import a texture. The Texture is by the way the same size as the project. I don't understand how I should configure my texture file? :S
Thank you in advance for your attention and help!

Hello again Fabrice,

Ah I think I have figured it out. I had to choose the colours... (this wasn't mentioned in the tutorials so this is where I got stuck). Thank you again and I shall continue on with the documentation.

Actually my bad, it is mentioned in the documentation. Beginning to understand it better now. Thanks anyways!

Already back again ... :S

In the documentation, it states that a new tool panel will appear after applying the texture layer:
https://www.tvpaint.com/doc/tvp11/index ... ters-apply" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Unfortunately, there was no panel that appeared so I tried looking for it under Windows, under Custom Panels, Left side panels, Right side panels... this texturizer Panel seems to be hiding but how and where do you activate it???

Thanks again

[Fabrice]

the "Texturizer panel" should replace the existing "Tool panel" while you work on texturing the layer.

Thanks Fabrice!

I also just watched the tutorial and have almost the same problem. The difference is that I can't find the "Select Color" button for Tracking Zone and Render Area.

Can anybody help PLZ.
