Hey guys,

I downloaded the free version to test, but I'm experiencing this error:

Mesh.uv2 is out of bounds. The supplied array needs to be the same size as the Mesh.vertices array.
UnityEngine.Mesh:set_uv2(Vector2[])
AmplifyMotion.ClothState:Initialize()
AmplifyMotionObjectBase:TryInitialize()
AmplifyMotionObjectBase:Start()
what could it be?

edit: hm, taking out "auto register objs" it works. Seems a problem with the Interactive Cloth element, maybe? I didn't grasp what changes though if I remove this option.
edit2: uh, oh, I guess what changes is that it doesn't work. I don't want to do it manually..

 

There's some problems there. Why is the vehicle blurred when the camera is the same relative velocity?

 

Hello

Thank you for evaluating Amplify Motion.

What is your Unity version?

We currently do not support tearing and Unity 5 cloth.

 

Hello. But it's 4.5.5f...

 

Hello

We are not sure but it might just be an artistic choice by the developers. Amplify Motion does provide a configurable culling mask and there are ways to debug possible issues.

I could speculate but it’s best to get in touch with the developers and try to help with any possible issues.

Let us know if you come across any similar issues, we would be happy to help.

 

In that case I will have to get back to you, I will pass this issue onto the AM developer.

Thanks

Sorry if this has been answered but I can't for the life of me find it...

I've got a situation where the camera essentially "teleports" over a large distance. I'd like to reset the blur during this, otherwise there's one frame where everything is "smeared" because of the large "velocity" due to the distance change.
How should I accomplish this?

 

sorry, any news? I'm guessing maybe the interactive clothes are not supported, but that would mean I can't buy this =(.

 

Hello, my apologies for the delayed reply.

Have you tried to disable / enable the Amplify Motion camera script ? If so, let me know if that does not work for you.

 

Actually, that seems to work just fine. Thanks!

 

Happy to hear it, let us know if you run into any additional issues.

 

Hi there,

Do you think it will work with new 4.6 UI elements ?

Thanks

 

Hello,

We are actually looking into it, I will keep you posted.

Do you have a specific usage example in mind?

All the best,
Ricardo Teixeira

 

Yes I would like to use it for motion blured UI elements. For example all my UI elements Menus, Panetls Button are animated. So you know like in AAA games it will looking nice if they will going blur while moving.

 

As long as we can access the required information in order to apply the effect it should work. At the moment I cannot guarantee that it will work with all possible UI uses but we are looking into it. I will take note of your user name and get in touch as soon as we have any updates.

Thanks

 

Is there a best practice for getting motion blur to work on first person weapon cameras?

I've got a main camera and a separate weapon camera, both deferred. I have the motion effect on the main camera with the weapon camera set as an overlay camera. However, objects in the background seem to "overwrite" the first person weapon's velocity vectors, like they're being rendered on top even though it should be the exact opposite (first person rendered on top of everything else).

I've also tried both cameras being forward-rendered, and also combined main camera deferred + weapon camera forward. Nothing seems to help.

Screenshots:

Spoiler

Here's my scene:


What it looks like from first person:


Debug mode enabled:


Previous image contrast enhanced:


And the cube now moving side-to-side illustrating the problem I'm having.

 

Hello,

You are using the best method. Are the weapons on a separate Layer mask?

 

Yes, weapons are on the FirstPerson layer, which the WeaponCamera is set to render while the MainCamera is set to render everything *except* the FirstPerson layer. Additionally, the Amplify Motion effect is set to motion blur all layers.

 

Hi PhobicGunner,

When the weapon is blurring against the background, using this FPS/overlay configuration, it's usually caused by the weapon not having an Amplify Motion Object component attached. This means the weapon isn't registered against AM and motion vectors are not being drawn to the motion buffers.

Can you check if the weapon Mesh game object has a AmplifyMotionObject component attached?

Cheers

 

Hello Andyzano,

We fixed the reported issue and we will soon submit a new update to the Unity Asset Store. Please do test the trial version that I sent you and let us know if the problem still persists in your project.

Thanks!

 

Sorry for the late answer but yes, it works. Thanks a lot!

 

No problem, happy to know it's working.

 

Didn't you said it will work with Unity 5? But in the Unity 5B17 I get below error

AmplifyMotionBase.cs(332,53): error CS0117: `Environment' does not contain a definition for `ProcessorCount'

Yes, it works great on Unity 5! We are about to release a fix for this particular issue regarding B17. We will let you know as soon as it's available in our download system.

To anyone evaluating the latest AM build for Unity 5:

We found an issue in the trial version that prevented the plugin from executing properly. The issue has been corrected and the Trial pack has been updated.

Latest Trial: http://amplify.pt/wp-content/download/AmplifyMotionTrial.unitypackage

• After importing the trial, you must install the following package: Assets/AmplifyMotion/InstallForUnity5.unitypackage
• The Unity related issue only affects trial version; the full version doesn't need extra installs.

We will automate this process in future updates, this is a temporary requirement.

 

Is there a way to use this with VR/oculus rift? I tried the demo version and it looks great until i move my head, then it blurs evrything in head directions. Im looking for the world to blur around me while i fly... I can't imagine how to get around this... Thabks!

 

I'd think you'd want to turn of motion blur altogether in VR.

 

I was hoping to blur the fast moving terrain during an intense flythrough of canyons. Its a cinematic effect, not necessary. like i said its tough because i only want to blur the outside fast moving terrain and nothing else. Maybe make my terrain an object blur? So nothing else blurs...
