Re: Monkeyjam 16;9

MonkeyJam doesn't really do 16:9. The best way to achieve 16:9 would be to simply animate in 4:3 in MonkeyJam, then export it, then crop off the top and bottom in other software (this could be either video processing software like VideoMach or VirtualDub, or editing software like Sony Vegas). Remember not to crop anything off the sides or scale it down or something.

Re: Monkeyjam 16;9

yeah, but my editor can only crop out in squares. and i cant get any other software because my dad set a password for downloads, then forgot it.

Re: Monkeyjam 16;9

Hehehe

I don't think you know about the sig rule yet...

I do not care about your opinion, unless it has to do with it needing more ponies.

When you probably haven't set the cropping things right. Could you post pictures of how things look?

Re: Monkeyjam 16;9

sure:

it first looks like this:

as you can see, it has the two bars to represent 4;3

now in this one, it converts it to 16;9 but it zoomed in and clipped part of the head off, and that head could possibly be vital

Re: Monkeyjam 16;9

What does the original image look like?

Re: Monkeyjam 16;9

the top image is what it origionally looks like, the bottom is when it is cropped, yet again, it also zooms.

Well, this is exactly what is supposed to happen.

When you take a 4:3 image like this...

http://www.majhost.com/gallery/BertL/stuff2/10-07/fly-crop-1.jpg

... and you cut away the top and bottom to get a 16:9 image like this...

http://www.majhost.com/gallery/BertL/stuff2/10-07/fly-crop-2.jpg

... then you will end up with less screen room, because you cut away the top and bottom. The zoom is simply there to fill up the room (the black bars on the side). What else were you hoping would happen?

Re: Monkeyjam 16;9

stretch it out hopefully, but again, i think i hit a dead end. but i still am trying to figure out how ScreamingTantrum gets his raw video 16;9 without cropping it.
