Topic: Consistent Lighting with a QCP9000? (Not a Light-Flicker Question)

Hi, so with my THAC 8 entry I had to occasionally put my computer in sleep mode.

But unfortunately, when I tunred it back on, and started up HeliumFrog, the image had gone black, as if there was no light.

This, I thought was wierd, because:

A, the settings were exactly the same.

B, the lamps, set, EVERYTHING was as it was before.

To get the picture bright again I had to reset the camera settings to automatic (Except RightLight, that's always off) then switch them to manual once they had settled.


Unfortunately, the lighting was now different to before, and this is quite noticable.

This problem means I would have to get all the animation done in one session, which is pretty much impossible for some films.

Any ideas on how to solve this?

Thanks.

Only leave the computer in between shots.
