I am using iClone 6.01.

I also tried this on 5.5 to see if it was my system, but there I have no problem converting to path.

Update: I just saw that this was covered in the iClone 6.01 Issues thread, so there seems to be more people having this problem.

Thank you for the feedback.

Which version, exactly, are you running?  (Patches?)

Well that's odd. It's grayed out for me as well. Guess I'll fuss with it a bit. :)

@PeterG,

I'm American, with Norwegian ancestry.

I don't know why the "Convert to Path" isn't working for you.  It sounds like you're doing everything right.

Have you applied any of the patches?  I'm running 6.0.1213.1 (Help --> About iClone 6).

Unless anyone can come up with other ideas, you might try posting in the iClone 6.1 "Issues" thread, and/or opening a case with Reallusion Support.

I'm sorry I can't think of anything better than that.

Thanks Viking, (I'm from Sweden ;-)

That's what I did, but it's still greyed out. I have 9 Camera Transform keyframes (I have tried it with less too and on less complicated scenes too), all are marked and I then went over and right-clicked every single one in case it needed to be the first, last or something like that, but to no avail. For me the Convert Position to Path is always greyed out.

I also tried this on a basic prop. Moved it around to different positions, double clicked the transform to mark all the keyframes. Went over them one-by-one, still not possible to convert to path?

So neither camera nor prop. Am I missing something?

Thanks again for trying to help out, highly appreciated :)

@Peter,

I'm glad you enjoyed the tutorial.  I haven't tried it in iC6 yet.  Even though I've had 6 since it came out, and I've played around with it, I haven't done any real projects yet.  That's when I really learn stuff.

I'll take a look and see if I can find it.  Maybe you found a bug (or oversight) in 6.

ADDED...

Oooo, you were so close!  :pinch:

Do the double-click like you did to select all the camera's transforms, then right-click on one of the keyframes.  :)

Thanks for a great tutorial, but I am missing some point somewhere as I don't get it to work.

I have added the camera movements. I have marked the camera. I have double-clicked the Transform to mark all keyframes, but I cannot "Convert Position to Path"?

Note: I am trying this in Iclone 6. And everywhere I look the convert is greyed out. Where exactly do I need to go to convert it to a path?



Sidenote: where did the smooth camera movement go in v6, can't find that either? :)

Thanks again!

Wow great tutorial. Have so much to learn with this software. I'm really enjoying these videos, thank you so much.

@CK - I'm glad it worked.  I'm looking forward to seeing your next clip.

@Larraby - Interesting tips.  Layers upon layers, eh?  Thanks.

@Doug (Dragon), Warlord, and everyone - I appreciate the kind words.  :)

I am really looking forward to making more tutorials.  It was fun.  But right now each passing day seems to find me two or three days farther behind on my Pinhead project.  I'm sure everyone can relate to that.
