[Mediatracker] MutionBlur doesn't work

[undef.de]

When i want to make a Screenshot an turn on MotionBlur, then the Screenshot is not generated. It returns always to the Mediatracker and still show the progressbar, but doesn't end.

Way to reproduce:

1. Load or build a map
2. Go into the Mediatracker and drive a ghost
3. Place your cam wherever you want
4. Take a screenshot with MotionBlur enabled, like:



It display this after about 1-2 seconds



and nothing more. There is an other screen before (without the Mediatracker elements), but from this i can't make a screenshot from.


It doesn't matter which other option are activated or how long the duration at motionblur is setup to.

I have tested this in Valley and Canyon with the same results.

Btw. The option "Car reflects", "Sub-sample reflects" and "RayCast reflects" are not able to activate. I was only able to activate "Car reflects" at the driven ghost at "Force hue".

At the ghost options "Force light" doesn't turn lights on... ahm just noticed, that i have to use the "Light Intensity" to more then 50% to turn lights on at "Day" and "Sunset" moods.

EDIT: At the screenshot the value at motionblur wasn't only "1", i tried also "0.1", "0.001", "0.0005" and many more. Added the ending screen.

Make sure Motionblur is enabled in the launcher settings and make sure the car actually moves when you hit the screenshot icon.

Hehehe... the first time i was thinking you're kidding me... but i have tested it anyway and the result is the same as before: not working. It doesn't show the result and don't ask me to save or not.

I was sure, that i didn't have enabled motionblur in the launcher the last time i made a screenshot.

Thanks for your suggestion anyway.

No not really. I'm always struggeling to get it to work myself. I thought the moving car did the trick last time.
For me, at one moment it works but after changing the camera angle just a little, it stops working the other moment.

MotionBlur for screenshots works for me if I do small amounts like "0.1" or so, but if I do "2" or "3" then it fails after trying to do the blur for a certain number of frames.

I wanted to make a screenshot from a replay where the car is driving of course. But not only the car wheels are spining, the Wind Turbine also spins:

It wasn't a video, it is a screenshot taken as i wanted again in Valley. Maybe the direct link from the last post work for you: http://www.tm-tube.com/get.php?id=28249 and there you can see the wheels that spins.

I have tried many values (0.001, 0.0005...) and 0.1 as well, but all doesn't work.

EDIT: Btw. i added an other screenshot into my first post as well.

Ok yeah, I have the same error as you if I use MediaTracker in the Track Editor.

Replay Editor works fine though, for the most part... except for those higher numbers as I said. In those cases it behaves the same as the MT in the Track Editor.

Ah... i can confirm that motionblur in the Replay Editor works for me (e.g. "0.001" duration), also for higher numbers like "1" or "5".

And the option "Car reflects" and "Sub-sample reflects" are enabled by default, but "RayCast reflects" are not able to activate in the Replay Editor.

And now after making some screenshots, the Mediatracker in the ReplayEditor doesn't work anymore... no screenshots where made, just return to the Mediatracker... very strange...
