QTVR Hotspots in C4D

[mdbassett]

hi All,

 

I am able to create a QuickTime VR Panorama's in Cinema 4D, but does anybody know how I create hot spots for me to link to another QuickTime VR from ??? ie Exterior QTVR with hotspot on Door to interior QTVR.

 

Thanks M.

You can't do it with C4D only - I think you need a QTVR authoring program - forget what it's called.

 

Sorry, I'll see if I can find a link

 

try this one for some general info from Apple's site (QTVR is part of Quicktime):

Yep I have been looking at it and can't come across any reference to hotspoting the QTVR. Ahh well. Thanks for the info.

well from that link you can find this:

1. Importing source nodes

2. Defining hotspots

3. Connecting hotspots to their destinations

4. Previewing the connected movie

5. Exporting a multinode or HTML-linked movie

 

It's only $80... seems reasonable

The method I have always used was to render out the QVTR sized image in tiff format from C4D. Then take the images into a multinodal QTVR app....I used Apple's QTVR Studio. All of the nodes can be created and linked there. This includes drawing the hotspots and likning to the next QTVR.
