Freeware VV3 transition

Hi,

I've written a transition plugin for Vegas Video for a particular project
I'm working on. The transition basically explodes the screen into cubes. The
faces of the cubes have the 'A' and 'B' clips on them. The cubes are then
spun around and put back together again to display the 'B' clip.

I'm releasing this as freeware so if you want it you can get it here

Cheers,

Scott

Hi SonicDennis,

Yes, it's an installer thing - I basically look in the registry and get the install path for vegas30.exe. Of course, now we have vegas40.exe - I made a new Vegas 4 version as a 'quick fix'. I will change the installer at some point so that either V3 or V4 use the same install .exe.

The SDK was OK - the only problem (which was a big one initially) was trying to build the sample 'shell' project using Visual Studio .NET and DX8.1 SDK. The plugin SDK mentions DX 6 Media SDK - this was separate from DX 6 core. With DX7 (or DX8?) the media stuff is part of the core so I tried to build it using just DX8.1 SDK and had some problem with a missing dtbase.h - found it on the net. Also the midl compiler produced sfdxext_h.h from sfdxext.idl - the SFBase.h file looks for sfdxext.h so I just had to rename it. All in all, just a bit of head scratching - got there in the end.

Cheers,

Scott
