Fcheck/RenderGlobals issue!!
I have my render globals set to 550 frame animation, name.#.ext, as jpeg, with a buffer of 3 zeros (so I can take the files into After effects).
What I dont understand is why do you have to select jpeg in the globals as it only always out puts the files as .iff no matter what I select.
So I can only open them in Fcheck if it was a jpeg I should be able to open it in PS, but Fcheck has to convert it first? And then when it does convert the files to jpegs it knocks off the zeros which means I have to go through and put them all in so AE can import the sequence.
What am I doing wrong guys?
cheers

I know these are dumb questions, but it's all I can think of. I just created a practically identical scenario and I cannot reproduce your problem.

You may want to contact Alias technical support on this problem. What version of Maya are you using?

As for it defaulting to iff's I'm not sure. There are certain things in maya that can only be done with iff's such as z depths etc but that shouldnt be a problem.... hmm could you post a scene file where you're having the problem?

Not trying to go off on a tangent or anything, but why do you recommend padding with 4 instead of 4 Pure_Morning? You only need it to be as high as the number of digits in frame number in your animation I thought.....
