Thanks for another excellent tutorial. Every time I come back to this site I am reminded why investing in RG products was a wise move. Can you tell me if you plan on doing anything with 3D Stroke? I have been hoping for years, ever since I got Stroke, to see some advanced training on this plugin. I would be particularly interested in how the 3D Stroke effects were created for this video:

Thanks again. Keep up the good work.

thanks for the tip on flushing the cache in Firefox. Just wanted to let you know that I still have problems with the watchin the video in Firefox 3.0.5. Anyway, its running nice in Opera 9.63 – so it seems to be a problem on my system with FF.

I checked and the file itself is fine. Try dumping your cache, shutting down your browser and retrying the page. I have a feeling the file got corrupted during download.

Since I use Firefox, I’d do it like this:

Tools > Clear Private Data… > Clear Private Data now.

You can uncheck your history and maybe cookies (although I’d clear everything that was checked by default), but make sure that cache is checked.

I hope you will get this problems with the videos fixed soon, its sometimes really annoying to get interrupted.

Apple Motion has a built in capability that is similar to this but of course no where near as robust or customizable. + My computer usually locks up while I’m experimenting with it.
