Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

Hello Mikdog, after trying many times at the office, I wasn't able to reproduce the issue on my end and a colleague of mine of MacOS wasn't either. I am currently still at Annecy, we are keeping this mysterious issue in mind and will do more tests when the team gets back. Super, thanks, enjoy Annec...

Very interesting find, I will check this on my end. Hi Dean, hope all well. Wonder if any luck figuring out the cause of the skipping playhead, please? I've cut down my project's size into separate projects, have been away but will report back once I get stuck in again on whether the playhead behav...

Hello Mikdog, could you upload your personal config.ini file so we can try using it in the office and see the bug, please? Wanted to share 2 vids to quickly demonstrate the KeyFramer issue which seems reproducible - playback normally works as intended, but as soon as I add KeyFramer, the playhead s...

In case useful - when *KeyFramer* is active, the playhead always skips ahead when previewing the effect, is [apparently] impossible for me to get the playhead to play from its current location, I always have to set the playhead back quite a long way back or play from the beginning of the clip.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I try not multi-task on the comp while TVPaint is saving. I must say, this is the first time I've lost a bunch of work in TVPaint (temporarily, luckily the backups saved me). I'm impressed at how fast the TVP engine is once the project is open and working within it. I've s...

So, sharing this more as a warning to others - make backups of your project!! I've been working quite happily in TVP Pro 11, barring the irritating 'playhead jumping ahead bug' which I posted about in another thread. Anyways, I have a 5 minute project that consists of 54 clips (scenes). I have a new...

Hi Dean, thanks, I DM'd you the files.

Nope - the issue has returned.

How do I solve this, please? Does anyone have any tips for getting the playhead to behave as intended, please? I'd be super grateful, I'd like to try finish my work and the tech issues seem to get in the way all too often.

Thank you in advance.

I'm on the latest, TVP Pro 11.7.5 Mac Mini M4. Working with quite a long animation project, I get multiple crashes pretty much every day. Not sure if it's memory leaks with the app or memory usage, but if I leave the app alone for any length of time say over like 40 mins to an hour, when I come back...

Popping in to say - I'm working on a 5-min animation project with plenty scenes in the project file. It's like 16.8gb or something. I had to move the project to an external drive, something went wrong (maybe a memory leak or something when I saved and then started using other applications while it w...

What seemed to solve it was going to: Macintosh HD > Users > [yourname] > Library > tvp animation 11 pro and renaming the 'default' folder to 'default_broken' or whatever, and then restarting TVPaint so that it creates a fresh 'default' folder. Hope this maybe helps someone else in the future.

I'm using TVP Pro 11.7.5 on Mac M4 Mini. When I press spacebar to 'playback and pause from current frame', the playhead does pause, but when I press spacebar again to resume the playhead skips ahead, with increasing jumps ahead the more I press space to pause and resume. :cry: It almost makes the pr...

Sorry to bring up an old thread - I'm using TVPaint 11 and my Spacebar is set to 'Play from current image/pause' however it's choosing to play from quite a few frames ahead of where my playhead is. I imported my TVP shortcuts from another computer some time ago, I wonder if this is causing issues. T...

i have made many many attempts and i have come up with a few nice pencils and brushes. But i find its hard, with the current paint engine of tvpaint, to fully close the gap to truly natural feeling oldmedia tools. A lot can be achieved by using the animated cutbrush in clever ways, yet there are li...

Discovered I shared this in the wrong category, lol. Here's my short 'Smash!' that I made in TVPaint: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIuds_nEIj0 Wrote a post about it here: https://www.mikdog.com/smash/ Latest project not really purely animation, a videogame: https://mikdog.itch.io/bru-boegie-get-d...
