Because your really vague "How do I use this program?" question wasn't answered? o_O
I'm not talking about how my questions on how to use PI or Vegas, they were already answered. Whether it was here or You.Tube tutorial, I got those answered. Did you actually read every post in this thread? >_>
Don't go on the assumption that everybody here knows everything about every video-related program. Particle Illusions has help files. Use them. Experiment with the settings. If you've already done every single bit of that and you STILL can't come up with what you need, then re-evaluate what exactly you're trying to do. Maybe you're going about it the wrong way from the beginning. If all else fails, yes you may come back here and ask for help, assuming you can put your problem/question into a very understandable and explained way, explaining what you've already done, what EXACTLY you're trying to do (saying "I want to add effects to my video" doesn't cut it), and then hopefully somebody will be able to help you. But making snide sarcastic comments isn't going to help you along at all.
I never assumed anything about anyone here until everyone except 2 people in this thread started making wise cracks and making fun of my lack of knowledge about these programs. I then assumed that since they're making fun of me that they know but prefer not to help me, which pissed me off, but I never said anything because I wanted help. I made that one sarcastic remark because I now realize that no one will help me here and that they all prefer to make fun of me instead.
Also, you apprently never read my earlier question, the one that I am pissed off about people not answering. Here, let me copy and paste for you:
k. Well not everything. I got the effect the way I want it, and got the effect to take the path I want it to take. Then when I go to import an AVI clip that I want to have the effect take place on, it says that the framerate of the AVI clip is 15.00 fps, and that the framerate of the effect is 30.00 fps, but that it will still load the clip as the background image, but that it may not look like what I intend for it to look like. Then a box comes up that says "AVI request format error." So , I go and change the framerate of the particle effect to 15 fps, thinking it will run the same so it will work with the AVI clip, but the same thing happens.
Can someone let me in on how to get this to work? Do I have to change the framerate of the AVI clip to 30 fps, and if so, how do I do this?
Let's see here. I apparently experimented with the settings because I changed the framerate of the particle effect from 30 to 15 fps. I re-evaluated the situation, thinking I may need to change the framerate of the AVI clip, but I have no idea how to or even if that is what I need to do. So then, I posted this question which I pasted again just for you and I am pretty sure I put it in the most understandable way I could put it. I posted exactly what I was trying to do in that question. All I want is a damn straightforward answer, not everyone coming in here making snide remarks towards me for not knowing how to do something. Is that too much to ask for?
