Hi so I want to make a car scene with a car overlay and I’m having problems because I made a topic like that a few days ago and the answer was I should use
@overlay OVERLAYNAME to layer #
@CHARACTER moves to layer #
It worked but the char was too small and if I wanted to make the char bigger and previewed it the char was behind the overlay and I have two chars and it didn’t work for to.
How can I fix it and how many layers exits ?
I’m not sure about the amount of layers that exist but it all depends on how you place the characters especially in what order you do so.

so how can I fix it that the char is on the right seat and is not small?
Is this character behind an overlay?

EXT. CITY HIGHWAY LOOP - DAY with CAR INTERIOR 3
@overlay 5363437013106688_CAR INTERIOR 3 moves to layer 5
@CHAR moves to layer 7
@CHAR2 moves to layer 1
So I want Char screen right and Char2 screen left
If they are inside the car, you need them to behind the overlay, so:
EXT. CITY HIGHWAY LOOP - DAY with CAR INTERIOR 3
@overlay 5363437013106688_CAR INTERIOR 3 moves to layer 7
@CHAR moves to layer 5
@CHAR2 moves to layer 1
Do you have specific spots for both characters, if not you cannot do “screen right” / “screen left”.
They just need to have a specific spot on either the left or right side of the screen
Ex:
&CHAR spot 0.604 90 170 in zone # and CHAR moves to layer 5 and CHAR faces left/right (depending on which side they are already on)
That is unless you only had the characters do:
@CHAR enters from right to screen right
@CHAR2 enters from right to screen right

OHHHHHH! Sorry my bad!
Then place them like so:
EXT. CITY HIGHWAY LOOP - DAY with CAR INTERIOR 3
@overlay 5363437013106688_CAR INTERIOR 3 moves to layer 1
@CHAR moves to layer 7
@CHAR2 moves to layer 5

My chars r know before the overlay
The only problem right now is that both are screen right and you can only see a part of the char
If you mean like off-screen then try bringing the character into it.

No you’re not, do you know how to share your story for others to view it before you publish? If you I could view it and tell you what the problem is.
