i solved thee problem thank you 
hey ! how do we transform a normal room (DAY) to a night version of it.
Is there a filter or an overlay to use for that ??
Iâm trying to direct a scene where an overlay pans along three zones with the camera following it, but everything just doesnât flow smoothly and is very choppy. How do I fix it?
You can ask someone to create a night version for you in Art Resources, or you can just add the EFFECT DIM 60 overlay to your scene:
BACKGROUND NAME with EFFECT DIM 60

Thatâs what I first coded, which isnât the completed coding for it either, but I deleted it and just worked on the scene.
Is it possible to move an overlay and multiple characters at the same time?
I have a rowboat overlay with 4 characters in it that I want to have travel across 3 zones.
I can move the rowboat using â@overlay NAME shifts toâ and the people via spot direction separately, but thereâs a delay between the overlay moving and the people moving and I want to know if I can move everything at the same time so it looks like the characters are riding in the rowboat.
Thanks so much!

So Iâve seen this âeffectâ happen in a couple of stories, where the background fades into a blur, and itâs only the characters that are in focus. How do you do that? And if itâs an overlay, where can you get that?
INT. JUVIE ROW HOME - DAY
Ok so in this scene i want my character to walk down the stairs but her legs make it look weird to walk down the stairs so how do I make it look real?
TBH i donât know how to code that
Ok, I will try to do my best. Wait 5 min. Ok?
k
I think you need a overlay to make it look real
INT. JUVIE ROW HOME - DAY
@cut to zone 3
@JADE spot 0.609 290 457
@JADE walks to spot 0.609 82 299 in 3 AND JADE is walk_neutral
@JADE faces right
@JADE walks to spot 0.983 115 118 in 3 AND JADE is walk_neutral
ok so this what i got but what overlay and how would I use that in scene
You know the stairs?
You need the exact same overlay.
For example:
INT. JUVIE ROW HOME - DAY with STAIRS at layer 3
@JADE spot 0.609 290 457 in zone 3 at layer 2
i donât have the stair overlay
Try searching âOverlay requestsâ in the search box. Many articles will come. Maybe you could ask there for the overlay.
You have to add âin 0â at the end of these commands so that the overlay will already be in place. Otherwise it will take a split second for the overlay to move to that spot which looks a little glitchy.
