How to drive a car off of a loop

How do I drive car off of a loop background??? I’m really stuck on this and I need help or give me the temple code so I could copy and paste it on my story…

May I see the script code you’re using now for the scene? :slightly_smiling_face: maybe I can help.

Do you want the background to be looping at all? Or just to have it look like they’re driving across it and then they drive off the main screen at the end? I don’t know if I made any sense :woozy_face:

I get what you mean, so yeah basically I want them to drive off the loop and to drive off I think you have to move the car and that’s something I don’t know how to do.

EXT. CITY HIGHWAY LOOP - NIGHT with CAR ANGLE SILVER at layer 3

sound off

&cut to zone 2

music int_car_quiet

&RIHANNA spot 1.027 82 0 in zone 2 AND RIHANNA faces right AND RIHANNA moves to layer 2
@RYAN spot 1.047 183 -4 in zone 2 AND RYAN faces right AND RYAN moves to layer 1

&RIHANNA walks to spot 1.027 82 0 in zone 4 in 3 AND RIHANNA does it while idle
&RYAN walks to spot 1.047 183 -4 in zone 4 in 3 AND RYAN does it while idle
@overlay CAR ANGLE SILVER shifts to -320 0 in zone 4 in 3

The only thing I could think of doing is not using the loop background and instead using the regular one and doing something like this but this might not even be what you’re looking for lol

EXT. CITY HIGHWAY - NIGHT
sound off
&zoom reset
&cut to zone 1
music int_car_quiet
&overlay CAR ANGLE SILVER create AND overlay CAR ANGLE SILVER opacity 1 in 0 AND overlay CAR ANGLE SILVER shifts to -861 -2 in zone 1 AND overlay CAR ANGLE SILVER scales to 1.000 1.000 AND overlay CAR ANGLE SILVER moves to layer 3
&RYAN spot 1.047 -367 -2 in zone 1 at layer 1 AND RYAN faces right
&RIHANNA spot 1.027 -462 -10 in zone 1 at layer 2 AND RIHANNA faces right
@pause for 0.5
&pan to zone 3 in 5.8
@overlay CAR ANGLE SILVER shifts to 673 0 in zone 2 in 7 AND RYAN walks to spot 1.047 1166 0 in zone 2 in 7 AND RYAN does it while idle AND RIHANNA walks to spot 1.027 1057 -16 in zone 2 in 7 AND RIHANNA does it while idle

bahaha :joy: yours makes much more sense if she wants to use the loop background. I’ve never tried the loop backgrounds before so I just learned a new thing regarding driving off of a looping background. Thanks for your wizardly coding wisdom per usual. :woman_mage:

Ha ha, but doing it wit pan is also right way to do it (you can use pan in looping background too BTW) :heart_eyes:
