Overlay won't appear :(

I’m trying to make a looping background, and I’m used script templates from this forum, along with Joesph Evan’s video, but the overlay isn’t appearing when I try to preview it.

Overlay:

oceanloop
oceanloop1920×1136 996 KB

What happens:

IMG_6140
IMG_6140311×552 866 KB

Code:
EXT. ABBEY GARDEN - DAY with OCEAN LOOP

@NALANI spot 1.393 183 -29 AND NALANI faces right

@overlay OCEAN LOOP to layer 1

@NALANI moves to layer 3

@NALANI starts dance_groove_happy_loop

&overlay OCEAN LOOP shifts to -320 0 in zone 1 in 2.0 THEN overlay OCEAN LOOP shifts to -640 0 in zone 1 in 2.0 THEN overlay OCEAN LOOP shifts to 0 0 in zone 1 in 0 loop INFINITE times

Overlay opacity??

3

How do you change that? Like do you know the coding for it?

4

This is the code:
@overlay OVERLAY NAME opacity # or @overlay OVERLAY NAME opacity # in #

6

The layer command for overlays works with or without the word “moves”

7

Neither things worked.

8

Could it possibly be because the overlay is still being approved?

EXT, ABBEY GARDEN - DAY with OCEAN LOOP
&NALANI spot 1.393 183 -29 AND NALANI faces right AND NALANI moves to layer 3 AND NALANI is dance_groove_happy_loop
&overlay OCEAN LOOP shifts to -320 0 in zone 1 in 2 then overlay OCEAN LOOP shifts to -640 0 in zone 1 in 2 then overlay OCEAN LOOP shifts to 0 0 in zone 1 in 0 loop INFINITE times

Try previewing on your laptop. :slight_smile:
