Wonderful plugin!
I'm getting some STmaps generated in BMD Fusion. These STmaps start at 0 but the pixel after the last pixel is 1. So for a 100 pixel width STmap first pixel would be 0 and the last pixel would be 0.99. You plugin is expecting the first pixel to be 0 and the last pixel to be 1.
Would it be possible to add a checkbox that would read the STmap in the way I described?

Hello, I've been using PixMap effect in my lens distortion encoding system, which uses two separate STMaps; ViewMap which samples FootageMap to then sample the footage. It is nice, as it can not only rectify fisheye footage, but also transition between distortions by simply blending ViewMaps of different type in preComp. Imagine transition from anamorphic lens to wide-angle from extreme fisheye source.

ViewMaps map to equidistant coordinate square texture of given ViewMap FOV value. Blue channel encodes vignette. And it looks like this:

FootageMaps map from equidistant space of given FootageMap FOV to the footage and looks like this:

If there's a mismatch between view and footage map FOV, simple tiling scaling ( tile = ViewMapFOV/FootageMapFOV ) is applied when sampling the FootageMap.

I wanted to share that.

Anyway since ViewMap basically encodes theta angle, the coordinates can be rotated, giving full camera rotation in the footage (sic!). Maybe someone or you would like to create that color effect plugin for rotating ViewMaps? Here's the full code in GLSL:

There are four user input values FOV_ViewMap which is the FOV value in degrees, always a whole number; Roll_rot_angle, Tilt_rot_angle, Pan_rot_angle in degrees.

Hope you like it.

Can I use this content for commercial purposes or to create derivative works using this content?

It is intended for use in Japanese pachinko machines.

Hi, I finally managed to download it, but it won't activate on my Mac. It tells me it could be malware. I see little use or reviews. I want to purchase it because it's necessary to use an After Effects template from Envato that I'm interested in.

Is it normal for the Mac to display the alert?

Hey Wunkolo, 

This Plug-in is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much for creating this. I'm a novice on itch and swear I saw some resources you posted for C4D on how to UV Map? Vimeo link was broken I believe. It would be amazing to see a YouTube walk-through of the plug-in and how to properly get a 3D render out of C4D to work. 

I'm just trying to get a characters facial expressions to be composited onto a 3D render like your example. Having that flexibility in AE would be amazing.
