Ufo abduction

So i messed up something i just cant figure out whats wrong. The "roof pieces " isnt blending in well its almost as if it has to much "metallic " surface and also my green screen footage takes long to dissappear by a second. I tried to change the keyframe of it but i cant find it. Can someone please help me 🤦🏾‍♂️😭0006.jpegIMG_0008.png

    Hi Davien,

    The best thing you can do, is start over from scratch. (Seriously!)

    But if you upload your .blend file (Googledrive, Dropbox, or so) and post a link here, we can see if we can troubleshoot it; Screenshots are not going to be enough in this case, I think.

    Yeah I'd say the best idea is to start over. It's always the best idea, even though your brain sends out pain signals for it. As Martin says, screenshots are not enough to diagnose this, since so much can be going wrong. Perhaps it has to do with the color management, but that would have to be tested.

    You forgot to pack all the resources, so renders are coming out pink from all the things missing. Pack and upload again.

    Hi Davien,

    "worse case scenario I will start over"

    That should be: "best case scenario I will start over" 😉 You will learn so much more that way!

    But anyway, you forgot to go to: File > External Data > Pack Resources.

    Nop, still all is pink, render result is pink and all links are broken. Perhaps you forgot to replace the file with the all packed one on Google Drive?

    Hi Davien,

    As Omar said, and as you can see, the Packing didn't seem to have worked (did you Save your .blend file after Packing?):

    And no, we don't need to 'unpack' resources; it's not something like 'Zipping' files.

    Better, some Images are Packed now, but unfortunately there are still things missing:

    Same for me, I still get various pink all over no matter in what frame I make a render. Basically these nodes:

    There is a lot to go through. I'm beginning to wonder if it's better for you to start over. I mean I bet we can get to the bottom of it and see what was going on, but I bet you'll learn so much more with the knowledge you have now if you get at it from the start and you now know what you have to focus in and you'll be doubly fast and things you see again will make you go ooohhh I see it so much clearer now. I've repeated courses as much a three times in the past, we all do, it is standard practice.
