Mocha for Fusion?
Posted: Sat Jul 05, 2025 9:08 pmIs anyone using Mocha for planar tracking? If so, can you set the reference time? I tried using Fusion's native planar tracker but it I keep getting the "invalid reference time error.

Posted: Mon Jul 07, 2025 5:35 pmThere's an OFX version of Mocha that works with Fusion, or you can use the standalone Mocha, and it should output masks and trackers to Fusion. There was a bug in the Fusion output at one point that was fixed and then crept back in later, so I'm not 100% confident that it always works right.

Yep I have Mocha standalone and OFX... I prefer this latter but I've been using the Fusion regular planar tracker a lot to force myself using default tools, so I go to Mocha only for difficult clips now, and also for any powermesh jobs...
I like the ability of selecting different solid parallax panels/walls
And yes, you must set the reference time before staring the tracking
