RG Mojo in FCPX and Motion5

Hi, upgraded my Mojo this morning and saw the presets are gone. To get round it I opened up in FCP7 and applied them one by one and took screen grabs of the settings.
Open Mojo in Motion 5, update the defaults via the inspector >Save as>rename and create a new folder for them all to live in. When done navigate down (in the finder) to the effects folders and shove them all into the 'locked' Mojo folder. Voila:)

Hope this helps someone

Cheers

Hi Lee,

I've just bought Mojo for FCPX and was disappointed not to find the presets.

I know you've put in some work into it, but would you be so kind as to post those converted presets?

I don't own FPC7, so I can't do it myself.

Don't know if I'd be allowed to do that, but I can post up the screen grabs later. It only takes 5 minutes to rebuild Stu m's preset settings. Cheers:)

Hi Lee,

Please post up the screen grabs and some instructions on how to create the presets.

I'm fluent with FCPX but have virtually no experience with Motion.

Thank you!

here are the screen grabs. The changes are made in the inspector within Motion, then hit save as, then yadda yadda:)

Thank you Lee!

I'll let you know how it goes.

Can you go into a little more detail about how to access the 'locked' folder? I wondered myself where Mojo put the files because it doesn't appear to install anything in the movies/motion templates/effects folder - i'm guessing it's a hidden folder or something?

Thanks for all your great work btw

Hi, once in motion 5, open the Magic Bullet Mojo from the Project Browser>Navigate to the Inspector, make the changes>then, File>Save as>Give the template a name that makes sense, in the Category field create a new one called 'my mojo' or something else sensible>then hit Publish.
Once you have done them all in this way (saving them all into the new Category folder you created),>quit Motion 5 and in the Finder go to Motion Templates>Effects>open the Category folder you created and simply drag the folders inside that new category folder, into the Main Magic Bullet Mojo folder. You can do a simple drag and drop within the finder but from within Motion itself the folder is flagged as locked.

Thats about it:)
