Create a movie not displaying static meshes

Notes

Im having a bit of a problem...When I "create a movie" within Matinee the avi that's create only shows the sky/clouds...my static meshes aren't being captured as well....
here's my matinee set-up

thanks all

Notes

forgot to mention that the mesh isn't rotating but the camera is object that's moving/rotating

so...are you trying to move static meshes? If so, you don't have them plugged into any movement track of their own.

If you're just trying to move the camera(which is what it sounds like, but I can't quite tell), show us all the curves for it in the curveeditor (top panel). Right now only the Blue/Z channel is showing, and it shows that you haven't done anything to the actual keyframes yet. (To edit a keyframe, create it, then select it, THEN either adjust the position of things in the viewport or use the curve editor)

Notes

Yeah the static meshes aren't moving just the camera...it plays fine in game and matinee...but when I hit the 'create movie' it only renders the clouds

here's the full shot



and this is all that's rendering in the movie

Hm.. that's a bizarre one! The track and matinee look good then... Could the meshes be in a different sublevel that doesn't get properly loaded at runtime?

Notes

Ok I've finally figured it out...I didnt have the packages in the UDK folder. The UDK files had to be in the autosaves folder while the UPK had to be in the Content folder. Rendered fine afterwards...thanks for pointing me in the right direction blankslatejoe
