this tutorial didnt work.

[Chrisjrtv]

thanks man

[ghostofsouls]

every time i do this i get to the last step them when i try to merge the bones to the simple shape it doesnt work. plz help.

[hir013]

What about collisions with other objects.

How to implement that?

i.e. hit a ball.

From other forums I have read that this was not even possible with previous versions of blender.

What options would I have to turn on on (In the example) the armature object or the ball to make collisions works?

Or is this not possible?

[13xzanezanex13]

its auto ik not idk

[StelarCF]

@13xzanezanex13  auto I don't know :P

[McScappy]

Couldnt you also have multiple parts like 1 2 3 instead ofm making a dvd

[McScappy]

I almost got it(means its a very good tutorial)

[StelarCF]

@McScappy So.... you mean....

*tries to press cancel, fails, tries backspace, fails*

[Akeisato]

Dude this is so cool. Thank you SO much.

[TheWaynelds]

lol why do you call it auto idk? Its auto IK which stands for auto Inverse Kinimatics, not auto I don't know hahaha

[BrentJRushby]

I enjoy watching your tutorials I have learnt soo much thank you

[IMJACKMADDEN]

Thanks. Took me a while to adjust to your tutorial in in 2.5 but I guess that's the only way to learn the new layout.

[MovieMakerNero7]

OMG SNAP FUNCTION!!!!!!! THIS MAKES SO MANY THINGS EASIER!

[GoldenGoGo1001]

i wanna rig a monkey :S

and i really don't know how to to rig using 1 armature :S

what do i do?

[goeiecool9999]

@GoldenGoGo1001 just use more armatures :-P

[goeiecool9999]

2:42 when i try this it moves the entire bone

[goeiecool9999]

@goeiecool9999 wait i was in object mode. sorry!!!

[MultiMegaSpeed]

thanks man your tutorials really help when i was begginer

[SingAdagioPrincess]

Thank you so much..lov you super3boy..you are not a nerd..you made the greatest tutorial EVER!

[RVKrisss]

Thank you!!! :)

[OutrunTheWolf]

oh yes. Thanks so much for tutorials super. They are concise, and easy to follow. Thanks man!

[neisco]

Dude's pretty cool. It's amazing to see someone that capable of doing this at such a young age. I'm still strugling with drawing a box.

[MrDrMIlk]

hey mate love the tutorial but It's IK not auto idk but anyway love the tutorial very helpfull

[flotch93]

Can somebody help me out? I have a Master Chief model, and I'm making an animation. Every time I move him, I also have to move the gun separately. Does anybody know of a way where I can keep the gun in his hand without having to move them separately?

[csavoy1]

@flotch93 parent the gun to his hand

[Deathasblood]

wow man im just starting to put up blender toutorials, i love modeling but i will never ever beat you super3boy oh and Pengasius14 i agree with you whoever thinks your a nerd is just jelous!

[MrDrMIlk]

IK not IDK

[Deathasblood]

lol yea

[MrDrMIlk]

hey thanks alot that really helped me watch my vids I have got a couple of vids on blender, 7 or 8 to be correct.

[Esuld]

1:30

[azhad1998]

THANKS !!!!!!!!

[kevorkohanes]

U talk to much man

[telene]

Just FYI... it's Auto IK, _not_ IDK. No "D" in there :) It stands for "inverse kinematics".

[123markiscool]

hey starts blender at 1.20

[JJengineering]

Awesome

Keep the good work up

[OCoptimusconvoy]

how do u go to pose mode in the latest version?

[Capmangogo]

super3boy i need help i try this in the latest version of blender it dosn't work

[ananasjazzaren]

@Capmangogo He is in wire frame mode. change to that and it will work.

[nexusmaximus1k]

dude idk is a text term that clearly says IK unless you did that on purpose i just thought you should know

P.S. IDK means I don't know

[bjwnavigator]

I'm trying to use this as a reference for 2.5.2. It actually works! I had to tweak a few things though! Work on one for 2.5.

[OCoptimusconvoy]

@bjwnavigator how do u get it to pose mode?

[rockoutdudepro]

Usualy Armature is very simple but this tutorial makes it look complex trust me irs easy

[EvilAlligator]

When I click Apply for Modifiers, I get an error message saying:

Modifier is disabled or returned error, skipping apply

How do I fix this??

[deaconsmith1]

@jamesroks42

make sure it is in edit mode! i had the same problem and just started pushing buttons, but edit mode is the magic button

[JakandDaxterGlitches]

@deaconsmith1 thank you!

[Schadow74]

@HENTAI125 just select the fist bone and then the other bone (with shift + right click) and press

Ctr + P and select connect

(or u just make the hole body with only one armature-system) XDD

[Azenquor]

thank you... element assimilated!

[HENTAI125]

how do you connect the armatures? i mean, if you make an arm, then the body, then connecting them?

[blackninjamonkey1]

The suggestion was for IIIIIsp1d3rIIIII by the way. Oh, and for u Super3boy, can you do this with a character made of metaballs? just wondering.

[Dramen93]

You may have to hit the tab button to get it working properly.

[lllllsp1d3rlllll]

what i want to know is how do u rigg it so u can use the motion in game play for fps

[blackninjamonkey1]

Hi, just a suggestion: create the arm or whatever you want to move (with armature etc.), then you need to go into the action editor and create the action you want to happen (eg. reload). After, go into the logic tab and select sensor, controller, actuator( i hope you know about the logic tab for this bit) Choose the key and join them up like usual... however. on actuator click motion and change it to action. fiddle wit the frame start/stop and click flipper instead of play. hope this helped!

[mysoulstudos]

can you make a tutorial on makeing a human and riging it and putting a seklyton in it?

[aajsmit]

uh..doesnt it say auto IK not IDK? maybe its just a habit for you...great tutorial anyway

[HyperMetal101]

i don't get it...I do everything exactly, and yet when i move the armatures, the box deforms weird

[MrBlenderMan]

@HyperMetal101

me too...it's got to do with the new version probably...blender changes so much with updates...

[NCWolf37]

When i try to9 make it the parent it says :ERROR LOOP IN PARENT... any thoughts?

[WJC1981]

Once I add the armature the option to select the cube disappears does thsi work in newer versions of Blender

[NNB30]

Many tnx u hv helped me a lot as a beginner.

[csavoy1]

IT REALLY WORKS!!!!!

Great job man.

[7TimeToShine7]

when i add my armature, it doesnt do the same thing that is shown in the video. i move the whole thing. not just the end of it. any thoughts?

[7TimeToShine7]

i was in object mode. not edit mode,

[Pengasius14]

hey

i got a problem: i cannot make parent between object and my character's skeleton

blender alway tell me "loop in parent"

somebody can help?

[kilercho]

2:09 what is make that

[jorgeerosa]

Well done! Thanks for the great tutorial!

[EricTheHax]

If this guy were a nerd he'd actually say Auto IK, NOT IDK! srsly, its frickin annoying calling it that while reading it! my head hurts!

[fataxel]

told u, because sio2 must use ONLY blender made animations and stuff...it sucks

[zinggblip]

thx man :)

[Pengasius14]

EVRYONE WHO SAY THIS GUY IS NERD,

SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!!!

dude i like this tutorial! thanks alot!!

[elfmagicia]

,

Elf

[MrDrMIlk]

@Pengasius14 LOL I agree he's really helpfull do u have any vids ?

[Pengasius14]

@MrDrMIlk

i'm starting to make some tutorial on blender 2.49b too :) (just started)

i only did the costom bump mapping(with your own bump map texture created with another program) and tansparency texture mesh( to make some kind of Decals)

well, hope you will enjoy them, like you (and i) enjoy super3boy's tut still ;)

[SmilingDepression]

@Pengasius14 never

[hyperdragon957]

[shukfahid]

good tut. very clear.

[Paratroper09]

NEEERRRDDDDD _|_

[BritishTwits]

Hey u dont have to watch the video retard

[fataxel]

oh,but i do have to watch the video"retard",because i happen to work in game industry,and i wanted to get a look at blender SO TO DO SOME RIGGING IN THIS PIECE OF SHIT-OF A PROGRAM,FOR ME TO EXPORT IN SIO2 FOR AN iPHONE GAME BUT THIS FUCKIN' NERD SUX Btw,blender is nowhere near the awesoeness of 3ds

max

[epicfailegamer]

then go use 3ds max if u dont like blender i dont see why your trying to learn how to use it seems rather pointless

[NitroBulletsPro]

how come when you put it back to textured or solid you can see the armatures???

[waynestephens]

@NitroBulletsPro

dunno if youve figured this out or not yet, but when your selecting the Armature if you select Xray in the editing options at the bottom of your 3D screen, itll make it so you can see all your Armature-ing (o.O) so make sure its deselected if you want them to remain hidden ^^

[LeFrigoEstEnFeu]

at 2:41 you press 'g' to move stretch the armature to the blue line. When i tried this the whole armature just moved as one to the blue line. Help plz!!

[jimjamjahar]

You have to press Tab to go into edit mode

[BritishTwits]

ya me too, im using 248.1

[mendelievium]

definitely best tutorial vid on youtube - thanks soooo much!!!

[cahman44]

why do you need to subdivide the rectangle?

[cahman44]

when i was finished i went back into object mode and i could see the armatures through the rectangle, is this normal?

[cahman44]

disregard that last comment, i understand now, thanks

[cahman44]

hi, nice tutorial. i hav 1 qeustion: at 2:41 you press 'g' to move stretch the armature to the blue line. When i tried this the whole armature just moved as one to the blue line. Help plz!!

Thanks

[Venaloid]

Mine seems to have only selected the faces at the ends as being in the vertex group (or something like that) because when I go into pose mode at the end only those faces move and the rendered object looks completely messed up with the planes going every whichway, what could I have possibly done wrong 3 times in a row following this video?

[mrjynx23]

I have the same problem, did you find a cure?

[Dinobot2468]

thanx i can see what ur doing better than thise annoying ones with just music and low quality and sped up

[13Guitarsmasher13]

=]]]

[perferstrategy]

ur right.Some people have bad quality mics, too quiet and mumble their words.super3boys rocks

[infantryrocks]

Press "Z" to go to wireframe mode.

[Nigelius]

Pretty good tutorial, may watch a few more, hopefully these tuts will help me transition from Anim8or to Blender better

[DerDiclonius1994]

tanks man ^^ my english is bad but i all understant i see a german tutorial (im german) and i dont understent how use ur tutorial ist best ma n realy super

[FalconPunchTheFail]

1:20 =)

Nice tutorials so far man, I've learnt a lot. I wish you'd talk about all the nystic stuff at the end though :(

[danielkirk1]

Why... What does it matter when he plugs his site in the video? I like it better this way actually, it feels more out of the way when he gets it over with at the start.

[FalconPunchTheFail]

Well, I think it'd be better to jump straight into the tutorial... still, personal preference. Everyone's different.

The reason I put the time there is because on every other video they just complain about the time he spends talking about nystic. This way, they won't (hopefully).

[arbiter410]

Yay U don't suck in this one it actually turned out pretty well good job just now join blender artist instead of nystic...

[IvoryBell]

maybe he's not the one who sucks..just saying.

(he's using an older version of blender, btw)

[tornofthe45]

mines tweaked out

[Dragonislander]

hey the E button won't extrude how do I do it manually?

[TomboFry]

Are you in edit mode?

[Dragonislander]

I forgot cause I have the new one and he doesn't :| it's kinda funny :)

[davidatbass]

you must be in edit mode, press "mesh->extrude"

[IvoryBell]

hit tab and then E. I had the same problem, it's a matter of how it's selected.

[Dooblestudios]

Very very helpful thanks so much 5*

[fussbald]

How can you make the Auto IK for only some of the bones, so you only get the "arm looking moves", on some of the bones, while others will moves the other way.

like when you make a character, and you want the Auto IK on arms, and then the other kind of moves in the chest?

[DaVietPride]

too much ads

[NakedCreep]

Auto IK

[jtmjtm2001]

Thank you.

[HotSetMovies]

hey man, i am new to blender and I dunno if it's just me being stupid, but blender won't let me re-select my model when i go to edit view

(basically what you did at 4:47)

I've tried selecting the vertices with B and all that but it just selects the model in general. is there something ovbious I missed?

[pinkytm1]

Not sure if this has been answered(I had the same problem). But he just selected the rectangle in Object mode(and made the lines turn pink) and he hit Tab and went into edit mode(which he did not mention). Thats when the entire rectangle became pinkish(and he moved the video so you could see he was in fact in edit mode).

[Razingozalidahna]

It starts at 1:20

[kiychane01]

i got a question

how do i add this in to a game

plz message me on how to do it PLZ PLZ PLZ

[RoyBruno777]

you must import

[shadow742007]

this tutorial screwed up my masterchief model!!! >=[

[RoyBruno777]

your an idiot must have more verticys

[seekertosecrets]

That is why you must make a seperate copy on your computer before you contiunue. You did make a seperate copy of Master Chief, right?

[TheRedComa]

Auto IK - inverse kinematics. What is "Auto IDK"? Auto I Don't Know, hahaha

[rocknroll852]

Dude i tried selecting bu it didnt select like you did

[adamnew123456]

Then you have a different version. I don't know if he has 2.48a yet. Or even better, 2.49.

[pigmydmm]

super3boy Nice video it works well

thanks

pigmydmm

[dvds4ever]

Wow thanks a lot!

[NOAHNXT28]

When i hit G and made it strech at 2:43 and it just moved the enitr ething HELP!!!!

[Rioboy07]

the enitr ething? lol the funny thing is I actually understood that HAHA!!

But anyway you have to be in Edit mode =) to do that ;-)

Hope this helps!!

[microblan]

Just make it bigger by using the "S" key, and then move it by using the "G" key to the center of the rectangle.

[adobemoviemaker]

you have to be in edit mode to extrude it

[Rayormy]

my leg won't bend, it just rotates and the armature comes out of the model, not sure what I did wrong. I had more than two armatures though.

[MangaArtRay]

Maybe you did the parenting wrong ?

[Obliviboy12]

3:55 chicken wing!! XD

[SonicSpeed512]

when i press control + b It says physic baking. can you help, please?

[guitarmasta96]

ur suppose to press control p - then click armature - then name groups. then the rest will work. hope that helps

[rwmtiger]

i got it to work with a weird bug. when i move my body. the arm float off the body. (o,O)

[comidachinahuskys2]

did you parent them?

[rwmtiger]

it ok. i found out why. some how the bone become part of cam and light. :) it fix now. now i just got get img on thing right :)

[cmcintyr7779]

Auto IK not Auto IDK

[kerog6]

how do you make it bend on only one axis, so if its an elbow it doesnt go backwards or side ways

[SpruntheusAdmin]

Very well explained, helped me understand Armature basics.

[xXMxExGxAxDxExTxHXx]

what do you do? when i press g, it grabs the whole armature, its not connected to anything and its pissing me off

[HeapsGoodProductions]

This happened to me, but I just figured it out =D

Press tab, you're probably not in edit mode

[poopymouth171]

me too. ur tutorial needs to be more explanatory to problems

[FlippytheMasterofPie]

Go to edit mode and try it.

[lazerlemon2]

man if you watch his first then 30 its like a different person. and great videos if you give them a chance.

[THkaas]

what do the x axis mirror and xray options do?

[blueeyedkid]

when i extrude the armature, blender creates a whole nother bone and joint, and it is not linked to the original bone at all...help?

[swetrich]

auto ik not idk

[CloneThire]

Thank you , this is the first Tutorial with IK that i do understand :D

[Kaysje]

WOW! I just scrolled down the list of your tutorials and found out how much your voice has changed :O. Jeez :p

[kkcooly]

[Grishnahk4]

[drako1020]

[danielOconahap]

[danthemango]

I think this video is so clear that somebody that knows nothing about blender could do it. Assuming they know how to push pause.

[mrledfeb]
