[iJerseyDevil]

Hey, I'm trying to make a Pac man animation, but when I move the skeleton in the sequence editor, it won't move his mouth. I tried skinning, but it didn't work. Can you help? Thanks.

[grimview]

@iJerseyDevil with skinning you need to get all the points inside the bubble.

[Julzso23]

How come it won't let me add my object?

[grimview]

@Julzso23 you add an object to a figure by first selecting a bone, then click Build - add object

[zsakker]

[freeFeild]

What is our scroll wheel is jammed?

[MsRedman122]

it dont work the bones dose not move in sequence i check the no limits but theres nothing wrong what i will do

[MrSoccaable]

when I try to make many bones move at once in one frame the previous frames change to what I did in that frame

[grimview]

@MrSoccaable You need to either click the key button, so it will record each movement on that key frame or 2click the frame to add a key frame. The key turns green in record mode. You also need to wiggle the bone to record its start frame.

[Mrwoodranger]

I need help. I cant move the "stick " in the Sequence. And there is not the "timeline" can you help me?

[julienmauricemort]

in GTT (gateway to technology) in 8th we had VERY expensive autodesk software that could animate. you would need far more better graphics cards

[Simstyle12]

[charizardsspirit]

im taking a course on this software

[charizardsspirit]

choose setting scene, then insert the frames you want

[grashopper1991]

I got an object and bones in the Figure mode, how do I get them to work together? Can only move the bones atm.

[charizardsspirit]

give them a range of motion, then make a sequence, and then go to scene and add the sequences and figures.

[vstman]

Please next time tell with your voice how you do this stuff. Tutorials with music ain't worth watching for people who has limited sight capacity. 2/5.

[Slick12298]

howd you make it move?

[charizardsspirit]

give it a range of motion by double clicking it and setting its X, Y, and Z angle values.. (for me i set them unlimited) then go to sequence mode and move them .... according to the frames..

[blaky039]

[cheeerry1456]

This tutorial really help me out

im making lots of figures and scenes,

adampostjr you need to make the object first. Like

touch1a did it, then you need bone to select object on 0:10 with this bone you simple click ¨m¨ and move the object into bone then click the bone and try to move.

if don t work to fast doble click bone and lock x free then it must work.

Hope is helpfull!

[XDarknessX2]

[touch1a]

[adampostjr]

[comidachinahuskys2]

[xXAngelChocoBunnyXx]

[ajax9719]

[biribiroudi]

[scr3amjack]

well. do you really use the SCROLL WHEEL? I tried and it doesn't work. What else could i use?

[AnonymousProgrammer]

O M FG, you make a tutorial but you don't show us how to do the bones and stuff? HOW HELPFUL IS THAT, IVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR LIKE A WEEK AND IM NOT GOOD WITH 3D ANIMATIONS...

[touch1a]

Actually it is not a tutorial. A youtube friend asked me because he stuck in his problem, then I post this specific answer as a response.

Sorry if I misinform you guys.

[AnonymousProgrammer]

Well could you make a tutorial on how to add bones and stuff? i would really appreciate that =)

[touch1a]

I will

[SonyShots]

I will admit,I am Trying to Run before I can walk.

BUT.

Do You have any Link, Videos or other for COMPLETE Beginners ,Only I have just downloaded Anim8or ,managed to figure out how to make a simple shape ,coloured it and now I want to bring it to life.

I will be happy even if it Pivots 1/2 a turn.

☺

[jamesturnbull10]

oo thanks, suppose it's quicker than me looking for it manulay :)

[BoogsterSU]

I mostly want to make a model out of Google SketchUp, export it to 3ds Max, then import that model to Anim8or, and start animating.

[Skratsalot]

this is pretty good 3 1/2 stars

[PanicAtTheDiscoShojo]

I don't have a scroll wheel button ._. Is that why mine won't move?

[touch1a]

(on front view, if you're trying to move the bone on z axis.)

First double click the bone,

then the dialog box (bone parameters ) should pop up.

after that, you must lock the x-axis on joint limits.

then move it with left mouse button,

Send me a comment if this will work

[PanicAtTheDiscoShojo]

It won't work...

[TheShockResist]

@touch1a i doesnt work also!! make a video of this then send to me ok?

[Tofalidi]

I can't move the bones when in sequence...is there anything you can tell me about it??...maybe it's just me since i'm a bit noobish in anim8or but i tried and couldn't make it..

[Tazy50]

you have to set bone limits.....read the Manual>Figure in the Anim8or page

[mike5424]

how do i get a object to become a figure?

[o7uk]

Lol how can u make a figure? i save stuff, but it says: you have no figures. or sumthin... HALP

[sexykeenan]

HOW DO YOU get your finished object into figure and sequence?????

[touch1a]

go to mode > sequence

then click to Settings > sequence...

On the figure.... choose your figure that you want to animate... : )

[LilJayz2]

I love Anim8tor. Its so Simple to use! Good for Advanced and Begginers =3.

[terrornamer7]

how do i make it a figure?

[Chonch95]

Mine won't move in the sequence editor!

[touch1a]

OK, you can move it depends on the view. Mouse1 =x axis mouse2=y axis mouse3(Scroll button)=Z axis. Move it from the bone.

[RooneyAnimations]

I can't move mine to some positions. It simply will not go in some directions

[ace1of1faces]

dude, if u have the wheel, then double click on which bone u like and cross out yxz. then corss out all the no limits. then drag usin the scroll wheel...

[Tazy50]

i have a question.. where did you get that visual style theme?

[Tazy50]

Thanks im subscrining!!!!

[Tazy50]

Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Subscribing!
