Mine Cart Animation in Blender

A quick animation I did following a tutorial from BlenderNation. Was pretty easy to do in about a half an hour. (This video loops, by the way--audio + video)

Sorry for the lame textures and sounds, just threw it together as an experiment.

Using blender 2.49.

Minecraft! ;3

jerk around the camera a bit and the wood looks a bit too shiny and smooth and the metal needs texture.

Ich dachte das wär ein Minecraft Video o.O

[MikeslyMontague]

Why the heck did this appear as a new video!! (btw noice)

[dannycollinge08]

nice work although the texturing of the wooden beam needed some work u could also they to change the shape of them a little ,as each support beam varies in height and appearance but overall it has the beginnings of a great animation (Y)

Nice work!

no don't make it smooth, the ride is never smooth underground.

[gishgos]

how'd you make the camera move slow?

[threadedinsanity]

yeah, that was a problem i had. i realize now how to fix it it...youll notice that its quite smooth at the beginning of the video and later on its jumpy. thats because i did the later stuff after i had modeled everything and i didnt use enough points on the path.

i used dupliframes to make the rails/shorings go on the path. then decreased the frequency to get it just right.

[accuratesheep]

well done at all, but try to make the paths (it were paths, right?) more smooth. how could you make the rails and shorings follow the path?
