I'll probably try both in the interests of gaining knowledge.
As always, Thank You Robcat.

I’m doing an animation for our local community theater. While Sir Nigel is narrating, Granny here will be slowly (like Tim Conway vs Harvey Corman) crossing the street with her walker and will enter the theater and go to the dressing room. (When she comes out she will be Lambrina.
I had to “Build” Granny and rigged her with the 2008 light rig. The Lock IK is ‘on’ on both hand and forearm bones (and attached to parent). Both hands are “Translate to” constrained to the ‘Walker” bone, but when I move the walker bone, the hands move with the walker but pull away from the forearms.
I have probably gone wrong in several different directions, but I’m clueless as to when and where. Would appreciate any help offered. Thanks, Myron

I'm making a fireworks mode. I'm not planning on animating it at first,although it would be very cool to do so.
There used to be a "Wizard" that pot a 'particle on a CP along a path, but i don't remember exactly what it was called, and I can/t seem to find it now. EDIT: EXTRUDE is the wizard, but it's not working the way it used to.
It just occurred to me that an exploding fireworks model may already exist somewhere.
Thanks in advance

I'll try to make the live answer time. It's 10 AM for me, PDT,l and I've been a musician for so long that it's difficult for me to get up before the crack of noon.

I have a video "Happy Birthday" Card save as a PNG sequence. I would like to add various names as the occasion calls for. I can make animated names. How do I add them to the generic birthday video?
Thanks
-
Thank you Rodney, that will save me some time.

Is Woot's Mom available anywhere?

How would one go about acquiring this CD? or at least the model?

Does anyone have a "Little Old Lady" type model that I can borrow-rent-buy? I need two versions:
1. A Tweety Bird's owner Granny type
2. A Mrs. Santa type
Perhaps we could make a "Model Swap"?
-
Rob, Here is the model I used.There is no material.I did it with Surface attributes. I welcome any suggestions for an improved Bottle.Standing Bottle and Cork.mdl
Here, have a glass of beer.Glass Of Beer.tif

The "Pinot Vista Tasting Lounge" where outr band has been playing every Wednesday (for 3 years) is giving us our own "Label".
Yamhil County, Oregon, has become a tourist destination due to the fact that it is now "Wine Country"
Now people can take home a souvenir. A bottle of "Twisted Knickers Private Reserve" Pinor Noir.
Here, have a bottle. . .

Thank You, Robcat,
Once again you come to the rescue like the Cavelry, full speed ahead, trumpets blaring.

In past models I have seen in a model's User Properties various Folders that contain Pose Sliders. Such as: Face. Or Hands, or Rig etc.
How do I do that, and how do I put various Pose sliders into it's respective folder?
-
Show off!

Rob, I imported your head model into my project just to see. I had to se-set settings, color etc. but it won't let me increase density above 100%.
leaving for gig. I'll check when I get back
-
Thanks. I've downlowded it. Today is gig day, so I won't be able study it till tomorrow.
Edit: I gave it a quick look. The shield: What? Why How? Which tutorial covers it?
-
I watched the tech talk video. Also found an old Matt Campbell PDF tute in my files. Could you possibly zip the above project for me to download for study? That's the hair I'm after.
(Or show screen shots of the Material and emitter settings)
-
Thanks again for your help, Rob.. I've gotten this far on the character.downladed the hair tech talk, but haven't been able to watch it yet. Got involved with expanding my Happy Birthday animation for one of our weekly fans..
-
There are already 4 patch groups: light left, dark left, light right, dark right.
How do you control the angle and intensity as to how it comes out uf the mesh?
-
The hair is kind of like this. Is there a tutorial on how to control the hair. How make it like this?
Robcat, as far as the live session goes, we are in different Time zones, and I've been a musician for 50 years.

I'm creating a new clothespin character in my Twisted Knickers series, and I'm having hair problrms. Her hair is parted in the center and hangs down mostly straight all the way around down passed her shoulders.
Here's what I'm getting:
How do I get from here to there?

Robcat suggested that I post these on the Forum. This conglomoration of musicians and I have been peforming at a local Wine tasting lounge every Wednesday for two years. This is a test animation. The Sax player has quit coming so I made a new "photo".
Our motto is "Don't get your knickers in a twist, have a glass of wine!" More animation to come.
-
I can't remember if I posted this or not. Sorry if it's redundant.
It's a WIP commercial for a friend of mine.

Walking Granny

It's another case of trying to take a "shortcut" and making the trip longer than it should have been.
Thanks for the help, it'sjustme, and Bobby. I appreciate it. Granny was never meant to be a "major" character and I was trying to make things quick and easy, which , of course, neither has happened. She just has one job, and that's to shuffle across the screen. I may give the 2001 rig a try
Robcat, I sent you a private message. at first it said that you couldn't recieve messages, but then it looked like it went through. Here's the gist; The computer that I do AM on is located differently and not on the interweb. I tried downloading the 2 TSM2 instructions from u-tube using Realplayer Download, but got a message that said RP cannot download from that page, which is unusual because it normally has no problem. Is there another way to get my hands on those two videos?
