  1. Sometimes when I'm animating, I'll have one bone not moving for a few seconds, then when I do move it for another frame, it's moving during the whole animation!!! Of course, I try to set it back in each frame where it's not supposed to move, and then everything starts wiggling like crazy because I'm not very precise. <_< I've heard of weights for cp's...is there some kind of "weight" like that for bones that will keep it in place while I don't want it to move?

    Thanks for whatever help you can give me!

  2. I'm working on a Mac so all the sound files I am able to make come in .mov or .m4v format or something to that extent. However, Animation Master only takes files in the .wav format, as you probably already know. How can I convert the files I have to the .wav format? Also, if possible I really don't want to pay for additional software to convert files. Thank you for whatever help you can give.

  3. Hi purplegirl,

    Can I ask did you embed your project before posting it here?

    I only ask as there are 5 Actions showing, presumably the Smartskins? but there is no rigged version of Thom for them to work with. There is a Model1 but that appears empty.

     

    With the faulty project open, go to; Project in the Menu bar and chose; 'Embed All' and then re-post the new embedded project. That will ensure everything that you were working with in the project is kept.

    Then I'm sure someone here can help.

    Well, about the model, I was trying to click on New action and I accidentally clicked on New model...I guess I never went back and deleted it. I tried out how the smartskins were working several times, so that's probably what you're seeing. I didn't delete those either. I don't think I embedded my project. Is that helpful?

     

    Here's the embedded project.

  4. Hi!

    I am on the exercise "can you say that" and I am having some trouble. I built the dope sheet and added the sound to the actor, but when I press play, I hear the words, but keekat's lips still don't move. The tutorial tells me that the lips should be moving.

    Thank you for your help!

  5. Help! I have two error messages I have researched and can't fix.

     

    1. When I open A:M I get the message "unable to load plug-in [/applications/animation master 16.0/textures/simbiont2.atx], -err-

     

    This one doesn't seem to cause any problem, but because I have another error (below) I thought I'd mention it.

     

    2. When I create a new dope sheet, I add a sentence then get the message "dictionary modified or index file missing. Recreating index file"

     

    This message takes me to a "locate file" dialog box, and at the bottom of the dialog I can see that it's expecting a *.i file.

     

    SOOOO, I can't make my characters talk!

     

    Btw, I have version 16.0b and I'm running OS X (Lion).
