I have been searching for Barry Zundel's legendary tutorials online without any success. So I sent him an email, and marvelously, he has uploaded all of them to Youtube. If you search his name you will find them straight away. regards Mike

Rob, I did just have a look at some of your cloth tests. How hard was it to achieve? regards Mike

Thanks Rob, I thought maybe there would be a graph of the cp xyz position as it is driven by the bone. I have been doing quite a bit of research on the best way to use the smartskin for sleeve folds. Unfortunately the spline interpolation causes the to and fro motion of the points that defeats the purpose of the smartskin feature. Being able to choose linear interpolation would certainly be of benefit. I did have a look in the project file on a text editor to try and see if there was some sort of reference to the interpolation method for the smartskin. Since I didn't write AM it was a pretty lame, sad and pointless 10 minutes. regards Mike

Also, I would like to change the default smartskin interpolation from spline to linear. Is there a way to do this? All help is most appreciated. regards Mike

Hi Rodney, Thanks for your help. I have no problem seeing the information in the graph editor if I animate a cp in muscle mode for example. But once I get into smartskin I can't see any graph information. I have attached a screenshot.

Hi, It is funny how I always come back to AM, even with a few years break, for the simple pleasure of animating. Nothing beats its simplicity. I am using version 18.0p on Win 10. When I do a smartskin I would like to be able to track the movements of individual cp's in the graph window. That way, if there is an odd jerky movement of a cp i could smooth it out. But I can't see any way of bringing them up in the graph window. Is it possible? Kind regards Mike Logan
