Thanks!

[Lightlist & Shadow]

Is it possible to have a light in a lightlist so that the light itself only affect one model, but still have that model cast a shadow on other objects? How would I do this?

That solved the problem!

Thanks for the replies!

[No skeletal or muscle mode in Choreography]

Sure! This is one of the models that is affected by this. Even if I import it into a new project I still have the same problem.

 

PG_Model.mdl

[No skeletal or muscle mode in Choreography]

I find this rather strange. I opened up a few projects when I noticed that I couldn't enter skeletal mode or muscle mode for a couple of characters in a choreography. The buttons are greyed out. If I open the model in an action it works fine. I've just got a new computer (with Windows 7) and a new subscription for AM but I haven't used AM for a few months so I don't know if this problem appeared before or after the switch.

 

Note that this doesn't happen to every model but so far I've noticed this in at least 2 projects.

Does anybody know what might be going on here?

 

[Translate to / Orient Like Enforcement & Pose Slider]

I've made a pose slider with Translate to and Orient Like constraints. I want the enforcements of these constraints to have the same setting as the pose slider. I've set keyes for the enforcements at 0 and 100, but when I move the slider away from 100% the enforcement settings changes instanlty from 100% to 0%. How do I make the enforcements match the slider setting?

 

good question!

 

change the "curve" for enforcement from "hold" interpolation to "linear"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There's a way to copy and paste values form 100% to 0 but I dont' recall it. You can Edit offset curves manually by sliding the CPs at 0% to match the level at 100%

 

 

(the red green blue icon at the bottom of the PWS switches it to curve view.)

 

Thanks! That did it!

This has been driving me crazy.

[can't grab all cp's]

Check if mirror mode is on. If it is, turn it off.

[Character loses his arms]

I'm making a walk cykle and I'm trying to copy the first keyframe to the last, but it doesn't really matter with keyframe I paste because it happens anyway.

This didn't happen when I started working on the action.

If I create a new action, copying and paste keyframes works as it should, so

it's hard to predict when this happens.

This is my first character, so I might have done something wrong while modelling or rigging it.

[Character loses his arms]

This happens to my character's arms when I try to paste a keyframe.

 

No Arms!

 

I've also seen it happen when I turn on IK Arms Setup.

At first I suspected it was something wrong with the smartskin but it happens even if I remove it.

I'm using the 2001 Skeleton Rig and I use A:M version 10.5r

What could be the problem?

[A couple of questions.]

Great! The pose sliders are gone and the eye target now works! Thanks!

[A couple of questions.]

I have a couple of questions.

 

 

1. Deleting Pose Sliders

 

I have two pose sliders that I added by mistake, but I can't figure out how to delete them. How do I do this?

 

 

2. Eye Target

 

Do I have to assign the "aim at" constraint on the eye bones every time I load the character into an action or a choreography or is the a way to do this once and for all.
