    Fluids, Streaks, ect.. not working

    in New Users

    Posted

    Hi - I have to create a "rain" situation for a project I am doing and downloaded a couple of different project files from the forum and I can get any of them to work. For example I download

     

    http://www.hash.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=29163

     

    and I have the chor open and scroll over the timeline and getting nothing. I have played w/ this project file before and it worked fine. Do I not have something turned "ON"? Any help would be great. I dont' know if it matters, but I recently updated to V15f I think it is.

     

    Thanks - E

    Breaking an object apart

    Hi John - thanks for the link - nice job blowing snoopy up. ;-) I download it, and picking apart the chor. I notice you have in Plug-in properties "Newton Dynamics" turned on - Use as "Dynamic Object". What am I missing - how do you apply that to the model? Thanks for all your help - Eric

    Thanks guys - I downloaded the "Explode Rebuildmodel" plug-in and searched the forum, but like HomeSlice coulnt' find directions on how to use Newton Dynamics to make it break. I found an earler posting from you John

     

    "you right click the model and choose the plugin wizard explode rebuild then depending on the model and settings it can take some time to setup and build the exploding model then set as a dynamic exploding model in newton...be sure at least ground is static then simulate newton"

     

    How do I "then set as a dynamic exploding model in newton..."?

     

    I am guessing bring the "exploding" model into a chor and under the properties

     

    - Newton Dynamics

    - use in simulation "on"

    - use as "Dynamic Breakable Explodeobject"

     

    Then I don't know what to do... ;-)

     

    Thanks,

    Eric

    Hi - about a year ago I saw something on the forum where something was applied to an object and it realistically broke into pieces? Does anyone know what I am talking about, that can refresh my memory? Thanks - E

    Low Res View?

    in New Users

    Posted

    Hello - I am almost too embarrassed to ask this question since I have been working with this program so long, but here goes - I think I hit some key on the keyboard and the models look like they are all in low res (image below) I have never had this happen, and I didn't know you could switch it to low res - can anyone please tell me what key I hit to get this view? Thanks - Eric

    Rain Effect

    in New Users

    Posted

    Hello - I have a project (cartoonish - not realistic) that I have a cloud that I need to have rain coming out of it raining on a character - then have an umbrella come into the scene and block the rain. Does anyone have samples of rain that they have done w/ fluids that they could post a link to? It's cartoonish, so the rain drops could be pretty big. Thanks for any suggestions - Eric

    Odd Hips Bouncing Issue

    in A:M Rigging

    Posted

    Hello - I am creating a character for a client, which I actually cannot show, so hopefully this makes sense to someone. I created him, added a rig, did the smartskinning and pulled the character into a choreograph. When I select the hip bone and move the character up and down (bending knees) it has an odd movement - the lower body seems to sit there, while the upper body moves down and goes into the mess of the lower body - kind of a delayed reaction (when I render it, it dows the same thing). When I select the hip bone and move it up and down in a chor or an action, the body almost acts like a soft rubber ball - stretching and squashing... this issue has never happened to me - hopefully I am not the only one that has run into this... it's very weird - I swear this isn't in my head and I haven't been smoking anything. ;-)

     

    Thanks for any help or suggestions - Eric

    Crown Moulding Installation Animation

    in Work In Progress / Sweatbox

    Posted

    Hello - just finished up a 12 1/2 minutes long Crown Moulding installation video. It came out pretty good - it was pretty technical because I had to create a tape measure with accurate measurement througout the room, drill screws in, cut the moulding on a saw, apply spacking and sand it off. It was fun, but seemed to go on forever. ;-) Anyway, it's on my site if anyone wants to take a look at it - www.flashanimationwebsitedesign.com - on the lower middle section - "2D and 3D Flash Demonstrations. It's button "06" - 6th sample on the row. - Eric

    Glow to an object as a Pose Slider

    in New Users

    Posted

    I set up an object to "glow" as a pose slider from 0 to 100% but it seems to only work as 0 or 100% nothing inbetween. I know the setting is either off or on - but I thought I would give it a try. I am trying to make a tooth glow - up and down to make it look like it is pulsating showing pain. Any ideas if the glow thing isn't possible would be great. I suppose I could just do glow "off" "on" "off" "on" etc., but I wanted to fade it off and one. Anyway - thanks. - Eric

    License has expired (-3)

    Thank you Martin. ;-) This worked perfect - it is from the admin from Martin's link above.

     

    "You won't need to uninstall, just delete the .lic file located in your master folder. It will most likely be named master0.lic

    You can verify your expiration date by examining the contents of the file. If you have not yet expired you can also see this info in the "About Box" of Animation:Master.

    As stated in the threads above, just purchase a new "Subscription" from the web store and use the new activation code after you have removed your old .lic file.

    (Vista users may need to do the following to access the file)

    Browse to your Master folder using the explorer/file browser, and select the "Compatiblity Files" button in the tool bar. Vista places these "generated" files in a safe jail area and normally appear hidden"

     

    Thanks,

    Eric
