Good to see you here again, Matt. You know... there hasn't been a "Pass the Ball" project around here in quite a while...

Hey, that seems to work well. I put one of my old all-vector (no video) SWFs into it and it played back just right present.swf

Hi Gary, If you mean actual dynamic constraints on bones I think you will need to turn off the pose(s) in the model(s) that implement(s) the dynamic constraints. If you need to scrub AND see dynamic action you can BAKE Dynamics. This will bake them in for the length of the Chor Blue Bar. If you mean particles and hair, SHIFT-8 will toggle particles ON/OFF You can also add the button to any tool bar by dragging it from the Customize window to a tool bar. If you should need to scrub AND see particles you can BAKE them also. This will bake them in for the length of the Chor Blue Bar.

Well, nevermind, my player doesn't work anymore either. It may be hopeless

Hmmm. I wonder how i have it then, since I haven't installed Flash. Does your dir look like this?

Hi Glenn, I have used SWF File Player to display a SWF and then I captured that with screen capture software to make a video of it. I have done that to convert old TechTalks to MP4

Here, @johnl3d, I fixed it! Burp.mp4

That looks fabulous, Michael! That is Pixar-level food depiction, and Homer looks good too! I especially like the A:M credit.

Also... can we see this hand in lighting in the chor instead of in the model window?

Just to try, just to see what happens, we're certain to be disappointed afterward but... try switching the decal type from bump to displacement.

Are all the normals facing the same way (out)?

Mmmm! It looks good enough to eat. I'm eager to see what comes next! I have sometimes thought "Food and Drink" would be a fun contest topic but I'm not sure we'd get many entries.

He's got his wing suit on!
