I have trouble discerning between the good twin and the evil twin.

I've noticed in anime movies when they are showing someone running from the waist up only and the character is against a panning background, they will jostle the body forward and backward as if that were the running motion happening. That may be where the idea of he stopping and starting motion is coming from, but that is a limited animation convention that doesn't really translate to more 3D representations.

I'll note that real walkers, jogger and runners have a very consistent forward speed of the hips. It is not slowing down and speeding back up with every step. It's not possible to run or jog like that and people who walk like that have some significant mobility problem. Check out this reference footage http://www.hash.com/forums/index.php?s=&am...st&p=376617 What little variation there is in the forward progress of the hips is probably due to the hip marker being on the outside edge of the hip rather than in the actual center. The marker is catching the rotation on the axis of the spine as the legs sweep forward and back.

The reality of market forces in the media in the US (and apparently everywhere else) is that it seems to create fewer choices rather than more as the businesses are consolidated under fewer owners. The cost of setting up yet another internet provider that can somehow operate without the backbone of an ATT or a Comcast is so high that it won't happen. Remember that the phone companies and cable companies that carry the internet got their pervasive scope to be in almost every home because local and national government granted them protected monopoly status. They didn't want the free market operating when they were building it all but now that it's so big that no one else can step in to compete they say they want the free market. How convenient!

Recent US court ruling in favor of ISP allowing them to favor some traffic and disadvantage other. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/01/14/n..._n_4597831.html I don't know where an independent presence like Hash, Inc would fall on the favored/disadvantaged line. I'm going to guess that Youtube might go into the disadvantaged hole unless Google starts paying ISPs to favor it.

A:M will really work best in cm. i don't think any of the plugins will use anything but cm.

this doesn't look like you are doing the zero and scale in the properties like in my video.

It's an odd run! I think the most missing element is that to get moving he would need to lean into it at the start of the run.

that is loading into your photoshop differently than it loads into mine. When I load that targa i get just green and white in the RGB channels plus an alpha channel with the smiley face in it. No transparency in the working space like yours shows. Rodney mentioned a plugin to make it revert to the old behavior. have you tried that? And... you can't save to .PNG? PNG is available in v16. It should be importable.

I got my third place $50 gift credit today. Thanks, Jason, Thanks Hash, Inc. and thanks to all the members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and everyone else who voted for fruitcake!

I'd say make a screen cam of it happening and make an A:M report of it. I just get a regular zero when I type a zero, but since you are not... document that and show that it's a real thing and then there's some place for someone to start on figuring out what is wrong. What if you enter 0.0? What if you copy a zero from another field and paste it in? Have you done Reset All Settings?

I doubt that is true anymore. The CPUs are quite different now and A:M is coded to take advantage of them now. On a straight comparison of equal CPU speeds the intels are doing better. Making a cost/benefit comparison is a bit more complicated.

hmmm... what version are you using?

This TGA file has an alpha channel. It has green and white in the visible channels and a happy face in the alpha channel. Tell me what loads in Photoshop. Resave it to a new targa and tell me what happens. TestFace.tga

Thank you, none-the-less, Rodney! It wasn't really lost but quite an old one. I had to watch it be sure what was in it.

I'll also note that if you have created a Photoshop image with transparency (you can see the checkerboard background), saving to PNG will properly translate that into an alpha channel. However i use TGAs because PNGs seem to have some crazy gamma adjustment inside them.

Hi, Gilbert! I had to re-scan the whole fracas again, myself. Yes, a fix for the Mavericks problem was found and the current installers will install an A:M that runs on Mavericks. Note that the few odd interface issues mentioned above still apply.

He's lookin' tough! Good work!

Mighty Morphin' Thom!

That is fabulously looney, Mark.

Make a group of that spline. Set the group's pivot point to X=0 Scale the group to 0% on X That's the standard way to do that. Is that what you are doing?

Is it possible yours is a corrupted copy? I don't know why it wont' run. Some of the other Parallels runners will need to chime in here.

When you can show clear repeatable difference between v18a and any previous version that would make for a good AMReports report. Of course, you've already done the obvious things like updating drivers.
