Rob- Thanks for making a bug report!! Onwards with the best 3D software package out there in terms of bang for the buck! Tom

Hello Hashers- I was playing with the latest version of AM 19.5 E and I loaded a simple 10 frame avi into an action window to test whether or not I could advance the video one frame at a time...and it didn't work at all. I tried the same procedure in v19.0 and it worked fine. Has anyone else had trouble loading an avi video into v19.5E and been thwarted? Attached is a bare Project file and the simple 10 frame video I was trying to use. Thanks for any insights! Tom MovieTest.avi RotoTest.prj

Well done!

Hello- I just rendered the model in v19.0 and it rendered fine as both a line drawing and a regular solid. Don't know if that helps but Rob might have more insights... Tom

nice...

Interesting!

Hello- I saw a product at Comic Con last year and it was intriguing. This new app allows animators to tell stories that are sort of hybrids between animated storyboards and full animation. They also pay for content on a sliding basis. https://www.storiaverse.com/for-animators For any storytellers on the Forum, check them out.. Tom

Ha!

Nice....Happy New Year!!!!!

Hey great Rob! I'll check it out!

I tried duplicating the swinging tail but realized, when I picked "dynamic constraints" from the drop down menu, I did not know what to do next? Is there a tutorial somewhere on dynamic constraints?

Thanks for the info. I think $30 a year might be a good investment also...

Hello All- I see that Microsoft is abandoning Windows 10 security updates on October 2025 and I wanted to ask any Windows 11 users if they have had any problems running Animation Master in Windows 11? Thanks for any info, Tom

wow.....neat configurations!

Waiting for the creaky sound effect.....

👍

I'm finding that the software adds the file names incorrectly for other extensions besides just "png"s. For "tga" it adds .ic instead of .tga.???

I tried rendering again and this time I tried rendering single images. The problem is that when I select a file extension, the software leaves out a letter and makes the render unsavable. For example I tried rendering a "png " file and the file only adds an "ng" after the period in the filename... making the file unsavable and thus the error message. Can anyone duplicate this bug? (see attachment)

Have been playing around with the new 19.5C build and while doing some tests using four different fur materials. this error message popped up; "Missing Image IO Plugin ..." Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks! Fur-TESTS.prj FurBEST.mat FurFenwick.mat FurMouseKing.mat Shag.mat

good try...! keep plugging

Here is a comparison. The Radiosity version is a bit more washed out...

Wow..fantastic answers. I can't wait to study and test this! Thanks!

How would you describe the difference between "Ambiance Global" and "Radiosity"? It seems like there is a bit of overlap in their functioning...

neat...thanks!

What sort of Ambiance Occlusion are you using in that scene?
