Hi, qube - I just saw your post - I missed it amidst all the festivities, I guess.

 

How did you want the traffic light? With an actual light, or will it do with color?

 

Have you done the TaoAM exercise 12 Lip Poses?

 

You can create ON/OFF poses for color like this example:

lights.mov

by:

 

1. Right click in Traffic Light model window, and click New > Pose > On/Off. You then get a new window, and underneath Actions, you get a "Relationship: Short Cut to Traffic Light - Pose1".

2. Click the + next to this Relationship in the Actions section.

3. Next to Shortcut to Traffic Light you will see a red X on top of "Show more than drivers" icon. Click this. You will now be able to change the properties of the groups. If you have a group in your Traffic Light model for the Red light, you can change the color from, for example, brown to red.

 

Like So:

If you are very new to A:M, this might make no sense, so please let me know and I will amplify.

 

With an actual light I can't help, as I am still coming to grips with them :)

Well, darn, Caroline. Finally a question comes along that I can answer and you beat me to it. :) Good response.

 

I've had some fun with flashing/blinking bits of models and it's not too hard to do. It's surprisingly satisfying to see working.
