Eric2575 Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 I rigged a simple mechanical model to rotate two arms. This model will be multiplied in an action 10x. Is there a way to move the rigged arm on one of the instances and have that carry over to the other 9 instances? The arms should all move in tandem. One bone at a time is very tedious.

KenH Posted August 27, 2007 Share Posted August 27, 2007 Could you not do it in a pose? Or in an action for one and put it on multiple copies of a chor? I don't think you can copy keyframes from one instance to another inside an action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnl3d Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Can the mechanism be done with an expression..I made this simple model rotating two wheel in opposite directions controlled with an expression and then dragged the model into an action and got this machine.mov wheels.zip Otherwise like Ken said make one action and drop multiple models into the chor wiith the action Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric2575 Posted August 28, 2007 Author Share Posted August 28, 2007 I don't think an expression would work in this case, but I like the idea. Now a pose, that might do the trick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
