GruberR Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 I watched that bit of animation over and over and still can't stop smiling Quote
Admin Rodney Posted April 30, 2010 Admin Posted April 30, 2010 Hehe. That was awesome Robert. Very nice. Quote
ptiversen Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 That was very good, you could also use that for a train's smoke or even use it in a factory smoke stack..... Quote
MJL Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 applause, applause, applause with increased intensity, more applause! Nice touch, Great clip. Thanks Rob. Quote
dinocarl Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 Great stuff, Robert! Did you animate the Rocket and string by hand or is that a dynamic constraint at work? Either way, it's a wonderful clip! Quote
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted May 1, 2010 Author Hash Fellow Posted May 1, 2010 Thanks, everyone! Great stuff, Robert! Did you animate the Rocket and string by hand or is that a dynamic constraint at work? Either way, it's a wonderful clip! Animated by hand. The rocket body is wobbling around its approximate center of gravity. The string is a two-point spline with one end attached at the surface of the rocket body. This gives the impression that the string is being jiggled by the rocket's mass. At first, you'd think the rocket should move around the point where the string attaches, but a rocket has much more mass than a string so it tries to turn about its own center Quote
