Digerie Crakstone Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 Just wondering. A floating horizon line in the Choreography window would be a help in visualizing perspective in outdoor scenes. Is there an option to add one? Quote
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted August 5, 2011 Hash Fellow Posted August 5, 2011 Not built into A:M. You could lathe out a circle and expand it to very, very large size to approximate the horizon. Quote

That sounds like it should work. As soon as I get proficient enough in A:M (newbie proficient) I'll try it. Thanx. Quote
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted August 6, 2011 Hash Fellow Posted August 6, 2011 In the Project workspace, import this model into your Objects folder. HorizonRing.mdl Then drag it from the Objects folder onto your choreography in your Choreographies folder. The ring sits about 1 km from the 0,0,0 point in the chor which will be an approximate horizon line as long as the camera remains within a reasonable height above the ground. Quote
Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted January 11, 2014 Hash Fellow Posted January 11, 2014 Upon revisiting this, I'll note that the model could be Translate To constrained to the camera to create the appearance of an infinitely distant horizon line, no matter what the elevation of the camera. Quote
