Computing Dynamics

[gazzamataz]

I am looking back at my 'Bella Bear' project I created back in circa 2006/7 so the files are old… I am having problems scrubbing through timelines using the latest version of AM. I keep getting 'Computing Dynamics' popping up and slowing everything down. Can someone tell me how to turn this off?

Hi Gary,

If you mean actual dynamic constraints on bones I think you will need to turn off the pose(s) in the model(s) that implement(s) the dynamic constraints.

If you need to scrub AND see dynamic action you can BAKE Dynamics.  This will bake them in for the length of the Chor Blue Bar.

 

 

If you mean particles and hair,  SHIFT-8 will toggle particles ON/OFF

You can also add the button to any tool bar by dragging it from the Customize window to a tool bar.

 

If you should need to scrub AND see particles you can BAKE them also. This will bake them in for the length of the Chor Blue Bar.

Gee fanx Rob! It was the latter… The fire and smoke coming out of Witchy Peg's broomstick.

Going through all the files and renders I did on this project makes me realise how long I spent on it - months! But it is like going down memory lane it's all about 20 years old now I can hardly believe it…
