Hi Guys(and Steve),

i'm missing Steve  
but i Know then Steve are busy  

meanwhile, I would like the future a new feature..

while not has  INVERSE KINEMATICS..

i try show in Flash easy way to move bones
without always need click in "Select<button>" --->"Rotate Bone<button>" etc..
when change bone to move!!

my sample show, how are very usefull if we can use only click in point of  bone ..
is helpfull and fast to make animations in figure mode!

see images of my programation sample and link to TRY IN REALTIME in file .SWF OK


i hope if possible in future this way can be implemented in Anim8or !!

1-bones statics


2-animate bones only clicks and drag!!


3  - LINK to File SWF TO TRY MY SAMPLE
http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/9628/movebonessampleflash.swf


in this way we dont need AWAYS click in:

 "Select<button>" --->"Rotate Bone<button>"
 "Select<button>" --->"Rotate Bone<button>"
 "Select<button>" --->"Rotate Bone<button>"
 "Select<button>" --->"Rotate Bone<button>"

to animate bones movements..OK

Thanks all!!

..one more time, SORRY MY ENGLISH..

Select all the bones you want to rotate.
Switch to rotate.
Then,rotate the bones the way you want.

Oh thanks Claude!!
but in "Figure mode" after "free bones" this metod dont work??

thanks!

[Claude]

Welcome.
It also works in figure mode.

[neirao]

hi Claude,  

yes now work!
I think it was an individual file, really did not work .. then I created another figure,
and it worked .. hum .. I think it was a bug ..

thanks..

Hello there neirao. ,

  That looks really, really interesting.  Nearly inverse kinematics, but not quite the same as i've seen in IK Animation programs.
 Actually, very cool.

 One thing i don't quite understand is When you say to 'make animations in figure mode'.?
 Buit you don't make animations in figure mode., Only in sequence and scene modes.?

 By the way, the little Anim8or related programs which you are making are Excellent. Gr8 stuff,

 
Thanks.

PS. I'm missing Steve too. . Hope he's ok, but as you say, he is a very busy guy.

[neirao]

thanks johnar,

yes i say "in figure mode",  but I wanted to say in either a "FIGURE" as in "SEQUENCE" mode OK
..how i say before, MY ENGLISH IS BAD.. sorry..

PS:yes miss .. Steven .. I hope he is well without any problem, and if possible if he will return with news in Anim8or.

thank you!!

[Steve]

That's an interesting idea.  What algorithm are you using to orient the child bones of the one that's being rotated?

[neirao]

hi Steve!!
Im very happy by answer me and see that all is well with you!! thanks!!
follow below the image with names and the code:

Code: [Select]

//Steve i try post in English the names ok..

any questions I am available ok

thanks!

Hi Steve, sorry for the previous code is just text ok!
I made another color for better understanding 



any questions I am available ok

thanks!
