 :)I am new to anim8or and i am not sure if you can do this already:

As known with gif images they can contain transparency

I was wondering if you could path around the image of a block or something that has a transparent background

here is an example of what i mean

before

attachment 1

After

attachment 2


This can be used with cars.

just as a quick way of doing it

The attchments might not work

Welcome to the forum, be sure to read the manual, do the tutorials and use the search bar for questions
You can do it manually using the STRAIGHT PATH tool then extruding or going to POINT EDIT mode and using the ADD EDGE tool.

Thanks

[Orange Pickle]

I tried using the straight path tool but i keep getting "maliformed Spline"

Yet to try the add edge tool

[3Dgeek11]

yes, I get that message too sometimes when I do a path. I don't get it.

[Orange Pickle]

Now what i do is:

do sections while pathing so I don't get that message.

[3Dgeek11]

what do you mean by "sections" ? thanks.

P.S. my biggest problem is the "100 points" limit where it won't do the end caps.

[Orange Pickle]

By sections i mean do the front part of the car then do the back.
When your finished join them together

Oh and also for the 100 point limit do that in parts

[3Dgeek11]

cool, thanks. that will help me alot. (could Steve update the point limit to like 200, I wonder?)
