So regretably im looking into using another program to animate my web cartoon with.
Deciding factors were no IK, feet thru the floors, and not being able to easily delete or move a sequence from a scene.
Ill probably still continue to use anim8or to model just cause its so intuitive, but I need more features for animating.
Im testing out C4D right now and have a problem. Basicaly in anim8or if you create a subdivided mesh, say a basic sphere, then edit its properties and set its smooth angle to 0 you will get a blocky looking sphere. You will see the edge of every polygon.
Thats what im getting when I import my models to C4d via the 3ds format export.
Are there any C4D users out there that know how to fix this? Does C4D have a similar smooth angle option? Cause im not having any luck finding it.
Also if anyone can recomend another program that might suit my needs that I can export my anim8or models too that would be great. I really just want something with basic features thats easy to use. Or easy to animate with, cause anim8or works perfect for modeling as far as im concerned.

Cinema 4d is a great program: simple and still powerfull. I have used c4d for a will but i never made any detailed objects or something with it. Just some basic object so sorry i can't help you.

I worked with some people on a C4D forum and came to the conclusion that something was getting lost in the import export process while using the 3DS format.
When I export to the OBJ format everything is fine. Unfortunatly I have to do objects idividualy that way and lose the material information. But it works so that'll do.

im sorry mate i cant help you, but id like to say that i am amazed that c4D users use anim8or, if you see the youtube video anim8or vs blender it says that anim8or is half a star, but it cant be all that bad.
thanks

Please realise that youtube.com/watch?v=4dLfzyvln5c[/youtube]]this youtube video (http://www.[youtube) you talking about isn't a objective one. It just some guy sayin that the one with the best pictures is the best software. Which isn't completly true. I suggest to take a look at youtube.com/watch?v=srOBLT26fdE[/youtube]]this reply (http://www.[youtube) to that video.

yes i understand that whoever made that made that video took the very best of blender, and the very basic anim8or stuff.
