General Anim8or Forum / Figure and Sequence Issues
« on: March 31, 2009, 08:08:21 am »
Hi all,

I cant believe Im back here asking for help from you guys again. Your such a great community. This time I have an issue with my figure. Im trying to get the arms to move but they wont. Heres a screenshot so I can explain.

So basically I can rotate the arms fine along the green axis but I need to move them up and down the pink access but no matter what i do in Sequence I cant seem to move it up and down this axis nor the blue.

So basically
Green: works fine
Blue: doenst work
Pink: doesnt work



Thanks in advance for your help Im sure this is a simple problem but Im a real noob.

You've been really helpful with my project thus far so i really really thank you! But I have yet another problem. I need to model a night city and I cant seem to find any textures, the models are really boring and I dont have much time to make heaps of models really interesting, so I was just wondering if you guys knew of a place where I can download textures or models for free, or even a random city generator or something.

Thanks in advance :D

I've found a solution. It's not great but it works. If you use Celestia and then use the mouse as the camera to record.

Thanks all so much for this, I think I still havent got it working exactly how I need, but its not an issue right at the moment. I really like johnar's billboards and Ill prolly use that example in the future.

Anyway thankyou all very much :D

Hey Indian8or yes thats exactly what I mean. I was trying to see if morph targets would allow my to change the texture but it didnt work. But basically what you have posted but moving like the first scene in Blade Runner with the Japanese girl if that helps.

Wow thanks so much for all these quick responses. I'll clarify what I mean.

I'm not talking about sprites but I meant physical billboards (like coca cola). I was trying to get animated textures to work at first, then I tried morph targets but neither seemed to work for me. Johnar yours sounds interesting I'm eager to see it.

Oh I meant electronic, not mechanical. I'll look into Terranim8or.

Thanks again :D
