Wow....I am impressed!!!

The only change I would recommend is that the explosion happen a little sooner.
As soon as the face masks touch, bam!!! Right now it seem like a second delay or so...

Again, nice work.

Could you provide the wireframes and a tutorial?

Thanks,

Ray

The helmets would have to rotate on the way down so you can see the team logo.
The final position on the bottom would be with the facemask facing each other.

This would be an American football helmet. A quality model is hard to find. I have a rather simple .3ds.

And I've been searching and searching for the Monday Night Football crashing helmet video with no luck.. I'm really surprised I  can't find it.

Basically I want two helmets (one from each team) to drop into the video from the top to the bottom and have an audio affect when they hit the bottom.
Then the two helmets back away from each other a bit, then go towards each other until they touch, like a couple of rams, then explode into small pieces and fade away.

Pretty simple eh?

I am running Vista 64 bit on  a quad core box. nVidia 9600 graphics card.
Will everything work?
WOW, nice comp, as the others have said, it all depends on how hard YOU try.
Be sure to read the manual and a few tutorials to get yourself going.

Of course, for that animation, I'm sure one of the animators here (or cg-nation.com) will be happy to do it for some money.

What? I am donating my time and labor to produce these videos!! Surely there is an animator that would help me out and do the same?

You mean like these:

Make sure you also have the latest drivers installed (especially for the graphics card).

Although I've never been able to get those boxes go away; it's something I have yo live with.

This is exactly what I am seeing.

Ok, what in the world (no pun intended) am I missing here? I'm using the latest 0.95 download on a Vista 64 bit box.

All I am trying to do is draw a simple path. When I choose the straight or curved line icon and click in a view pane, I get a tiny box.  If I click again it goes away. Holding the LMB and dragging I get nothing besides the little box.

Also, the outlined box next to the arrow...when I choose it and click and drag inside a view pane, I get basically garbage as I drag. When I let the mouse button go I get those tiny boxes again. Click again inside the same view and they go away.

I am really feeling dumb right now........

Download a different version of Winzip?

I know there is a version out there that is free. I'm thinking v8.

General Anim8or Forum / Import types?
« on: August 12, 2008, 12:29:59 pm »

I'm reading through the manual and there is no mention of Import/Export file types?

I am thinking that I can lay out the animation in anim8or and then use Maya to render?

What are the export file types?

I will be creating a video of a kids football game and I'd like to add an animation of
two football helmets crashing together. Monday Night Football did it a few seasons ago.

Can anim8or do this? And what will be the end quality?

Thanks,

Ray
