Post by maGro »

is someone a little familiar with 3dstudi and could he make a very short animation of an already existing object? (the typical passing bullet animation, dont think its much work if the bullet exists)
Is like one of the last objects i need to release :/

1) 3d studio is a dos software. 3d studio max is windows software

2) are you sure you want that overused effect?

I dont remember to much of 3dmax, so I dont quite remember exactly how to do it.
this is what I remember... the first thing u have to do is to record the video sequence on aq2 (keygriping and using the imagination to see how the bullet is going to fly), second step is to load the bullet model on 3dmax and create a camera (a camera that you can manipulate with keyframes, just like the cameras in keygrip but more fancy of course), after that, on the camera view you load the .avi as a background, after that you can see the video moving the timeline, and in that timeline you can put the keyframes of the camera u created, so you can move it and animate it, so is just matter of playing around and coordinating the camera with the background video....

anyway, if u play around you'll get it... that's all I can remember. You can google for camera animation tutorials....

You suck at editing posts!

Although, he asked for someone to do it for him, as apparently, he isn't wanting to learn how to.
You could make a trade though, the community gets the movie he promised and you make him the ugly effect!

if the community doesnt wasnt it i can keep the effect out of the movie, however i feel in that special scene the effect would fit right in.
And yea, its i dont even have 3dmax and dont know where to dl it so far..
and i hoped someone here uses it and had a short time to do it..
what about meister, i thought he was like some 3dguru regarding to aq2frag awards?
