Anim8or v0.98 Discussion Forum / Re: Deleting Scene bug
« on: April 17, 2016, 08:03:05 am »
there are few more thing you could try jonhar:
see if there is some update for your graphics driver (if you have nvidia then there probably is new version on official site)

delete all unzipped versions of Anim8or, then install and run Ccleaner- clean the registry(untick everything you don't want to mess before start), restart computer, unzip last version of anim8or, see if it helps :)
 If you don't want to tamper registry you could try faster way: make new user on your computer, log in that account, start anim8or and see if problem persists.

win7 64bit- no issue of that kind.
I've noticed that new Anim8or build remembers undo/redo steps of all scenes within the project, so you could try to save the file, reopen it(it will forget undo/redo steps) and try to delete the scene again  :-\

 I've noticed that some reported 'bugs' in the development versions of Anim8or disappear after saving and reopening the projects.

Sluggs, when I open your an8 file meshes are invisible ???, try to download and open it again to see yourself. Maybe you should run the full antivirus check of computer?

General Anim8or Forum / using non-english fonts in Anim8or- octal codes
« on: March 31, 2016, 06:06:29 am »
 I've found a nice site with easy online unicode converter http://unicodelookup.com/
 Whoever needs some letters other than english to use in 3d project just convert those letters to its octal base and edit the .an8 file with the notepad following the steps that Steve explained:

Quote
Anim8or supports all UNICODE characters, including cyrillic, but with a big caveat. You have to hand edit the .an8 file to use them.  TEXT objects are stored internally as 16 bit UNICODE values and are represented in .an8 files by a L"xxxx" string format.  You can enter any UNICODE value as a backslash "\" followed by an octal value of up to 6 digits. The cyrillic UNICODE block goes from octal 02000 to 02377 (hex 0x400 to 0x4ff).  For example the character Б (Be) which is octal 02021 or hex 0x411 is L"\002021".  The leading zeros are optional as long as its not followed by a digit.

To do this you need to:


1. Add a TEXT object to your project.
2. Save it as a .an8 file.
3. Load it is notepad (or any other simple text editor).
4. Find the TEXT object and add your own UNICODE values in the L"....." string.
5. Save it and reload it into Anim8or.

It would be great if 'bone influences' in figure mode could be shown/hidden according to selection of the mouse clicks on the bone. It is very crowded now when all the orange and yellow orbs are shown at the same time, and it's hard to adjust the skinning because of that.

Adding some hot button to slow down the mouse movements while it's pressed?

Those three colored rings around selected bones(trackball) rotate bones only toward user.
 
 -With only mouse buttons while without trackball I always know where the bone will go regardless of the view point and move it back after a while- because it rotates them toward workspace
 -Trackball rotations of the bones are unpredictable and require a lot of 'Arc rotate' to fit object to the sight, if I move some bone and rotate the sight few times there is no way to get back the bone on the previous place without using 'undo'.
 
-Simultaneous use of standalone LMB/MMB/RMB and trackball is impossible , so I always use 'select all' and 'toggle trackball visibility' to hide all the rings(thanks kreator), they are making trouble- it would be much better if let's say on the right side of the screen would pop-up the trackball for the selected bone(away from the object).

'Loop selection of edges/faces with shift or similar' would be great.+1

'Screen-space rotate bones' can already be done with trackball, applying that also to the mouse buttons would badly reduce the mobility of the bones.-1 updated after advice from raxx +1 , now I had to update again- when bones of the hand are rotated it is much easier to use LMB/MMB/RMB than selecting each bone and moving it with the orb, it is better to leave it the way it works now.

'Axis-Restricted Bone Creation' sounds good.+1

I would add a request for 'possibility of linking the bone/s rotation and position with the target in scene'

your .an8 file is bad, import .obj again. apply texture in point editor on selected faces. edit pictures in some external photo program to match the colour and shape you want. good luck.

Sluggs-  see if Comodo antivirus is sandboxing Anim8or and if you have enough ram memory. On my comp it didn't make problems.

Anim8or v0.98 Discussion Forum / How to change the colour of the bone in figure window?
« on: March 19, 2016, 10:58:25 pm »
  After modeling the mesh I want to apply the bones to it in figure mode. So I add one bone to the root, assign the mesh to that bone and build the skeleton following the mesh.
   Well, everything goes OK until I start to paint weights so the bones influence different parts of body, colour of the bone to which I imported the mesh repeats and makes it impossible to paint those parts of the mesh.
 Is there any way to change the colour of the bone/s?
