another teeny tiny question
« on: October 29, 2010, 06:37:57 pm »

So i'm in scene mod and i'm trying to get a certain bone to move in the Y axis.  It's added a controller for the X axis, but how do I get it to add a controller for the Y axis? or even the Z axis for that matter

  • Couldn't ever use Blender or Maya. Anim8or's good.

I believe you double click the bone, and where it says [Y] and [Z], select the boxes, and input your Min and Max values.

I do have that, it just won't show up. but i think I have it covered.  When I put in the blinking eye sequence, it brings up the controllers for all bones

One trick is to create a single-frame sequence for the figure that 'moves' all bones and install the sequence in frame 1.  If you pose the figure in the sequence, ensuring all bones are keyed, then a controller will be automatically generated for all bones.  Once inserted into Scene mode all bones will then be animatable.
