What is best practice when exporting looping animations for use in a realtime 3d game engine? for example: looping walk cycle (frame 0 and frame 100 are identical) 1. set start frame to 0, end frame to 100, export or 2. set start frame to 0, end frame to 99, export Option 1: duplicate frame data but curves placed end on… -
Animating weapon movement
Hi guys! I'm kind of new to animation so I'm starting with something simple: animating the scifi weapons in my pet project. It is an FPS and there are no hands, just the weapon model itself.

Frames in Game Animation
Hey, so one thing that I think would help everyone looking to develop a game reel is to give some basic frame lengths for game animation.

Re: Help with gaming/animation career!
Hi Cap; I would suggest animation simply for the reason that there is so many modellers, but to be honest, I don't see many animation jobs out there these days, dunno why. That will probably be different by the time you are ready to look for work. But I think I see a little too much love for animation in that post of… -

BRUTAL issue with getting my rig/animation into Marmoset 1.10...
Everything was going great until Marmoset 1.10 tore my rig and animation to pieces. I spent 2 days following this tutorial to rig my creature in Maya http://www.digitaltutors.com/tutorial/1371-Rigging-Quadrupeds-in-Maya He uses some kind of "flexi" rig system that relies on nurbs deformation and even a bit of n-hair I… -

Re: Setting up props with animation the easy way.
Cool, i did this stuff quite a bit too some months ago, had to teach a class on it. I should ask here again (UDK forum is terribly silent): How the F** do you combine animations? I never got that! I followed this completely: http://udn.epicgames.com/Three/MatineeAnimControlTrack.html and it didn't work. It only wants to…
