if you highlight the page you can tell where the wall is and why he bounced back after he got thrown :)

[Asmodeus]

No posts? Guess no one likes it.. so i'll take it down...

[paulk6]

Naw... It's cool. I wouldn't be able to do it :(

[Tama Drummer]

What program do make that in?

[Asmodeus]

Pivot..C'mon duffman POST! I did this for you!

[Duffman]

Hey i just got online... geez... talk about pressure.

Very first thing i tried to do was a fight too lol.

One thing dude the scene is fine but don't move the sticks so much between frames... it's very jolty. When you use less and make more frames it's biggest but the end result is a lot smoother... I'll post one of mine it i can find it.

I'm sorry it's a little small but i made it 70 pixels wide to use as an avatar and when i make it bigger the quality is terrible...

[Asmodeus]

Your right yours was very smooth .. nice work..

i was just throwing a rough estimate out of how long it was... kinda guess really, so how long is it in truth?


and why wold u need something at 69 frames a second, the human eye cant really tell anything past 60... just my 2 cents

[Asmodeus]

Ok time for a quick poll?

Who wants to see my latest work that isnt finished !

Not bad not bad... It's a little hard to follow who is who... maybe you could change there colours so you can distinguish. Why not instead of moving them so fast you move them slower and push the frame rate up... it'll be even less jolty but it will take a bit longer to do...

I'm gonna start a series with mine. I'm gonna come up with lots of different endings to the same starting sequence... check it out. (this is just the start bit)

Pile on some ideas for the end... I've got a few but some variation would be nice.

P.S. And yes i had a bit of trouble positioning the joust,horse and rider for the second horse as they had to scroll in... just ignore it :)

[Asmodeus]

How did you make those horseys I want one.. nice stuff looks good mine is about half way done I'll post it when it all the way done..

And how do you get that moving effect I need it since you haven't copyrighted it yet. :D

[paulk6]

I think he might have drawn them. Just a wild guess. :rolleyes:

[Asmodeus]

I know that! But you have to put them in certain frames to get that effect just a guess. :rolleyes:

[paulk6]

Oh, well I don't know anything about animation, so I don't know.

[Asmodeus]

Then don't guess. :p j/k

[paulk6]

But I like guessing...

[Asmodeus]

I see.. Well since no one has joined the conversation I guess this is like a chatroom now...

Well I hereby revoke your privlege to guess~!

[Asmodeus]

NOOOO my work....gone....ACK.. all 300 frames of it.. *sniff* I forgot to save.... *sniff*

*cries on duffman's shoulder*

[Duffman]

Ouch dude.... Ouch.

The horseys are on there as preset things. When you go into edit press open and there is an elephant, a horse and one other thing... ummmm... don't know it but it's there.

The movement this is easy... like it's just an illusion. just make a little piece of nothing in edit that looks like this: -

Then you put it on one side of the screen and move it across in a line at a fast rate. The further you move it the faster it looks like you are going, but remember they have to look like it is moveing in a line otherwise it's just little dots on the screen. it just gives the effect that the screen is moving really fast. I used it on my superpain one too but it's so small you can't see em.

[Asmodeus]

I saw them on superpain...it wasn't to hard to see them.. ok so your saying all i have to do is make a custom animation that look like this: - Then move them each frame into a different place?

[Duffman]

pretty much. Just make sure the move in a line opposite to the direction of the movement. Oh and if you use more than one it goes without saying they have to be parallel lines.

[Asmodeus]

Ok. thanks duff
