A new version is coming, but it will not be available here (or on http://www.animestudioscripts.com/). See my signature and the requirements here: http://www.kelleytown.com/forum/animato ... IC_ID=2058

The higher bone strength region will generally appear in front. This is why the hand is in front of the head but behind the torso (torso has higher strength). Bone strengths cannot be animated, so there is no way to change this along the timeline.

Only very simple masking shows correctly in the workspace. This has always been a limitation of AS.

Gradients, like image textures, are influenced by bone strength, not vector motion. Independent of bone influence, you must use the effect handle with the select shape tool. I'm aware of this, but my problem had nothing to do with gradient animation; my problem involved the gradient being mysteriou...

Those are just camera zoom and pan settings.

good looking moving flame synthsin75 . Did you put your latest shapes managing script on sell on your forum? i read that it will be available for people who post 50 time on it but clearly i'm clear far from it. Is there an other way to get it? Not yet. One of the problems I have with this script in...

From http://www.kelleytown.com/forum/animators/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1990 : I also tend to use camera defaults of zoom about 25, y about 1.5 and z about 20; with the primary object of focus at z=0 with its base at y=0 as this is closer to "human eye" than the extreme fisheye that AS gives you...

All the particles must be set "free floating" and just bind the group containing all the particle layers to a bone.

This is expected, as AS tries to limit intensive effects in order to maintain as close to real-time playback as possible. When playing the timeline, it is more important to be able to judge animation timing than effects.

Try talking into a styrofoam cup to muffle the words while leaving the emotional tone. Might need some further processing or muffling to make it completely unintelligible.

You can always animate the bone dynamics on/off to choose when it is applied.

First, try installing updates if you haven't. These include bug fixes.
