You could try Quicktime, H264 or PNG compression. If you don't have quicktime installed on your computer, you should install it. ASP needs it to play MP3 audio files, so it would be good to have and it has better codecs for video.

Is it only in the render that they don't show up i.e. are they working in the workspace? What format are you exporting? Can you post the anime file so we can check it?

1. yes if its the only thing visable even if you have to copy your selection onto its own layer to do it. 2. not that I know of 3. ctr+p is the command for point peak, ctr+E is the export command 4. any layer that is point heavy like particles layers sometimes point tweaking is necessary but maybe y...

Wow, great minds think alike. About 2 weeks ago, I was playing with this exact concept, switch layers and all. Only I wasn't thinking of selling them like you, but just for my own use. I think it's a great idea, although I don't know what the demand might be. One idea I had that I don't see you usin...

You can reduce that outline by lowering the stroke width in the style palette. Or even remove it by unchecking the stroke. I usually do this when I import Poser figures because of strange artifacts the stroke causes.

Anyway, nice work!

I know of some women who would. There's no getting between a woman and her shoes.

@ Gav, loved this, nicely done.

I loved Molina in Boogie Nights and Maverick too. Great voice. What an honor.

And don't forget his small but cool part at the beginning of Raiders of the Lost Ark. Nice one Chucky.

I've been playing around with blend morphs to make a monster transformation and I really like the results so far. If you have ASP8.2, you can check out the anime file.

There is an option in the animation sub-menu that lets you re-scale a specified frame range. So you can drag your layers back where you need and then use that option to re-scale the rest of the animation to what you need. You can also use this to re-do camera movements.

There's also the fill effect spots. You need to hit ctr+r to see the effect after you apply it. The scatter brush would make it too point heavy if you need to make as many of these as you say. The image texture would also be a good option like sbtamu said.

Like you said, its not perfect but nothing jumps out at me as wrong or badly done. You might want to have the web address up for about 5 or 10 seconds longer. But not bad for a first animation.

U R welcome, have fun animating, don't forget to post your results.

With the add points tool, left click hold and drag out a line and release. Repeat to add to the line or make a curve. You're probably better off starting a new layer and deleting the old path layer with all those un-connected points.

Make sure the path layer isn't inside the bone group. Are the points on the path layer connected?

Okay Bob, try this. With the free hand tool, draw out a simple path on its own layer. Now select the layer you want to follow that path in the layer palette and select the follow path tool. Click on your path where you want it to start. The layer origin should move to that point. Go to another point...
