Re: Moho Plans

Are there any further updates as to when this will happen? As Victor mentioned, it's been "delayed a few weeks". So, possibly within the next 2 to 6 weeks? Any longer and I think he would have said "months". The only thing that I am questioning is the paid update vs a paid upgra...

Re: *NEW* Find and delete negative keyframes

I'm having issues running the script. I download it but nothing happens or says attach the script to a software. After I download it where can I find it in Moho? How do I open it to use it. This problem of animation slow down is happening in my lip syncing and my animation. It's killing my skits! P...

Re: I need to fix my license situation... what do I do?

Which version? If it's ASP 10, ASP 11, or Moho 12, you need to download the 'final' installer from here... https://my.smithmicro.com/forum.html Just toggle open the Moho 12 tab and download the version you need. This release should work with your license code. If it's Moho 13.0, you'll need to conta...

Re: Pivot a layer in a bone layer?

Hi uncle808us, How do you enable Ignored by IK constraint? Select the bone (in this case, the root of the tone arm bone chain,) cick on the Bone Constraints list to open the window, and click on the Ignored By Inverse Kinematics checkbox. (Should be halfway down the window.) I'm not sure if this opt...

Re: Unsightly edges on exported animated objects

I found using image sequences to be superior to movies anyway, because if you need to re-render only 2 seconds of e.g. a longer animation, with image sequences you only need to export the exact number of frames you fixed, not the whole movie. Yes, that and image sequences require fewer resources to...

Re: Can't a mask be transparent?

I'm a little confused by your description: Do you want the Mask to not be visible or do you want the result of the masking to be semi-transparent? If it's the former, you would use one of the 'Invisible' masking options. This makes the mask work on another layer but not render itself (it's invisible...

Re: Pivot a layer in a bone layer?

Oh, I neglected to mention something. You asked for the base bone of the tone arm to not move. To do that, I enabled the Ignored by IK constraint for that bone.

Re: Pivot a layer in a bone layer?

I would use a target bone to 'direct' the tone arm. To do this, rig the tone arm so you can raise it up and down with a target bone. Once you have that working, you can keyframe the target to use the hand bone as a parent, and it will move perfectly in sync with the arm motion. When the hand goes do...

Re: Pro 10 to Pro 13... where are all the Control Bones?

Ha, ha! Thanks. Normally, I only hear that after I feed my cat. :) FYI, Moho 13.0 has an Action ID issue that can break existing rigs, workflows for re-using rigs and rig parts, and when duplicating characters. This might be the cause of your Smart Bone Dials breaking. This was the main reason I sto...

Re: Pro 10 to Pro 13... where are all the Control Bones?

BTW, you had mentioned that your ASP 10 stopped working. This probably because Smith Micro shut down their license server a couple of months ago. If you wish to continue using ASP on your project, be sure to also download the Anime Studio Pro 10 installer available from the same link. This new 'fina...

Re: Pro 10 to Pro 13... where are all the Control Bones?

I'm not sure why the Smart Bones are not visible in your Moho 13.0 window, but before trying anything, I highly recommend regressing to 12.5 and contacting Victor about getting a license code. (Registered Moho 13.0 users are eligible for the downgrade.) Moho 12.5 is currently the most stable and usa...
