Re: Set range and loop that timeline segment?

Welcome to the forum, fellow Utrechter! Our studio is based in Utrecht, hi :) How can we set IN- and OUT-points for playing and how can we toggle repeat for only continuously playing that segment while working on that part? Control (or Command) + Click on the frame indications on the timeline sets a...

Yeah don't do this, unless it's absolutely necessary for some reason. Less layers = better performance.

Re: How to Make Subtractive Mask

Set the group masking setting to “reveal all” and set the mask-layer as “subtract from mask”, and the to-be-masked layer set to “mask this layer”. Both layers need to be in the group and the mask needs to be below the layer you want to apply it on. See it as a black and white alpha channel that you’...

Re: Animate the pivot point?

If you've got the layerscript embedded and have a bone called "Origin", the layer origin of the bone layer will (should) snap to that bone. Is that happening? It works :D Thank you But, does it work if you don't use the embed method? Like the tools in "other" No, it absolutely n...

Re: Any software to easily create separate audio tracks for scenes from animatic?

I haven't used Final Cut since they introduced the X, because they really botched some things at the start of X. But I've heard it has come around. That behaviour sounds infuriating, but I can't imagine that it's not possible to have a clip not be snapped to the start. On the other hand, at the star...

Hello Lukas, I have downloaded your script. I have followed the installation method. But when I try it doesn't work. Even though I already embed "LK_Origin_Bone.lua", I've also changed the name of the bone to "Origin" Please help Could you specify what version of Moho you are us...

Re: Any software to easily create separate audio tracks for scenes from animatic?

Unfortunately almost all editing software is made for live action and not animation (or storyboarding). So the way it expects you to work is based on Live Action editing. It's a real bummer and such a gap in the market. I think most studios have their own custom system to handle these situations. Wh...

Re: Is there a way to save information into a bone?

Interesting idea! Clear animation doesn't delete them, so that's good. But I'd need to use a channel that we never use, so I can always hide it from the timeline. Motorspeed, perhaps... I might actually try to store everything in a created action though. That might work, and seems copy-pastable per...

Re: Is there a way to save information into a bone?

We have script data at the layer level. [...] The big challenge is keeping that list consistent with reality given that, the bone name can be changed in Moho in a variety of ways. Myeah, I considered this, but the risk of data getting lost is too big. I want others to be able to copy/paste bones fr...

Is there a way to save information into a bone?

Right now I am sometimes saving information in the name of a bone so a tool knows how to behave. For example I will rename "B1" to "B1 !s" and it will *never* be scaled and scale keysframes will always be deleted, because tools will recognize the "!s" tag in the name. T...

Need help with mouse offset in a tool

This problem is driving me nuts, and I'm probably missing something obvious... I'm hoping anyone can take a look and point me in the right direction. When you drag a bone in a FK chain, it will rotate and scale it's parentbone as if it were IK. And rotate the selected bone as if its angle was indepe...
