Yes and yes. I have never tried it... but... since Moho has the ability to load movie files and image sequences... you could potentially use it as a very simple movie editing tool. You might be better off using a dedicated editor though. Search the "Other Software" forum for some free vide...

fIKLock not reacting to setting fPos without a keyframe

Working on my version of the bone master scripts and I can't figure this one out... The angles and position values are changed in the controlled bone layers. No key frames are created. If I try to set the fIKLock value... the bones don't behave the way they would if the lock is set using key frames ...

There are some free programs out there... check the "other software" forum.

However you may be able to skip this part and render as QT or AVI directly from Moho.

Apparently you are rendering out an image sequence.

Good luck to you! A small comment... You should pay attention to line weights. The lines are incosistent and cause the images to look... busy. Come up with some kind of consistent style... like... bold outlines and thinner interior lines... or something like that... and maintain it through out. In t...

I wanted to give a little background on why I did this and how powerful and usefull it could be. It involves the limitations of masking mostly... that's where it started anyway. It also involves multiple characters interacting and being able to animate all the bones from one layer. In some cases I w...

Master/Control bone "multibone" layer scripts...

These scripts have been completely changed. If you were using the old ones... your file won't work the same. Just some small modifications will make it work again though. I rewrote this set of scripts to allow controlling multiple bones on different layers from one master bone layer. You can downloa...

This is a bit annoying but... have you tried rendering? Apparently nested masks do work... you can't see them in the edit view. They only show up in the render. Try the set up you have and render one frame to check it. I just did an exact duplicate test and got the eye ball to mask even though in my...

Universal stroke weight only style

Some of you may know this one already... but I had to learn the hard way... I have to create about a dozen or more characters. Each works with another or alone etc.. When I started this I was new to Moho and was not using styles. I have since learned that STYLES ARE KING AND RULE ALL! Since then I h...

Okay... Devil's advocate here... This concept of animating on 2's... this came from where originally? Hanna-Barbara? Isn't it actuallly "dumbing down" the ability of the computer to match some old style of animation that was used ONLY because it saved time and money? (Hanna-Barbara was sla...

There is absolutely no reason not to have a two button mouse on the Mac. Apple even makes one now... though it is lacking in features and a bit pricey. There are plenty of reasonably cheap two button (or more) optical mice for Mac that are a joy to use with Moho... plus many other apps like internet...

Visibility of an image layer won't show in "edit" view. You must render to see if a layer is "off" or its transparency is set. I suppose this is a bug... not sure. This is the case on the Mac version... have not tested on the windows version. It can be tough to be sure where an i...

When you create a new Moho project the default length is 72 frames. I make this mistake all the time... do a preview or render and forget to change the length. You can change the length in the Project settings, or in the final render. Looking at the project settings there is a box for the end frame ...

I believe you are talking about a preloader in Flash to avoid audio synch problems? Here is the problem... Moho only exports the animation as SWF so... if you have audio that needs to be synched with complex animation... with out preloading the whole thing before it starts the animation goes out of ...

You need to study key frames. If you only have one key frame for each movement then... there is no pause... it doesn't stop. The computer doesn't know that you want to stop and hold for "9" frames... or "6" or "12".... before moving on... you have to tell it. It moves f...
