Walk Cycle: Crazy Bob - Free to Play with // Roundtable 1  |   Order by default Post by frootee // Jun 19, 2007, 3:29am frootee Total Posts: 2667 Hi folks. I put together a Crazy Bob Walk Cycle last night. I am including the scene file so you can play with it. The walk cycle is really not perfect; but that's a good thing. The idea is, since it needs work, you can practice with TS7.51's character animation tools by improving something that's already working. Couple things that really stand out: 1. The hands: they should be rotated towards the body 2. The left leg and arm do not swing as much as the right 3. The feet do not rotate: may need additional bones/joints for that. 4. The hips do not rotate 5. The head does not bob Enjoy! And if you want of course post your animation or scene file for others to play with! Thanks, Frootee Post by 3dvisuals dude // Jun 19, 2007, 3:55am 3dvisuals dude Total Posts: 1703 Thanks Frootee! It may be a long time before I start playing with animated characters myself though since I'm so buried at the moment in learning scripting and physics, but I will get there eventually so I grabbed your freebie for when I do! This is all such a fascinating development... not only are we getting a kick-butt Character Development Toolset with TS7.51, we are also getting along with it the most amazing Shared Space Development environment (through Scripting and the LE) I could even begin to imagine... it's so powerful and elegant it just floors me! :D Great days these! ;) - 3dvisuals dude Post by frootee // Jun 19, 2007, 4:01am frootee Total Posts: 2667 Hey 3dv. You're welcome! If you get a chance, you can even just load the scene file and press the play button, just to see what I mean. Enjoy!

Thanks :banana: Post by frootee // Jun 19, 2007, 5:43am frootee Total Posts: 2667 Really? COOL! A couple weeks ago I was playing around with a making CrazyBob do a long jump. I won't post that because it was pure improv with no reference material; it looks embarassingly horrible, but I will make another one, with reference material. Practice makes perfect!

With so much going perfectly right thanks to all you Team Caligari Guys I don't have time to focus on the little things that don't! I'm just too excited! :D Thanks, you made my year! ;) - 3dvisuals dude
