Animation

Director 8.5 supports complex model animations through the following means:

The collision modifier allows models to respond appropriately to collisions.

The Bones player modifier allows models that have a skeletal structure defined in them to play back animations of those skeletons. These animations are created in separate 3D modeling tools.

The Keyframe player modifier allows models to play back time-based animation sequences. These can also be created in separate 3D modeling tools.

3D animations are called motions and can be initiated by 3D behaviors or Lingo. For more information, see Animation modifiers and Motions.
