-----------------------------------------------------------------------
2. I have set up a 30 frame animation of something swinging back and
forth. When I creat a wireframe preview, the point where it goes
from frame 30 back to 1 is very rigid - I want it to be smooth.
I tried adding continuity etc to both end points, clicking
buttons, praying etc, but i cannot get the anima ion to have a
smooth transition at that jump. How do I do that?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm assuming that there are key frames at frames 1 and 30, and that frames
1 and 30 match. That's why you have a little pause (the same thing twice in a
row).
Try this....in the same order.
Go to frame 29 and make a key frame (make sure it effects the same objects as
Keyframe 30). Go to Keyframe 30 and delete frame. There, done!
A 29 frame cyclical anim.
If your anim needs to be fully 30 frames in length then...
Go to Keyframe 30, make it Keyframe 31, go back to Keyframe 30 delete
KEYFRAME (30), now make frame 30 a Keyframe again, go back to Keyframe 31
and delete FRAME. You now have a SMOOTH fully cyclical anim thats 30 frames
in length.
Later,
