Thanks very much guys. Need to revisit my Tutorials on Flexi Binding.

Ok, so I have a character with all the main body parts on different vector layers. I want this character to have very rubbery arms and legs (old school hose tube look). Now in order to specify the influence of the bones I know I can use Layer Binding, but what if I want a layer to be effected by mul...

Got it- it was having the Group or Bone layer selected and physically changing the order of the layers that I needed to do. I was trying to do it like the Shape order of a single Vector Layer.

Yay!

Thanks. I thought that's how it worked but I'll have to try again. All the elements are living in a bone layer. Would Anime be getting confused if I clicked that checkbox on all the elements WITHIN the Bone Layer? I did manage to fudge it for now by key framing a minor z-Depth shift, but if the laye...

I'm building a head with pigtails that disappear on each side when I'm making an action for a head turn. I've already seen tutorials where you can animate the order of shapes on a single Vector layer. But because of the complexity of my model, the elements of the head are spread across multiple vect...

That's what I figured. I tried tracing an image last night. The toolset for moho actually works pretty well, and I'd imagine if you can create the image in moho it will work be more responsive with less points. The only advantage of illustrator seems to be to be able to independantly adjust the curv...

LM. You are quite correct. I think I was FF through some of the earlier chapters to get to the more exciting stuff. jahnocli. yeah, there are some things I've been meaning to fix, navigation wise for a while now. But it always ends up being a decision between fix site/ new content. Thanks for the in...

can anyone point me to a workflow for porting hand drawn images into moho? I usually do this kind of work in photoshop, but I've found that photoshop eps files can be a bit wonky when brought into illustrator. This, of course brings me to another point. I tried bringing in some exising illustrator v...

That's got it, it's because I was on frame 0. As soon as I moved off that frame, everything worked fine. That's not in the tutorial, is it? Thanks for the help everyone. This program is providing me with a nice break from traditional 3D work. The posibilities are intriquing. Marcus R. Moore Hoverboy...

7feet. I'll check that.

I've just tried loading some of the stock objects. None of their skeletons work either. They're vector layers are subset to the bone layers, but there's no red dot beside the vector layer.

ralphrubbish. Yeah, I've done that. The name is indented under the bone layer with the red dot. Nadda. 7feet. I looked at that thread and did the manual selection of points in order to make sure they're accepting binding. When I go to the "bone" menu, everything is non-selectable. This is ...

I've just downloaded the demo version for mac. I'm running 10.3.7 on a G4 733. I've tried several times to do tutorial 3.1 "Bone Binding", but once finished adding the bones, the attached vectors do nothing when I rotate the bones. I'm used to 3D programs so I'm pretty darn sure I'm doing ...
