stop a cycling action

Post by spasmodic_cheese »

Hey.. I just made a walk animation in an action for a my character, and that walk animation has a cycle in it.

Unfortunatly when I referenced the cycle into main timeline ... i couldnt figure out how to stop it =/

Duplicate , paste the key hardwood and make long circulation. This is an old method . It will be useful to you to hope :shock:

Cycling in Moho 5 is another type of interpolation, like Linear or Smooth. To stop cycling, you need another keyframe at the point where you want the cycling to end.

In earlier versions of Moho, cycling would never end. This new approach makes it possible to cycle for a while and then change over to other movements.

You need to be in the layer containing the cycle you wish to stop, and outside the frames containing the cycle. Then you simply add another key frame. It might be necessary to add some frames to tidy up the image, i.e.place the legs in a sensible position.

Er...this thread is 14 years old...and I don't think Spasmodic Cheese is a forum member any more...and Moho 5 is not even a distant memory for many forum members.
You can't have everything. Where would you put it?
