3ds Max Animation :: FBX Animations Not Exporting Into UDK
Feb 21, 2014
I have bought a pistol model and am having issues importing it's anims from Max into UDK.When in the max the pistol looks fine: When I emport as FBX and then import into UDK the pistol looks like this:
This is because it is showing just as the editable poly. Looks the same in Max when i view the editable polyI can create the animations i need in max fine. My trouble is when I import the FBX animations into UDK, they don't seem to play at all after I've added them to my anim group for the skeletal mesh. I animated lots of characters and animals and exported into UDK fine. Are there some special export settings I need for a model like this pistol?

I have two bip files combined in Mixer in a Transition Track. I want to modify the biped's hand position in one of the files, but no motion curves show up in the Curve Editor. How can I make the changes?

I'm trying to copy animations from the OpFor Drill Sargent to this new Drill Sargent model. The guy who modeled it seems to have gotten the arms' scales wrong. I used 3ds Max to apply Position+Orientation constraints on the New model to copy animation from the old one. His arms stretch out a lot.

I read in the 3DS Max help files that it is possible to have multiple takes on one scene. It said only a few file formats (such as FBX) support exporting of more than one take and that if exporter to another format only the currently selected take will be exported, however I have been unable to find out how to switch to another take in the first place.
I would prefer to have several takes for my character's different animations instead of putting different animations at keyframe intervals.

I'm working on a project where I need to duplicate all animated sequences for both a male and female character. I currently have two biped rigged characters. I animate one, save the .bip animation file and then load into the other. I check the boxes for "Load max Objects" as I have some objects (like a glass of water) set as an IK pivot object. It loads those into the new scene along with the new pose, but the pose goes wrong, thought just with the arms (which are incidentally the only parts that have a seperate object as an IK pivot object.)
Here's a screenshot to show what I mean:
This incorrect animation happens whether the .bip animation file I save is loaded into the other character or loaded into the same character in it's original T-pose.

(work fine)But I loose my layers precision and the BaseLayer contains the merging animation.how to generate bone keys and still preserve anim layers ?

A: Can I export skinning information from one mesh to another. I have two identical versions of the character except I forgot to weld some verts on the model before skinning. Can I weld the verts and then export > import the skinning data? If so how?
B: I have someone working on some animation for me in CAT, I have since made some minor changes to the CAT rig (increased width of chest bones, that is all). I also changed all the skinning. Is it possible to export the animation data and load it onto an almost identical CAT rig? If so how?
I have max 2011 an 2012.

Im having issues when exporting an animation. I have set the time i want each layer displayed in the edit layer attributes section and entering a ms value. When i select layers, animation. play animation its perfect.
However. when i export it takes the values from that screen in preference over my specified values in each layer attribute. Explain the items in the export animation export window for me .

I have some experience using GIMP but I have just completed my first animation for my wedding invitation.
I have used GAP and am happy with the Playback and am ready to export to gif - something I have successfully done before in smaller images.
However, when I export to/save as gif, only the frame I have open at the time is exporting, not the whole animation. I have tried this on my two different systems - using GIMP 2.8.6 on Windows and 2.8.12 (I think) on Ubuntu but I am still stuck.
I'm not sure what information is relevant but I believe my frames are named correctly (000001.xcf - 000268.xcf) and as I said, the playback is working exactly as I want it to. Just not the gif!

I am trying to export a rigged character mesh (with clothes and shoe meshes too) using fbx so that i can put the character into UDK. Max wouldn't do it at first. (exporting all the meshes with the textures) that is, it did do the fbx file but udk would always crach importing it.
Then i managed to export the meshes seperatly and udk would import them with the textures moslty ok. But.... then max would not export the animations correctly. it totally ignores the 'range' you specify when doing the export. UDK would import them but they were the wrong lengths because of what max exports. i had to go into max and delete the frames and keys of the animations i did not want exported. that worked. obviously i had to do that for all of my animation sequences.
Now. once i figured out that max would only export animations that way i thought 'a-ha, now i can try exporting the character mesh with the clothes and shoes and rig with the textures. but max won't do it. i even tried to just do the body mesh with the rig as i did before (she runs around naked in udk) but now max won't even export an fbx file that UDK recognises as having a skeletal mesh in it. UDK only sees a static mesh.
Do i need to re-install max? is that a hassle? or does it do a repaire?

I was trying to export some mesh from 3ds Max 2011 to Maya,which was animated using "Parametric Deformers". Now the problem is that animation data is not coming into maya rest of everything is getting ported exactly.
Will FBX exporter supports "Parametric Deformers"like wave or ripple,etc. animation data to export? Is there any other way to do so.

I've got a short animation that I'd like to export, mainly because it's faster to use the tween function than manually adjusting my picture and saving every frame manually. Anyway, it doesn't look like Photoshop allows you to save animations in the Targa format and keep the alpha layer that I need in each individual frame. How I might go about either exporting the animation and keeping the alpha layer, or finding some way to work around this without having to manually copy the alpha layer to each individual frame by hand after I export it?

I've made an animation file in PS CS2. I need it to have an alpha channel, or just be transparent when I import it into my video editing program Final Cut Pro.
How do I do this in PS and how do I export it?
The file is a Lower Third - which will have titles written on it.

Just came upon an error I had not seen before. Though PSP no longer supports Animation Shop, up until PSP X4, the user has been able to export frames back to PSP from Animation Shop. Now, this no longer works! There's still some communication there, because an error message - which, incidentally, makes absolutely no sense at all - is generated in PSP X4:

I want to animate components hiding and then becoming visible again. Looks simple enough, I have all the keys placed with the correct settings and yet when I run the animation the objects don’t hide/show. If the object is moving however, the visibility control takes effect, but only while the object is moving.
If I hide/show before or after the motion, nothing but the motion animates. Is there a “Frustrate Dave” button that I accidentally hit or a hidden setting that prevents me from just animating visibility?

I have noticed that when I create animations in Photoshop/ImageReady they have this tattered white fringe around them. It shows up really bad when I display them against a white background.
Is there any way that I can defringe my animations? I know this can be done in Photoshop, however, in ImageReady there is no defringe feature. More accurately quoted, "If there is one it is not in the same location as Photoshop's."

I was messing around with my 3ds Max UI today, trying to freshen things up a bit, when I noticed the "Minimize" option for the Command panel window. I quite like the way this works, although one thing is bugging me about it.
When you enter or exit the Command Panel it "slides" in & out of view. Is there any way to disable this animation? Otherwise this is a pretty cool feature which I can't believe I didn't see before.

In CS3 I was able to export animations into .SWF files but with CS6 I can't seem to find out how to do this? The only option is .MP4 via File>Export>Render Video but thats no good to me. I've searched high and low for this answer but have come up with nothing!
It needs to be SWF. I've tried to convert MP4 into SWF using a 3rd party software but the quality was shocking and I'm unsure what settings to use for the original animation and also for the converting! Doing it with CS6 is much prefered if possible!

I recently downloaded a trial of Photoshop for my mac book pro, and love it. I have been practicing doing simple graphics etc with textures and templates, but however, i was following a tutorial when it said click 'animation'.
It said it was under 'windows' on the tool bar, but I couldn't find it anywhere.

I have just begun experimenting with the animations feature in Photoshop (or maybe it is called timeline). I feel it very useful for animation small sprites for 2D game characters but there is one thing I seem to not be able to figure out and that is how to "replace" graphics? Say for example I have a walk cycle with a character holding a sword. I have layers for the body parts that I move around until I have an animation. It would then be very good if I could just drop in another sprite for a weapon, say an axe and have it replace the sword.
The only way I have been able to do this is to manually remove the sword and place the axe in the exact spot of the sword had, but that is a very clumsy and slow method.

I am using Photoshop CS3 and have created an animation in which I have exported into a movie w/o any compression.
This animation does contain text.
I am concerned that when this is projected onto a large screen the text will become pixelated. is there anyway to ensure that pixelation of the text does not occur.
