View 4 Replies View Related3ds Max Animation :: Animating Camera Along A Spline Using Path Constraint
Jun 5, 2012I have problem with animating camera along a spline using path constraint. The spline has been spline normalized before added to the path constraint. Then I add besier floating to be able to slow down the camera.
The final camera seems to move not smoothly. This can notice especially when the camera are further away from the origin (0,0).
Some says it's because of Max's coordinates is not fine enough which can clearly proved when import autocad file which located very far from the origin into max and most vertex will be shifted from where it should be in Autocad.

Is this possible ?

How can I keep this distance between the rhombus object and the path constant?

View 8 Replies View RelatedMaya Animation :: Create Curve Based On Path Of Object?
Mar 10, 2011I am doing some animations involving sine waves, and I can make an expression that controls the translation of an object such that it travels along the path of a sine wave, but I can't figure out how to dynamically create an editable sine wave curve.
Is there a way to have Maya generate a curve based upon the path that an object travels upon?
For instance I have a sphere that is moving along the X axis with time, and also moving up and down on the Z axis back and forth. I would like to make an editable curve object of this path of motion.
I can see in Maya 2012 we will have motion trails where we can see the actual path an object is moving along, and that we will be able to interact with this path to alter the animation, but what if we could take that path and make it an actual curve or NURBS object?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Rotate WITH Constraint In Assembly?
Jun 24, 2013I have an assembly wherein one part is mated to another grounded part, with a face-to-face coincident mate. The click + drag type of movement appears to move the part, while continually solving this constraint.
However, it seems like there is no way to do a rotation in the same manner, where the constraint is continually updated. There appears to only be the "Free Rotate" command, which ignores the constraints.
Is there really no way to do this in Inventor? The application is that I am laying out a mold for many, many small parts, and I am trying to move and rotate them into position to get good packing efficiency and density. Each part will be attached to a mold base with one of the aforementioned face-to-face constraints, then slid & rotated around manually.
This seems like a really important piece of functionality. Solidworks can certainly do this, do a part rotation in an assembly, while solving for existing constraints.

I know it probably pertains to the World Link but don't know how I should handle this.

Maya Animation :: Parent Constraint Not Working Properly For Hand Writing
Feb 26, 2014I am trying to get the hand to write with a pencil. I pose the hand and fingers holding the pencil and constrain (parent constraint with offset) the pencil to the hand's wrist controller and freeze the pencil's translation attributes. When moving the wrist controller creating key frames or translating in the UI, the pencil does not follow the hand/fingers. There seems to be an offset with the pencil that get worse the farther I translate or rotate the wrist controller. I tried doing the same with just the fingers and getting the same result.

View 3 Replies View Related3ds Max Animation :: Stretch FK Setup Not Able To Rotate At The Elbow
Sep 19, 2013I'm trying to make a FK arm with the ability to stretch in Max 2012, but as soon as I assign an orient constraint to the elbow, the stretch ability disappears.
The file consists of two bones, two spline controllers, and an expose transform. The upper arm bone is orient and position constrained to the shoulder controller spline. The exposed transform reports the distance between the elbow spline controller and the upper arm bone. The lower arm bone, has a "Float Script" on the X Position transform and it takes the distance reported in the exposed transform to adjust its position relative to the upper arm bone.
If I select bone_elbow and assign an orient constraint, the "Float Script" on the position stops working, but the rotation works.
(I'm trying to keep the controllers out of the heirarchy of the bones because our game engine will export them and I'm trying to avoid that)
