I've created a motion path animation. In preview everything works well, I then go to create a AVI/WMV file and it builds the video without any problem. When you view the video it always stops in the same place (about 6 seconds in) but the video keeps running for the full duration of 30seconds.
I've tried this several times with different settings but always the same outcome.
How to get the 'Shape to Block' command to work (under express tools).
It says select object, but no matter what object I select eg. circle, pline or line, it says invalid selection. I am running AutoCAD 2012. Are 'shape' objects somehow different from any other objects?
I want to do a short movie with facial animation.
I want to animate 2 bears and 1 human.
Is there any program, to record my face(for the human) and "mix it" with the character?
Or how should I do the Face animation?
I am able to use the menuload command to load the express menu, but when I try to execute one of the express tools. AutoCAD say invalid command, there was something on the website that said to type express tools at the command prompt, but when I do that, too it says invalid command.

Command: extrim
"bad argument type: listp #<SUBR @2f9669b0 BONUS_ERROR>"
There are also a few other express tools that when picked from the ribbon menu, do not work either. Now, I have seen elsewhere on the web that in this case, you should make sure there are no search paths set to R14 Bonus tools (which mine aren't), or repair and update express tools from add/remove programs in the control panel. I did this, and the only thing that happened was the numbers after SUBR@ changed.
My application works with function it acet-ss-drag-moves of Express Tools. Can I distribute AutoCAD Express Tools with the program of Installation of my application?
This to guarantee that Express Tools will be with the user's AutoCAD. If this is possible what document should I use?
I've got a Locator attached to a Curve with a Motion Path - the Motion Path is animated so the Locator moves nicely along the Curve. I now want to swap the original Curve with a new one and have the Locator follow it instead.
Is there a way to simply switch curves and tell the Motion Path to use a new Curve while keeping the animated keys in the Motion Path node?
I've tried playing around with the connection editor but cant manage to connect the new Curve to the Motion Path nodes "geometryPath"
I'm currently working on a advertisement for a client and I need to creat a kind of ribbon to wrap around like a present. I thought what would be best would be making the ribbon and then using a motion path add it on but also I would add a gravity field to the ribbon so to moved more like a ribbon.
Also with the motion path I have made them and connected my ribbon and for some reason it doesn't move until the last frame and just snaps to that position?
To create an animation similar to the one shown in the page 225, in the tutorial, I created a curve but I am not too sure that was the correct way to create it.
1. Selected the Surfaces Menu.
2. In the font view, using the CV Curve Tool, created the first half.
3. Using Duplicate in the Edit Menu, I created the other half.
4. In the Edit Curves Menu, selected Attach Curves and connected two curves.
5. I, then selected the Animation Menu and created an object to be used as an aircraft and followed the same steps shown in the tutorial and it worked nicely.
I am trying to attach an object to a motion path but when i do the object goes to the beginning of the path but when i move the time slider nothing happens and when i move the object it isn't attached to the path.
View 8 Replies View Relateda few things involving cameras. My assignment was to use our plane that we modeled with poly's and animate it on a motion path(used cv curve tool) and have a camera above it follow it. Now I got that down perfect.
But what I don't have a clue on, is how do I attach a camera on the same motion path as the plane and have a camera angle right behind the spinning propeller? Like a cockpit view.
I have an animate file that contains many animations and one motion path animation. All animation elements of the animate file are responsive with the exception of the motion path animation which is not for some reason. Why does the motion path animation not repsonsive even though it is L, T, W, H coordinates are set as percentages?

is there a fix or workaround for this?

View 9 Replies View RelatedMy question is: Why certin AutoCad files, I'm not able to draw lines?
I'm in model space. I can move objects. I can even erase/delete things. But I'm tring to edit this shop drawing, i need to add some details, so i need to draw some lines. I use the "l" command. Select my 1st point, then 2nd point. It doesn't work? The Command line keeps saying: Specify next point or [Close/Undo]. But no lines are getting drawn. i finally have to hit escape to end the line command but no lines have gotten drawn. its the same thing if i draw a square or circle. (Not sure if you need to know this but these are my companies files created by a former employee of my company using our own AutoCad. So, i would think if he's locked this file somehow, i should be able to unlock it.)

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a problem I haven't found an answer to in any CAD documents, books of forums. I would like to create:
a) a continuous line that begins and ends with space or a shape
b) a line (of any type) that has text (i.e. shape) imbedded exactly in the middle (no matter how long a line is) or at equal intervals (e.g. each 1/3 of the line)
Is there any chance linetypes like that can be created or will I need to resort to lisp and trimming/breaking the lines once drawn?
The problem is related to cartographic symbols defined by the State Geodetic Administration.
I recently did a repair on my C3d 2012 (whcih didn't fix the problem, but I found out what that was and sorted it another way.)
I now find that all express tools commands give me the command unknown error.
I have checked in the cui and the Express tools ARE loaded. I tried unloading and reloading acermain.cuix without success.
I tried adding features from the control panel, but express tools do not show in the list.
I checked the text window after I first opened C3d and it definitely lists that it has loaded express tools yet they do not work.
I tried typing expressmenu in the command line, but it says command unknown.
edit - I tried resetting acetmain.cuix and got the following error:
Unhandled exception has occurred in a component in your application. If yu click continue the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to know how our old Cad guy would take PDF's from BlueBeam and put them in AutoCad.
Example: I added serveral notes to camera port detail in BlueBeam. Somehow our old Cad guy, would copy just that 1 detail and put it in model space. Its really cool because theres layers to the copied detail so you can edit/make changes in AutoCad. The importing kinda messed a few of the lines up, like the arc line caulking joints i made. AutoCad can select the caulking joints i made in BlueBeam and i can then delete them and make a new ones in AutoCad.
