huy again! i tried to remove the hdr and left only FG and it is not helping! what is the problem? is it happens only to me?

Is there any way of making crowds of bones-controlled animals? Is there any way i can make motin-clips out of a hierachy? The manual does'nt help me, so i'm turing to you instead.

Well, i did some white hair to my character, rendered it and it was ok. Then i imported him to a scene with hdr picture mapped on sphere and FG and i discovered that when i render, all the white hair ...

I have a little prob when working in video post for 3dsmax 5.

The effect is clearly visible when i render but it doesnt show up in the .avi i made. My render queue looks like this:

Hi all


I want to do what I would consider a simple task and XSI is driving me crazy.


What I want to do is (in VB scripting I guess) parent one object to another.

Now these objects belong to a ...

Why the hell are they called bones anyhow... makes a mess when asking for help

It depends on what kind of animations you want to make...
If transformations only, then it is a good idea to select and animate all the objects at once and then
offset each animation in the Dope Shee ...

I mean like, are there shortcuts to boning so you get the result you want?

What do ya mean repeat?
You could use maxscript to record a macro of sorts and run the script on each object

Whats the easiest way to bone a human?

Hi
I'm trying to clone my object so that the clone rotates around a given point.
How can I do it?
Right now I'm trying to move the pivot to the correct place, but when I start rotating It moves back.

hm.. ok..
but anyway.. making the clusters invisible with goup properties would be very cool.

Strange
Why would they do something like this?

Hm.. strange..
Then why would I need the ability to group them?
I can't move the group like in max. I can not set the properties.
It seems pretty usless.

In 3ds max when I make an instance copy of an object, if I modify it I also modify the original object.
How can I do the same thing in xsi?
I've tried to duplicate as instances and I can't edit the in ...

Hi.

What is the problem?
