Any thoughts or comments are much appreciated.
in viewport the track is solid. no problems. if i render a single frame in ipr it still lines up. when i render maya batch it pops.
here is a playblast and a render so you can see the difference in the track….why is it doing this???
What i want is for right in the middle of the explosion, everything to freeze – all the glass shards, smoke, fire, cloth, everything. problem is i cant just do a freeze frame in comp because I want the camera to move through the debris. So basically what I am asking is a way to pause the simulation so that the scene isnt paused but the simulations are. Im thinking its possible after caching *which i have done* and using the Trax editor but I havent used that in maya yet, as im not a character animator (and as i understand it after looking for some answers on the net, thats predominently what its used for)
The only other thing i can think of is to go into the cache, and find the frame I want the freeze on, and copy/paste it and extend the amount of them to however long i want the pause… but with multiple seperate caches and a 10 second shot, thats WAY too much work.
any info is much obliged!
I need your opinions buddies. Can we say that trax animation is obsolete now that Maya offers animation layers? How would u compare both?
I ask this because i want to advice someone to set a workflow for their production, so it is very important for me.
Thank you
i’m trying to blendshape a text. As i know you can only blendshape in maya if the verticies between each blend object is equal. Is there easy a workaround for this, e.g. to blend different letters into each other?
Thanks
