wip if only someone could do the vfx for me (wink wink)
My keyframes for animating rigs arent showing up in roblox default animation edtior does anyone know why
no
How can I get the onion skin?
does anyone have the r15 rig with fingers in blender thats used in robaskeball games?
try this then choose your fbx
Just asking cus it looked stiff to me
hello rando.
Wsp man
whatchu making
Well I have 4 seperate comms I have to do as of rn
A cutscene m1 strings movement anims and emotes
do anyone here have the ghost onion tool?
oh i dont use those
can sm1 take me under their wing to animate better 🙏🏻
how do I get a tool to be a joint in moon animator?
quick question how do yall animate to videos, do you just open it in the reference window in blender and animate key frames off of what the characters are doing in that frame?
probably yeah
ANYTHING to repost
oh yeah if its something new its prob those heavily edited videos like the idol one
those takes awhile
@acoustic cloak Why did you block me? I didn’t deny your animation — your animation looks pretty good. I just meant that your animation is a 1-to-1 copy of Azure Latch
Well if he put alot of time and effort into recreating it that's a pretty rude thing to point out
Evidently hes probably studying the animation trying to replicate a style, id be a bit insulted if someone insinuates im trying to be a 1:1 copy of someone else
Work on posing, anticipation and follow through, and arcs too
Idk what arcs are
You should also never just rotate something on 1 axis, add a bit of variation to give it more oomph
I dont really understand the graph editor
Can u give me a simple anim idea
So I can improve
Don't need graph editor to make good arcs or using multiple axis
Even then if you only do the simple stuff you'll clever improve, you should try the graph editor
Im tried I dont really understand it ik u can use it to exxagerate and that
well then give me a hard one
smth hard for me
?
To answer this, every moving part of your body naturally moves in an "arc"
Its the most natural form of movement in living animals
As an example
ooo got it
@waxen anchor are you taking comms rn
btw how do i keyframe everything so it returns to the normal anim pose at the end
like at the start
So for this punch id say you need to rotate the torso on more then 1 axis and add more follow through and anticipation to the arm
Alright I will try to create tsb m1's
and also how do I keyframe the start
so it can return
Uh either duplicate the frames from the start to the end, or select all bone where the end of your anim is and press alt r
Tysm
Select all bones then press I
u think I should do that?
seems enough of a challenge
You should yeah
That'd be a good challenge for your level
Alright
I'll send it here
And also how do I make like multiple anims or with multiple rigs
Why do the graphs not always affect smth? @keen bronze
anyways first m1
how's that
anyone got any camera positioning tips for cutscenes?
Little anticipation no exaggeration no follow through
And there’s no easing in this either
Follow through means following the motion right? and how is there no exaggeration?
Doesn’t look impactful
Oh yeah cause I dont understand it
the graph editor
ah do u mean the automatic ease?
Srry im new
wdym
Too weak, not enough exaggeration or posing
Watch a Roblox blender tutorial
You need to find an animation tutorial
💔💔
I did he sucked he just explained how to set it up
You can’t be clueless when ur using blender
Then find another one
Look at animation tutorials for anything else
No like find one for animating in blender in general
ah oke

Everything about animation in Blender! How do keyframes work? How to use them in the software? How to read the graph editor? Everything is answered in this video!
Never...
If you can find one you can find another
Unless you wanna watch this one it’s up to you
If you can't spend 44 minutes learning then animstion may not be the path
I think I'll watch it it will prob be worth it
😭
Ya don’t say
Ofc I can lol I just didnt think it would be that complicated lmao
I aint wrong through, you're gonna be spending hours on hours trying to get better
Just comes with the territory
Ye ngl you are right
ofc animation is the path it looks so fun
It’s fun if ur good at it
its fun either way cause u slowly improve
the PRODUCT is fun bro
The process is hell
The process is
NOT fun
Ehhh to each their own I hate having to spend hours or days making something till it looks good
Esp cus I nitpick
Depends on what im animating really
The longer the worse
Cutscenes are what I do best but they take so long
Especially when 10 seconds is 600 frames of well built non buggy work
Thats torture right there
Ita why I price cutscenes so high
Same
My base price is 50 bucks/35k but I guess I can lower it for simpler ones
Not gonna charge 50 for a 3s cutscene
I just do 10 bucks per second assuming its not combat
Why are there so many keyframes
And you forgot a lot more than just easing
uh what more
in between frames?
Look at ur dope editor why are there so many keyframes for that punch
Do you know what the 12 principles of animation are
Nope
You've got too many in-between frames
Go watch up on that
It should be a stickman video it’s been sent here before
By the god Alan becker
The goat
yep found ity
Now watch
And you’ll understand the terms we’ve been using
is that it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDqjIdI4bF4

Yep
alr thanks
Note that squash and stretch can still be done on r6 and r15
You just gotta fake it
It’s like an illusion
Idk how to word it
You gotta manipulate how close the limbs are to each other and shit
making a union object into a mesh is actually the most tedious thing to do why wont it save the texture OH MY GOD I JUST WANT TO ANIMATE MAKAS SCYTHE😭
Or just weld all the parts to 1 handle part
Then the handle part to the hand
Oh hey it has follow through now
indeed
Still needs exaggeration tho
Also it’s very linear
in what part exactly does it need exaggeration
is that bad?
When you punch ur using ur whole body
Ya
Do we want it vector or smth?
With that punch at least
That’s keyframe type
And when I say linear I mean all the limbs are just moving at the same time and ending at the same time
Ahh
Use ur other body parts
I'll fix
To punch
Animate the legs maybe
they dont use legs rlly
And swing the other arm
Ow
There’s a lot of things I can point out
There’s no main thing I’d say
When you punch someone ur other arm isn’t gonna swing backwards like that for example
where would it go?
First of all try imitate ur animation with ur body and see how unnatural it feels to swing ur left arm backwards like that when u punch
And then try punch like the anim in a way that feels more comfortable
Then animate it like that
hm alr
way faster
how about you try to do a fightscene for once
Gng why we hating their shit is tuff asl
Looks much more natural good job
ty
i know the guy, he is great at what he does, im just saying, how about he tries a fight animation, a whole different spectrum of coordination and timing
Now i'll try to make it less linear
You got that
ah rlly?
cause all keyframes are still on same row
Ima try and do a drop kick :sob
😭
wish me luck
20-20-20 drop kick kj recreation tsb? lol
what does that even mean is that the way you are spacing keyframes
nah 20-20-20 is just hte name of the drop kick in tsb for some reason
loll

Even if you master all the hotkeys and tools, animating in Blender can still be tricky if you don't know how to apply proper technique. Learn everything you need to strategically tackle your Animations in Blender 2.83 :) Hope it helps -

oh alr
cuz keyframes are rarely ever evenly spaced aside from cyclic anims
That is NOT A DROP KICK
this isnt horrible
it is lol
it looks like the character is just trying to do a drop kick but he sucks
well.. people can suck
i meant the animation isnt horrible
I wouldn't rlly know if its good or not im new
yo
hi
Bruh
My application was denied because I didn't follow the 12 principles of animation
Thats on you
Guys how much does weapon animation cost
Depends on the developer
Rough average price?
Can't average it, again it depends on the animator
i did
Make a budget then look
Show the anims you applied with
Would it usually go over 1k?
depends on the system
Robux? Absolutely
Abysmally low
For reference most developers for robux go by devex rates, 30k = 100 bucks
So 3k is roughly 10 bucks and you have an idea from there
G
I need to find an animator
ACS is pretty darn easy to do
🤙
How do I export each of my animations separately?
you dont
Since I spent all my rbx on builders and scripters and ui makers
It's gonna be tough finding a cheap guy
ew builders
yeah people who make own models and then put it
I meant builders who make models
Yeah
idk animation dude lol
Yeah just follow the main ones
Squash and Stretch
ANticipation
Staging
Follow through
exaggeration
thats it
Staging doesn't really matter unless your really bad at it
Also appeal
Also secondary action
And arcs
appeal not so much
i hate arcs man
You need personality for it
i do rigs mostly, so people wont see the appeal
blank rigs
what's causing this brahhh
are you exporting the armature
instead of the rig
just did this for no reason but oke
what's the difference?
alr heres how it works
the rig
the ACTUAL orignal bones
track the movement of the armature (the other bones- usually easily readble blocks and stuff)
and in the armsture you can like disable parents to other bones giving you stuff like unparented
but you cant do that with the original since it messes it up
and since the orignal tracks the movement of the armature
it can work out
only cus of the extra skeleton
uhh idk if i explained it well
this was my selection before exporting
i guess i was exporting the armature itself?
2??? man this animation shit is driving me crazy
yes
i’m just a modeler 😭
it gets like that
sure
i'll include that on my next
Yo trust me look at bizfr tutorial about m1s
Prob animation scale is too big for the model
i’m just starting from scratch since it's a quick anim anyway
i must've messed up the transformations along the way
it's starting to work, but i suppose squash and stretch isn't possible brahhh
a
yayayay
anyone up for semi long term?
Goated video but Let’s talk abt your pfp
I lost a bet 😔
6 more days till it’s gone 😔😔😔
Nice so okay I think
6 very long days
It could be better, the arms could be delayed a bit for a more natural look and the torso could bob a bitter more
Im also seeing some snapping for specific poses, may need to reposition the legs or change thr graph
And I think he should change it to cycle itic or whatever
I see
Yeah make the animation cyclic to stop that 0.1 second delay
But only when you're done
Anytime pal
anyone know how to change rigs without the whole thing moving
i've got some arms i want to change for others but when i do everything goes kaput
It nice
what
i meant to say animation
Yo, does anyone know if I can animate the character first and attach the weapon later? Or do I need the weapon already attached to the rig before animating?
in roblox or blender
blender
you can attach it after
yo
how to attach item in blender
im kinda new to blender animating
cooking something up rn
aura monster
blender or roblox?
blender
WHAT
my blender cant do that
....
also how to attach like gun/swords to charracter rig
idk how to do that in blender but i do it in studio
i just export the rig to blender and then rig it to my liking
can u gimme a rig idk how to do taht yk
or can u send me tutorial
in dm
ill have to find a good one
LMAOO THIS SHIT IS SO GOOD
alr tysm
am i cooked?
vfx by you?
everything by me
insane bro
got distracted lol
Ty.
y does this happen
HELP why does it look weird 😭
try to ask in modeling, maybe they know
how do saving anim work
les say i animateed with a katana model
and saved anim
if i put any other partother than katana
it still would look the same
or do i need the katana model
uhm
anyone?
dont animate r15 as a beginner for the love of god
yeah its like starting on god mode difficulty
I made yesterday (I started animating yesterday)
eh r15 isnt THAT hard but its still harder then r6
thats alright
idc
has no understanding of the principles
still doesnt change the fact you shouldnt start animating on r15

atleast watch this
I saw the video of the 12 principles but its just a jump, like you could barely use 2 of them there
I watched it
then how tf did you fuck up the walk that bad 😭
yeah but a standing jump is like
the worst thing to make look good
im pretty sure id struggle with it too
a little bit
idk what i did wrong, now help, btw its not a walk its jogging 
can i see the walk

dude not much i can help with
the posing is horrible
he looks disabled
he looks like a new model of a broken robot lol
what should i do
id recommend starting over
rather then trying to fix that
ik, but what should i do different
yk what, imma just make an animation of a guy training boxing or smth
leg should go up then touch the ground
and the legs shouldnt stay bent all the time
What did i do different
same goes for the arm
his legs are bent all the time and either doesnt raise at all or is raised all the time cant tell
watch a tutorial for walking animation
even a r6 tutorial
would work
oh, i see, he isnt touching the ground..
is it possible to rig roblox tools to blender so i can animate them? like does it work same way as models?
u mean rig things in roblox studio then transfer them to blender?
kind of, i mean can i rig them if they are as a tool not a model
i cant really explain it that well
you mean make your own rig
noo
thenn?
like theres something in studio and u use it for bg skills and its counted as a tool in studio
roll animation
but my weapon that i need to aniamte is in the tool part thing so i need to know if i can animate it same way as i would with normal models
I just started animating isnt that like too complicated
ill send a picture when i get to bronze 2
it may sound complicated but it really isnt but if you want something else jump, walk, punch, run
Alright
are all animations that beginners should do
what rig you using?
ss
lemme save you 🙏
huh
which one to download
would be better
What do u recommned
fk is recommended for beginners
to learn legs better
What's the best overall
but revNewRIg is ik which is easier but makes learning legs harder
there is also another rig but its rlly complicated to understand how to use for a beginner
fk is recommended for you to learn legs better yeah but i personally didnt like using fk as a beginner
so i ended up using ik
all the pros kept pressuring me to switch tho 🙏
Alr
lemme send you its tut
u gotta press run in scripting tho
for it to show u the side thingy
its pretty complicated
so id recommend you js use the ik
until you feel ready
to try and learn how to switch
u can switch mid anim
like your in the middle of an animation adn you've been using ik
then you decide to switch to fk
and continue the animation
.
wdym
when I open the file
yeah?? what opens and closes?
OHHH
you mean it crashes?
ye
what version of blender are you using?
4.0
which version do I need?
5.0
the guy that made this rig doesnt have a yt channel so i assume not
dang sad
So any chance u could explain it better?
like real fast
i suck at explaining things js do what he does in the video to switch if he uses the tiny gray bone that means its fk if he uses the regular thingy then he uses ik
alr
So what anim should I do rolling we said?
TYPICALLY its because its not the steam version
FK for more movement, IK for realism
alr
Ima try and do roll anim
I need to animate body first right?
whatever works for you honestly, but yeah id say torso first
Uh it doesn't let me add default keyframes?
Can I replace this with my avatar?
yeah
hope it helped!

wdym
resentfullll i found a good looking rig want your opinion on it
er
it auto poses
you dont need to do that
works fine for me
odd
ye thats weird
whats the dif between the new and old?
its the same thing js without the fk switch
its always ik if thats what you mean

cube
yoo guys how do i fix a pink rig
pretty complicated so needs the tutorial
my roll anim went great if u wonder
it all went down hill in the middle
the start was alright
I need smth simpler for now
u make it infinite
search a yt tut for walking animation in blender
ye but like 120 frames or smth
oke
thats the W rotation issue
it can be fixed by fliping quaternions
use the shortcut, Alt + F on pose mode
selecting the part that have the rotation issue
how do u animate victim on a cutscene moveset?
wdym?
like when a player get hits by a move, it plays where they get beat up and stuff
but the problem is that, its hard to do
i cant help
use 2 rigs on same file and use actions
i aleardy can do that, but how do u animate the victim smoothly?
make a grab miss variant of the anim, then make the beatdown anim of both the player and victim on the same miss anim but at a frame wheere you want the hit to connect / start the move
.
master
why is weight shifting hard
child of
is a bone constrait if you need to connect 2 diferent bones
without parent them
if that what you need
Wanted to try my hand at making videos with studio, and found this one tutorial
Issue is that he uses moon animator to play the vid and I don't have that (nor do I really wanna spend money) so he can record on OBS, does anyone happen to know of an alternative to moon I can use?
I'd post the link but I'm not allowed yet :C
roblox animator?

I thought the clip editor only let you preview single animations and not whole scene stuff with like cameras n all that
gee man cut me some slack
I'm new to this
how do I do this kind of thing anyways
bet
@burnt dew
@burnt dew @burnt dew @burnt dew @burnt dew @burnt dew @burnt dew @burnt dew @burnt dew @burnt dew @burnt dew @burnt dew
uh
just dont use clip editor
A walk that took me 7 min 💔
try taking longer
what
Why so jolly
cuz he happy
Is there something I'm missing it's the only thing I see in the toolbar
blender
moon<i will hate u if u use that
too lazy to gib feedback rn
that doesn't really help my case
I'm tryna record a thing I already animated
then
record it
:P
I'm starting to think I'm gonna just gonna have to open my wallet for moon atp
bah humbug ill figure it out
the nomu rig was so extremely buggy it was super hard to animate it so its kinda half assed rn
not really the complexity that makes it better
welp idrk im a beginner :p
nice anim
piracy bad :c
not that bad who pays 30$ for a roblox plugin 
maybe i should pay 30$ for a roblox plugin
thats like 3 whopper meals
nah js crackl
3????
that's at least 5
even the more reason to crrack it
yeah
well when you put it like that I think I should be a law abiding citizen out of spite
why not
just
use
blender
fr
blender don't let me recorb :C
i made a cutscene with moon animator end exported it
bro
how tf does one play it
it does, and it even has a render option
rendering don't count
HOW
it doesn't look robloxy enuf
RENDERING MAKES A VIDEO
cons: requires beefy gpu
this is a render
requires a potato chip and maybe max 10 min
or it's gonna take daysz
unless you use cyclic and have insane amounts of lights and stuff
i mean
unless you're rendering a whole city and 10 rigs
on an Arduino Uno
i legit rendered that vid with a horrible gpu, it took 3 mins
btw what gpu?
intel g520
💀
ok well thats pretty bad 💔
never heard a g bro
bro are you zombie man
its that iconic smile man
g=graphics
peak wallpaper
why'd u make em gay
IM SORRY IM SCHIZO
how's one import camera animations from blender to studio anyways
use a part and play the anim on the part?
rig a part as a cam
i thought it was gonna crash 💔
someone gimme an idea on what to animate
me
aint happenning.
homelander
same way you import rig anims
cause
to animate camera you need a rig
you knew that right
a bit more complicated then that?
the cam anims arent exportable if u use moon cam anims
if you can do it
they are
U have to take them from server storage and script them
they aren't u need to script them
u dont export them to roblox
Get camera rig from toolbox -> import to blender & animate -> export to studio ?
it's parented under Camera
i have no clue what you said
U dont export the cam anims to roblox they aren't exportable
like publish them
like a normal anim
ye
or so i have heard
blender would be easier
you can animate the camera in moon animator
but, scripting it idk how
i tried to ask claude
u just make the cam use the parts keyframes
i didn't attatch it to a part ofc
??
Naoya Dash
no
Oke
What's naoya
wh's
get cam rig not from toolbox theres lots of bad ones there
YOU DONT KNOW WHO NAOYA IS?
OO the one with the slick back and blonde or smth
fringe or slickback
I dotn remember
yes
what his dash looks like
any recommendations?
like
afterimages
since he moves in 24 frames
no, play the anim through a cam rig and attach the player's camera to the rig, also fov is a folder that holds the value for each frame
you animate every frame by hand
dawg I dont have after images in blender
not that ik how to do
^
Who has a R15 punching and slamming animation
thats too easy
try gojos run
some of jjs's anims are intentionally ass
or smth
to match the style
what
or at least thats what i think
gameplay wise for sure, but shi jjs doesnt beat tsbs anims
it does
prove
TSB animations are rough
and the emote is till good
they make those too
are you legit trying to compare an emote to jjs overall anims
❌
fym ❌
i just saw that scene lmao
you know what i mean
how bad are u at animation to say ❌
i'm pretty good
show
not tooting my own horn
show
no
that anim is like not even that good cro
wdym
TSB aint any better
i didnt ask u to animate, i asked u to show your best anims
😭
look man
this is some real dumbassy
becuase
genuinely
i only make animations for coms
and dont record em
thats why i said
you know you suck and you know that jjs's anims are ass compared to tsbs 😭 jjs's anims are intentionally simplified and like stiffened
holy copium
or at least i think so, since most of the anims are hot ass
well
they are much better that TSB
hot ass >> cold ass
toxicity in animation channel is such a rare sight
vro
g
I just said
JJS animations are much better than TSB
95*
what is a jjs and tsb
5% of them are like tied with tsb since the 5% are animated by the same animators that tsb has
the remaining 90% are twice as good as TSB's best animation
wait jujutsu shenanigans?
yes
What's tsb then
as averageish as i am, i could crank out TSB animations in max 1 hour
you're
ragebaiting
The Strongest Battleground
generous estimate
i'm being realistic
ok
and object
prove that jjs's anims are better than tsbs, also compare the best vs the best
Never seen their animations what's it about
master is that you??...
dont go and take the oldest and most bullshit moves
yea
well
tf happened 😭
lets see
this server is pure ragebait, full of egoist beginners
real
YOU"RE a BEGINNER YOURSELF
fym
holy ragebait
hold on
no bro 😭
yes "bro"
wait a sec , your the egg
he is NOT a beginner
you're
hop off bro, not trying to ddrag you into this
Have you seen his animation
what happened to your animation helper?
im sorry
no beginner can do ts cro
anyone can make a good animation
dawg his not new
i stopped temporarely cause had an issue, i wanted to go back but some people here make me really not wanna go back here
ngl, gimme the rig and i could crank this out easily
okay this is just ragebaiting atp
ok then, you do. dont make excuses like "i cant animate rn" "i cant record" etc.
can you make a good animation
that's what i suggested, befor e you escalated into this
who gave you this ego dawg
yes you can
can YOU make a good animation? if so then prove
i beleive in you
genuinely want to be that confident 😭
prob
i dont suggest, i told you that i want you to show that you're good when you said you were
and i asked, wdy want me to animate
that prob just goes against your previous statement
what was my statement?
anyone can make a good animation
and my asnwer to that is
