problem with physics tab

[hollow rover]

this is in the physics tab btw

sorta curious about the video in question as there are many ways to handle physics, but i suspect your issue is that you are editing the inputs, and the video was editing the outputs

generally the hair phys params are manipulated soly on output like this

oh i just saw, thank you for pointing it out. also, i am new to L2D and i want to animate illustrations. do i go about it the same way as if i were rigging a model?

[thorny musk]

yes, its similar, you would rig the motion sort of like a model, obviusly a bit simpler usually, then use the animate tab which will give you a keyframe timeline where you manipulate the parameters instead of via tracking

okay thank you, thats what i thought. are there any channels in this server that specialize in the animation tab itself?

this is a good stream to reference for animation, but its a stream, not a guide, so its long https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lydIw8siEFA&pp=ygUVbGl2ZTJkIGFuaW1hdGVkIGVtb3Rl

this is shorter and to the point https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYJ8SKzTIcg

that's fine, thank you very much for helping me!

animated emotes are what i recommend as a first project for dealing with animations specifically.

The same system can be used for making looping animations for models, or using a model in an animation without tracking, but the emote is good to learn with

noted, i will bookmark these videos for future reference
