[eternal meadow]

i wasnt saying that was a shotgun, its a BFG 50.

[stiff oak]

[livid crater]

https://gyazo.com/2625866656fa062b9700e8a0ccb44459

If IK is being added to Moon...

[livid crater]

https://gyazo.com/e6524a9920a651d2ea94f6e257be4a0a

[eternal meadow]

How do i import a dummy model

[livid crater]

Gpo gatling moment

Some torso movement to the sides would be good

Also the way the frames on the mesh arms

It's kinda weird the timing

It's not like, consistent?

It kinda has a small break after some punches, and gets back to it

[atomic pond]

hi

someone help

So I haven't animated for ~3 months and I want to finish an old animation now that school is ending

but the arms suck

https://gyazo.com/74e5d1ee5d0cefc369bc029af293f25d

wrong link earlier mb

see the legs and feet are fine but

not the arms

slowed it down

[stiff oak]

You might just have to redo the keyframes for the arms

[willow egret]

camera shake fnfal

[stiff oak]

might be a bit excessive, but not bad

[eternal meadow]

@stiff oak bruh

[nimble sierra]

What is IK?

Inverse something?

[raw dragon]

kinematics

[nimble sierra]

oh

how do you use it?

[gray herald]

I know

[nimble sierra]

o

can you tell me how?

[gray herald]

???

W h a t

[nimble sierra]

IK

how to use it

[gray herald]

In what

I thought someone say ik and u don't know what it mean

Ik = I know

XD

[nimble sierra]

oh

i meant Inverse Kinematics.

[gray herald]

What is it

;-;

[nimble sierra]

some sort of a physics system or sumthin' i guess.

I just heard about it.

[gray herald]

Is it in roblox or another softwar

Software

[nimble sierra]

Roblox

[gray herald]

Have never used

[nimble sierra]

oh.

[gray herald]

I didn't use all Roblox stuffs

;-;

[nimble sierra]

oh

[gray herald]

I can script normal and animate but animate is bad

[nimble sierra]

i can't even script

i have like- 1 or 2 brainscells

[gray herald]

Everyone can script if they actually tried or wanted

[nimble sierra]

i tried too

[gray herald]

Scripting isn't hard if u tried

Same

[nimble sierra]

i gave up after some time

[gray herald]

I learned how to script decent in 1 month

[nimble sierra]

i can only do local scripting.

[gray herald]

Not only watching tutorials

Sometime u have to do alone

[stiff oak]

IK is a way for the rig to calculate how the movements in one part affect movements in another

[nimble sierra]

tell me how

[nimble sierra]

oh

[gray herald]

I was also have to do alone

If ur don't know something's or get error

Ask peoples

That's why there's #📜︱scripting-help-classic

[nimble sierra]

oh

[gray herald]

And I usually tell peoples and ask in there if I don't know

And if u don't know how to use something like a remote event

[proven panther]

Amogus

[nimble sierra]

The only thing I am decent at is particles

[gray herald]

Think it easier

When idk how to use remote event

I think about a rc car

[nimble sierra]

lol

[gray herald]

And local script is the remote to control can

Car*

And if I want it to move forward I fired the remote event

[nimble sierra]

https://tenor.com/view/calculation-math-hangover-allen-zach-galifianakis-gif-6219070

[gray herald]

And the car is a script

But u can think about something else easier

[nimble sierra]

i can only think of advanced things

[gray herald]

Or if ur not good at scripting

Try something else

Like animating

Modeling

Or gfx

Or vfx

[nimble sierra]

i wanna atleast try this

[nimble sierra]

and this

[gray herald]

Yea

[nimble sierra]

and this

[gray herald]

Yea alot of scripter usually doesn't good at these and they hire peoples

I don't hire since I try making my own game xD

[nimble sierra]

oh

[gray herald]

But if they want to help I'll let them

[deft hound]

Do you know how to make this bigger?

[eternal meadow]

** You are now Level 1! **

[nimble sierra]

What is that?

[gray herald]

Why you need it to be bigger

It doesn't matter

[nimble sierra]

is it beams?

[deft hound]

It makes it easier for me to select the parts with that

[eternal meadow]

no

its something with

animation editor

[gray herald]

Yea

[nimble sierra]

oh!

Grid,

k

[deft hound]

you know how I can make it bigger
?

[nimble sierra]

I don't use Animation Editor,

[gray herald]

And I don't know if there's a way to make it bigger

[nimble sierra]

i use moon animator.

[gray herald]

Yea most peoples first animating use moon animator

But if they wants smooth and advanced they will choose blender animating

It's very smooth tbh

[nimble sierra]

ik

but blender is something my brain can't take

[gray herald]

Have u ever tried modeling or animating

[deft hound]

blender is very difficult

[nimble sierra]

i have tried animating

im just bad at it.

[gray herald]

The animation good?

[nimble sierra]

i dunno if they are good

like that is something other people should decide.

[gray herald]

Show me some of it

[nimble sierra]

my pc is laggy doe

[gray herald]

XD

[nimble sierra]

but i can try finding one.

[gray herald]

This is what I was making in 1 months and half

https://streamable.com/668lxp

Not the best but I like it

[nimble sierra]

o

i like it too

[gray herald]

Yea and I need better animating

So Im still trying

After a ~3 month break, I fixed an old animation. There are still many flaws (asymmetry, etc.) but I'm done for today.
However, if you guys like it I'll tweak and finish it as a short film https://t.co/6zeW87lqNW

Those are the guidelines for rank 2, across all categories

be a fucking god

[red haven]

Just out of curiosity..

[eternal meadow]

you cant even be a3

alright guys heres how to get a2

step one

go on blender

[eternal meadow]

step 2

[mighty shale]

congratulations

[eternal meadow]

graph editor

step 3

[mighty shale]

you now have a2

[eternal meadow]

24 fps - 60 fps

[stiff oak]

We're going to have the best 4-5+ members in each category as ⭐ rank

[eternal meadow]

step 3, make a terrible animation and use graph editor to make it a good one

[stiff oak]

So there should be enough to rank all other work

[mighty shale]

i have no idea what graph editor is

[eternal meadow]

🤢

[proven panther]

i deleted half my resources trying to animate on blender

I couldnt even move my camera

[mighty shale]

the skill system is getting reworked

[eternal meadow]

And get the role

[mighty shale]

that's why

I thought it was "ask an a2 or a3 to rank you and mod gives you the role"

[stiff oak]

Animation has been one of those categories where people have been generally ranked too low

[eternal meadow]

Proof?

[mighty shale]

you

[stiff oak]

Well, look at how many a3s there are...

compared to the 45 rank 3 builders

[mighty shale]

true

also from what ive seen

you get judged a lot more harshly for animation roles

[livid crater]

Building or Animating, both get judged harshly

Its just, you can tell an animator what he can improve

easier then what a builder can

"use more parts"

"make it look good"

[mighty shale]

builder critisism :

"restart the entire thing"

[stiff oak]

Nah, it's the same for all categories

[mighty shale]

"looks like ass"

[eternal meadow]

Falco, hello, protogent furry red guy and some others

[stiff oak]

You have to be skilled in it to tell someone what they need to improve

[eternal meadow]

But that's kinda like "high a1 = budget a2"

[mighty shale]

but a2 animations don't need to look like they're a3 ones

a2 animations can still have some flaws

[stiff oak]

No, they don't

a2 is "intermediate"

[livid crater]

a1 is basically begginer right?

[stiff oak]

you know enough about what you're doing to start making half-decent stuff

yes it is

[mighty shale]

yeah

[eternal meadow]

Yes

[livid crater]

then why

did i have it

for so long

🗿

[mighty shale]

cause ur bad

gg

[eternal meadow]

Yes

Bad

Trol

[stiff oak]

because we're just unveiling the rank changes today

[livid crater]

This whole ranking is just bad

[eternal meadow]

Proof?

[livid crater]

Ask your

poop

[eternal meadow]

Balls

[stiff oak]

I don't disagree. That's why we held the vote, but it was overwhelmingly rejected by the community.

[eternal meadow]

[livid crater]

There should be about 3-4 people, that should be ranking others

Those should be higher people

in their category

[mighty shale]

it's not that skill tiers need to be removed,

just needs to change on how to obtain them

[livid crater]

Because they actually understand their own subject

[eternal meadow]

"Meex getting ratio'd hard" incident*

[stiff oak]

there's going to be 4-5+ star ranks for each category at all times

no more than about 15 max

[mighty shale]

wait

does that mean its a constant battle royale

[livid crater]

I'm a 3.5-4 B)

[mighty shale]

like if you're outmatched by an a3 and you're a star animator

do you get fuckin booted

lmao

[livid crater]

Who's ranking people tho

[eternal meadow]

I hope its not the a3's

We all know that they're dead

[stiff oak]

it will be the new star ranks

well, it's all laid out in the doc

[spiral fjord]

Adding more ranks?

[stiff oak]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1owWUu1r5RWTVKtwEb7_zACSiwncYqBGo12Py2X1hMyU/edit

[livid crater]

As long as its not people that can't distinguish an a1 from a a2

🗿

Ok those 4 star ranking sounds good

[stiff oak]

I may not be a good animator, but I can distinguish beginner from intermediate from advanced

[eternal meadow]

So, why did bad animator get a2. I forgot

[livid crater]

Then why didn't you give me a2 when I showed me R15 animations

that got me into R15

[stiff oak]

because I've been working on this

[livid crater]

am goated

You told me to do something

"complex"

[mighty shale]

prika

[livid crater]

Thats why lol

[mighty shale]

didnt you cry

for a2

[livid crater]

what does prika even tho

i forgot

[mighty shale]

oh

i guess my messages got deleted

[livid crater]

spam = auto delete

yes

[mighty shale]

because i didn't put a second fucking g

in gg

[eternal meadow]

I was grinding for it for almost 2 months

[mighty shale]

proof?

[livid crater]

proof?

[eternal meadow]

Totally didn't cry

[livid crater]

Why the fuck is my camera locked on studio

[eternal meadow]

[livid crater]

like my right mouse no workey

[eternal meadow]

Wdym

[mighty shale]

bad animator

do you have

moon animator

[livid crater]

i use moon and editor

[mighty shale]

check your moon camera settings

[livid crater]

i just use whatever i feel like using

[mighty shale]

it's happened to me before

[livid crater]

moon isn't opened tho

[mighty shale]

yeah but it still glitches your camera

[livid crater]

Where do I check the cam settings?

[mighty shale]

why? dont fuckin know

just look around

[eternal meadow]

Why is a2 this dark green

[mighty shale]

to represent for hire

ez

[eternal meadow]

I wish fore hire or a2 was way different

[mighty shale]

for hire should be orange

[eternal meadow]

Jojo animator on a2 is impossible 🤢

[mighty shale]

wait

there's no jojo animators on a2

right

r i g h t

[eternal meadow]

Yes

There is none

Good

[mighty shale]

good

[eternal meadow]

New rule: ban jojo animations showed in this channels

[mighty shale]

i support

[eternal meadow]

Please lester from gta 5, add it 😭

Im very certaint that I will be 46 years old when an a3 finally talks in this channel

[stiff oak]

start showing your work, we need more a3s

[eternal meadow]

Who

[mighty shale]

yeah who

[livid crater]

Time to make animation that will give me A3

[mighty shale]

already making one

ez

i present to you

my a3 animation https://streamable.com/9a3mbi

[stiff oak]

dafuq? lmao

[eternal meadow]

You made an a3 animation, now all you need to do is spam ping an a3 and wait for them to respond

[mighty shale]

LOL

[lunar vine]

Poggers

[livid crater]

goated

[mighty shale]

xd

[livid crater]

@mighty shale

check my

version out

https://gyazo.com/d86cc78a109229598a6b506f07ac9667

i got no clue

how to make the air part smooth

[mighty shale]

use blender for the air part

[stiff oak]

whoops, I forgot to take a1 from you guys...

all fixed now

[potent oxide]

hes a2??

[mighty shale]

hi

i evolved

[potent oxide]

hi

good job

ill watrmark this later

[mighty shale]

gonna go sleep

aa

[gray herald]

Dam

[crisp monolith]

If were going by "beginner" and "intermidate" and "advanced" almost every mid-high tier a2 that was ranked through the previous system would be considered a3

Now that I think about it, ranking was hard to the point where you could be good and you'd still be only mid-high a1

I guess the a3's are moving up to star rank then

[mighty shale]

hi

[crisp monolith]

hello a1 moment

oh

oh

When did you get a2

Congrats

[mighty shale]

I got it earlier

lemme get the anim

[potent oxide]

ikr lmao

also hi reborn

[crisp monolith]

Hello

[mighty shale]

This https://streamable.com/jrpgit

Is what gave me a2

[crisp monolith]

I mean

[potent oxide]

no offense but how did u get a2

[mighty shale]

Lemme get the message

[potent oxide]

it was an a1 mod

right

that decided it was good enough

[crisp monolith]

So what you're saying is

Ranks got nerfed

[mighty shale]

basically yeah

but hey

[potent oxide]

bruh

[mighty shale]

Still got my a2

[crisp monolith]

[mighty shale]

go away

[potent oxide]

in title

yeah

[mighty shale]

Or I’ll be forced

[potent oxide]

in spirit

ehhhhhhh

[mighty shale]

To show my star animation

[potent oxide]

also i watermarked my anim above

[eternal meadow]

Wow i missed out on this cause i cant pay sad

[potent oxide]

lol

[mighty shale]

Reborn is typing

[crisp monolith]

I mean, it gives people more opportunities but jesus . If were going by this were going to have like 10 a2's by a few days

[potent oxide]

ong tho

ranks would mean nothing at that point

[mighty shale]

Ey in my defense

[potent oxide]

u would need sub tiers

LOL

[mighty shale]

A1 was defined as beginner level

I’m not a beginner at animation

[potent oxide]

but theres a high a1

right?

[mighty shale]

Technically I think

[potent oxide]

and oyu didnt get verified by an a2 iirc

[mighty shale]

[potent oxide]

you got verified by an a1

lolol

[crisp monolith]

Yeah but a2 is defined as intermediate, the gap between an a1 and a2 was pretty high

Well not intermediate

More like "experienced"

[mighty shale]

It still is defined as intermediate

[potent oxide]

i like how ranks for animator is so high

like a1 is more like low intermediate

and a2 is like pretty experienced

[crisp monolith]

Then we got a3's being top tiers

[mighty shale]

Yeah it’s rare that I see a true beginner animator 1

[red haven]

cough me

[mighty shale]

They usually have some animation experience beforehand

[potent oxide]

its ok you'll get there

[red haven]

maybe

[potent oxide]

i've only been animating for around a year with a few month long breaks

and i got the hang of animating

[mighty shale]

I’ve only been animating for a few months

[potent oxide]

make sure you're having fun tho

[mighty shale]

I’ve gotten pretty damn good at it

Also yeah I take breaks

[crisp monolith]

I don't dislike the system, I just liked how ranking wasn't something easy you could do. Like you actually had to go on timeskips to reach that stuff, now jimmy is gonna reach it because he made a below average jojo animation

[mighty shale]

So I don’t burn myself out

[potent oxide]

yeah i used to burn out every week

and then keep working

[mighty shale]

No there’s still gonna be actual ranking

Like you need to earn it

[potent oxide]

if i see an r63 jojo anim get a2

im leaving

[mighty shale]

Reborn is typing

[crisp monolith]

Yes but it'll probably be way easier compared to how it was before, unlike before it'll probably be some guy that animated for a few months

[mighty shale]

Like me

[crisp monolith]

Or some guy who doesn't even know the principals/terms of animation

Or some guy that doesn't even know what body mechanics are

Oh god

I hope this goes well

[mighty shale]

You see

I’m a simple man

I make thing

Polish thing

Make happy

👍

[crisp monolith]

Fair

Though, ranking may not be that different from before

You could say they're just filling in the gaps from before

[mighty shale]

Yeah it’s not gonna be like you need an insanely good animation to reach it

You just need an understanding and an animation showing you understand

[crisp monolith]

Before the cap between an a1 and an a2 was pretty big, with new system reaching a2 as an a1 shouldn't be as hard because now the gap isn't as big

[mighty shale]

Still has to be a quality animation tho

[crisp monolith]

So new a3 is pretty much old a2, and new a4 is pretty much old a3

So it's the same as before but with less gaps I guess

Ok that could work

[mighty shale]

Like I’m gonna be honest

I don’t know how I got a2

[crisp monolith]

You probably got a2 based on the new ranking system

If we were going by old system you're still mid-high a1

[mighty shale]

Like I know for a fact I was a mid-high a1

Now I’m a low a2 ig

[crisp monolith]

Atleast they're adding an a4 though

So there will be room for a3s/a2s to move too

If they lowered the ranking difficulty but still kept a1,a2 and a3 only

I would actually lose it

[potent oxide]

imagine

we'd actually have to form imaginary subtiers

like how we do rn

[crisp monolith]

Exactly, speaking of which who even created the whole low,mid and high tier thing

Was it me?

[potent oxide]

probs

[mighty shale]

no idea

[potent oxide]

bc its such a general term

like you cant put a low a1 in the same category as a high a1

[crisp monolith]

Adding on to why I would lose it, it's because all the a2/a3's from before literally wouldn't have room to breath and overall would just be highly misranked, less experienced animators would start flooding the ranks and we'd just be stuck there in a2/a3 while some 13 year old makes the same jojo animation. The gap between us and the newer people would be too high but we wouldn't be able to actually move up a rank because there would be no other. Which is why I'm glad a4 is being added

[mighty shale]

Jojo animators need a special role

A -1

A0.5

[crisp monolith]

Plus, a4 would help keep the standards while also leaving lesser gaps for people

[mighty shale]

Also jokes on you

I’m 14

ez

[potent oxide]

i mean

it depends on the quality

like noob0 does jojo anims

but they're kinda hot tho

[crisp monolith]

Yeah

[potent oxide]

i agree

like ppl with actual experience would just be drowned out

and the generalized with the bad ones

[crisp monolith]

And without a4 role the quality of animators would just start to sink

[mighty shale]

Like even though it’s the same type of animation ,

[crisp monolith]

A2 would be a3, a1 would be a2, etc etc

[mighty shale]

You can tell which one had more effort

[potent oxide]

exactly

[potent oxide]

bro imagine

[mighty shale]

Fuck it
