[patent quest]

Probably better for both the employer and dev to come up with a good price than to post one

that's just me tho 🤷🏾

[exotic cedar]

yeah that’s against the rules

you gotta pay atleast 400 robux i think

and gotta say the price

in the post

[patent quest]

Oh, I've did it for a while and I haven't gotten in trouble so 🗿

I might just be built different

like for clothing, I'm not paying more than 100 robux for a shirt

that's kinda a rip off, when most shirts cost 50 or less

[exotic cedar]

yeah moderations kinda lacking on that

[patent quest]

hopefully the keep lacking

so I can keep bagging

this is so realistic

[fallow moth]

[runic scaffold]

Bolt?

[eternal meadow]

like no force idk

[compact merlin]

it probably will tbh

[runic scaffold]

Ooh

It was an old animation, havent animated 3 months now cause stuff to do

[vivid compass]

yes it would

any animation counts for rank 1

as it shows you have a basic understanding of how to animate

[timid solstice]

sry why i can't tape and the animate the violin bow

pls help me

[eternal meadow]

This could be interpreted in two ways

[patent quest]

[dreamy panther]

I cant use the move tool to move a part on my model to animate. is there a way to fix this?

I used this animator before and it worked fine. I don't know why it's not working all of a sudden

[eternal meadow]

default animator got a graph editor update

how's that?

[exotic cedar]

default animator can honestly make better stuff than moon with the new update

[keen zephyr]

only as singular animations

cutscenes they still got nothin on moon

[dreamy panther]

So is there a way to fix the move tool?

[grave magnet]

p good, bolt slap felt kinda weak

[strong sundial]

animation editor is made for game animations after all

[tardy egret]

if u cant tell

[odd sun]

how do you make joints on a rig with models? I have a sword that I want to make a joint with but it doesn't allow me to make a joint with the model. Do I have to ungroup all of the meshes and then weld them 1 by 1?

[calm lagoon]

wip

k

[hot prism]

anybody know what these know action things are

[tardy egret]

anyone know any good animation plug ins

im just using the boring old roblox one rn

[random oracle]

Do you have moon animator

[tardy egret]

nope

[potent oxide]

priority

pretty sure action4 is highest and core is lowest

like if an action anim and idle anim were playing at the same time the action anim will appear instead of the idle

[eternal meadow]

there is none

[potent oxide]

i think he means within studios prika

[normal quail]

"the dudes arm was floating slightly off his body, this animation sucks."

you say that to people?

[eternal meadow]

The animation itself is pretty good

Dunno why he gave it a 1/10

It's a 8 and half/10 for me

[potent oxide]

pretty sure its just a joke

[eternal meadow]

Could be

[normal quail]

"if its not realistic its terrible"

someday he will say that

[eternal meadow]

You guys animate with a keyframe every 2 frames?

[normal quail]

no

every 1 frame

[eternal meadow]

Chad

10 weeks of work for 10 second animation momeny

[normal quail]

[normal quail]

[tardy egret]

how do you use moon animator 😭

[keen sentinel]

you know what i did

i stopped using shitty roblox animating stuff and used blender instead

best choice of my life 👍

[eternal meadow]

6/10 for me

[eternal meadow]

floaty. b2i movement is too wobbly and mag hit is too stiff.

[manic kindle]

its supposed to be that LOL what else would he have done u dont hold on gun with the side of ur arm

[grave magnet]

good stuff

[potent oxide]

[tardy egret]

im trying my best

[jagged bay]

okok not all

[tardy egret]

[jagged bay]

dont use CTRL

[tardy egret]

whaaa

[jagged bay]

it wont work

CTRL doesnt work

use SHIFT

[tardy egret]

thanks!

kinda weird but thank you

How do you delete keyframes in moon animator

[glass pollen]

not appreciated

[jagged bay]

its an old message

[jagged bay]

del key

Delete key

on ur keyboard

(see how dumb they are?)

[tardy egret]

Bro what why

Thanks tho

[eternal meadow]

He’s just getting started

You can’t just call a large group of people dumb because they’re new to something

A mere role cannot display their intellect

👍

[jagged bay]

Alright alright fine

Im guilty

[eternal meadow]

To the gallow you go

[mild token]

not all tho

sum are really good and deserve higher rank

some are just lucky

and sum do things not animating mostly

[digital raptor]

Movement priority is good for viewmodels animation or tool gun animations,they make weapon parts run, if it was set to idle priority only the original humanoid parts would response to the animation (means that arms,legs,torso,head would response in the animation, not the connected gun), Movement priority is also popular in most of the animations you see today in roblox games.

[manic kindle]

ong pyr said he was gonna vouch for a2 and then vouched for a1 :(

a1 is literally if u know how to move a character

i saw some mf move his arm forward and get a1

the standards are garbage

Would it be better to animate on roblox studio or blender

Because in most cases I see that the blender animation are more like, fluid

technical animators are basically giga chads

[zinc cobalt]

what version of blender u guys use

[eternal meadow]

i use moon

** You are now Level 4! **

but just use the most updated version of blender since it has all the features you would want

i think/hope

[zinc cobalt]

alr

im looking at a few tutorials on youtube and theyre using older versions of blender so i was wondering if theres a specific version most people use

[manic kindle]

no they probably uploaded the video when that version was out

[zinc cobalt]

oh i see

thanks both of you

[iron cedar]

NOICE

[manic kindle]

barrel dips down a little too low on the recovery but other than that i love ur animation style

[iron cedar]

im thinking of starting to animate should i use moon animator?

[manic kindle]

moon animator is good for starter

start with moon

and later on you can upgrade to blender

moon can teach you the basics of animation

[eternal meadow]

or just dont start with moon at all

[manic kindle]

prika who hurt u

why u always hating'

[potent oxide]

moon looks a lot more simple compared to blender

[calm lagoon]

i started with blender

literally the only "hard part" was rigging

animating is bread and butter

animating in blender is no different from moon

it just has more tools

[eternal meadow]

even if you export it how are you supposed to know what file, how are you going to add it to a rig

what do i do if i mess something up

[rocky drum]

try again

[eternal meadow]

what if it fails to export properly

multiple times

[rocky drum]

won't happen

[eternal meadow]

there is too many questions i have

** You are now Level 4! **

might as well just stick with modeling

[rocky drum]

well stop worrying and just do it

[eternal meadow]

how am i supposed to do it if i dont know how 😭

and my animations are terrible

[zinc cobalt]

gordon ramsay did not become a star chef in a day

[worn bronze]

can someone help me make a demon slayer sword animation

[rocky drum]

buddy just get into it

don't even think

like seriously if you stay theyre worrying then youre never gonna get anywhere

[eternal meadow]

well yea i kinda havent gone anywhere, a friend asked me to make something for them so i learned to animate/ model, by the time i finished, they was like nah dont need it anymore.

and no one needs me to do anything

which makes it not as fun

because when i try to make something because i want to

i get bored in seconds

[manic kindle]

#sources channel

[rocky drum]

if you are only doing this for other people then don't try.

it's hard if you're not doing it for your own interests

[eternal meadow]

the problem is i put more effort into it when i do it for someone else

like look at this

[eternal meadow]

when i first learnt to model

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/974887162027868231/974887262963761193/unknown.png

this was the thing my friend asked for

(first model i'd ever created

the second one is another one some asked for

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/974887162027868231/974890685994008596/unknown.png

nail bat

then the next one is one i made for fun

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/974887162027868231/974890448449572874/unknown.png

you can tell the last one is worse

then the others

@rocky drum

same with the animations

because

when someone asks you to make something

it useally means it will be used

[rocky drum]

strange

[eternal meadow]

and not be wasted

when your making it for yourself

its never going to get used

(because i aint no game dev

[eternal meadow]

thats what the problem is

annoying part is

no one will say yes to

some random person

who is offering to do it for free

[rocky drum]

then apply for jobs

work on a team

[eternal meadow]

bad part about that is they are always asking for something to be done

i useally like to take breaks after i make something

say that in the #📱︱gui channel

[random oracle]

#👷︱for-hire #💵︱hiring

[eternal meadow]

also last problem is when i see people with better skills

most of the time they'd useally brag

in the server i was in before

which made me just not want to do it in general

but i still have the skills

just havent been using them

very well done

[eternal meadow]

#💵︱hiring

smh

[royal basalt]

You know how can i move torso in R6 Dummy without move all the body pls?

[eternal meadow]

Just move all the body parts while animating

with moon you can just hold shift to select multiple parts

[royal basalt]

For exemple i want to make idle animation and i want to move thé torso for breath

[royal basalt]

Oh thx ! I animate with Animation Editor

[eternal meadow]

Moon is much better

👍

[royal basalt]

Mhhh okay i will test thx !

if anyone here can contact any roblox dev please let them know how FUCKING GARBAGE their animation tools are

[eternal meadow]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/316108757727969280/975425371518410813/My_Video3.mp4

i tweaked some things from last time

[opal snow]

once again the classic animation editor is superior to the new one ONLY because you can actually fucking select and move parts in custom character rigs

[eternal meadow]

i dont use the roblox animation stuffs

i use moon

but i should get off of moon

[strong sundial]

theres gonna be someone thats gonna tell you to use blender

[iron cedar]

oi

anybody know how to animate in blender?

ping me!

[eternal meadow]

** You are now Level 8! **

[iron cedar]

also what kind of animation should i start with

like attack

walking

ect

[royal basalt]

Si in Animation Editor u know how to only move the torso in R6 Dummy pls?

[eternal meadow]

** You are now Level 3! **

[royal basalt]

Thx thx

[opal snow]

https://gyazo.com/23023a0dcb3a999964e2c73bbb8cddc5

being forced to use clasic editor is a travesty

yeah ive been demanded to use blender many times by now

[eternal meadow]

I was just about to say that but I scrolled up

[opal snow]

but i just do not want to learn

[eternal meadow]

💀

Well if you won’t want to then you’ll have to stick with that

[opal snow]

its not like roblox editor is completely unusable

its just its fucking annoying how roblox foregoes fixing their shit because they know majority of developers will use a 3rd party program anyways

so that leaves people like me having to deal with their shit

[eternal meadow]

You think Roblox cared about developers?

[opal snow]

once upon a time they did

[eternal meadow]

They stopped doing that long ago

And holy shit the profit they get from capitalising talents is just awful

All I want to see now is Roblox going bankrupt

[iron cedar]

a new anim is loading

rn

[opal snow]

as soon as i have time to learn blender im on that shit rn

[eternal meadow]

I highly encourage you to learn blender

Not that you have to

[opal snow]

yea

[eternal meadow]

But it’s going to be so useful

[opal snow]

ive always planned to

[eternal meadow]

Good luck on that grind bro

[opal snow]

thank u

so u use it right

[iron cedar]

i have no idea how to use blender

[opal snow]

what haveu animated

[eternal meadow]

Let’s see

Horrible walk cycle because that was the first time I animated in blender

2 scuffed punch combos

A grappling hook move

A sword stab

Horrible M4A1 viewmodel

Mediocre that one shotgun I forgot

Kinda ok kick combo

Mediocre rapier combo

[iron cedar]

i got a new anim! i call it virus

[eternal meadow]

A full animation kit of the headhunter from katana zero which I never got to use because of my editing software is going ham on my poor potato case

Someone doing a football shoot

[tawdry lake]

not meant to be real, just for practice

feedback greatly appreciated

also its backwards which is a big oof

[eternal meadow]

Ok

Move gun in hand

[iron cedar]

how would you animate a gun separately like that? @tawdry lake

[tawdry lake]

wdym?

[tawdry lake]

it does

[iron cedar]

i mean

like slide and mag and base

how do u separate it

and still move it

[tawdry lake]

you gotta attach the mag and the other stuff to the handle

join in place

[iron cedar]

oh ok

[tawdry lake]

ensure animatable is true

[iron cedar]

so ungroup and join together

how do you ensure animatable?

[tawdry lake]

clean the model first

[iron cedar]

k

[tawdry lake]

its already animatable

or should be

[iron cedar]

k thx!

@tawdry lake it still wont bind with the dummy's arm

srry if im wasting time

[tawdry lake]

not model

part

[iron cedar]

but theres no 1 part

[tawdry lake]

make sure the arm of your choice is the bast part

[iron cedar]

?

im new to animation

im still learning what is the "bast part"

[tawdry lake]

Part

not model

then do

select Mag then Handle and join in place

then select slide then handle and join in place

and then select the hand of your choice and then the handle

make sure the gun is positioned where you want it to be

[iron cedar]

oh ok thanks and sorry for wasting time!

[iron cedar]

when i say kinda i mean i did it for fun

[proper ruin]

https://gyazo.com/a7334a263a39460a5a1513f9b2decd4a.mp4 there should be more keyframes with more posing

[iron cedar]

yeah

i did that for fun

but the others were for practice

also that looks really good!

so ima take notes

just a min

back

[proper ruin]

heres a posing referance you have probably seen 5 million times before but idc

[sage portal]

Oh

[iron cedar]

HOW DO I BRING THIS BACK UP I MADE AN OK ANIMATION AND NOW I CANT SAVE IT!

my moon animator is behind the studio line thingy at the bottom

[eternal meadow]

I hate linear

[iron cedar]

heres the animation btw

[iron cedar]

me too i like bounce and constant

bye

i just realized this could be a tp cutscene!

[eternal meadow]

Based

[iron cedar]

?

im new i dont have a clue what based is

[glass pollen]

based a s f

[iron cedar]

im still confused

do you mean how i use linear and im criticizing it?

sorry im such an idiot i get it now

yeah

for showcasing and practicing

but i would use linear for an actual anim

i might be making a game soon

[glass pollen]

based

[potent oxide]

idk

[sleek moat]

I am currently in the process of animating a character who elongates his arm by extending a part with the same shape as the arm. I am using moon animator and Motor6D's for it. I add a keyframe with the normal size arm, and another with the elongated one. I thought this would make it gradually extend. Instead it made all keyframes of the part the elongated size. Anyone have a fix?

[plucky coral]

Not mine but i love this so much

[last locust]

why cant i use the move tool in my anim editor anymore?

[grave magnet]

you can add the scale property to the timeline

just select the arm when adding to the timeline and check the scale property

[sleek moat]

motor6d makes it so it’s part of the character and it’s for a game, so having the part separate will not work in game

can i add a scale property to part of a rig?

[grave magnet]

no. don't make it separate

you add the scale property for the arm

[sleek moat]

but if i export the animation to add to a game the part wouldnt go along with it

[sleek moat]

do you know how i can export an animation with a part?

[grave magnet]

i don't know gameplay stuff, i only animate guns

[sleek moat]

oh okay

[eternal meadow]

** You are now Level 1! **

[sleek moat]

thanks for your help anyway

[bold saffron]

you can’t

moon is weird

they let you animate parts but can’t export

[sleek moat]

damnnnn fr

do you know how i could on something else?

[keen zephyr]

they let you animate parts because of cutscenes

like showcase cutscenes

if you could animate the vfx with moon it would be a blessing
