Hi all, Im an ULTRA N00b when animating, so this is really simple for most of u guyz. It's my first attemp to animate something so here we go, C&C will do me a lot of good :D.
This needs DivX codec and it only lasts 10 secs hehe.

Oh btw: I forgot to ask if anybody knows some good tutorials on animating this kind of things, and f/x in max6, i want to make one of those rockets to hit something but dunno nothing about f/x explosions etc. Tnx!

Suppose the best way to animate stuff like planes is through fitting the planes motion to a spline (adding a path constraint controller and then keying in the speed allong the path. The rocket would have to have a link constraint so it can unlink from the plane and fly solo at a given frame (or you could make a copy of it and switch it with an unlinked missle at a certain frame).

Explosions are done best with particle flow but that's a pandora's box in itself :D

the speed is not consitant an the roll is to perfect when planes roll they change height theyll move up or down like a dip, depending on the roll , judging on your roll he should be a little lower than before. hope that helps

Cheers
