max's character studio in cinema

[LucentDreams]

yeah much easier also much less convincing, no character, and all round boring to watch. No thanks.

I believe the only way to do that in Cinema is by the way of Expresso.

good luck.

not really what you want but might help you get your head around the flow part on animating footsteps...plus speed your workflow.

what would be so bad about the ability to
generate basic generic walk cycles
that you then go into your dope sheet and graph editor
and add head bobbing, offset the arm swing
hip swing and conversational hand,arm gestures etc.

Life forms 3.9 has a "walk generator"
that lets you define stride, step length
and distance in feet/meters for your imported rigs
if you are bidding on some architechtural walkthroughs
or forensic re- creations involving mutiple humanoids
easliy generated walks are a $$valuable$$ asset trust me.

I see them as "primatives"

why should i spline model a shere???
if my app will load a basic one for me and leave to me to
make it look like a space station or whatever:shrug:
