View Full Version : Animating with texture controls?

Hi there again

I'm curious how risky it is to start animating your stuff with texture controls still available. I rigged my objects and didn't freeze the texturing in case of need to adjust later on.

Even though i put the texture controls hidden and they're in the model root I'm slightly concerned they might move out of place and mess up my textures during the animation.

Am I too concerned about this? Or do you recommend to freeze objects (and thus get rid of texture controls) before animating?

Thanks

Do some tests to see first hand if it's an issue or not. Otherwise, why do you need them? You can still edit your UV's and whatnot without these, I usually freeze them immediately after I initialize them and control the result by hand after-wards.
