How about animating your characters.
One thing I’ve found odd about LW is the TCB splines.
How many people use TCB splines vs. Beziers?
I’m partial to beziers myself, just because that’s what I’ve come up using in other apps.
The beziers in LW are a bit weird at times though. Seems like they default to broken tangents.
Advantages/Disadvantages?
I like the precise in/out velocity control that beziers offer on a per keyframe basis.
I only use TCB splines.
The others splines are no good, try setting up something complex with non TCBs and zoom in on the spline. You see these odd tiny alternations … I bet that will give you some problems, quircky movements, or motion-blurr errors.
Btw, you can get the exact same result using TCBs that what you do with beziers, ect.
I don’t know if this has come up already, haven’t plowed through this entire thread.
