Yep. My very first attempt at 3D ani'mation (well, without using the walk designer) in Poser. It's a wolf running. It's a bit choppy but who cares, I like it. There are no fancy bits added, it's just the 3D model- hope you like...

Edit: Bother, it looks a lot LESS choppy on my computer when I run the file... it looks slow as a download.  :dontgetit:

Not my model... Poser 5's model.  ^_^

I'm not good enough to make models yet!

Just say it has a li'mp and it's perfect. :D

Good job. Does Poser set up the paths for you or do you have to do them yourself? I'm a 3DMax guy myself but I haven't gotten into ani'mations yet. ;)

Actually... I think it does touch the ground... if you kinda squint and look closely. ^_^

I don't know if Poser can set up paths for you... he's kinda just running on the spot and I just moved each li'mb piece by piece for each frame (I.e. moved the left thigh, move the left leg, move the left shin, move the left foot... repeat with all other body parts then move to the next frame) until it worked. I've never read an ani'mation tutorial for Poser before...  :blink:

Ok, so you manually did it. I think you can creat a path and assign the object to the path over several frames. That would be doing the same thing you are doing by moving the foot. (for example)

(I must not be squinting enough. ^_^ )

Hmm... I looked again, and I can't really tell(kinda hard to) ;) It's still great, nonetheless.

Uh-huh, I'm normally a background fiend but I just couldn't be bothered this ti'me. It would mean I'd have to make the background move as well. I just wanted to get the thing moving as soon as possible so I didn't do too many frames- I might double the amount of frames today or something if I get the ti'me.

Ok, so you manually did it. I think you can creat a path and assign the object to the path over several frames. That would be doing the same thing you are doing by moving the foot. (for example)


Woah. That sounds easier... if you know how. ;) I'll look into that.

you shoulda made it a silver wolf with a couple of tails ( 8 ) 


I know, I was going to make it all fancy and nice but I decided to just stick with an ani'mation- it's not exactly my best presented graphic!

Thanks for all the compli'ments, it's made me feel all happy.  :p

I assure you, it's definitely supposed to be a wolf texture. Poser's lion texture is even worse, have you seen it? It's horrible!

And yes, he does seem to be bucking about quite a lot...
