    Great video, great job, love it.

    The only thing I *don't* like about it is that I have all the items you used to make the video and I haven't done anything remotely like it... but I guess that's on me. wink

    Thanks for sharing, looking forward to more. 

  • Thanks. I can't take credit for the music, I found it on Pixabay. It sounded cool and pretty much fit the video without editing the shot lengths. This is my first project since my surgery earlier this year, rumors of my demise being slightly exaggerated. This is the most interesting character bundle so far. Most of the choices for free character bundles at the premier membership level so far have been pretty disappointing.

  • Thanks. I've gotten a lot of use out of the After the War set, but I've had the Martian War Machine for 11 years and this is the first time I've ever used it. Another one of those things you don't need until you do. :)

    Wonderful Techniques:

    In this episode, we're kit bashing a Spider Bot Mech (The AntFarm) suit for Arachnoid (Elele) so that we can use its very well-made aniBlocks

    There is a little utility that's on its way that may be of use to some animators and scene builders alike.

    Check ot the Reverse playback tool. It allows you to playback sections of an animation in reverse mode and more.

    Tugpsx! Dude!!! This is Awesome!!! :)

    I really Love that interface!!! So Cool!!!

    Also, I really like how we can change around the playback time range all we want, and them click "Snap to Timeline" to put our actual "Timeline" range values into the playback tool's values... right? That is So Handy!!!

    Ping Pong?!!! 

    This is so wonderful, my friend! I want one for Daz Studio 4.2!!!

    (kidding - I'm sure just making the one tool was an Awful Lot of Work!)

    You Rock Man!!!

    Does this utility also affect playback speed when using Puppeteer record function? I am hoping it can go hand in hand. Thanks!

    There is a recorder version in Beta, but since it is a script there is no direct access to Puppeteers interface during playback/recording.

    If you record your Puppeteer animation to the timeline it will playback in reverse or looped. The new version has a loop/ping-pong count for those wanting to record the animation only once.

    A good example is the crab animation shown above, the reverse animation would be recorded to the timeline.
