No idea for this animation (Mini challenge) ? :)

Hum hum

If you had placed the various versions of the board exactly one on top of the other

That is not the case
I though at something like a "move camera" as a traveling as boards are "side by side"
and wanted used that yet existing (if possible)

(copy the "position camera" of the scene 48 with changing Start End/ Position target to each scene but don't know if it's possible)

andybot

could you place all the boards in the same location and then put them on different layers to turn them on and off per layer?

andybot

ah, I see, you'd like a shortcut, wouldn't we all
I do wish SU had better camera tools, but then I wouldn't have any reason to learn Blender.

@ Andy
I want with the file positions given make the less actions possible

Use layers is a little nightmare (visibility) for one (unvisibilty for other ) etc...

For the moment my method of camera seems the more easy against the layers method
need only one line copy move *55, 55 cameras built

If i could "Copy Move" a camera * 55 by scene that will be the ultima trick!

pilou

Seems each scene has this case yet enable or must I all disable

pilou

I have find something
I draw a line who is the Start / End of the camera
Copy past this line to each board
and make for all scene a new camera Start / Target / Up Date Scene
At the end kill all lines

Easy & works fine
but 55 new cameras drawings!
Height of the line = zoom
If line is centered = View top

Have you better with the file linked ?

Pilou,
Well you can copy a "camera" multiple times (advanced camera tools)but it will still leave a bit of work to do.
EDIT: You will need to set the first camera.....make cameras visible...then copy 54x.(oc/oc)

Rt click on camera....look thru camera.......Rt. click done......name & update scene....navigate to next camera...repeat.

FYI: I scaled the camera up 10x.

Copy camera

TIG

RickW has a free tool to add scenes/view orthogonally offset in specified x/y/z directions - which would work if the boards are equally spaced ???
See http://www.smustard.com/script/AddPages

Works fine but only with Inch !

So Unity Inch Menu animations / Settings
Disable Transition and Delay Menu Animation / Settings
Kill all scenes
View top on first Goban
Create Scene (no need Update)
Call the Plug Menu View / Add Page Orthographically
Thx Rick WIlson!
54 pages asked
X = length in Inch between middle's side of 2 gobans edges
y =0, Z = 0
When that is made : regulate delay and transition

Works like a charm and it's very easy and very speedy!
Many thanks TIG for the trick! And bravo Rick WIlson!

@Charly
These advanced camera tools are not just inside the V8 ?

@ Tig Just read your post !

I will see that!

Here the result
A little Offset image 24 (test file)
Perfection is not existing in this word

Ps For the theorie of the Go Game
I you look the Scene 55 : Black seems to win : 17 to 13 so 4 points
But no possibility to make equality at this diabolic game!
Fact to play first (Black)gives you 4.5 points' advantage!
So Black is losting by 0.5 point!
