      Hi guys, just wondering what your preferred plugin / process for animating SU models? I'm keen to start producing some flyovers / walkthroughs for an upcoming job.

      The standard export out of SU is not bad but wanted to consider a more accurate way to do it. Just did a search and found Whaat's 'Smoothstep Animation'plugin and i notice its quite old. Anyone still using it?

      Thanks in advance. πŸ‘

            Thanks fellas,

            @Rich - Don't really need to animate things in the building at all... still the best solution?

            Will have a look at MSPhysics too, cheers @faust07

              You can put a placeholder into the scene that would be the camera movement. Then 'attach the camera to that object to create your walkthrough...
