[Plugin] CameraKeyMaker 1.0 (Update 2011-04-09)
-
Great! Thank you!
-
nice animation. could you describe what makes your animation plugin different from others?
-
Wow! I'm stunned.
This is exactly what I always wanted for SU animation.
Thank you soooo much!Did I say Wow?
-
Just did a quick test and it's supersmooth.
Love it already. -
Yes, apparently very nice, smooth animations.
I wonder how they can be "translated" into 3rd party renderers' camera exporters (this is obviously not your task but of those who write them - hopefully it is feasible).

Excellent idea.
My only suggestion is that you put it in the 'Camera' menu rather than the 'Plugins' [I've already edited my version...] -

Yes it's possible.
I know that in LightWave the camera paths are stored in envelopes it's just a spline. -

nice and smooth .

It's a great plugin! I'm testing it right now but I'm trying to edit the path (in top or front view in parallel and perspective) and I can't select and move the points.. Does anyone else have this problem? I'm using sketchup 8 on windows 7

Thank's for your reply dbalex !
Strange thing!
Check your keyboard shortcuts if it already occupied by another tool (see above in the header of this post to shortcuts)
Check if you have groups or layers in your model.
sometimes when a key is published in conjunction with a group is selected that is problematic. -
Is there a shortcut key for editing the points? because I can update the keyframes by putting the camera in the right spot and update the keyframe, but I can't select them and move them in the orthographic views.. non of the shortcut your plugin uses is used in my shortcuts so I don't think that's the problem, anyway even like this it's a great tool! thanks for the fast reply
-
and I have no groups or layers in the scene, just a testscene with a simple cube.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
Check if you have the file bezier.rb
The plugin has been tested on Sketchup v.7 and v.8 (pro or not)best regard
-
yes I thought of that also so I installed bezier.rb again with no results.. will try it on my other computer when I have time and will let you know if it works on that one. Thanks!
-
Would some other Bezier plugin work with this tool? If not, could this be causing the difficulty?

thank's mitCorb for reply
In the next major update (1.2) the file "bezier.rb" will no be required.

....o-o-o-excellent!

Hi,
Thanks for the plugin, it's very useful but i work on Mac, the plugin runs but there are problems:- On Mac the keys combination (Alt+Q, ...) and the arrow keys don't works so you can't create the Camera Keys.
- The path to camera_path.html file is invalid and the file don't open when you push Enter key.
Only the first time that i ran the plugin i could create the camera keys (Ctrl+Q on Mac) but the next times no and when i pushed the Enter key this were the Console message:
I have translating the plugin to spanish language, when i finished it i'll upload it here.
Bye and i hope your help for fix these problems.
