      Animatex v1.0.2 Released!

      Now with v1.0.2 you can animate multiple faces on each of the three separate layers that can control different x,y,z speeds.

      Will make quick video soon explaining the new features so expect that soon.

        Animatex v1.0.3 Released!

        Now with v1.0.3 you can animate multiple faces on each of the three separate layers that can control different x,y,z speeds. Animatex now works while transitioning between scene camera animation without lag. Will make quick video soon explaining the new features so expect that soon.

              Renderiza,

              First off this is a very nice plugin. Question: Will it work with round objects like pipes? I would like to simulate water flowing through a pipe. Also, can I make the water flow to the left instead of the right? Probably a dumb question but I can't change the direction.

              Thank You,

              Paul

              Edit: Figured out the second question. Make it a negative number ๐Ÿ˜„

                  raineysky :: Will it work with round objects like pipes?

                  Hi,

                  The plugin will animate any face with a texture that is inside or outside of a group but it can't be nested in a group withing another group and also it is not working with face inside Component Instances at the moment. ๐Ÿ˜•

                  With this in mind you can have animated textures on round objects but since the texture x,y,z coordinate are set by face and not globally like for example projected faces, it will mess the uvs coordinates if you used projected texture if that make any sense.

                  Now you pointed out that you are using water so it may still look decent...I might include an example of this on my upcoming video. ๐Ÿ‘

                  raineysky :: Also, can I make the water flow to the left instead of the right?

                  You can use negative sign to specify x,y,z to move in opposite direction. For example;

                  x= -1 , y= -6 , z= -10

                  Hope this helped...Cheers!

                    I corrected the message since 2nd time I read it wasn't what I wanted to mean so here is another try on that sentence...

                          Animatex v1.0.5 Released!

                          Hi, this is a small update for Animatex.

                          Now Animatex is an extension that you can see under Window > Preferences > Extensions. With a quick click, you can learn some info about plugin and can even turn it on and off.

                          Also this update attempts to fix some buttons that were not showing on some web-dialogs and also removed some that were not needed.

                                Hi,

                                I used Active Presenter which is free.

                                404 Not Found

                                favicon

                                (atomisystems.com)

                                I also use Frapswhich only captures viewport and ignores things like cursor, toolbars and so on. This screen capturing software reduce lag and preserve frame rate really well but its not free.

                                http://www.fraps.com/

                                Cheers!

                                        When I was using Animatex inside SketchUp there was no lag but I guess 'ActivePresenter' screen capturing software produced some lag in the video output. If you want to screen capture without lag output then I recommend using 'Fraps'.

                                            I installed the plugin but it is not animating... I followed all the instructions... also tried different values, components/groups/ just planes... still it is not animating.. does this require any other supporting plugin to work.?
