How to animate a sliding door

Gaieus

Section cuts cannot be exported into Kerky with the current version of SU2KT though it's on the wish list.

You could use layers and copy/move the bike little by little putting the current instance on different layers then create scenes by hiding the rest.

Long and tedious work and the result is very likely a jaggy animation not worth rendering and wasting time in Kerky.

Sure and if you have not a render farm

Gaieus

I mean long and tedious in SU. Once you set up the scenes Kerky will handle it just as well as any other animation. True if you have a slow machine, it will be longer.

Here the bike animation, but alas the cool script "Transformer" by Didier Bur can't run in the same time that the classic animation of the sliding door by Martin

unzip and open the file Bike.htm in you favorite navigator
(firefox is best)

Ps In this case of this bike animation by the script how can I render this animation in Kerkythea?

Ok that work!
problem was the unities 50 and 20
I have the french version it's write by default Step = 10 and Duration (second) = 5
I input 2 seconds because I was speedy
With that I just 2 draws Start / End

With your numbers I have an animation (Miraculous) but not during 20 seconds but seems 2 seconds

And it's an animation at the "screen" not in 50 pages !
Have you some light about that?

Gaieus

Well, if it went by the "classical" page (scene) transition, you could for sure.
I don't know (but doubt) if/that you can render this in Kerky though.

So wait someone transpose Script "Transformer" animation to page

Dear Fletch,

I am curious, and would like to know which bit of the message tickled you the most? Was it that 'an-already-overloaded-Didier' might have time to revise one of his old scripts? The last time I suggested a revision Didier did a superb job revising his Projections scripts. I have found the Transformer script useful from time to time, and simple to use, although I suppose I should try running SketchyPhysics with its many features.

Kind regards,
Bob

Hi Pilou,
you can´t push or move this bike using the section cut method.
But you can beam it up.
