| Finished the first phase of this animation. Takes a while to get the timing right. I am going to have it roll toward the screen and transform.. Maybe next week. (URL) I dont have this set so I had to try to figure out how it worked from the (...) (21 years ago, 10-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.animation, lugnet.technic, FTX)

| Hi again Mike, Very nice animation - I love the op-art background 8?) You should consider downloading windows binaries of the open source (URL) Xvid Codec> (and maybe (URL)) and re-enconde your avis before you distribute them. Xvid can knock well (...)

| (...) Here we go. Very unlike the Superbowl version but it is a cool exercise in using PoV-Ray's animation features. Still a long cry from Steve's stuff. :) (URL) to maintain a fairly low bitrate (256KB) and high clarity I had to use the Indeo 5.1 (...) (21 years ago, 7-Feb-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, lugnet.animation)

We @ SCLTC have a FEW layout loop video's, including being a minifig as an 8wide train passes pulling 1/2 the layout's rolling stock, but I don't think they have been posted yet so I'll post to the group begging for them to be (...)

| | | | Re: TRAIN RIDE
|
| Thanks for all the suggestions. I am thinking about a tunnel also. The problem is the file size. The colors have to be reduced to keep the size down and the more detail I add the less reduction frame to frame I get. The file right now is 356kb. How (...)

Just make sure nobody gets hurt. :-) More seriously, trees do add a lot.(2) The MTW signature image (3) uses them to good effect. (for which a (...)

Here's hoping that you, Steve, decide to write up a tutorial on how you did (...) (21 years ago, 3-Feb-04, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.cad, lugnet.animation, FTX)

| Hey everyone, Its been a while since my last post, but I'm back with some pretty impressive teasers for chapter 4 'A Dark Ritual' I can't really say how close I am to finishing it, but It will be well worth the wait, unlike my first three chapters (...)

| | | | Re: F1 suspension animation
|
| (...) Thanks, I did. That's really cool! The only thing that springs (!) to mind is it might have been cooler if the suspension animation showed "two bumps" with a little delay. First the left wheel moves up fast and when it starts to go down (...) (21 years ago, 29-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.animation, lugnet.technic, FTX)

| Hi, I'm looking forward to this tutorial! I found the way a .pov file is generated by l3p highly counter-intuitive: matrices were used to combine translation and rotation in one step. I find it impressive how you managed to find the axis around (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jan-04, to lugnet.animation)

| --snip-- (...) Nope. =( It will render the animation in a movie file format (..mpg, .avi, etc..) when you are done. LD4DModler does not go the route of frame-by-frame animation as POV-Ray does, it uses 3D modeling. (The following text comes from a (...)
