Thanks realsnake. I am glad you like it!

Can somebody reupload the sample file please?

Thanks Dale
but it's missing the image files. You should probably put it in one zip archive and reupload

Sure, got 15 minutes then I'm off to the bar. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBJQJbujxCM Dale Can you please post the anime file for the first animation you did with the banana? I'v never done image rigging, was trying to accomplish similar animation to what you did with that banana, but failed. pe...

Haha nice one.

did you have to open the file with image editing software to change the black background to white?

any solution for the grass? Try using two duplicates of that grass particle, one in front of and one behind the character. Wow I think I am a psychic.. just before I refreshed the post I knew you were gonna suggest to put one particle in front and one at the back. :o Thanks! I think that's what I s...

I can't just take the arm out in the middle of animation out of its bone layer...

Think in layers. To get the hand in front of the flower it has to be on a higher layer. Another way is change the sorting distance in the Project settings. Then change the z position to be nearer than the flower layer. Dale but that means I have to put the flower layer inside the character's bone l...

I'v been studying Anime studio for almost a month now, and based on this video you'll be able to tell that I am not an expert but I am learning. Actually I made this one for my mom on mother's day. I ran into couple of issues making this animation, for example the grass, I used particles to make the...

This is abit confusing but thanks I'll see if I can make it work.

I created a sun

Now I need an option similar to "immune to camera movement", except that i need "Immune to Camera zoom"


I want the sun to stay where it is, except that I don't want it to get smaller or bigger when I use camera Zoom.


any suggestions how to make it work?
