Moho Forum

Hi all...

New here, trying out the demo.

I have Illustrator artwork I've imported, and when animated - including some of the 3d layer rotate and camera controls - I get massive flickering in the Flash file:

(about 3 megs, sorry)

Any help appreciated!

thx

Without seeing the Moho file, here's my guess: it looks like that big grey shape is one big, single, complex fill. The way it overlaps itself is what causes the holes inside it and complex sub-shapes.

Moho understands 3D, but Flash does not. When you move shapes around in 3D, Moho has to convert them to 2D for Flash. Unfortunately, transforming and clipping a weird complex shape like this is not as straight-forward as regular 3D polygons. As parts of the shape get cut off in the Flash conversion, the shape itself changes and Flash interprets it differently - the flickering is the result of the object drastically changing shape at certain frames.

Thanks -

Should I simply try creating the same shape made up of more pieces?

BTW Moho handles it quite well...

thx
