    You should move to Tahoma. It's an OpenToonz fork that contains a ton of bug fixes and some new features you may find useful. Most of your OT skills will transfer directly to Tahoma too, which is a nice bonus.

    @cjgilbert5197 3 роки тому +7

    Just curious, what software do you use to create the drawings that you imported to animate. Is there a way to create a drawing in opentoonz that you can then just animate from there? I've been trying to find ways to do that but I keep getting error messages saying that the plastic tool can not be applied to a column. Any thoughts and help would be great!

    • @SwerveAlec
      @SwerveAlec  3 роки тому +10

      I drew the pieces in Sai. If you're looking for something free, Krita is good, but there are a lot of other good free art programs.
      Did you press "Create Mesh" before trying to animate with the Plastic Tool?

    • @UltimatePerfection
      @UltimatePerfection 3 роки тому +1

      You can draw directly in OT, though I use Krita for stuff like concept art or character reference sheets.

    I tried this and can't seem to get keyframes to work. Frequently if I change the skeleton in frame 9 e.g. it changes for all frames, even If I set a keyframe on frame one. But then sometimes it works. I can't figure out any rhyme or reason. Anyone seen that?

      @@bayanihannetwork9312 Actually I eventually figured it out. I was setting keyframes in the table. However it didn't work until I went into the plastic tool (X), then chose animate, then right click on the skeleton and set a global key frame / global resting key frame to start with. After that I was able to animate the skeleton. The keyframes should be visible on the table column for the mesh layer.

      Krita doesn't support tweening as of right now. You can deform images with points, but then you'd have to manually deform every single frame which would take way too long and probably wouldn't look that good.

      you need to manually add ffmpeg (there's tutorial how to do this in the docs for ot) or just use fork of OT called Tahoma (yes, like the font and no, I don't know what the developer of Tahoma was thinking either).
      Actually, you should use Tahoma as all OpenToonz tutorials still apply (though the certain options may be somewhere else or be named differently) and Tahoma comes with a ton of bugfixes over OpenToonz and several nifty tools such as the perspective guides that make drawing easier.

      What tools exactly? Some tools can only be used on a vector layer. You may have made a raster layer and tried to use those tools on the raster layer, so you'd have to make a vector layer to use those certain tools.
