    Ay, I feel like this is a really rather straight forward tutorial. Props on the simplicity, though if you can you should do a casual workflow video. Seems everyone does things quite differently and it would be interesting to knoe why you do things in that way, eg. You used a cycle modifier for the curves instead of adding it to the action editor and using the NLA editor.
    Very cool regardless, I continued to watch even though I needed all of 30 seconds of info. New sub!

      Im starting to think that the people that upvoted this video either didnt tried to follow it actually working on a project, or their skill level was already above the tutorial making it not actually useful for them in the first place but chimed in only to give good vibes.

      for info u can touch a keyframe "I" and in the bones layers delete Location and Scale frames and leave only rotation keyframes only . I figured out it myself it took me a lot of time to get it....

    @mistube 2 роки тому +2

    Your tutorial seems good but ime facing a problem. If i change the path direction so its does not just go streigh but like swirl around like a spiral or go left then right, then the butterflyes does not follow the curve correct, or so to say, they follow but they dont turn in the direction of the curve, so if i first go left then right the butterflyes will be flying backwards on the way to the right. Do you know how i can fix this ? kinda urgent :) ime working on a project for saving money for kids and i would like to use butterflies

    • @HealthyGameDev121
      @HealthyGameDev121 3 роки тому

      hey i had the same thing. I assume that you already have the groups but it doesnt show in the menue.
      To show the vertex groups in the menue just search for your plane in the collection and right underneath your plane object
      you should find a green triangle symbol. click on it and the menue should show.

    • @teabags2day
      @teabags2day 3 роки тому

      Be sure to be in Edit mode when duplicating the bones. That will make it show 3 bone groups in your Vertex Groups.

  • @OnyxBlackDiamond

      @miinaa03 3 роки тому +3

      I figured my issue out. I wasn't in Pose Mode so the bones didnt move right in Object Mode. Maybe that goes for you too? Since the tutorial is rather quick and at times doesnt show the whole screen

    3:40 you assumed the viewer knew that in this moment you swaped to pose mode. I lost time thinking I made a mistake because I rotated the bones and the wings didnt move. I didnt know that mode existed.
