- Blender 2.8 how to constantly spin object or rotate object in animation. This Blender tutorial will show how to spin a wheel or object forever using keyframes and the graph editor with cycle modifier. Nice introduction to the graph editor and its modifiers.
This is one of the most direct and understandable tutorials I have ever seen. Thank you!
Thank you so much, saved me a lot of time. Had cars animated already for a race, so instead of having to go all the way through and re-animate the wheels using the rig, I just used this trick. Appreciate it!
Excellent tutorial. Thanks for explaining clearly and not leaving out the little details which seem obvious to experts but get the rest of us bamboozled. Great stuff.
I was tired of searching how to do the planet rotation effect and I found u. Thanks a lot for this tutorial. Really helped me.
The EMpty Sphere Idea was Awesome to rotate an Object.
I've been rotating object but it goes up and down a little then complete rotation.
You save my Life Bro.
love you bro sooo much thank you.
i want to like your video thousand times but i cant.
thank you so much.😍😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😚.
Thank you for the video. learnt a lot in a short time, and very easy way. One of the best videos for animation and properties.
Thank you omg! I been have the issue all day and every UA-cam video I came across they don’t explain everything well or too fast. Thanks
Heck yeah!! I was achieving alright solutions to a similar problem and you just managed to help me out a ton.
Thanks a bunch, ma man. Make sure to have a good day! ✌🏼
That's exactly what I was looking for. Thank you very very much!
Just started learning blender and I thank you so much for this tutorial.
This video helped me BIG TIME! I could not figure out while my cycles where slowing down & then speeding up at the end. THANK YOU! Much love!
Brilliantly done, thanks for uploading.
Awesome simplicity thank you so much
Amazing tutorial! Thanks a lot!
Thanks! Just what I needed.
Fantastic ..! you explained it very well...vey helpful..
that extra knowledge inspirer me a lot
Good tut/demo. Thanks.
Thank you! I wish this video showed up sooner!
very nice, thank you.
That was brilliant. thank you.
Ahh this is awesome, thank you so much!
Thank you. Awsome solution
Sweet, thanks for the video! Solar system here we come.
So simple, so easy to follow. Great video for a noob like myself
THANK YOU SO MUCH!! this really helped me, now in know how to animate!!
Awesome! I can use this to rotate a planet now
thank you! very helpful
This really helped thank you
excellent video mate!
Additional tip: If you want to angle the "planet" a few degrees like how Earth rotates, you can place an empty in the same spot as the Earth and rotate the empty on it's axis. then create a second empty and parent the other empty to that (but keep it's transforms untouched). Then create a third empty (like in the video) in the world origin and parent the 2nd empty to that empty.
This way the planet can rotate around a sun (which can have the same cycles setup. This can be repeated for all the planets :)
thanks my man all the other guys wanted me to actually learn bones armatures and drivers, your's is way easier !!!
Very helpful! Thank you :)
Good stuff. Thanks.
that's exactly what i want thank so much!
Thank You Its a good tutorial :)
thanks! this is gonna help me on making water simulations
This was great, thx
thanks so much for this
Thank you!
Thank you so much!
Thank you. That put the worms back in the can!
Thank you friend! Works in 2021 on Blender 3.0 !
nice thats what i searched thx
you rock. thx.
Thanks man
Thanks
Life Saver!
You can also just set up a simple driver. In the transform>rotation field you want it to rotate, type "#frame". If you want it faster or slower, you can use math such as "#frame*5", or "#frame*-5" to go in the opposite direction. This method requires no key frames of modifiers. I'm just not sure if you can define when it starts or stops the action since it doesn't use keyframes (probably some way to do it). But it is useful for something that has to keep moving, like an analog clock or something.
Nice alternative method
You could also just put #frame in one(or more) of the rotation values. If that's too fast for you you can divide it like by any number like for example #frame/420
How can I use a custom data to perform a rotation or moviment? I have a time series of a simulation and would like to use it to illustrate through an animation
k one thing when it comes to last frame and starts back again its skips animation i need to transition smooth no skipping if the animation repeats pls help need real looping not skipping ty
Nice video. I would have done that with drivers but I didn't know about animation modifiers until quite recently. This way is easier, I suppose. With drivers you have a bit of maths to remember.
Yes, always a few different ways to accomplish things. The cyclic modifier is great for repeating motion.
Nice video thank you ...But what if you wanted to make a something spin at great speed e.g like a wheel burn out/ wheel spin. I am trying to do this but the wheel spin looks to slow no matter how fast or high i put the rotation at.
Another way to do this, which will handle great rotation speed, is to:
*keyframe two adjacent frames with a rotation of whatever (45 degrees).
*go to the graph editor and set the keys->INTERPOLATION to 'linear', and the channel->EXTRAPOLATION to 'linear' too. The Interpolation linear makes it so that there is no easing (just constant change of angle). The channel Extrapolation linear will make it so that the graph just extends past the last keyframe in the direction it is currently going.
*select that one keyframe point on the graph and Grab it and move it up higher to increase the slope of the graph for fast speeds.
This works for the method I show in this video too, just move the keyframe point to higher value.
I have Blender 2.93.4. Modifier Tab wouldn't appear. Had to open the channel Object Transform and select the Z rotation to get the modifier tab to appear.
Does this go for multiple objects at the same time? If my model has 20 different objects, will it rotate all of them in accordance to each other if I click every object? I've done this before and it's given me a hard time.
Can the modifiers be applied to specific key frames in the timeline instead of the whole set?
For example, a aircraft propeller starting up before entering its running cycle.
4:57
thnku
great video! but how do i group multiple objects to move at the same time?
In this video we patented. Just key frame parent and children move along with parent.
pressing n while in the tab makes the show cursor menu appear. How do I do I right pls ?
nice! I have a question. How do you do a slow start on the rotation and then only cycle once the rotation is spinning faster?
I think you can select the first keyframe (maybe two) and see the Interpolation mode to Bezier (just not linear). Then select the other keyframes (the last one/s) and set their Interpolation to linear(co stant). That way you have easing at the beginning and then constant speed later.
@@gamemakergameprogrammingco4786 if i want to cycle it with a modifier, it repeats the slowing start. I tried using range on the modifier, it didn't work as well.
I followed your tutorial but noticed that at the final frame there is still a slight glitch before it loops. I want to render out the animation, but when it rotates a full 360, it still glitches. Anyone know how I can achieve it?
Normal, that is NOT a right way to animate a rotation!!! I can't do it... It destroyed my project because we can't even do SOMETHING AS BASIC AND SIMPLE???!
Fuck that! It's actually crazy that we can't do it properly, like the motor in C4D which let's you assign a rotation speed, but ONLY TO A fucking rigid body?! These people are all crazy.
If I try the keyframe "method" it randomly changes rotation direction or stops at the middle! It's just totally crazy that this is like that. I can't even fathom how and why things are this way.
When i press N on the graph editor, i dont see any tabs. Just 'View Properties'.
Same here.
I had the same problem. I found that if I expanded the Object Transform in the Graphics Editor Outliner on the left side, I had to click on every line or curve I wanted to modify and then the menu and tabs appeared. when I pressed N. Hope that makes sense. 8^]
@@ic3d-structuraldetailing695 Wow man thank you for that awnser! Your comment save me a lot of time troubleshooting this problem, awesome !
This worked for me as well! Thank you!
Not sure if this will help but I had each channel selected (x,y,z) - After only selecting the Z axis I was able to make it repeat like in the video! Hopefully this helps someone.. thanks again!
This may be a dumb question, but how do I save the object so it stays animated once imported as a 3d object?
I'm trying to animate a part of a model but at the keyframes there's a line between the 2 diamonds and I can't make them independent, so they are not animated.. So frustrating you did it so simply. Can anyone help?
good video. I was wondering if you could do something similar with a picture?
If the picture is placed as a texture onto an object then yes.
This is a very cool tip, but is there any way to ease in to the animation ? When I try, it cycles all the keyframes.
I think you can select the first pair of key frames and then look for interpolation mode and change it off of Linear to one of the others. Then you can adjust to ease in.
The Cycle Modifier is great for repeating complex motion, but for this instance of extending constant motion it is unnecessary. Blender continues motion beyond the last keyframe based on its interpolation or the direction of its outgoing curve handle.
Agree. Set the interpolation mode of the key frames to linear AND also set the Channel Extrapolation mode to linear as well (this makes the slope of the lines in graph editor continue forever past the last key frame at same slope)
Works great! (couldn't get the method in the video to work, BTW)
how to make the object slowly stop the rotation from very fast rotation .. so the speed of rotation is decrease
Go into the graph editor window and you can edit adjust the curve/line that controls the rotation values.
It doesn't seem to work the same way for bones, I'm trying to just make something spin in place, but my rotation along the Y axis slows down, despite being linear. Rotating along any axis also rotates the W axis, which seems to be causing the problem. If anyone knows of any work arounds, it'd be much appreciated
I know you asked this a year ago but I just struggled finding a solution so: under the Item tab (top right) with your bone selected, change the transform type from "Quaternion" to "xyz Euler". This allowed me to then proceed as normal with a linear curve and offset cycle mod.
@@Eric-zf3dv no worries, I did eventually find the xyz euler setting as well :)
@@Eric-zf3dv I know you answered this a year ago but thank you :)
I know you thanked me 7 months ago, but you’re welcome!
How can we accelerate that animation in graph editor?
You can select key frames and move them (G) or select all the key frames and scale them (S) to change timing.
When i press N i dont have modifiers options there, only "show cursor" :(
Select the 2 key frames first so they are yellow, then press N and modifier options should be there.
when I press N in the graph editor I can only see "view properties" anyone knows why and how to fix this?
You need select at least one of two keyframes created when you pressed I => Rotation. After that, the side panel will show the "Modifiers" tab :)
mine slows down after the initial keyframe can anyone help me?
Not sure why but... mine didn't cycle.
My modifier wont cycle the graph.
this is now under channel > extrapolation mode > linear
When I hit N, I only see "Show Curser" in the menu
i get that too. probrably a config issue
You sound like coop from interstellar xd
Coop, set humor level to 40%.
"Initiating destruct sequence"
Maybe 20%.
i dont want this i want to have an object held up by another object and spun with rigid body physics
Then lookup blender physics tutorials
i'm gonna start making fake accounts to like this video and sub to your channel
That is shitty, disgusting. I want to actually assign a rotation speed, not just keyframing degrees in the item tab... So fucking frustrating. WHY ISN'T there something like the motor for rigid bodies for normal objects!!!
PLEASE, FIX THAT, people at Blender!!! It's not normal!
