Sorry for bumping this old topic but, honestly I feel like this could be a great idea and could have some funny moments. I started animating this a while back when this topic was relavant but then forgot about it. Its a pretty basic animation but I felt maybe I would start and then various members could contribute and then we combine all the segments. http://youtu.be/pG_egAvyG_M Also I can render this better this is just a quick prerender because Its such a short scene.

Embarrassingly, I'm not quite sure what you mean. Care to elaborate? This is a keychart. It's a technique created by Disney animations, and it used by almost all professional animation studios (including Pixar/Dreamworks, those people who make short animations on YouTube, anime studios etc etc). A really good overview is here: http://www.brianlemay.com/Pages/animationschool/animation/lipsyncbook/timingcharts.html Basically, they're guide to help you know exactly how many frames you need to draw for a smooth animation. There are three types of animation (the pipes represent frames): 1) Linear |-------------|-------------| 2) Ease In/Accelerating |---|---|-----|-------------| 3) Ease Out/Decelerating |-------------|------|---|--| Linear means that a motion remains constant. Ease In/Out is the start or end of a motion. Basically what you do is you draw a chart on top of each frame you draw. You draw the start and end of a motion (the key frames), and you add these keys as big lines to your chart (name them A and B). You then add an in-between (the middle frame), and you put a smaller line in the center of your chart (name this one C). Then, in order to help the audience see the direction of your work and add flow, you add keys that either ease-in or ease-out. You add small lines for each one, and continue to name them in alphabetical order. If you like, I can show you an example I made.

I really haven't used the computer for the past three weeks and have been away some, and I'm going to be gone for the next three weeks too, so, yeah, sorry. Excuses aside, I still managed to finish another mask between periods of not using my computer, and I present to all of you the Pakari Nuva Adaptive mask; one of my personal favorites. And some other stuff: This mask was made by a friend And he said the PNA was perfect except it should be pink

I might have mentioned this before, and it's under my interests section of my profile page, but I like to make animations in my free time. In the last year, however, I slipped away from that as I got distracted by less productive things. (Team Fortress 2) This year, however, I made a resolution to put out at least one video a month. So yeah, I guess I'll keep posting. January - Still Alive Animation February - "Shovel the Walk" March - "Don't Drink and Drive" April/May - "Sharkbait" June - "Febreze Commercial Parody"

Only part I'd change (aside from rendering stuff) is getting rid of the ... at the end. Just leave it hanging the whole time.

Another video. I like the concept, but I should have been more careful with the actual animations. Oh well, it's still pretty good.

Count me in. I just read the first 12 pages.

'' target='_blank'>> sizes/o/'> Mmmmm, yes.

SPACEMECH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!oneoneoneone I think that the set release looks a whole lot better than the original prototype. And I can't find anything else to say about it other than EVERYTHING IS AWESSSSSSUUUUUMMMM EVERYTHING IS COOL WHEN YOU HAVE A FREAKING MECH EVERYTHING IS AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS-*gets shoved off because SOMEONE knows what happens when you put a long line of unbroken text anywhere on RRU *

You mean like this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXxpXzEEJ9o

I start out with podium, houses start at 0:25ish.

So I found an old video I recorded in 2009. Enjoy.

That video is trying to make me sick. Or high. I'm not sure which.

You bet! Also, I didn't really show off high gravity well, so here is another video: http://youtu.be/gvl1Xtc1nEg

The only next logical steps are these: * Remove all powerups * Set all car health to 1 * Set vehicle starting positions high in the air so the cars break when they land * Set minifig on-foot speed to GO FAST * SONIC BOOM SONIC BOOM SONIC BOOOOOOOOM

Waht. Why am I in this car. I just came for teh cookeez. Arggh this island is so BOOTIFUL

What have I done?

And you, all ye members of RRU who look in on this topic but don't get involved... Join in, or I'll drop a landslide at your doorstep.

You seem to have your head stuck in the dock. O.T. But on a side note, I figured out mini-figure positions.

Just got around to watching this, it's hilarious, thank you for sharing All the good quotes have already been commented on, so I can't say much more. Although it did remind me how I've always found it stupid that the NPCs say 'I might catch you by the pommy... I like the way you yodel though.' Apparently 'Pommy' is derogatory for British person, so thanks for that LEGO, and also I have never tried to yodel.

"I love how fast the game loads. Way faster than Lego Island 2." Yes, I love how the game loads like it is not being run on a Commodore 64 from a tape deck. That was one of the selling points of Lego Racers 2, don't you know.

Changing the graphics to low settings will make fewer opponents appear in races. I'm not sure if it affects adventure mode, but it affects single races. It's a good way to cheat if you can't stand driving with seven opponents.
