Hi

I need to show how 3d animated people pass Pedestrian Crossing in my roundabout model. I need to set up 3d animated people walk or run close to Pedestrian Crossing, then stop & lift hand & turn head right or left for watching, then keep going to Splitter Island, then down hand, pass Splitter Island, then lift hand again and turn head right or left for watching and keep going for passing the Pedestrian Crossing, then down hand and keeping walking.

I loaded motion file, but the file can’t work well even though I created new motion file in Mixer Mode. I set up Footstep Mode. I have 23 animated people. If I stayed in Original layer, two many footsteps are shown in my view, so mess! how to freeze the footstep? or other good idea?

My project is with tight deadline, I don’t have enough time to test. Can anyone give me a hint how to make 3d animated people with footstep mode loop? What’s best way to make 3d animated people walk, then lift hand and turn head right or left etc.?

Could you please cc your idea to

Thanks

Hi,

I think you should have posted this in the animation section of the forum. The maxscript
section is for scripting related discussion.

Read the help files on how to animate using biped. That will give you a frame of reference
for the answers people give you in the animation section.

Doesn’t look like a scripting question to me either. Moved, therefore, to the animation forum.
