Hi all,

So, this is something that’s been a nuisance for a while now, and I think it’s time for me to inquire seriously about a fix for it. I’m working with some ani’s in max’s timeline, and everyso often I find it starts to make use (or I start to make use...?) of “ticks”...I really dont wnat them, and in fact they cause a whole bunch of issues when adjusting keyframes as Im sure some of you can imagine.

Im not sure if it does this because of a setting I choose ( I always start animating in frames mode), or because I often will work in Key mode when Im swapping in a certain pose often...since all my character’s animations are in one timeline.

The big question is...is there a way to FORCE these “ticked” keys onto full frames somehow? I’ve looked through all the timewarps I can find, and adjust their keys to full frames, but eventually it still goes back to ticks....WHAT MUST I DO!!!!! maybe there’s a script, or Im missing something obvious?

I keep resetting to frames mode, and rechecking timewarps...to no longterm avail.

PLEASE, you folk are my only hope!

right next to the pause and play buttons thats the animation settings button click on it and put it back on frames. another problem you may run into is that. after frame 300 the keys become so small you can barely see them. I start a new scene after frame 300 to avoid this problem
