Not bad. I really like the facial movement. Most people skip that in testing.
All I would suggest is maybe adding some ease in and out transitions on the arms, body, and head. It looks smoother, though honestly you could easily turn this into a really interesting style, using only linear transitions. MC:SM did it, and it looks pretty nice.

I'm back with some more stuff everyone..
This is the first animation I made in the new 1.0.0 so it's just a test but I've been trying make my walk/run cycles better and this was the outcome. I hope you like it and tell me what you think.

It's finally here!
It took quite a bit of time, but it has finally arrived!
I have to say, this looks pretty cool. .
 
The Ideas for the rig were not taken from the others.
Fingers will soon be added. They are quite glitchy at the moment, but I will find a way to fix them.
Without further ado, Here's the rig!

G'day/night/morning folks. This topic will explain some of the plans I have for Mine-imator this summer (and beyond). I thought I'd clear things up since a lot has happened since the last topic in late March, and I have been thinking about what I should be doing with this program and the community.
I am currently working the final features of 1.0.0 (the GM version), which will be published some time in the near future. You can expect exciting things such as:
Fully working undo/redo Improved interface (friendlier and more modern) Alpha glitch fixed, kind of (you can control the rendering order of objects) 1.8 mobs & blocks support Some more neat stuff ... (see the dev blog) I am also planning on completely redesigning my website (including the download page). I have learnt a lot of new tricks in web development during the 4 years since Stuff By David was founded and most of the content on there is pretty outdated and needs a cleanup.
To go along with the new design, I was thinking about somehow fetching the data from the forums and displaying it on the download page. This could be a list of active members or recent/hot content posted in the Narrative/Random/Music videos or Wallpapers subforums, to give you guys additional spotlight and a chance to demonstrate what Mine-imator is capable of when people are downloading it. What do ya think?
 
But... but... what happens to C++ Mine-imator?
Rewriting the entire program will require tremendous effort and time, so I have decided that if I will ever recreate this program, I will create a more generic environment to allow for any kind of animations, not just Minecraft. I have learnt a lot about computer graphics the last couple of months and I feel that I can apply my knowledge more diligently into a program that isn't limited by Minecraft's basic style. (Dav-imator confirmed)
A project like this will however require more knowledge about animation on my part (I'm still kind of a noob to this, I mean, have you seen 5ever?), which is why I'll probably be taking some animating courses and having a look at some of the "real" animation programs out there before making this, for inspiration and to see how the pros do things.
If I ever create such a program (it's hypothetical at this point), I will of course allow "plugins", such as support for Minecraft blocks, mobs and schematics. I will also stay true to my usual philosophies when creating software, to make content creating a fun process, almost like playing a game.
Well, that's all on my mind. Keep an eye out for 1.0.0!
 
  PS. A few days ago I published my ray tracer, which some of you might have missed: http://www.mineimatorforums.com/index.php?/topic/40661-ray-tracer/

Title says it all
 
I tried a new method on bone breaking.
 

"Running On Rooftops Sure Is Dangerous, But It Gets Funner When You Get Used To It."
 
 
"I broke a promise, guys. Remember when I said that I was aiming for a 3 minute animation? Well... I failed to do so. Im Sorry." 

This is a piece I started several months ago, but got burnt out and stopped working on it for a while. But, I finally got it finished up and would love to hear everyone's thoughts!

I was originally going to use GasCreeper's Steve rig for this, but I had some trouble with it and just went with the one I made for my previous animation. I did, however, use animationalex's (or now, Gekko Shirakawa, I guess?) Villager rig - which worked nicely, so thanks!

I've let this drag on log enough. People have suspected me already and others already knew. It was only a matter of time until someone leaked the details.

Peoples opinions of my might change from this vid, but if that is the case then It cannot be helped.

helloeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!
 
as ya all know,i have 2 OC's one is the default mascot,GasCreeper
and the other new one is Lif,which people don't liked much because he was a saiyan
so i completely changed him ,now he is not a super saiyan.he now has his own personality
 
My personal opinion ,he is now much better and smexier
 
*Here have a look
 

 
*another one with his signature sword
 

 
*and here's a moving GIF of him

Rules
 
*if you use this,give me credit 
*do not change any part of the body
*do not call this rig as yours

I guess it's ample time for another Mine-imator development update topic, but first off, happy holidays everyone. Hopefully you'll be spending this season in a nice, warm and friendly place, like in front of a computer animating and browsing the forums.
 
Boy, has this been a huge year for Mine-imator. The program have more than doubled in size since January (going from 20,000 lines of code to well over 50,000) and we saw the legendary 1.0.0 update being unveiled to the public eye. I've seen some really impressive things being done with it, despite it being in a slightly buggy and unfriendly demo stage at the moment. The creativity of the Minecraft community never ceases to disappoint!
 
You've probably been noticing the lack of activity in the dev blog since September and would like to have it explained. We'll here are a few reasons for this:
 
GameMaker
Creating a complex 3D animation studio in GameMaker is completely idiotic. I've been enjoying the challenge so far though. Well, everything except the fact that its subpar interface/code editor can barely handle the giant that is Mine-imator. Writing, debugging and compiling code has slowed down tremendously the last year due to the size of the program.
There have also been some major bugs with GameMaker that affect Mine-imator and its usability that has further delayed 1.0.0 and the demos, some of them still unfixed to this day. Luckily the YoYoGames team are working on GM:Studio 2.0, scheduled to be released in 2015, which may make development easier and faster. School/Work
I'm currently acing computer science at university and doing some freelance work which eats up a decent amount of time. Motivation
Working on the same project for nearly 3 years all alone with no pay certainly is tiring, but I'm starting to get back into the code after the unannounced hiatus from September to now.
  So, what's going on now? Well, I'm reworking some of Mine-imator's code (and adding the final, heavily requested features of 1.0.0) and realizing how much I've evolved as a programmer the last year alone. Even though I haven't made much profit from Mine-imator, I've learnt many things about 3D computer graphics and running a community, knowledge that will in no doubt help me in the future. Hopefully 2015 will bring the final release of 1.0.0 and many updates after.
 
What else to expect in 2015?
A completely remade Stuff By David site, featuring a friendlier and more modern design. A brand new Mine-imator download page, updated Disqus board (perhaps on a separate page so you guys don't have to scroll down all the time, what do you think?) along with the release of 1.0.0. Possibly some animation projects from me.  That is all.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b63Y_uABgGM&list=UUgU96NeglbPZIfclA9C6GPQ
 
 
I wanted to make something with a strong emotional basis and an epic setting, and I love natural weather phenomena (movies like Twister, Armageddon, etc.), so I came up with this concept of a man out with his dog getting caught in a meteor shower.
 
I know there's a few quirks (especially with the particles), but I did my best to smooth things out; in short, I never want to work with particles again! Haha.
 
This is my first Steve rig I've made (thanks to those who responded to my help thread about the clipping issue by the way!) so I did my best to give the character as realistic emotion as I could.

Helllloooooeeeewwwww!
 
I wanted to take a break from Animating so i started RIGGIN!   Leave like if you like this!
