  1. If you mean the resolution of the interface itself and not the animation you're rendering, no, there's unfortunately not a way to change it as of right now without changing your computer's resolution as you say.

  2. While it didn't need to get hostile, Mineshaft has a fair point. What he's saying is that it's hard to get people interested in the future of your series if you don't explain/show why they should be interested. Star Wars gets you interested in the rest of the movie because you're put right into the action. You may not know who anyone is, or why they're fighting, but there's immediately clear good guys and bad guys and a fight to be interested in. The Matrix gets you interested in the rest of the movie because Neo is sent some ominous messages through how computer that call him to action. No explanation is needed as to who this is or what it's all for, of course, but there's already a hook for us to get caught on. This strip, by contrast, doesn't immediately give us something to follow. We only know this character isn't supposed to be in this place because you had to explain when someone got confused. It isn't immediately evident what they're even screaming at.

    It's not a bad idea for a comic series of course, and you've got characters. I really think the problem could be solved simply by having a page instead of a 3-panel strip, or just a few more panels, enough to at least explain that they've clearly been taken from their normal atmosphere and get us invested in the characters themselves.

    That's just my take. Be nice to each other please, none of you are truly wrong. ?

  3. Slightly convoluted, but to switch cameras you need to make them "visible" in the keyframe options. So the camera you don't want to use anymore you switch Visible to off, and at the same time switch the new camera to Visible. And I don't mean visible as in clicking the eye icon in the timeline, I mean at the very bottom of the sidebar when you have the camera selected. I would give a screenshot if I was on my computer right now.

  4. I like how this has more content per topic than other comics. Some that I see are just a single page. One thing I'd like to say though is instead of using "door opening/closing sounds" you could get creative and use things like "schwoop" or "shvvvvt". Idk, what you use technically works but it could definitely be a little more creative or comic book-y if you'd like. Good stuff though, I like the comics.

    Welcome! A bit late this time around but the survey is back nonetheless, with some tweaks, some old questions removed, some new questions added, and fun fun fun fun fun fun fun fun! For those who don't know, the Mine-imator Forums Survey is an anonymous questionnaire to find out about who uses the forums. There are no personal questions, I can't see who you are, it's just to get your opinion on certain forum-related topics. If you're interested, here's the link! Results will be shared publicly (again, anonymously) in a few days.

  6. My guess is they put the camera in layers of folders, using specific folders to move specific directions. This allows you to keyframe movement directions and rotations separately from each other to make smooth arcs. It also lets you use special transitions for movement without affecting, say, the rotation.

    Edit: The video @radhouane2001920019@ shared is what I mean. It's been a common trick for years, I found it through KicksBrickster who no longer uses the forums.

  7. Can confirm, it probably won't happen. It's possible to convert it, but making the controls work well on a touchscreen, the interface look good on a small screen, and the program run well on a device way weaker than the average computer are completely different beasts to tackle. In the long run it's just not worth it. It's been suggested many times over the years, but the answer is always no. In fact, I think I suggested it a few years ago. It's just too much effort for something that is guaranteed to not work well.

    It's gonna' take a lot of time to finish this though due to life obstacles... considering that this video has no clear premises or any kind of thing to tell you what it is...which makes it nothing like a teaser or a trailer... even though unfinished projects can go here...

    i think it should go to random/test instead... finished ones will go directly into narrative animation section eventually anyways.

    Also... this was intended to go to random/test before i realize that WIP and random/test are different things... the naming of the title is very random as well.

    All good, just making sure! Moved to Random/Test Animations.

    it's unfinished... it's still lacking the narratives and the subtitles for now.

    Even though the story is already written in the script.

    Wait... i just realized the difference between WIP and random/test forum....

    Self-reporting...

    I can move it for you if you feel like it should be, but if you plan on updating this project later and making another post then Work In Progress works great!
