add IBallisticSquid and AshDubh,
By the way, nice rigs!

This has probably already been talked about, but I think being able to use inverse kinematics on mine imator characters it would be easier to animate. Personally, I find using ik really easy.
Does anyone else have this idea?
P.S. if you don't know what ik is, search it up.

Wow that's impressive. Good job Darl!

That's pretty good. When you've done all the ones you want to, release them in a rig pack yeah?

Guys, if your a fad hater please don't post anything because it doesn't help at all.

Guys don't get annoyed about the flatlands.
This is just a test.

thats all for now

For everybody to enjoy the Mine-imator forums, we must make an effort to follow some guidelines.
Speak English
English is the language of the internet, including the Mine-imator forums. You can speak in whatever language you want in PMs, though. Don't create duplicate topics
Keep the amount of topics to a minimum to improve the browsing experience for other members. Don't make more than one account
It takes up forum space, causes confusion between members and makes moderation a headache.
Alternate accounts will be detected, removed and a warning issued to the original account. Post in the correct subforum
If you're unsure, see the header in each subforum to see what you can and what you cannot post there.
Topics that are posted in the wrong place will be moved by a moderator. Don't use oversized signatures
To save everyone from breaking their mouse scroll wheel, keep the signature size to a minimum. 200-250 pixels tall is the absolute maximum. If your signature is ridiculously tall, a moderator will remove it and give you a warning. Don't abuse the Reputation system
The Reputation system was made to highlight  and incentivize helpful and constructive posts. Do not give up- or down-reps to a member just for the sake of increasing or decreasing their rank, or create shops to harvest Reputation in exchange for services. Doing this will result with a warning and eventually your Reputation reset to 0. Don't chat
The forums are for intelligent discussions and not small talk. If you want to chat, go here or use the PM system. Don't use adf.ly or similar services
Unless you are the rightful owner of the thing you're linking to. Don't post a status update about a new topic you've started
If the topic is still visible under "Recent Topics" Do not revive dead topics
A topic is "dead" if the latest reply is more than 2 months old. Rather than bumping them to the top, start a new topic. You may revive your own topics, as long as you add new information. Topic revival is only allowed if the topic is posted in the Mine-imator creations or Mine-imator resources sections of the forums. Use the report button, don't resort to mini-modding
If someone is breaking any of the rules here, don't post anything. Rather, press the "Report" button in the top left of the offender's post. This will alert all moderators, leaving a message like "This is posted in the wrong forum!" will not. Taking matters into your own hands like this is called mini-modding, and posts like that take up space and do not add anything to the topic. Read more about mini-modding here. Do not impersonate others
This includes regular members, moderators or banned users (by using the infamous "BANNED" avatar) These things are not tolerated ANYWHERE on the forums (including the Discord and PMs)
Discussions of illegal subjects/activities (this includes software cracking, torrenting, etc.) Offensive/racist/rude behavior or imagery Bullying or discrimination Spamming (constantly posting the same content, nonsense or useless posts just to get noticed) Pointless swearing/overuse of CAPS Gore/Screamers or other frightening imagery Links to viruses/trojans/malware Images of/links/heavy references to sexual content Advertising potentially malicious products or sites (if you are unsure, ask a moderator) Flashing imagery or excessive use of colors, special characters, smileys and/or oversized fonts Breaking the above rules will result with a warning sent to you by a moderator/administrator. Repeated warnings will result with a banning of your account.
 
 
If we follow these rules, we can all have a good ol' time!

Ima give u a reputation for two reasons. 1. its fad, and i love fad. 2. dat animation is sicko.

A short, using Darl's rig (Not public yet)

If ya hate FAD, ya know what to do. Don't reply at all and keep your opinions to yourself
 

Way too often I (and @Emunator too, I would presume. Maybe even @Aronan too?) get @'d on topics which supposedly require moderator attention. The official way to bring trouble to staff attention however, is to make a report.
The report button can be found on the top of every post:

Never tag a staff member unless it happens to be for a personal matter, otherwise it just risks drowning in the sometimes dozens of notifications we receive daily. It is also down-right frustrating to see a bunch of empty posts containing nothing but  "@Frossa" everywhere (which can technically be equated to spam, for that matter).
So stop. Make reports.

basically what the title says.
 
for the people that dont know, an IK rig is basically a  rig, where for instance if you move the foot, the leg bends instead of the leg going through the body, if that makes any sense
 
It would make animating a lot easier.
 
now i'm not sure if this is possible, but if it is. It would be really helpful

Ok I'll update it once more and then I'm done.
 
OK i'm not gonna change the brightness on the particles because it totally crashes my Mine-Imator

GUYS I UPDATED IT NOW!!!
 

Ok Thanks I'll update the picture in a sec

That's the thing, I don't know how to do that.
Could you send me a picture maybe?

Hey guys! I've made another picture which is better than my old one XD! P.S I know there are no particles. I tried to add them but they didn't show up in the render. 
UPDATE: I got the smoke in the render and I made the torch brighter.It is also 4K now.

Click on the torch and:
