AlanW Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Hi, Hadn't realized that Vectorworks does not always ship with renderworks so i have added a link to the animation for water produced in Animation works. You can make doors open and fans spin, such a great thing for movies and walkthrough. All the best. Quote Link to comment
Jonathan Pickup Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Alan, Animationworks comes with the NZ and Australian versions, but you can add it to Vectorworks if you want. I'm a big fan of it, it makes making movies very easy (not timeline to deal with) and as you say, you can animate objects (making doors open and cars move). here is a link to the web site: http://www.ozcad.com.au/products/animationworks.php Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Matt Panzer Posted March 24, 2015 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted March 24, 2015 Nice! Here's an example I created with AnimationWorks several years ago showing an animated waterwall. It was created by using several stacked panels (above the waterwall) that drop down one after another with a water texture applied. Quote Link to comment
AlanW Posted March 24, 2015 Author Share Posted March 24, 2015 Matt, Hi, yea I have seen that fly through before so how did you create the water, was it with AW Class Visibility or ??? I was thinking of how to do this. Regards Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Matt Panzer Posted March 24, 2015 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted March 24, 2015 Hi Alan, I used moving objects in AnimationWorks. In the model, there's a planter just above the water feature. I placed maybe 30 moving objects made up of one thin extrude all in the same location hidden in the planter. The extrudes were the full width of the water feature and maybe 24" tall. I had the objects drop from the planter one by one (like a garage overhead door). LOTs of experimenting, but it worked very well. Quote Link to comment
AlanW Posted March 25, 2015 Author Share Posted March 25, 2015 Great, Thanks for the response. I'll give it a try. Regards PS I have recently purchase your camera match add on and its fun to play with. Great work. Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee Matt Panzer Posted March 25, 2015 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted March 25, 2015 Alan, The key is to map the water texture on the panels so that they tile seamlessly tile between panels. I should also mention that Julian Carr came up with the "falling panels" idea. PS: I'm glad you're enjoying CameraMatch! If you even have any questions, let me know. Best, Matt Quote Link to comment
Fergy Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Is AnimationWorks currently alive and supported? On the site, only Matt's sample video works; the rest have errors. And other links on the site are many years old, such as the C4D versions. Quote Link to comment
