  • 1.  Multiple Animations in 1 scene

    Posted 09-11-2013 22:18
    I have a scene with a L3rd that animates on and then I placed a pause on it to hold it in place until I hit the "take" button to fly it off. I tried to add another animated graphic to this scene that animates in and runs for 2 minutes continuously. When I did this, both animations stopped at the pause. I only need the L3rd to have the pause and not the other animation. Is this even possible? If so how can I accomplish this. I want to run 2 animations in the same scene but only want the pause to stop 1 of the animations and not the other.

    Thank You

    Probably you would need to separate these into two scenes on different layers. The pause will pause the entire scene director and that is why both animations stop.

    If you're running version 5.1 you might be able to make use of the new multiple scene director feature, to be able to have two different scene directors running at the same time. I haven't ever tried to build something like this. You would most likely need a script to start the second scene director running. An event on the first scene director that plays the second scene director would probably be the easiest. When I have some spare time I'll see if I can figure out a simple way to do this.
