  • 1.  XPression - Maintain Looping Animation Across Takes

    Posted 01-31-2022 16:13
    An object utilizing the Continuous Animation feature will keep playing regardless of multiple takes using the same scene -- it never resets.

    I'm trying to have an object behave the same way, but utilizing an Animation Controller. My guess is that there's Transition Logic functionality to accomplish this (if it's the same scene being taken, don't restart animation), but I can't figure it out, nor can I find documentation or a video tutorial that mentions that sort of thing.

    Any ideas would be appreciated (I'm new to Xpression). Thanks

    If you're into scripting, you might be able to use scene director position data to position the "playhead" each time you take the scene on line after the initial.

    Malcolm is right you could try something in the scene coming online that looks at the currently online scene for position and copies that to itself.
