2 years ago I was able to use text files exported out of Cinema 4D to drive animation in Ross. I can no longer find the tutorials that help me make it and I forgot the process. I’m looking for a video to help me out.

I can’t find our old appnote…so here is a screen shot of how to load the file up. You can edit that move file (mov) in Notepad/Notepad++. Its just a comma delimited file.

Thanks, I found an After Effects video that I was able to convert the key frames from Cinema 4d to AE to Ross.

Thank you,
