Note: starting a pose in a new NLA track that's set to Replace and then switching it to Combine can break the pose, since it's switching coordinate types (absolute vs relative). The fix is to switch the Action Strip type to Combine before setting the pose.

>>29260410 (OP)

Last thread (https://boards.4chan.org/gif/thread/29241201) died too soon. It had a lot of good WIPs and advice from talented people, so give it a look.
And protest to the site admins to have this board go back to having 10 pages instead of 5. It's only hurting the organic threads.

Question: for future threads, should the 3-min NLA tutorial stay as a link in the OP or should it only be posted as a webm or both?

>>29260441
both imo. also I might suggest moving this helpful type of thread to something like /aco/, since it's a slower board and isn't full of... undesirable spammers...

sadly, /aco/ doesn't allow webms or mp4s with embedded sound

I found this: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1BkXOBk0yyhApFJANP4x0AL2mAQ1f5UHA

>>29260472
Missed you Elizabeth x

>>29260832
The laclkof sound isn't a total dealbreaker, especially for WIPs. But, is 3D animation even a thing on there or even allowed?

>>29261146
Nice. Has many of the Anime Nyan tutorials I linked in OP, plus maybe some from others?

The beginning and the end are just the best, especially the beginning, to the point that I don't like the other parts, because they feel like unwanted distractions, even though it's all pretty good.

>>29260410 (OP)
Is there a name for that position, or is it just "lying on her side"?

There were a couple addons mentioned last thread and I figured I'd put them in the OP pasta for later.
Are there any addons that any of you use to help with animation?
The ones I included are:
>Simplify+ claims to speed up viewport performance with a click
https://extensions.blender.org/add-ons/mustardsimplify/
>Playblast lets you quickly generate video previews of your animation to reference.
https://www.blenderkit.com/addons/93ad9257-b229-445b-8277-c702bde1eab4/
>>29262952
No idea.

Would /aco/ allow futa or beast content? I thought that went into the alternative board.
If non-vanilla content can't be posted, then that would really limit what kinds of animations could be worked on in those threads, assuming it'd be more successful than here.

Just another example of how an animation can be made from start to finish. I'm going to slow down on this

>>29263536
And then something I wanted to do as practice for fun today.
I'll need to figure out how to get spring bones to work properly with hair

>>29263536
Looks really good. Thank you for taking the time to compile this.
>I'm going to slow down in this
Are you intending to drop the "final" version in one of these threads or is there somewhere more "official" that people should look?

>>29262850
welcome king

>>29263550
That looks really solid for a practice effort. How long did each "layer" of animation take, roughly? I'm assuming you used that Layered Animation workflow you shared from the other thread, correct?

>>29262252
i fuckin hate who ever made this model
"durr ill add a hideous nonsensical tattoo just so i can see its mine"

>>29263092
not bad

>>29263771
It's the same guy who made the animation. Kind of fair that he personalizes it there. But, I think it's something you can disable (I haven't played with the model, so I could be wrong). It'd be insane if he baked it right onto the skin texture, though.

>>29262496
>is it even a thing/even allowed
Yes to both, though it's rare

>>29263404
futa is allowed (but should belong on /d/ desu), beast is not allowed
at the very least, the threads would last longer
you can also always just throw any beast anims into catbox and drop a link, you just cant dump the img straight into an aco thread

>>29263852
Okay, that seems fairly reasonable. I could try modifying the OP pasta text to include that as a suggestion for posters.

What was the "Planetbreakers" webm from last thread from? It looked like some hgame or h-mod, a image from a WIP or patreon scam, considering the movement of the player character and the way he snapped in and out of the animation.

rule34vault has the best thecount vids

>>29260410 (OP)
not exactly on topic(?) but animated threads are my only reason for being here. anyone else using 8moe/se? Obviously not as fast paced as here but there are some advantages. and threads, again obviously, don't die as quickly.
but also don't forget about aco, h and d
>controobuting

Hey there! I'm a 21-year-old girl from the US, a little on the voluptuous side and totally love being the one in control during those steamy chats. There's just something thrilling about teasing guys until they can’t take it anymore while I’m enjoying myself too. I'm always craving some naughty fun (definitely got those wild vibes!), but I struggle with anxiety, so meeting people face-to-face isn't really my scene. That’s why I’m all in on texting—it’s just way easier for me! Hit me up on 4 for fun: e-myz et-h (just make sure to remove the spaces and dashes). Can't wait to connect and get things sizzling!

>>29264501
No idea. It had some kind of editor's UI, but acted like a game. Did you want to repost it to see if anyone recognizes it?

why is everyone so obsessed with hyper sizes, they're disgusting

Wixards of 4han does anyone have that headscissor/necksnapping animation with the schoolgirl that was posted a few threads ago?

IDK who made it and neither did the poster but I NEED IT

>>29260431
When did it drop from 10 to 5? I could've sworn they just dropped it from 15 to 10....

Do you guys know any cool VR animators?
I wanna do something with my Quest 3 other than Beat Saber

>>29266478
>10 to 5
Late last year. The claim was it, along with the increase of delays between posting, was to prevent election spammers from taking ober or something. Made no sense for this board, because bots and brigades can handle the attention and uptime needed to keep threads alive, while more organic threads are often slower and less consistent, so it wound up just hurting the threads it was supposed to have "helped."
>15
Maybe that was before my time. I only remember 10, but maybe I just didn't pay attention too much to this board.

>>29265663
>casually exits the airlock
I was gonna ignore the giantess crap and be in awe of the animation but then they just...*sigh*

>>29265621
wow this one's almost perfect
would've liked the lights to stay on the whole time though so the texture would persist during orgasm

>>29260412
So how hard is it to get started from basically zero knowledge of 3D animation or Blender? I mean, I know I'm definitely not getting laid anytime soon, so I might as well subsume that sexual energy into learning something.

Hey there! I'm a 21-year-old girl from the US, curvy and full of energy. I absolutely love the thrill of flirty chats and pushing boundaries, especially when it comes to getting a little wild on cam. There's something super exciting about teasing and seeing how far I can take it while having a blast myself! I can be a bit of a homebody due to my anxiety, so connecting with fun people online is my jam. If you're into some steamy conversations and want to dive into that side of things, hit me up! You can find me on that messaging app everyone loves: e m-a qu o-n x (just remember to remove the spaces and dashes!). Can't wait to chat!

>>29267717
You should learn more valuable skills like human anatomy so you know where exactly to shoot yourself

>>29268444
lmao. Extremely baed trips. Deserved too.

>>29260832
Ok that video is kinda hot

>>29266403
agreed, its so tiring

>>29268444
very unauspicious trips

>>29267717
I mean, it's hard, but my goal with the tutorials in OP is to reduce the hurdle as much as reasonably possible. I don't have a "Blender basics" one in there yet because there's a ton of them and I didn't feel like going through them all to decide which one would likely be the best.
My recommendation would be to pick several different introductory Blender tutorials that aren't super long, just to get comfortable with the ideas. Maybe follow a short step-by-step tutorial for something (could be anything, honestly) just to get some hands-on experience with the tool before trying to animate a full character. Then, check out the tutorials in the OP.
You could probably start animating practice sex loops in a couple days, if you don't get too confused by things early on. If things aren't clicking, then it'll take maybe a couple weeks, but I'm confident that it doesn't need to take a very long time to get started. Getting *good* is obviously another story and I'm not there, yet, so I can't tell you how easy or hard that will likely be. But, I started these threads to both in-board total newbies lile yourself who are curious or interested, as well as to figure out the quickest, easiest, and best ways to get actually good, or at least decent.
>>29268444
Or he could learn something like gardening. Growing your own reaources is extremely based, and apparently very good for mental and emotional wellbeing.

>>29267551
yeero usually makes high quality stuff, he's on a hiatus now though
other similarly good artists are zmsfm, kreamu, thecount, dzooworks, nagoonimation, among others than I'm forgetting

Hey there! I'm a 21-year-old girl from the US, totally playful and a bit adventurous. I'm on the curvier side and love chatting about all the naughty fantasies that come to mind. One of my favorite pastimes is teasing until I see that guy completely lose control. I have a super playful side and can chat for hours about the spiciest topics. Sometimes I struggle with anxiety, so it's way easier for me to connect with fun people like you through messaging. I’m looking for some fun and flirty conversations, so hit me up! Add me on the app: Em-m-i-e-l-a-r-kx x (just remember to remove the spaces and dashes). Can’t wait to chat!

>>29267717
man bulging made 1 good animation and fell off

>>29269639
Thanks for the links anon. Got anymore ?

>>29270407
nah he made a bunch then dipped

>>29260784
Hydrafxx has godlike rendering and top tier animation skills, but some of his animations are just really bland in concept.

Maybe even saying bland in concept isn't right, this one is
>Having sex with two hot androids stacked ontop of each other
But it doesn't really have the impact you would expect from that description.

>>29271245
yeah vgerotica has the same problem
it's just exceedingly normal and like you said, bland

hey there! i'm a 21-year-old girl from the us, with a bit of a wild side. i love teasing and pushing guys to the edge during our spicy chats. there's just something so exhilarating about seeing who can hold out the longest while we both enjoy the thrill! i definitely have that nympho vibe, always ready to get steamy when the mood strikes. being a bit shy in public makes sexting feel like my secret playground, and it's way more fun to connect this way. if you're looking for some fun and excitement, add me: E-m-m ib-l-o-kz (make sure to remove the spaces and dashes) and let's turn up the heat together!

>>29269639
>"bestiality," not beastiality desu
I'd rank it lower, honestly.
