Engine Animation Tutorials

[tmg]

Hey ppl. I wanna know if anyone here knows where I could get some engine animaion tutorials. I have made an engine but need to know how to animate it realistically using something like "reactor" in 3DS 7.

so yeah, if anyone has some useful pointers as to where to go to get the help, or can help right now with some tips of "how to do it", that would help heaps.

cheers

you can make an engine animation with "solidworks" but i don't know for 3ds max

don't know of any tutorials out there for it. I would look at videos of engines and just work for that, turn it into short segments (animation's equiv of algorithms) and work from there. Fortunately it's just repeating the smae motions.

Max2 !!!!!!!

SERIOUSLY there have been H U G E changes since then with dynamic and reactor in 3DS Max.

If you are gouing to spend any time at all on that ... read up about thenew functions.

Have you searched Autodesk's main site, they have many movies and tutorials ?

Hi guys,

maybe a bit wide ranged, but for all those c4d users out there, I have a nice link :http://www.3d-meier.de/tut6/XPresso0.html

its a very nice mathematically description of some functions and also a nice introduction in using xpresso!
