About this video
Yay!.. I finally found the time - and the tools!.. - to learn how to create custom animations :)
Here's a quick and dirty edit of my very first animation ever (stuttering not included in the anim!.. I owe this to my stupid video capture program which loves eating up my VRAM). Not the easiest training exercice to have chosen to animate two actors at the same time and make them swirl around with music - but, well, it's done anyway...
I'm currently testing the script which is going very smoothly so far, once that's done I'll upload the mod in the Animation category.
Cheers guys!

I wish your pair quick studying. Looking forward to seeing them performing more partner dances.
But more seriously: 99 bones per actor and per frame X 30 frames per second... that's a lot a bones to rotate and adjust while trying to keep their hands locked together!.. I always suspected animation was hard, and I sure got to experience it first hand, as like I said, trying to animate 2 actors swirling to the sound of music was probably not the easiest training exercice I could think of!.. :/
Next anim, I'm thinking I'll probably try them pole fishing, just standing patiently by a river, waiting for a catch...
Regarding the ballroom dances, it's not the easiest thing in real life to study, requires years of trainging just to achieve the apprentice level, just to learn how to rotate your bones to the music. But 3d animation - it's simply incomprehensible to me, I think it's really hard to do.
I am floored by how seamless it is. Not to mention romantic.
Always a pleasure to see you around! And thanks a lot, you're possibly one of the nicest person on the Nexus
Come to think of it, I've never added you to my friends (a function I don't use much, I'll admit), do you mind?
Cheers, man!
Despite Beth's bad press at the moment, I still think that was an extroardinary playground they gave us with both the game and the CK. Oblivion and Fallout games too to a certain extent, but I find Skyrim much more open and versatile, with the many tools created by modders over the years, you can pretty much turn that game into anything you can dream of. Skyrim's kind of hard to let go...
