SonAnima Posted May 7, 2024 Posted May 7, 2024 So I taught myself how to animate (finally) and when exporting from 3ds to fallout there are some problems. First no sound plays at all during the animation, no bullet flies out when the bolt on the bolt rifle opens up, and the bolt handle itself becomes invisible during the animation for some reason. If theres anyone here that can help me solve these issues it would be very appreciated. I can post a video of the problem here if needed.
SonAnima Posted May 7, 2024 Author Posted May 7, 2024 Reloaded the BoltChargeReady animation in 3ds opened the dope sheet and I see nothing pointing to sounds for the animation at all. Strange.
DiodeLadder Posted May 7, 2024 Posted May 7, 2024 (edited) Hello SonAnima, I'm sure you've followed the Rizzler's tutorial, but that's not working for you? I don't think I do anything differently here to get the annotations to work. Just to be sure, are you selecting the "Root" (in schematic view, you can find it in the top left area) when editing the annotations? Edited May 7, 2024 by DiodeLadder

Expand Yea The Rizzler tutorial really didnt help but The Shiny Haxious tutorial did. Adding annotations is no longer a problem but now I have a new problem. During the WPNBoltChargeReady animation the weapon shakes during the animation which is weird as I never edited the stock to move only the bolt. Idk why its doing that (I didnt add annotations in the video as I was checking to see if the animations even works) but any tips would help. The simple stuff like the bolt being pulled too high is easy to fix. https://imgur.com/a/wn0IdFZ

Maybe you can hide the shaking by making the weapon jiggle and wobble more?

SonAnima Posted May 9, 2024 Author Posted May 9, 2024 And in theory I should be able to add as many annotations as I want while in 3ds max? I want to add an extra sound to the bolt action.

Expand No, it should stay attached, since that is the skeleton the game uses. What I was suggesting was that you should distract from the shaking in your animation.
