uh. 13:42 There's no option to mirror it, and pressing Shift +Ctrl + V does absolutely nothing. So until I can figure out how to mirror it like she did, I'm stuck. Any tips?

[@BrianKouhi]

@@gravemistakes8427 For Ctrl + Shift+ V (pasting reverse), are you making sure to select the key you want to copy and paste reverse? Also make sure your cursor is on the timeline while doing this. Depending on where your cursor is, you can do different actions with the same hotkeys. So just to be 100% on the same page. Select all of the controllers you want to copy, set keys on them again (to make sure they all have keys otherwise you can't copy a key if there is none), then select and copy the key in the timeline, move the playhead to where you want to paste, and with your cursor still in the timeline, CTRL + SHIFT + V

Once I moved the foot, I added keyframes, I copied those frames to the 24 frame mark, then when I went to paste it in reverse on the 12 frame mark, it didn't work, just pasted te same frames I had already put down. I tried another three times and got the same result. Maybe i need to restart or something?@@BrianKouhi

bro make another video without addons

[@BrianKouhi]

@@Zaff_0GThere is no add-ons being used to make this video, outside of the RigUI of the character itself, which every character usually has.

I really adore this cute Robot you guys made 🥺, I playtest and animate with it a lot before I got my hands on Max & May haha

[@Emti_597]

I already done this course. Very helpful. Can you make a video what to do next after learning the intermediate level animation? Also love your video.😁

[@oscar_tebor4123]

hello Brian, can i ask if the free rig models are prepared to be imported into unreal or unity?

[@BrianKouhi]

Hey Oscar, we've only tested the TOAnimate Bot rig in Blender. You can try using it with game engines at your own risk :)

[@oscar_tebor4123]

okay! thanks!@@BrianKouhi

[@fireteamstudios3959]

Thanks for the free files, however when i download the file i get this file name: TOAnimate Robot Rig V1.6 , and when I try to install it Blender says it was installed but there is no Add-on to activate.

[@BrianKouhi]

In the exercise files below the Robot download, you should download the TORigUI (TOAnimate Rig UI). That's the addon you should install as an addon, not the rig file. Make sure to check it on after installing.

[@fireteamstudios3959]

@@BrianKouhi I looked into the zip file and I saw no items with UI in the name, i appended it to blender 4.1, 4.0.1and 4.0.0 according to the PDF and i saw nothing

[@BrianKouhi]

@@fireteamstudios3959 okay thanks for letting me know, I'll look into it. We recently updated the file so maybe something went wrong

[@wildanrosyada7787]

@@BrianKouhi i think the file still doesnt have the ui. oh the ui was already in the blend file? then how do we usi it ouside other blend file?

​@@BrianKouhi Hi, I'm having the same problem, have you found the solution?

[@babaksobhani1307]

hello it is funny but the link you put on your website for the free rig is MT, just a plane a camera, and a bunch of other stuff , there is no robot rig in the scene. I looked for it in different parts of your website and downloaded the new blender version as you mentioned in your video.

[@BrianKouhi]

Hey Babak, the exercise file doesn't have the robot in it, if you scroll up just a little bit above the exercise file, you'll see the download form for the Robot rig. That's why in the video we show how to append/link a rig into the scene, so you learn every step of the way :)

[@babaksobhani1307]

Thank you 👍👍👍👍

[@SeanLake3D]

The addon is installed, and checked off, but it's not showing "N", when pressed. Any ideas?

[@BrianKouhi]

It should only show up when you have the robot in the scene, and selected in posemode, since that's the only time you'd need it.

[@mukhlisinbagol1105]

You do not useing quaternion for animating?

[@BrianKouhi]

No :)

[@mukhlisinbagol1105]

@@BrianKouhi you never use quaternion for animation?

[@BrianKouhi]

@@mukhlisinbagol1105 Nop, Euler

[@mukhlisinbagol1105]

@@BrianKouhi If you want to make a downward movement, does it have to be like this, bro? If using a gimbal, it gets locked kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKTXdaV6etGSgLssi=sqOzNXC6pKieWnJI

[@BrianKouhi]

Use local to animate it instead of gimbal, and press 'i" to set keys on every attribute for every pose.
