cinema4d animations

[dafreeman]

hello,

does anyone know how to export animations in cinema 4d?

[dafreeman]

I've found the solution

You can export Cinema4d animations with the plugin "XPort".
The standard direct3d-exporter of cinema4d is not really useful.

Link to plug-in

But there is an another problem: I can see the animation in DirectX Viewer but I don't know how to start it in Brume.
(I don't know how to give a name to the animation)

Hi,

You said that you can see the animations in DXViewer. Are you using a .X file ?
If so, all you have to do is to load the .X in Brume and extract the animations as in the demo :

Code: Select all

            BrumeXMesh tinyMesh2 = new BrumeXMesh(this, "tiny2", "tiny_4anim.x", true);
            BrumeAnimationManager.AddAnimationsFromMesh(tinyMesh2);
            BrumeLightedObject tiny2 = new BrumeLightedObject(this, "tiny2");
            tiny2.Animation = BrumeAnimationManager.GetAnimation("Jog");



If your animation has a name, you can find it in the .X file or just take a look at the anims that Brume extracts (it's a List)
If the anims have no names, I think you can try to add a prefix using the same method :

Code: Select all

        public static BrumeAnimation[] AddAnimationsFromMesh(BrumeHierarchicalMesh mesh, string animationsPrefix)


but this way you can play only one anim.
