Cinema 4D Folding paper with two axis

	Cinema 4D Folding paper with two axis by Tiago Rosado on Nov 9, 2009 at 1:22:54 pm Hello! I usually work in Cinema4D for architecture visualization but a week ago i came across with a issue in a a small animation of a folding paper. As my rigging knowledge is a little bit spartan, after a few days trying to find any post related to this that could help, i came to to you guy's searching for some help. I have a sheet of paper that is folded in 4 parts vertically and 1 horizontally. And the animation consists in opening first the horizontal fold and then simultaneously the vertical folds. My problem: when i'm rigging the vertical folds, everythis is ok but when i insert the bones for the horizontal fold the result is a unwanted interference in the other segments of the sheed. Can anyone help on how to i accomplish this animation? Thanks! my working file: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=AJQM7Q83 Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index

I don't know if the new Skinning/Joint method will be different as I haven't played with it enough. Maybe a bunch of planes in a Connect object with xpresso to do the folding Respond to this post   •   Return to posts index
