Fist Animations?

Natal King 7 years ago updated by tmpxyz 7 years ago 1

Hi do any of you know how to make a character's hand ball up into a fist for fighting animations? Oh by the way can Skele be used alone or mostly alone for making animations while developing a Unity3d game? I ask this because my resources are limited and I cannot afford Autodesk software nor the new iClone 7. :(

Hi, Natal King, 


Thanks for your feedback :)


1. how to make a character's hand ball up into a fist for fighting animations?

Do you mean clench the hand? Well, you could just use two groups of keyframes for half-clench and full-clench.

e.g.: at frame7, you record the keyframes for hand being half-clench, and at frame 15, record keyframes for hand being full-clenched.


2. Can Skele be used alone or mostly alone for making animations while developing a Unity3d game?

Yes, you can make animation with Skele alone in Unity3d. 


3. My resources are limited and I cannot afford Autodesk software nor the new iClone 7. :(

If you need a free modeling software, you could check out Blender, I've been using it, I prefer it to 3dsmax.

Also if you need some free humanoid models & animation resources, check out the adobe's Fuse and Auto-rigger, I think you might find it useful in some circumstances.
