"It's somewhat entertaining... i guess"

submission: my homevideo

date: September 17, 2004

I do have to say though that the skateboarder who fell between the two park benches made me laugh.

I don't know, it isn't really anything new, yet it's nothing real classic either. Just a bunch of people hurting themselves. Shoot a little higher and ill give you a better score.

"Has its points..."

submission: Three in one Tutorial

date: September 15, 2004

I think the preloader tutorial was awkward, however, the other two seemed to be easy enough to understand. How to make a cursor is a question that people bug me about all the time, and it's good you made it simple enough for anyone to understand. Good work! Work on your preloader tutorial and you got it. Oh i like the music too.

"Okay, good for beginning s3D"

submission: 3D [rollercoaster]

date: July 10, 2004

It was okay... you need help.

Okay, you using the free-roaming camera was the right thing to do. What you need to do is to

1) Take away the blocks and make ladder-type structures out of the cube primitives. You can copy and paste and rotate over and over again to make a pretty good looking track. Easy and simple. Stick different primatives together to get better effects.

2) The extrusion and lathe tools are good for anything that is different, like a loop or something.

3) Using some texture materials, like woods or metals would be awesome.

4) Spread things out, the camera in Swift3D is very wide, so things need to be spaced.

5) Try hard to time turns and rotations, swift3D uses automatic easing in the animations, so any keyframes you place will ease in and out automatically unless you change the settings. Try to keep the speed of the animation constant.

Good luck, it looks good for only 6 days. Im impressed. if you need anymore help ask.

Kept me entertained, learned some stuff I never knew... interesting...

"Nice style"

submission: Skecth Playing!

date: June 26, 2004

Interesting concept, frame by frame animation is great. I like the fact that the different objects flow into each other very smoothly. Just for the sake of being cynical, it would be cool if there was some kind of plot, it's kinda random.

Score: 10

"Wow... animation is incredible"

submission: Star Wars Gangsta Rap: SE

date: June 20, 2004

I've been animating in Flash for about a year now, and the animation in this submission is among the best I have ever seen. For Flash, this is incredible. The music, the cut scenes, the flow, everything is perfect. I really encourage you to continue your efforts, you have raised the bar for Flash animation.

"Actionscripted Very Well"

submission: Maze Gen Challenges

date: June 1, 2004

I really admire your actionscripting capabilities. As a flash programmer, thats pretty incredible that you achieved something like that, and great file size too, haha. Congratulations. Only way you can make it better is to make it graphically appealing. It works, keep at it.
