Topic: Which One do You Prefer?

Which walk cycle do you prefer/use more? 4 Frame, 6 Frame, or 8 Frame?

Re: Which One do You Prefer?

I usually use the 4, though I'll be using the unmentioned 5 frame in my next film. mini/tongue

Re: Which One do You Prefer?

as I make it, it differs. I go with whatever seems right. My average is 5.

Re: Which One do You Prefer?

Not all my lego legs like the 6 frame walk, it's really hard to have them in the middle of the walk without falling over. I use the six a lot, but I probably should try out some more walk cycles. mini/confused

Re: Which One do You Prefer?

I use 8 frames because I think it looks pretty good.

I ... don't know. Let me watch one of my films and get back to you.:P

Re: Which One do You Prefer?

I usually use the 4 when the minifig is outside, and the 6 when he's inside.

Re: Which One do You Prefer?

I tried out the 6 frame walk a few minutes ago and it looks a little better than the 4 frame. Maybe I'll try out the 8 frame later mini/wink

Re: Which One do You Prefer?

8 frame? That must be a nightmare to animate.

I alternate between 6 and 4 depending on whether I'm feeling lazy or not.

Re: Which One do You Prefer?

5 or 6

Re: Which One do You Prefer?

I always animate at 4. Probably because I'm too lazy too animate more than 4 frames a step mini/tongue.

Re: Which One do You Prefer?

4, but mainly 5.
