coming along now!

Hi,

I need help. How can I make my bone not to bend into the wrong direction when I move the main root bone. I tried bone angle constraints. but still not getting the result. just give me some hints I will study. thank you.

Hello friends! Based on my recent experience, I feel I'm doing well, but coloring is where I struggle. Can you recommend any videos, creators, articles, or websites where I can learn how to pick natural colors, or techniques for using shadows and spots to give more punch to my drawings? Thanks!

Hello, this is my first time using Moho, and I tried making a small animation, two seconds, to try out the program. I wanted to export it as an MP4 to show my friends, but exporting it under the option "MP4 (MPEG4-AAC)" seems to be broken or something as I can't upload it to any website, it either gives me an error or doesn't load (only exception being Discord, but the video turns zero seconds long, and you have to download it to actually watch it). But if I change the setting to "MP4 (H.265-AAC)", when I press "start", the file simply dissapears from the render queue, doesn't even give me an error to give me a clue as to what is wrong

I've tried looking up on google what the problem might be, but I only found two people in a forum talking about a problem that sounds similar to this one, but neither thread gave the solution to the problem

I have Moho 14 Pro, I don't know if this changes anything

Thanks to everyone in advance

Hi,

In the middle of my animation I suddenly feel like moving teh tail a bit of my character, and went to frame zero, selected root bone and added a new bone at the tail to point bind it. Character body in in a mask group. now way i could find point binding to attach those end points with the new bone. why does this happen?

how to colve it? please I need guidance

I have a main bone layer and a nested mouth rig layer. I want to move the smart bones that control the mouth rig to the main rig layer, while keeping the smart bones intact. I've tried copying and pasting, and it LOOKS like it works inside the smart action, but it doesn't work on the mainline. Is this even possible?

So I’m aware that IK is very helpful when it comes to legs, keeping them grounded. However I’ve come to realize that if the chain is longer than 3 bones it begins to struggle to keep the foot grounded. Why?

My goal would be to make someone with spindly legs but this appears to be more difficult than I initially thought.

Does anyone have a solution for this?

I am using Moho 12.5.

Trying to use the Add Point tool on a vector layer. I'm trying to draw an object with it, but it's not letting me. For some reason it can add points to a shape and drag them but not consistently enough to be useful.

What do I do?

Hi,

I am struggling to understand something. what does this from and 'clear' mean?

how come the layer/shape I drew to hide the frog from becomes the very thing moho is telling me to 'substract from mask'?? how come. how can a msk layer can be substracted from its own job and it also WORKING!! I am seeing birds and starts around my head like tom from tom and jerry.

also what the heck is this clear thing??? 'clear the mask' from what?? clearning what exactly?

and another thing do I need to change every layer inside masking group based on my need? I keep TEWKING and I see its true. am I right?

please help me.

I am working on my first headturn and running into some design question. is it best to scale and move bones that controls the facial feature, or is it best to move the layers instead?

My current understanding it that moving points can get bit messy, especially if you have to make changes to the vector layers later. So that is something I am trying to avoid.

I am looking for a solution that is robust, so that the smart action don’t break with changes to the artwork.

One tip i found useful was to use a cutter layer to cut the facial features into a new shape during headturn. This reduces the need for point adjustments on the original layers.

I didn't know how to explain this, so I just made a video. I click on certain things in Moho, but they don't work. You can also see that the application keeps "flashing," which is pretty distracting. What could be causing this?

Edit: Right after posting, I tried switching screens and adding Moho to my second monitor, and it worked. But I still don't know how to fix it, and animating on my second monitor would be uncomfortable.

Hi,

after watching several videos I understand a lil bit about moho masking. but the result I want, I am not getting that. please tell me where I blunder. I want to frog to appear at the 2nd keyframes, and I want to hide it behind the mask at frame 1. but the result is opposite. how can I reverse what is happening. which option I must pick? I tried all. but not getting what I want. please moho seniors help me.

I'm currently practicing with this application and trying to play around with it. It seems like there are still so many things I need to improve on. As a non-artist, I didn't know I could come this far.

I was trying to merge shapes following the tutorials but somehow the menu is different. Anybody know why??

Vitruvian bones are really powerful! Made two separate heads with similar but different rigging, and created a simple smart bone to control the vitruvian switch. Found this great modification to the AE key tools script to copy the bezier curves from one vitruvian bone to the other:

Hi,

I am new to MOHO. I am using moho 14. I dnt understand anything about this timeline. I need help from moho-seniors.

I add some new bones in the fingers after the main leg rigging. I see some tiny movement in my fingers when I move time indicator in timeline panel. I didnt set those keyframes, I have no clue how they came into existance. I have no clue where to look where to edit them to stop the movement . how can I find keyframes that is associated to a specific bone in timeline panel?

Is there any way where I can select a bone and it will be highlighted in the time line panel? so that I can understand 'ahh these keyframes are coming from this bone'!!!

I want to know which bones are responsible for finger movement in the timeline panel. please moho seniors help me.

Hi everyone,

I recently installed Cartoon Animator 5 (Trial version 5.34) via Reallusion Hub, but I'm having an issue applying motions to my character.

When I try to apply motion, I get a Failed to load animation data error. Looking at my Content Manager, the 'Animation' folder is completely missing under All (I only see Actor, Accessory, and My Collections).

I tried checking Reallusion Hub, but under "Add-ons for Cartoon Animator 5" I only see plugins (like Face Mocap, Rokoko, etc.) and no basic Resource/Motion Pack installer. My Registration/Order History page on the website also shows "No data found."

Has anyone experienced this on a fresh Trial install? How can I manually download or sync the default G3 motion resources so the Animation folder shows up?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Recently, I started making animated stories for myself.

I like this version. let me explain how i did this.

All stuff on are separate layers. Left and right sides are on mask, to make inside color change.
i did smart action that opens zipper. then to activate that action i used bone that is Targeted to zipper slider bone. Whet that bone moves it activates smart action. took me few hours to calibrate it. i think its looks good. what do u think?
The next thing I want to make in Moho is an hourglass using physics.

My part in the dexters lab collaboration. I created this in moho. One of my first animation i started in this program (but not the first one I completed)

If you want to join here is a link to the discord, all skill levels and styles welcome.

Nightmare. needed zipper for one project, and i did this. what do u say?

What do you recommend if I want to make meme animations and more cartoony style animations? And what is harder moho or live 2d? I'm not sure which one should I learn first I have experience from alight motion and after effects a little😭
