3ds Max Animation Tutorial for Railworks

Unread postby mikeadams2k » Wed Jun 29, 2011 5:26 pm

Hello,
I've uploaded a 3ds Max tutorial for animating steam loco valve gear, to the file library. The tutorial was done using Max 2010, but the .max files are Max 8. I've included examples of several types of valve gear, including one using an inclined cylinder/piston. (I don't know how long it takes for the file to become available in the file library.)

Thanks, Larry.
I checked and rechecked it before uploading it, but still have found some omissions and errors. Plus, I've been shown an easy way to animate the wheels via a script, rather than keying it in. I'll try to upload an addendum soon.
