I'm beginning to figure out how the program works. Did not realize earlier you can control the sculpt with a mouse too, stupid me cause that's how it works usually in 3D apps.
Made some easy spirals and spins for a start.

Nidhogg, I figured out one of yours. I duplicated it almost perfectly. Racer-x, I'm still stumped on yours, but I haven't given up. Here is my duplicate for comparison and a couple of donuts.

I really like the morphing star animations. Care to post the screen-shot of the settings? Something about spinning money in a 3-D space is appealing to me for some reason.... Attachment: money2.gif [ 1.32 MiB | Viewed 5274 times ] |

Here's the star.  Wormhole closed.  Did not test how the animation works with this one yet, but it may possibly make you dizzy

My perspective is a side view. How did you get the top view? Attachment: star.jpg [ 264.68 KiB | Viewed 5262 times ] |

Try placing your mouse cursor over the sculpt, hold down left mouse button and drag  You can also zoom with the right mouse button, universal functions in 3D apps. This is funny, enable playback from the options menu. Then do a quick drag over the sculpt and release. |

I figured out the easiest way (for me anyway) to make fluid animations. I'm running Linux on an i7 computer. I use a free Linux screen recording utility called "SimpleScreenRecorder" to capture. I set axis turn to 0, start screen capture, then click and hold down on the edge. This animates the sculpture in 5 degree increments. When it hits 360, I stop capture and save. I use a capture setting of 10 fps and this makes the output 5 degrees per frame. I then edit the output file by cropping and trimming to start and Finnish. It only takes me a couple of minutes to do the whole thing and the results are pretty smooth. Attachment: money_star24.gif [ 3.04 MiB | Viewed 5244 times ] |

That is an awesome way to do it. I do the axis 0-360 manually. Click, 5 degrees, screen capture, next. It takes a while, but I love the results. |
