Converting aniBlocks into regular keyframes (and back)
In this quick tip I’ll show you how to convert an aniBlock into regular keyframes to make a change to the animation, then turn it back into an aniBlock for use with aniMate. The process is simple, yet not exactly obvious.

DAZ Studio 4.12 Beta – a Sneak Peek – 3D Shenanigans #25
On today’s stream I’ll take sneak-peek at the new features in the brand new beta version of DAZ Studio 4.12. It was released earlier this week, and it’s all about better animation tools: integrated features from GraphMate and KeyMate, and IK Chains inside a scene hierarchy.
The highlights in this version are:
* overhaul of the regular timeline* integration of the KeyMate and GraphMate functionality* addition of IK Chain feature for regular scenes* Viewport Performance setting finally defaults to “best” rather than “none”
There’s a complete list of new features is here, and the full changelog can be found here.
You can download the beta from here (it installs in parallel to the release version and will not affect your current settings or library).
Patreon Supporters can get download the scene files from this stream here.
Many thanks to Mike Myers for suggesting this topic for today’s stream ☝️ -
Trying out Chocofur Asset Management for Blender 2.8 – 3D Shenanigans #24
In this episode I’ll try to install the Chocofur Asset Management add-on for Blender. It’s recently been updated to Blender 2.8, but right now not so easy to find on their website. Chocofur have lots of free assets to try out, perhaps we can work out how this works together.
I was unable to get this thing going during the live stream, so I’ve made another video the next day to explain how to make it work.
The podcast episode is only the second part, which contains the solution to this mind bending puzzle.
