The stock Rabbit character you get with A:M is another example of this technique ( and better done than i have done here). That is a good one to study.

Oh wow! This is actually so helpful for something I am trying to right now for a certain hobby project. I have been trying to figure out the best way to handle eye pupils without always having them be relative to a spheres surface but rather a more custom (still curved) flatter surface, but I never thought about adding a pose to alter eye shapes while keeping consistency with pupil movement across the eyeball surface. Very helpful!

Eye control added to the M&M M&M Eye control.mp4

It's step 1 in the fix. I'm just most likely done for the weekend. I will move reports to server 02 most likely next weekend. The data is already on the data server. But the site is on a server that is not part of the working cluster

Thanks Jason!!

You're right... that didn't make any sense. But I'm glad you're on top of it! Does any of that fix the slowness of reports.animationmaster.com?

Ok last one! Here is the front end of that!

Ok last post of probably this weekend, I have my local problems figured out! Next weekend I will work on reports slow loading as that is something that should go fast

Hi gang, Been while. I purchased a year subscription but download link left me nowhere. Help? Rusty

Another big step forward! I have some local stuff to work on but, I really did more forward. I now have 2 servers and 1 data server working together. https://home.jdsimonds.com/speedtest/ Is on server 01 https://test.animationmaster.com/speedtest/ Is on server 02 They both share a back end data server, so if you run the test on at one URL the data is available on the other URL https://test.animationmaster.com/speedtest/results/?id=008p8n4 https://home.jdsimonds.com/speedtest/results/?id=008p8n4 Now I can start moving things that are not able to move to the new server with out hours of work to update, convert, and test

I know this will not make since to everyone but I have sent hours of reading & google'n and test I have moved forward! I have been working on this error, for moving things that at this time will not work on our new host to my server. The client needs a new connection for this request as the requested host name does not match the Server Name Indication (SNI) in use for this connection. It ends up it's fixed by this small line of code Now I can keep my stuff on my server and Animation:Master on it's own server. This is a big deal because I use my server for testing and random stuff that can make Animation:Master unstable now Animation:Master will only have to come down on full server restart, not because I had been drinking and thinking to myself I need to try this!

Fantastic work Yopachi!! Thanks for sharing.. will have to give this a try.

Park yourself in front of your PC for Live Answer Time at Noon CST, December 6 2025! Wallace & Gromit creator Nick Park was born on this day in 1958

Fuchur, I always enjoy seeing your Advent calendars, they are very cool.

What does it do?

A new feature on the way...

Thanks for showing how to load the game! DOS games are notoriously dodgy to start (even on original hardware) it's an entirely click based gallery of AM renders. find all twelve monsters to see the end screen. I should add, if you are running another operating system than windows, download the DOSBox launcher for your system: DOSBox Pure versions for other systems

That looks very interesting, Yopachi! I never played Myst, is the game play entirely by pointing and clicking? For people like me who have not done this before... To get started, you unzip the download file to your HD, then drag the MONMAN3D folder onto DOSBoxPure.exe that should bring up a text menu. Click on MONMAN3D.EXE

Thank you very much Robert. Hope everbody has a great pre-xmas time. Best regards *Fuchur*

I just finished my first game jam! (community effort to make small games or demos in a short amount of time) The theme was to make anything that runs on pre-windows pc, a.k.a. runs in DOS. My idea was to make a pre-rendered game of click-able images and animations like in the game Myst. So, I put in some research and decided to use a game creation tool called Adventure Game Studio. I did borrow assets "Sir Nigel" and "Eddy" found on cd's in my collection. Everything else was splines by hand and trackball mouse. Link to the game download page: Monster Mansion 3D

I didn't build the software or add-on that sends the links but it only allows one. So I made this. It's simple and effective https://faq.animationmaster.com/index.php?action=faq&cat=1&id=48&artlang=en

Since the latest installer is always at the same URL, perhaps the email could read

I saw that, it's on the list. I think I'm going to be sent to the FAQ. but it's been that bad for a long time so one thing at a time.

I think that email also needs a clearer message about what that link is for and how they can find the installer since that address doesn't actually take them to a download.
