    Default Just an animated dial thingy

    As it says on the tin, just a nonsense animation.

    Nice thingy, Egg. It reminds me of the movements of a marionette.

    With a timer like that it sure is hard to tell when the 'Egg' is done.

    A fun animation, though.

    Cheers everyone. There was a more serious side to it and that was to try to get linked objects acting together, like upper and lower arms and the hands or the articulated parts of a JCB digger etc. obviously XX hasn't got such linked kenetics (if that's the correct term) but I found this work-around worked very well.

    "inverse kinematics", that's the chap! Kenetics wasn't too farout at 4 in the morning (a cross between Kinetics and Genetics) ;-) Cheers Steve
