BICICLO: Real 3D Motion model

while we are waiting that Apple decides to release Motion X and finally get out the ambiguity of a 2.5D application, I wanted to challenge myself, and build a complex model without the use of a dedicated font. All of the characters used are present in your Mac's fonts, mostly I used the fonts Apple Symbols, Apple Myungjo and Wingdings 2.
The model is a bicycle ancestor a Penny-farthing : “Biciclo”




Work was not very simple; surely with a dedicated font I would have added a pinch of greater reality, but in the end I think the result is good.




n the published parameters beyond the usual controls can adjust the position of the pedals together with the rotation of the front wheel and the frame color


As usual unzip the attachment and put the folder “Gift Package II“ in User / Your name / Movies / Motion Templates/ Generators / Pielle.
Have good fun Pielle!

I should like add some pictures but this evening seems impossible Sorry.

hmmm ...



… grabbed the preview from plugin folder, funny bike!

… but: tried 3x to open the motn file = 3x freezes my Motion… probably, my low-end system is overwhelmed by complexity?

I'm sorry Karsten ! tried to open the attachment and it's all ok, it opens with two clicks in 15 sec. Not so slow, I thought I set rendering to best but instead it is normal. Try checking for incompatibilities or corrupt characters. Now I try to upload some pictures
Ciao let me know

Opens for me, slowly, but opens. Wow, that's amazing.

Third attempt


no hope in sight

Now i try to put pictures in attachment

from your attachment:








(the boards software is a bit … iffy with pic sizes; reduced your 1900 to 720pix …

conc. Not working here:
have to wait ~5min (five!) to make it appear in my Preview window … hahahaLOL, my brave underpowered MiniMac :silly:

Thanks Karsten with your help I went out of this nightmare. But the thing sounds me strange because full HD is the size I usually use to publish my templates from ever and I never had a problem. I put in attachment an old version work in progress.It lacks of some parts, maybe it's ok for your system, try it
with friendship Pielle

Opens fine with decent playback (avg 17 fps) on my late 2013 MP.
