Man, I didnt think id learn so many different useful techniques in 1 video. holy shit.
for anyone wanting to rotate the tracks
add a child of constraint to the tracks then select the curve as the target then unselect everything but y and z
(you might want to reverse x with y) then press set inverse.
then add another child of constraint with only the rotation x y and z selected but don't inverse this time
if it doesn't work you might want to set origin to geometry (f3 then type origin then set origin)
i litterally cannot thankyou enough my computer animation assignment is 3 months overdue cuz the damn tracks didint rotate
do you mean rotate as in rotating on any axis? Because whenever I rotate on any axis or move the curves on anything besides the x axis, the tracks deform
@@AnimatedAirlines yes he does
@@ragingcow ight, thanks
@@AnimatedAirlines also make sure you animate the flat treads in edit mode to stay near the tank
This has to be one of my top five 3D tutorial vids - you did an *excellent* job. Clear, dense, but also easy to follow. Subscribed just in case you're this great at teaching normally =D
This is the best video about blender that I had ever seen. Great job.
Thanks, the best blender tutorial ever, perfect with every key pressed.
This was very helpful, thank you.
I wish more blender tutorial were like this one. Subbed and now I will explore more of your work :D
Fast, tons of info, thanks a lot!
Woa woa woa, simple and easy. Thanks!!
Perfection, thanks!
Amazing, thanks!
very good tutorial, so helpful, than you a lot!!!!
Really helpful, thank you
Nice tutorial this helped me a lot 👍
i'd never expect for this to be that easy wow
Thanks very helpful tutz!
u r a god!!!
I'm intrested, where can I find those advanced tank tutorials you mentioned? it doesnt seem to be in the description
is it possible to animate it without having to move it back and forth? I need only the rotation of the tracks for character animation for unity! Thanks!
thank you, I am doing my project. I need this.
great expression, thanks
*AMAZING!!!!!!!*
this dudes got the answers!
thanku sir
awesome....
Very nice tutorials...i like it very much. Its same like chain animation. When you move the circle/curve along x axis, the tracks rotates and move forward/backwards, but if u move/translate only the tracks, it will rotates but not moving forwards. :)
Thx I needed this
Hi, thanks for video. How are you going to unwrap this track as a whole or by parts for further animation in game engines like unreal or unity????? Thanks
Hello awesome tutorial I Just have one question. How do u change the movement axis for the track? mine moves only when u move it on axis Z not Y
awesome
Can you do mesh to curve? My problem is, I have hollow tubes (mesh) of different shapes. I need a curve to run through the center of the hollow tubes, end to end . ..
Is it possible to add this or modify a static track model from a game prefab?, i have a tank model thats tracks are static but the road wheels and drives are classed as wheels :S
Great
Very good tutorial. Could you help me and tell me how to animate an antenna above a robot head. I would like that when the head of the robot move or rotate, the antenna move too with flexibility movement. I hope you understand what I want to do. Thank you for your help.
I NEED some help, I did what the vid said, but when I grab the tracks, they don't move like they should, what do I do?
Will this trasnfer over to unity... like anytime the tracks position changes/moves the tracks rotate in that general directions
when im in rendered view it is so bad rendered and without materials. but in layout it is fantastic. how can i fix it?
Can you also rotate the object without moving them.
How do i animate them in place if I'm just tryna export it for a game?
How would one export this for use in Unity?
I'm a bit of a tank nerd, and I can't help notice your P1000 Ratte. Nice! 5:46
I’m a WoT-guy too ;)
lol same I also play wot and cant help but just build tanks in blender. I used this too build a kv1
@@matthewarendse1913 ah cool! I have also building kv 1 in blender! Can I see what you have built?
How to import unity for track without location.
When i did shift D my copy came out crooked, why?
How would you go about exporting something like this to a game engine? Can I somehow bake the vertex positions to create blend shapes from the constraints? Would you go down a different route?
animation like this will not work in game engine, only rigging does
Awesome can u make a tutorial on making a star wars style laser cannon
I want to create a tank, it is possible join the array object with other object ?
This might seem dumb, but how did blender automatically add the rolling motion to the tracks? When you moved it, the tracks rolled too without any sort of 'physics programming' or whatsoever. I thought the tracks would just slide along when you moved it
Great tutorial though. Loved the tank in the end. Do you have an art station page of your work?
I don`t know, it`s just how the curve modifier works I guess. Should I get an art station page?
well many famous artists(blenderguru for example) use it to showcase their work online. I think it'd be a good place to showcase your work for both companies and fans
can export fbx for unity +Animation
Wow ! :O
Nice tutorial and very great tips for a blender novice like me but you speak so fast i have to pause you every 5 sec to really understand what you're doing hahaha ^^ Anyway you rule! Thanks from Paris!
You did't delete the default cube :0, You are a monster
so can we not make it animate while not changing position?
You saved me
I having problem when I rotate the parent the tracks going any direction
How to import into sfm? Without have a hard time
Just in case someone might be here that can answer it but how do you get it to work in unreal? When imported it does not rotate the tread instead a motionless tread literally moves across the y axis in unreal, I assume because we used g and moved it across the y axis in blender, anybody how to fix or get it to work in unreal?
I assume because you would need to do it with bones instead, with a vertex group with full influence for each tread. Still trying to figure this out myself, but I am pretty sure you need to do it with bones, not with the animation method shown here.
how can I apply physics to tracks for stones, hills...etc
That is way more complicated, there is a link in the description if you want a course on that. :)
Amazing and easy to follow tutorial. By the way, was that a Landkreuzer P.1000 Ratte at the end?
Yup ;)
@@Olav3D Bruh I get this was 4 years ago but are you able to link the tracks and a tank that would fit? I know it's alot to ask but I cant figure this out.
It is only moving in x axis...
If I move it or rotate it(empty cube)...
The whole thing just ruins
Great voice sir
Is it possible to move treadmill tank tracks in only one place without moving it forward or backward?
dont parent it
Hi, if you move the array object once it's attached to the curve, it'll spin around on the spot. Then, you can keyframe it so it looks like it's spinning in place. c:
@@pashthedoob I'm just wondering how it worked these trank track belts in case of Nintendo's cancelled 3D MOTHER 3 EarthBound 64 Prototype in the past since estimate circa Anno Domini of years of late 1990's to early 2000's.? For Nintendo 64. Originally intended to be planned for SNES,N64,N64DD,but perhaps Sony would help them,but both of them in the future would end up as downfallen corporate companies such as Sega. In tech demo leaked gameplay footages.
@@pashthedoob 3D low poly stuff.
What if I wanted my tank to make a turn? The tracks just separate from the curve
thats my current problem as well
click on your cube/thread link. in the object constraints, add a "copy rotation" and choose the bezier curve as target
Changing the Z location value of the circle fucks up the entire thing. Anyone got any idea why this is?
After applying the modifiers they don't move please help
Hi Olav, I parented the tank tracks to the cube when I animate Y axis no problem, but when I try to rotate the cube, the tank tracks break up, they go all over the place.
But if you turn it it flips out
did u figured it out how to solve it??
@@topdumbest6119 this method is... well lazy
ruclips.net/video/LovMyPoW6Ko/видео.html
here's a more complete tutorial on rigging, my heavy chassis tutorial actually uses it.
@@sensha5470 This is way too complicated for me lmao is there anyway to do it?
@@topdumbest6119 Did you figure it out?
were you able to fix it ?
How do I loop this for game making purpeses
Еми трябва просто да направиш Loop анимация
Any idea of how to make it working in Unity?
ı am looking for this did you solve?
Well, you made that look easy. When I grow up I want to be like Olav.
👍
Hi Olav, Hi everyone
I followed the tutorial step-by-step and when i grabbed the curve in Y direction, the curve only moved and the tracks didn't, any idea?
P.S.:
I used Blender 2.8 Beta, but when i made it using Blender 2.79 it worked very well, does anybody know why it didn't worked in 2.8, other than it is still Beta :)
Thank you very much
Are you moving the path the direction the track is facing?
@@calebjlee2685 yes
I was able to make it work in 2.8 could you send a link to your blend file?
@@calebjlee2685 Thank you for your concern,
Here is the link of my file created in Blender 2.79, when i opened it in 2.8, it didn't worked as expected.
drive.google.com/open?id=1hHCVhgk505v9AH7WhWuvcnhjhLtO6Z9c
Thanks a lot
@@Tamer_Gomaa I opened your file in both 2.79 and 2.8, and they both seemed to be working fine
Luv your videos but it didn't work for me. As soon as I added the curves modifier, my array went in all different directions. Even after I changed the Deformation Atlas still all over the place. Will have to watch someone else's Tut
Blender introduction in one Video.
it doesnt wokr anymore the circle points were increased its not them 4 lines anymore it has lods of points all around so you cant do it
there's just one problem, when i move it forward, it moves backwards.
delete blender and restart the project
@@maherabdu5358 nvm i got it
@@jazzymixel7327 then take a big step back and LITERALLY FUCK YOUR OWN FACE
@@maherabdu5358 bruh
@@jazzymixel7327 hey can i ask how you fixed it? im having the same issue
Foes this work when you export it to a game engine. Say, unity.
unfortunately no. You are moving an array of objects along a curve modifier only. When you apply the modifiers the animation doesnt work.
fly mode doesnt work
Watch my flying tutorial. Updated for 2.8.
Didnt work, does not follow the curve at all, i followed everything.
What is your problem? Maybe I can help
This doesn't work the best with realistic tanks. The curve modifier bends and deforms the geometry. Which is not how a tank tread works.
It does not work when I export it to Unity 3D. Also how can we make these track rotate without transform the whole track array? I mean I just want to simulate tank track movement.
This is not a Unity 3D tutorial though, I have no experience with that program.
@@Lewisscrivens How exactly do you do this? Sorry I'm new to rigging and animating but this won't import into unreal without literally just moving the entire object across the y axis so I desperately need an answer
