Hiya guyz... I love Anim8or and use it for most of my morphs, but I can't zoom in close to select individual verticies (black dots). This is frustrating. Therefore, I downloaded the Amapi program and am trying to use it. Great interface, great capabilities, TERRIBLE tutorial content. Wait! Let me backstep... it has SOME WONDERFUL tutorials, but not a good help file. Does anyone else here use Amapi? I'd love to correspond with ya for advice on common problems, yet I don't see a forum here for Amapi users. Anyone out there for us?

I got it, but I haven't used it one bit. I wanted to, but I spent half an eternity trying to find at least a couple of simple tutorials on how to use it and as I didn't find any, I just gave up. I don't think I'm going to learn 3d modelling without any tutorials... :( I didn't understand anything at all... sigh

You can zoom in in anim8or click on the "eye" the button labeled "A" will move the view up-down-left-right. the button labeled "B" will zoom in and out from the center.

Cant help you, since I have the same problem. Im trying to learn Amapi. Some bits are really easy to understand, others are totally confusing. Ive been searching all over the web for tutorials for Amapi, but it seems there are only a few of them out there. If you find anything, Id really like to know.

Oh, Bless You Shadowcat! Thank you SO much! Whee! This opens up loads of possibilities! And thank YOU, Scorpio. Many of those Amapi sites are good.

You are very welcome, finally I can contribute something that will help someone, seems I continually lurk and learn;-)Now when you learn this program, please help me some more Scorpio

You're welcome, I use Anim8or quite a bit as well. Amapi seems a bit difficult, but I'll be checking out those links later. Thanks Scorpio.
