Hello all. I made the production file for a short Carrara animation I did available on ShareCG. I figured a few things could be learnt by taking it apart. Afterall, Carrara animation isn't rocket science. 😉
Works with 6.2 pro.

Oh yeah, there's two minor bugs I've noticed. One has to do with where visibility is toggled in the heirarchy, and another may be a slight bump along a path. But I'll leave those to be figured out as part of the learning process.

That's the finished animation, so you don't have to render it to see what it does. The .car file only has the rocket scene. The music and title were added later when I stitched the rendered frames together with VirtualDub.
