Before you say anything, please read the whole post. TL;DR at bottom. If anything is filtered out its Filter fault.
-=INTRODUCTION=-
You see that your favorite ROBLOX animation is choppy (not all) and you want it to be smooth. Or you want to create a smooth one but don't have "th#####me to learn Blender and other animating/modeling studios.
-=IDEA=-
I would like to propose an idea which ROBLOX will add an animation studio along with Studio to ROBLOX. Anybody can animate ROBLOX animations and don't need knowledge of 3D-modeling programs and animation/editing programs, which includes people similar to me.
-=HOW IT WORKS=-
#"the" frames/frame counter would be on "the" bottom. controls/options would be on "sides" and objects and File tabs would be on ze top of "the" program. Animation would be in "the" middle. On the "Objects" tab, it would consist of:
-NPCS
-Parts and Materials
-Toolbox (otherwise known as free models)
T####ayout for "Toolbox" and "Parts and Materials" would be similar to ROBLOX Studio. However, th###NPCs" layout would be different.
First a window would appear on what package,color,shirt/pant texture on each NPC part .Or the user would enter in the player ID of a player and the NPC would show up. ### body would look similar to "the" avatar color selection, with "the" texture or package if selected. Then th"e"user can add 3 accessories onto their NPC, and then the user would insert their NPC and Voila! NPC created. (ID of player can be submitted to get a player's model in a little player search bar)
-=ANIMATION=-
The default scene would be the "Starting Place" (From ROBLOX) Players can edit what time it is, edit the terrain, add stuff etc. There would be a little floating camera which would serve the purpose as the camera angle seen when the video is published. ### frame counter and frame viewer would be on "the" bottom. frame counter would show number of frames and a slider to select ### frame. NPC's will be in R15 and will have a slight bend at the joints in the R15 player body. All of the body parts are connected, ex. when rotating ##### ##### ##### head and arms would stay with it too. (BTW same rotate tool and move tool as in Studio would be in here). When a player moves a NPC part they can click "Save frame" or press "F". Then, a copy of the previous frame would be there, except all "the" objects would be transparent. Ex. An NPC is jumping in air frame, but "the#####vious prev frame (ex. taking off) would show transparent.
-=EFFECTS=-
Particle effects can be added in. When selecting a particle effect, you would have to set a timer to show how long the particle effect would occur."The" user could select an object, and put one of the 3 effects
- Explode, where the object would explode on a certain frame (parameters available for this)
- Set on fire (burn, the object would turn rusted brown)
- Ragdoll (Only applies to NPCs, and will count as an animation when falling)
Sounds could also be placed. Object/animation effects could be placed including
-Speed (object will look like it is zooming by when moved)
-Flash ( object will flash (colorable) ex. Crowd in a sports game)
-Shake (animation would shake around vigorously)
- Color (ex.Sepia)
-Slow motion (animation would display the animation 0.25x slower (modifiable)
- Text
-Decal
Effects can be user-made.
-=PUBLISHING=-
There would be a separate section for animations on the front page. Remember, the animation would only be viewed by the animation camera. Animations can cost R$. You might think "They can be bad animations and be copied/put on YT!". Animations would have to be seen by mods first before they can go on the front page. If an animation cost R$, they cannot be exited out of. Animations that don't will get a little watermark on the bottom right which says "Made with Animation Studio" Ctrl Alt Delete won't work. You can pause/play the animation. Once animations are published, they cannot be edited and are copylocked.
-=CONCLUSION/ TL;DR=-
This idea would help quality ROBLOX animations be widely variable without requirement of knowledge of complicated programs. Animation studio would be designed for NPCS.a GUI would be user-friendly, and would consist of a wide variety of ways to create a anim. They would have to be approved first, and cannot be copied. Effects would be available.
Overall, this would help ROBLOX gain more players, as many cannot make games, but can make animations. This way, ROBLOX can power imagination.
