How about XNALara Animation Contest??

So, we had modding contests, render contests, how about animation contests!

I think TRF had only one animation contest back in 2009, but with the Animation tool added to XPS, I think it would be much easier to do animations now! :D

The rules would be that animation must not be shorter than a minute, and that you actually put some effort into it!

You could do any kind of animation, like a sketch, an epic fight, or even a music video!

But I am not sure if anyone will be up for it. :?

I guess the deadline could be about a month or month and half, since it's not easy making animations lol.

So, how about it? :D

I might be down depending on the time frame since I've done animations before. I think it'd be a lot of work to do that much of animation. I'd probably do something simple / avatar related because even that takes aaaaaa lot of time. Curious if anyone else is interested too. I have a few ideas for projects down the road as it is.

I actually don't know.

In regular XNALara you just do something like stop-motion.

In XNPS you have the animation option which saves you some time but I never used it. :?

XPS highly simplifies animation at least so you can view each pose frame by frame.

XNALara animation is both painful and time consuming because it requires good organization / manually loading of each frame's pose. :P
