Pivot: Not the shitty stickfigure animator you always knew - Games

I would post another one but i don't think people would like it.

I haven't used this in years. Those animations are awesome but you'd expect the creators of them to be using Flash instead.

I used to do this years ago, it's decent but limited and you're better off using Flash. I'll see if I can find my shitty old video for shits and giggles. [editline]2nd November 2010[/editline] OK scratch that finding a video by searching "Stick person fights" is not easy

[IMG]http://i938.photobucket.com/albums/ad221/AverageFail/The%20Landfill/VeryBadMiniZombie.gif[/IMG] I made this around last year. It's small because I used it as an avatar on some dead pivot forum. (The only figure I made was the guy holding the gun. Keep in mind I don't know shit about guns.)

Gonna mess with this. Seems good.

[QUOTE=coolity;25823184]Gonna mess with this. Seems good.[/QUOTE] Do it.. I dare you.

oh man, I remember messing around so much with this as a kid.

I'll give it a try :buddy: [editline]3rd November 2010[/editline] which one do you guys recommend me to download

[QUOTE=w0lfeh;25826950]I'll give it a try :buddy: [editline]3rd November 2010[/editline] which one do you guys recommend me to download[/QUOTE] i like the older one personally, it has a better interface imo. only use the newer one if you want to use sprites

I will show my animations later.

HNNNNNNG Nostalgia

[QUOTE=pedroion;25800144]Pivot is actually very refined if you know how to use it properly. I had a friend of mine that made an amazing animation, 43 minutes long. His father sold his computer without letting him know, before he could upload it. :frown: I should also mention that he took 13 months to make it.[/QUOTE] That's the problem really. Like many of the programs that are aimed towards a younger crowd because of its more simpler design, it can still be used to make high quality things but it would take you a lot longer than with proffessional quality software. (For example, GameMaker which was used on such classics as Iji, Karoshi, Battleships Forever, Shotgun FunFun, Garden Gnome Carnage, etc,)

Ah the memories. I remember posting on the old shitty MSN message boards about the game all the time. I remember when Darkdemon.org was just starting up.

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMuFL7Vj4HM[/media] i made this - got way more popular than i expected. [editline]3rd November 2010[/editline] i also made this: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epmOpfmyCqI[/media] that was some time ago.

This was the final project for Junior High I did with my friend. [URL="http://youtu.be/fU47-aHt-v4"][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fU47-aHt-v4[/media] [/URL]

Does Pivot have perspective now? I mean shortening limbs to make it look angled towards the camera?

[QUOTE=Talishmar;25856386]Does Pivot have perspective now? I mean shortening limbs to make it look angled towards the camera?[/QUOTE] Nope, it does not.

I remember this program. I only could do simple animations so I better learn with my imagination.

I used to animate when I was younger, mainly using Flash, but I also used Pivot, and I got in contact with Jon and Omegabert, which I believe his nickname was at the time. It was my golden years!

I got 2000+ subscribers because of Pivot. Deleted the videos though as they were from almost a decade ago.

[url=http://www.stykz.net/][b]Stykz[/b][/url] is so much better, more people should know about it, much more veratile stick editing than pivot, and it has AA.

I'll ignore the shitty name and actually try it out. It looks decent, of course I have no use for such a tool.

[QUOTE=Edthefirst;25801022]Talent does not substitute skill. A person may be talented with a pencil, but he can not substitute a master sketch artist. The point is, even if you apparently "suck", if you have the patience then you will learn. To be honest, the "I lack talent" excuse is pretty shitty.[/QUOTE] I lack the time to learn shit. That better? [QUOTE=rathat;25889866][img_thumb]http://www.gifbin.com/bin/082010/1280829115_stick-horse-running-fail.gif[/img_thumb][/QUOTE] ah gaev u na atistac!
