Ok -
I’ve been researching my pants off and it has come to my attention the only possible place to get any help is here…lol…like it took me that long haha? Should have come here first.
I am designing a solar system model.
Not neccesarily our planets, but ones of my picking etc.
I need them to rotate around a central object (i.e. the sun)
Now, when I click on one of the planets I want to have it freeze the planet or stop its motion, then zoom in on it - meanwhile the rest of the planets continue in their orbits. Then a movie is launched…for that area’s content.
All the while maintaining the perception of 3d.
I’ve found some interesting depth tutorials, but nothing like this anywhere… I have my ideas and I’ve tried a few, but I’m not getting the effect I’m after.
Any ideas/help/code?
You know I had thought about using motion guides, then having them planet’s zoom, size, and alpha adjust based on position along that guide, but then to zoom up in on the planet while its doing that, and to stop it…
some array stuff has been tried as well.
just seems like my logistics are off.
Thank you for any help rendered.
