THIS, right here ladies and gentleman, boys and girls, dogs and kittens.. THIS is how a tutorial is done... told in a manner that is well paced, not assuming of our abilities and broken down in a cohesive, understandable and logical way of explaining things.... thank you MrWooshie, I have subbed with gladness and joy for finding you... please keep up the good work
@@havelthesnacc8753 Thanks, I'm really stuck on logic right now its overwelming me and I cant seem to find good tutorials that go in depth. My sculpting has improved a bit but I still cant even sculpt a hand only trees and mountains.
Kaneki I feel ya man I’m on the same boat! Maybe when the online gets added we could help eachother! Cause I honestly am having trouble making simple cutscenes
I dropped off of Dreams about three days ago because I just couldn’t figure out how to do a custom run, and decided to wait for an actual tutorial. I didn’t expect to get one this great so soon! Thank you so much for this, you pretty much saved my life.
The best known tutorial maker, NeontheCoder, doesn't make tutorials that are comprehensible enough. Moreover, his tutorials are almost always complicated because he doesn't tell about more universal stuff but about how he achived his predetermined goals. So, MrWooshie is one of the best.
Man... You know those "Star Trek: The Next Generation" scenes where they have to figure out some crazy work-around using hardware & software hacks to a computer system's Hysenberg Coupler and then re-calibrating the bio-magnetic containment field coil multipliers before re-routing it through the ODN relays to save the day? I feel like that... But it sure is worth it! :)
Ah, wow! This is PERFECT for what I was looking for! No more floppy limbs! Perfect animations. Thank you so much for this :D Your teaching style is excellent by the way. Best I've come across for Dreams.
I’m really thankful for these videos you are starting to make. Steps are quite easy to follow but I have a small critique of it’s ok with you. When it comes to the animation itself, the way you present it can be very overwhelming. The run for example, you give us a little advice on hot to move the limbs and assure that we will do a good job but then you move on you your next stage and that timeline is packed with tweaks and small animations by limb. What I was truly interested is the part you omit, which is how did you build that timeline.
My apologies. The short version is that I created my animation through puppet mirroring and deanimating half the puppet at a time. I figured this wouldn't be the easiest to explain, because what I did was overcomplicated for what can easily be simplified. Each pose can be made as a full single keyframe, instead of breaking it up as I had done, that can be blended from one pose to the next. It's best to have the final pose be the exact same as the first pose to create a perfect loop. I also omitted any full on animation tutorial as there are amazing, easy to follow ones already on TH-cam :)
This has is by far the best Dreams tutorial I've seen! So informative... learning from the logic in this video, I also know how to make an idle animation now.
Making a separate timeline for each part of the body - is genius! I didn't even think it would work properly this way . After a long animation I was exhausted, because these balls that shows recording animation prints covered the entire character and it was very difficult to see the process through them, especially any small elements like fingers, and I did not know how to disable it.
The thing that i like the most is the fact that some of the logic its from littlebiplanet,and me,as a logic expert,will find this pretty easy,thanks sumo ❤
Nice vid. No more than 10min, clear voice, the video title is true to tutorial Future tips: Pretend viewers are new to vid or won't go to previous vid so reclarify terms and tools without saying "if you forgot go check my other vid" Have playlist for animation, puppet, sculpt etc to make it easier to find old vids
Wow, very cool. Do you do you voice work while playing or later in editing? The presentation is very fluent and well done. When you chose to use a keyframe just to deactivate the other animation, I wanted to suggest that a not gate on the intended animation could do the same trick, probably easier. But then you used the same keyframe to adjust the runspeed, so it really was useful as a one on all solution for all further adjustments. Really nice to watch.
Thanks! For the video I play through first and add the V.O. during editing so I can retake the lines without having to repeat the actions within the game :)
Love the tutorials soo far. And how theyre straight to the point without the usual youtube fluff.. Gotta ask is there any reason you broke up the limbs into seperate key frames? Does this help or is this an ocd thing? Ive run into issues where limbs get splayed out all over the show just asking cause if the seperate keyframe per limb helps im going that way?
For me it was just easier to break it up to make adjustments. I didn't go into it as I wanted to keep the video as short as possible, but basically I would animate a leg while having puppet mirror on, then make a clone and have the two duplicate animations placed on the big main timeline. I could then go into each keyframe and deanimate the leg that shouldn't be moving. So for one leg animation I would deactivate the left leg, and for the other I would deactivate the right. After this I would just move one set of keyframes around to have the legs move opposite of one another. The only reason I did this was because I wanted both arms and legs to move the exact same way forwards and backwards. This way was just similar to how I had learned some basic animation back in school :)
I'm so happy that I found your channel and yes I did subscribe. Thank you for your help in making Dream's funnier to play because a lot of this isn't explained very well by Media Molecule. I really appreciate all you're doing so I just wanted to let you know that I will keep watching and sharing your video's with as many people as I possibly can. 👍💯👍
I got a bit lost in this part too, you've fragmented the animation of each body part in different time lines. It simplify the animation, but for me it's an advanced technique 😅
Thank Reddit for this extremely helpful channel. Subscribeddd P.S- please make a tutorial on animating faces. I would love you forever! Thanks again for this wonderful gem
You're great in logic. However, I'm sorry to say that your videos are far from being to the point and practical. It'd be nice if you'd also treat the subjects in a more precise and generic/universal manner. I think your videos are longer than necessary. They need to convey more practical info in a shorter time.
I'm incredibly anal about my run animations in games. Even some of the biggest devs (that means you, Nintendo) don't impress me but the default Dreams runs/walks are so good I doubt I'll ever change it. I don't mean to criticize the video. It's great and I totally see why people might want to use their own but damn MM got it on lock!
You're making a great job! Amazing tutorial, easy to understand directly to the point! Your videos should be in the game togheter with the other master class
Yay I was waiting for this vid! I had ask you on reddit if you could do a video and you delivered, great job! This is really helping me and I look forward to more videos.
Your Tutorial is still in Use! And i also see, you explain what u do in a VERY GOOD WAY! Did u have more of this? I know its 1 Year old stuff but still working proper!!
I’m gonna wait till the ps5 will come out so I can buy it. I’ll have the advantage of playing with both ps4 and 5 games, including Dreams :D. I really want this game so bad though
i wish this was in german language, too. What i get is awesome! You explain this very well and focused right on the Logic - what i didnt understand (as German my english isnt that good to understand all what u mean/say) Mostly i understand, but the logic of the microchip and puppetlogic is very hard for me to learn by myself. So i asking to everybody reading this: if u know german howto`s pls give me a link or post it here in the comments! THANK U ALL! The German Howto`s from MN i do already. Its not helping for all but for starting. I did start 3 Weeks ago. Best Game for decades!
If only dreams tutorials were this concise great job bro. Do you think you could go through an idol to running. Then maybe some combo attacks?? If not thanks anyway dude
@@scooper7428 Its done slowly to explain. It's not too hard or slow when you get the hang of it. Though it still is to me and im not good at animating.
Hey, I just wanted to ask if it would be possible for you to make a video on how you created the necessary poses. I'm finding it quite difficult to control and move the parts ever so slightly and effortlessly as u did in the video.
I don't know if you know but the L2 is pressure sensitive(recently discovered this smh) So the softer the press while holding the slower it moves. Worked/working wonders for me in posing the character
Great tutorial. Thanks! This is helpful because I am trying to make a quadrapedal character and this is the only other I have seen. Is it possible to create a puppet from scratch? I'm having a difficult time tweaking the puppet into a 4 legged stance. And when I do, the animations totally break.
MrWooshie No. I'm pretty new to this and haven't figured out the animations logics yet. I've tried exploring the circuits in the puppets but am unable to find the default animation. The only thing I can find is the range of the arms during walking. And by break I mean it just goes limp and doesn't move.
Hmm strangely I'm getting partial animations when the left stick is held down slightly. NVM just realized the left trigger with signal manipulator can also be applied to my problem. Great tutorial!
Can we also create allies in our games? So we can make medieval games with an army or can we only create up to 4 players and enemies but no allies who help you in the battle? And if we can, can we give them orders like following us??
Why not just connect a not gate to the walking animation, which makes it so that it deactivates the very moment you start running? Thats how i'd do it.
I see you used a deluxe puppet. How were u able to make his limbs so small? When i tried shrinking /stretching them to make a smaller character the characters preset animations like walk /run don't work any longer.
You'd think the game would have a tutorial for this very specific scenario consider most people will want to know how to do this once they made a character and their animation don't look exactly right.
Instead of the key frame you used to deactivate the first And gate couldn't you have just connected the second And gate into a not gate to the first And gate? Not allowing the first animation to activate because the second one is.
I decided to use a keyframe for it's ability to have multiple uses within one gadget. With that single keyframe I was able to turn off the first run as well as alter the puppet's speed :)
I have a question mrwooshie and idk if you can answer it. I'm 100% new and confused at this logic and im working on a melee type character. I have my 1st animated punch keyframe but I want to make others and chain them into a left hook, right hook, kick combo. But im struggling as to how to setup a square button combo chain without all the animations going at the same time. If you can spare a tip or two it'll be appreciative! Thank you

It's awesome yet, I didn't learn anything cuz I need to learn the basics in the game :) Animation is a game of it's own, heck, for most it's a career.
The tutorial is great but, I still dont understand a thing, lol.

didnt knew it was such a chore to learn it, better learn professional tools and get some profit out of it.
Ive seen a lot of tutorials for dreams online, yours is the first that truly explains what is going on. Thank you, Please keep them coming
Best Dreams tutorial I’ve seen yet! A tutorial on how to throw and catch a ball with the puppet would be awesome! Just Subbed
I made one in an animation...search for a "lighthouse at night" it's remixable

The best dreams tutorials I have seen so far. Your instructions are clear and make sense.
Great video. Subscribed. looking forward to more tutorials on the future, and I can't wait to see what this game creates
It’s like a more complicated yet better little big planet, it makes me happy that mm decided to carry its legacy
Honestly I need this, I've tried to find models for me to reanimate but didn't properly know how, this helped me A TON

mind blown

Glad you liked it :)
What exactly is breaking? Did you delete the default animations and disable the procedural animations as well?
MrWooshie No. I'm pretty new to this and haven't figured out the animations logics yet. I've tried exploring the circuits in the puppets but am unable to find the default animation. The only thing I can find is the range of the arms during walking.
And by break I mean it just goes limp and doesn't move.
Nice pun @4:07
This is quality content! Thank you so much!
Great job by you man! Sub 👍
You can see the little big planet in this game, mm really loves giving the player the tools to be creative
Rather than using the key frame to turn off the first animation, could you not use an OR Gate?
I'm sure you could, I just used the keyframe because I was already going to use it to change the 2nd run speed. The less gadgets, the better :)
Either way it was a really good tutorial and I'm looking forward to seeing more from you 😁
I made a running animation but it collides with the floor so one of the legs stop moving
