Hi
I'm using Iclone for animating google sketchup models.
So I made an object in sketchup imported it in Iclone exchange and then imported it into Iclone studio 2.5. Now what I want to do is rotate this object around its own axis.
I found out how to rotate requisits and it works fine but when I rotate this object it rotates around a certain point (although I don't know where/what this point is).
What I want to do is to make this object rotate around its own axis. Is there a way to do this?
-Tim

Hi Tim,
can you be more specific? is it a car, a plane, train, spaceship?
as far as rotation pivots, this is the center of the world in Exchange, when you export your object into Iclone. So if you want to rotate a tire of a car for example, you have to separate the tire from the car of that it can have its own pivot point. There is a tutorial on this :

this should help you see what I mean.

-TimDid you make sure to select Align To Center before exporting to iClone?
