Talk:Blender 3D: Noob to Pro/Flying Through A Canyon

I've gone through and made some grammatical and spelling fixes, as well as clarifying several points and integrating several users additions into the text. It is now entirely followable and applicable to 2.49b. It still remains unfinished at the bottom with the water bit. Next steps to improve it could be to add some illustrative pictures and finish the bottom bit or simply delete that section. --WithAlligators (talk) 23:16, 2 March 2010 (UTC)

This is a decent tutorial, but it has so many spelling and gramatical errors that it is difficult to follow. I suggest updating it.

Tosnic says: I really do not understand one thing of the last three points under "creating and working a path" which write: "Go back to the animation screen. Change the End Frame to 250. Now, on the right hand side, with the path selected, select the IPO type Path on the screen.  We need to make the speed last all 250 frames. While in the IPO Editor view, hit K, or go to View -> Show Keys. Select the last key. It should be at frame 100 already. Simply move it over 150 frames with Grab (g) and Ctrl Playback your animation to enjoy it" The bold text is especially cryptic to me. Where can I select the "IPO type Path"?

Cryptic this is. Once again Transcendant on #blender@freenode cleared this one up for me - in the IPO Editor Window change the dropdown box on the bottom right from "Object" to "Path". You will now see the 'Speed' component of the animation.

I noticed one user had mentioned that a clouds texture worked well for this tutorial as well, I tried it out and after playing around with it a little, I found that it also makes excellent landscapes! How about I totally rewrite this tutorial as how to make a landscape? --JamesNZ (discuss • contribs) 09:03, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
