  Create a linear loop that gradually gets faster?

  Posted by Tim Fisher on January 4, 2013 at 8:18 am

  So I have these metaballs moving around in cinema 4D, and it is set to linearly loop over 90 frames. However what if I wanted to make each loop faster and faster?

  Basically I want to have about 3 loops where the last two loops are exponentially faster than the previous.

  Thank you in advance, sorry if this is a confusing question or I didn’t explain it well enough.

  how are they travelling? If it’s along a spline it’s probably easiest to do it in the fCurve manager
  if it’s P.XYZ keyframes you could use fCurves or Motion Clips or Functions/Move/Scale in the Timeline or a Time Track but MotionClips would be easier if you have them (depends on version)

  I just have them moving around in x/y/z space. I’ll have to do some research on motion clips.

  I kind of want to make it look like there is a sphere that is trying to break out of another sphere by using the metaball look. By making it faster and faster I could have it explode or something like that at the end.
