  • Animation Loop Problem

    Posted by Ardelean Alex on October 4, 2009 at 5:10 pm

    I have created a fire using a particle generator (CC Particle World) which randomly generates the particles… I need a short animation of a fire that loops, but I can`t get the last frame to match the first… I don`t even know if it`s possible with this sort of animation… Is it?

    Any help would be apreciated 🙂

    export the animation, import it and loop it in the interpret footage dialog

    OR

    Apply time remapping to the layer.
    Extend its out point to the end of your comp.
    Reveal the time-remapping keyframes.
    Alt-click (opt-click) on one of them to set up an expression.
    Select the little triangle to reveal the expression menu, then
    under “property”, click the loop out expression:
    “loop_out(type = “cycle”, num_keyframes = 0)”.
