So of you may remember this:

I'm making another one, not a D-Day, it's a zombie movie. And it looks pretty good so far.

10 FPS this time, not 3.75! It looks a lot smoother.

I'll keep you posted on progress.

Are you too lazy to make an animation with higher FPS? 20 frames isn't that hard (and believe me I do know what I'm saying).
Nice effort though. Don't stop animating and do not listen to such "critics" like me :)

Fine then. 20 FPS is actually hard to get on a windows XP with 256 MB of RAM (Yes, it's slow). I can't install Sony Vegas as the computer doesn't meet the system requirements. So I use Windows movie maker. Which in a word, is shithouse. It can only play frames at a maximum of 10 per second. So slacken off, OK?

Hundkeex, I've seen that one it's very good. I will try to make it better, ok? Besides, my camera sucks as well...

you can't just make each frame 1/20 of a second?

But if the movements are very spread out then the animation will look too fast.

Smooth stop-frame animations take a long time but are ultimately worth it if well thought out.

GL!

10 FPS would look good! But zombie style is not cool in my eyes.

Zombie-Style. Well I don't know what else to make, if you want me to make a different animation, ideas are really appreciated. I would like to do something with a bit of shooting, though, I was thinking maybe a car chase at some point.

10 FPS works fine, I just made a short film of it. It looks fine, but you are right, Mangled*, I'll have to make the frames closer. It should be cool.
