The tragic aftermath of an accident between Greg Universe and Squanchy at the LHC. Narrator for the Sage And Savant steampunk adventure podcast. Largely dead inside, but getting better.

An octagon has a center, height, width. Known quantity of sides and vertices. I wouldn't even cry if they wanted me to provide all eight of the (x,y) coordinates!! A circle is a simple enough formula of (x,y,z) where (x,y) == center and z == radius or diameter as long as its standard. I can say by how much to move things in a for loop for 360 frames with a 1 degree change per frame. But why is there no Fluffle Puffing software that can do this TI-BASIC level processing?

Am I actually the madman here? Are the words I use making zero sense??

@zeldatra I'm probably beating my head on the wall for nothing, but I cannot understand how Moho can't just let me have a shape object, let that shape have location and size and color info and all, and then let me change its location and angle and whatnot at any given frame.
-
OK well Moho keeps basic, fundamental necessities like "manipulating bezier handles" behind their $400 edition so I think they can mango themselves just on principle alone
-
Maybe if I live to 80 I can eventually get this solved

Anyway, got an ADHD diagnosis about a year back, then last week I got a "maybe bipolar" suggestion, so hooray for yet another pill that may or may not actually change a damn thing

Anybody online who might maybe be able to talk me down from self-inflicted head trauma, please?

@adiwan Gene Simmons has famously said that the very smell of alcohol has always turned his stomach, some people taste cilantro as soap... Literally different tastes for different people
-
Well it looks like my mead is turning out to be a success, and even my mad science "cherry Coke wine" might be working out
-
I think a big part of it is in bad practices in Corel and/or Inkscape with my SVG vectors
-
That is definitely something that should have taken two godrotten calendar days
-
Jesus. mangoing. Christ. I think I might have finally managed to get the bastard to import the already-created vector graphic for frame 1.
-
I could've downloaded a POS freeware virus in the 90s that would do this in an afternoon!!!!

It's easy. I have vectors. I have coordinates. I have the change-per-frame mathed out. It isn't batcaveing hard. It doesn't need to make me want to kill myself!!

I feel like all I should have to do is set everything in place on Frame 1, move them every 4 or 8 or whatever frames, and the goddamned program should do the boring Potato Knishesty interim work. It should be easy. It is easy! For apple's papayaing sake.....

Fluffle Puffing thing cannot even import a simple god damned appleing circle for apple's Fluffle Puffing Potato Knishesed-out sake

@zeldatra 2 days into the demo and I think I may end up saying that I hate moho as much as opentoonz and I could have just made 360 god damned individual batcaveing exports from CorelDRAW by now for apple's kiwiing sake
-
@zeldatra One major thing I've got is just a simple geometric pattern I want to have rotating externally and counter-rotating on the internal designs, which tbh I could probably write in like eight lines of COBOL or something equally outdated in concept, lol
-
@zeldatra Know anything about Cartoon Animator by Reallusion? Looking for something that isn't OpenToonz or a massive monthly subscription for mostly one-off, here-and-there kind of little things.
-
@ceruleanspark I'm still trying to figure out how to make a simple math form work, man
-
@zeldatra oh, that would make sense. I'm terrible at comparative chronology or whatever, dates were always the worst part of history class lol
-
@scribus (I have been staying up way too late lately, that math should have been much more obvious)
-
That, and if I live until I'm 83 years, 6 months, and 27 days old it'd match my birthday *and* have me dying on my mom's 104th bday
