| | | | Will the preset work with cs3? I put it in the preset folder but it didnt come up in the program. | | | | |
| | | | i dont understand something. is there a way that when the camera angle changes the lightsaber blade does not get all messed up when u move it to fit on the lighsaber. because when i did that, the previous shot at the end the lightsaber animates and moves to fit the next shot. idk if thats descriptive enough. | | | | |
