Effect House Info Dump
15 May 26 (4d ago)
- For the TikTok platform. Same as Spark for Facebook Meta, although Spark is already deprecated
- Importing your own assets? Somewhat not straightforward. In the main menu but on the Assets Panel (Not to be confused with the Asset Library))
- The software works but not entirely polished. For example, if I hit tab, it is supposed to be toggle between 3D and 2D view but it just cycles to transform attributes after toggling the view. WTF
- When I want to edit a number parameter on UI, I have to select all to edit the whole value. By default, it matters where you click it, the edit indicator where it is placed. What other 3D software does this?
- Bug on Dynamic Chain? In the demonstration you can stack on many dynamic chains. But currently, it only the top most parent dynamic chain is being used. I can't perform the googly eyes on my snake.
- There are several templates to start and just modify the assets. You can check the sample current assets being used at: C:\Users\BT\AppData\Roaming\EffectHouse\Instances\Instance1\ProjectCreatedTmp\CreatedFromTemplate\b62569bd-d414-0a7c-0570-180ca47fcd18\Expressive Ears\Assets\ExpressiveEars_Assets\Models
- Nice to check your work on a phone. Click
Preview in Tiktok. Wait for a while, don't move! and you get a QR to scan in your phone. - Nice thing that effect house already recognize component/multi-sub material selection
- And I believe you can also update your asset once it is imported. You need select it in the Assets Panel and in the inspector, there is a "Replace Asset" option. A must especially if you already have set-up on your project
- There is a scripting (typescript language) but haven't had success since there is not much example. Even multiple LLM's fail to provide a simple script
- Visual scripting exist but uhm, yea still a bit convoluted.
Pending
- Snake Aim
- Expression recognization. So if I smile, the snake smile or something
- Stacking random animation with the dynamics one?
