Stop Motion Helper

It won't work.
I think my stop motion helper tool is broken. I select my ragdoll, its being highlighted green, I do the first pose, record it, put it as the first frame. Then i get to the second pose, record it also and put it as the second frame. When I start to move the timeline cursor, the ragdoll isnt moving. I've unchecked every option possible in the settings, nothing happens. And if i try to load a specific scene, it wont show me a list of entities, even though there are in my game.

What's going on?

does the problem still persist if you disable all addons except for stop motion helper?

Absolutely. Tried that and still didn't work. And sometimes the ragdolls are not being highlighted green entirely in some maps. They could have their eyes highlighted. It's a very strange bug, if you ask me.

green stuff being weird is mostly a render issue, but entity still will be selected if you right click it when smh menu is up. no idea why changes aren't being saved, and you did say you tried checking and unchecking stuff like "don't animate physbones"?

I've mentioned about those settings and it still didn't work. I'm pretty sure that it's not coming from my binds. I highly doubt.

yeah doesn't seem like it. what if you try to unsubscribe from the smh and download it back? also, what is your system, maybe that somehow affects it? don't think i've heard of smh behaving like that before.

Did that also. My system is perfectly fine. I've done a little research and just found out that ragdoll's shadow is moving when I move the timeline cursor and nothing else. The ragdoll is not moving, but its shadow does. I am very confused.

ah, that's usually the thing that gets fixed by checking and unchecking the "don't animate physbones" setting, from what i've noticed.

dunno about the saving stuff not showing the saved entities. about system, i meant if it is windows, mac or something like that

Oh, it now works. That's a stupid bug. Thanks for helping me out, hopefully this weird bug will be fixed so that it won't be confusing to new users.

probably it's some issue with syncing up client-server stuff, although don't think i've experienced it on my end. well, maybe that'll be fixed after making all code less complex.
