Reversing vertex animation
18 July 2017 09:09
Hi,
Is it possible to play baked vertex animation in reverse. I know that you can reverse NLA strips, but baked animation is not showing up in the NLA editor (even with "Allow NLA" option). Is it possible in the editor/code somehow?

Blender has the option but it appears that the Blend4Web engine does not support it. In the NLA editor, you can hit the N key to open the side panel. There is a checkbox there that reverses the NLA when played in Blender. However when exported, it plays forward.

Hi,
if you refer to Shape Key you can do with the logical node Apply Shape Key, subtracting values without doing bake.

Unfortunately none of yours advices apply to me. I do not use Shape Key's. I'm using Curve Modifier with curves that are animated via hooks on handles - that's why I'm baking vertex animation

Hi, could not you do it by duplicating all the key frames and scaling them to (-1) before making the bake?

Reply to post of user JuaniYes, I think I can do it, but baked vetex animation weighs a lot and I need animation in both directions. My app is already big and I'm trying to save every kB.
