Posts: 24 		I have been exploring the idea to use Muvizu for a couple of different scripts I have been drafting but I was disapointed to see there was not a default pistol attachment and therefore no associated animation options. Fortunately, there are some user mod pistol options but I'm curious if anyone can recommend any particular animation combination to simulate the shooting of a handgun. I went through every option and observed a couple of pointing animations that could be used but they are not perfect by any means. I just thought I'd throw it out there to see if anyone has made any movies with shooting scenes and what was their "go to" animation to simulate the shooting of a pistol.

If you know how to model, you could take Ziggy's hand/arm prop and add a gun, which could then be keyframed to do whatever you want (but you'd have to frame the shot so that the characters existing arm was not visible at the same time as his extra gun-wielding arm)

Oh, the hoops we jump thru to actualize our scenes!
