All Controllers to keyframes?

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello World, 

I'm doing some animation for the first time and my human rig has about 42 (the meaning of life) controllers. i think it would be a hassle if i have to key every controller one at a time so i just want to know if it wont bother the program if i select all of the controllers and set them to the desired frames for every keyframe?

Hey @Anonymous

Most animators actually do create a MEL script thats called a "KEY ALL" button... I will attach a Youtube video that will guide you step to step on how to do so! (:

Okay that makes me feel so much better about it and thank you for the link. The channel doesn't have the link to the script so ill search for it.

Hey @Anonymous

Its not actually a script for it, in the video he opens up the "script editor", because each "KEY ALL" mel script will be different due to every character rig has a different naming convention and hierarchy. If you follow along you will see he opens the script editor and then selects a specific line of code once he selects all the controls to then make it a "mel script" of his own! (:
