Thanks a lot! A short tutorial like this works so much better than text based explanation from a teacher

Thanks a lot! This is the greatest tutorial I've ever seen!

Super helpful, needed to make a fly through for a final project and this was perfect.

I am running a product design company, I have never seen such a great job

Thank you so very very much! Really helped me a ton! I've been stuck for hours and hours trying to figure this out :D

thanks for making this, you explained everything i needed in a very clear fashion. bless you!

Excellent! Thank you for the video

AWESOME! subscribed!

By the way You can use the camera view for walk through the assembly and to edit the part from its interior. Just create a camera with necessary setup, switch off "lock camera" button, and you can switch to the camera view at any moment from the view-display-camera view to edit assy or part

Although it's an old video of the process, it still works for current versions!!

Very good, thanks

NICE BRO....THANKS FROM INDIA.

Thanks for you tutorial

TQ....was looking high and low for this.

Thank you very much sir. I really wanted and fatigued of searching of that how to create camera view animation video. This videos 05:28 to 5:50 section is really helped me and i owe to you.👍❤and also guys, disable key creation off setup 1:28 is most important to lock the camera. I stucked there couple of hours. 😕

Wow, very informative video! Thanks so much! My question to you, when I go to add a camera, I see lights, direction, and scenes, but when I expand the folder, I only have directional 1,2 and 3 and Ambient. I have no option to "Add" a camera... am I missing some part of the software?

Hi, Thanks for the tutorial. I have created a camera path in a separate sketch. When I jump into the camera settings SW shows there is a sketch, but it does not show the sketch itself. Therefore I cannot select it for my camera to follow. Any ideas on why it disappears as soon as I go into the camera settings?

Excelente gracias !

Is there a way to save that animation in camera perspective? I cannot see that option when saving an animation, I only see SolidWorks view mode.

Very good primer for animator! You also sound a little like Bill Murray.

Very nice tutorail. But I miss only one thing: When you want to save .avi, the view changes to random position and not camera view (you can see this when he clicks on ''Save animation'' at 06:27 To fix this problem you have to select Key point at ''Orientation and Camer View'' row (that is above of ''Lights, Cameras and Scene'' row), right click on key point and change it to camera vew. Sorry for my bad english

Thanks man!

Thank you

Wish you have tutorial for latest version of solidworks!

Thanks dewd!

just thank you.

@SJester81 and I'm stuggling with the same problem. My deadline is in one week though, but I've tried to solve it for a couple of weeks too. I'd like to change between different cameras during the animation, but it doesn't seem like it's possible. To make it use one of the camera views, you may right-click on the camera and select "camera view" AFTER you've started the rendering process. The first frame that's rendered will be wrong though...

very nice :)

can anyone give me a hand? i want to export the video from the point of view of the camera but i cant, i have already activated camera views but i get the video from the normal point of view

if I save this camera path in the animation, you get the view of the camera? And if I let the camera fixed?

thanks!

Hi Eliuth... thanks for sharing this video with us much appreciated, however l have one issue... my camera does not follow my sketch path and its frustrating me because lve watched your video over and over and followed instructions step by step, but still my camera does not follow the path that was sketched.. What am l doing wrong??? Please help thanks in advance.

Thanks

ok i think i got it.. but why turn off key creation? BTW your the only person one the internet that explains this Thanks!

It took me awhile but I got it to do some basic maneuvers. SW2012

спасибо. ваш урок помог мне начать.

helo..i wanna ask u something,why in my solidworks does'nt appear the 'Lights Cameras and Scenes' ...i just have the Sensors,Annotations...the 'Light Cameras and Scenes didnt...help me..

why disable view key creation?> What if you have other things going on in the animation at same time is that ok? also when i select on spline it selects whole spline not one end what to do? thanks great info.

Thanks!! I solve problema

cheers man :)

I have a problem: After I complete the sketch of the path, it is then not highlighted on the piece, therefore I cannot select it during the setting of camera parameters as a path to follow... How comes?

I am unable to save avi video from camera view every time i go to save video , ir convert the view from camera to front view pls help me

hi, if I save the video the saved video is not with the camera walk-trough view. How is this possible

muito bom...

I love the video, however, I am using Solidworks, 2006. I cannot find the motion study tab. What would I do in tis case. Look forward to hearing from you so I can try this process out. Regards Con

cheers man

How do i make it save the video in camera view? Everytime i change it and save it it just has a the starting view for the whole video. p.s great tutorial!

The sketch isn't seen and I can not select it for the camera position in SW2012.

Your Assembly is rendered, how do you render before taking the walk through video?

what i mean is the camera is not snapping to the spline

M having some problem. Camera automatically rolls while traveling through a path. M tired of finding, wats causing it to rotate it undesirably.Dear sir, kindly tell wts wrong with my procedure.

Can i make the 3D?

I missed a step somewhere... I see the camera POV but when I hit play, it jumps out to an iso overview and only shows the camera moving through the path.. Any ideas? Great video thanks! Subscribed!

@mvoorhis ...and I'm struggling with the same problem. I fixed it once, accidentally. And deadline is tonight...

that's good

You sound like Chris Pratt btw

@pooface999 i'v got the same problem did you figure it out?

No mention of what if timeline does not appear, but the motion study tree on the left does. Typicial SW demo with missing information - worthless.

as I noticed a lot of people had problem with this, so please give me or anybody else who did an explanation, so the others can see the comment while checking this video

I am using SW 2014 and I am trying to create a fly-through. I followed your video and I have encountered a problem. When I chose the Top Plane to set my spline, the plane always sets up below the assembly. I try to raise it up to the middle of the assembly, but it will not budge. I cannot move the assembly, so I am at a loss as to what to do. Please help, if you can as I can find NOTHING from SW on this. Thanks

you have to close your sketch
