I'm working on the lipsync actions. The way I work is I temporarily save the chor, actions and project to my hard drive. When I'm ready to commit, I save all the files to their proper place on the svn.

I know that we aren't saving the project file but what about the actions? Is there an area on the svn for the action files to be saved?

Thanks,
George

Hi George .. I created a new folder called ACTIONS inside the scene's folder... and put all actions ( lipsync ) on it

I figured that was the way to do it but then I looked at Ken's last shot and noticed he didn't do that. I'm just wondering if we are suppose to be embedding the actions or not?

Embed.


I don't have a lot of experience with embedding so I want to make sure I'm doing it right. Please tell me if this is correct:

Right click on the project at the top of the PWS
Choose "inbed all"

I started to do this and I got a warning about links being broken. Is this the correct way to embed?

NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

Yikes, that would be terrible!

Do nothing and Actions are already embedded. If you've already done a "Save As" (which links them), then simply crack open the Action then crack open the "File Info" and set "Embedded" to "ON."

p.s. What were we thinking when we added "Embed All"?! (It was for Product Support - those losers.)

I kind of thought this was not the way hehe. So you know, I didn't do it.
