I'm on windows 7, downloaded the program. It starts up nice, cam works and everything. Then, when I click the first frame: (helium frog animator) "i cannot open the .avi file for playback" I can only press "ok" and then i get: "Helium frog error code 04.13" And my only option is, to "just quit". I tried running it in windows XP modus... nothing! On an older computer it works fine! - T.

Once unzipped and saved to the hard drive this program worked well and we look forward to making some animations with it. Thank you for your hard work and making it available at no charge! - Landis Sat, 23 Jun 2012 16:55:39 +0100 http://www.animateclay.com/index.php/articles/72-free-downloads/130-helium-frog-animator-free-stop-motion-capture-software#comment-494 1) Choosing skin.....This is because you did not unzip the file correctly. You need to learn how to use Winzip. You are unzipping just one file , not the whole directory. 2) Stupid Frogs......Same as above. You need to download the file, not run it. This is explained in the documentation on the website. 3)Error code 2.09. The program has difficulty accessing the disk. You may have another program accessing the directory, an extremely slow computer or running the software over a network drive. 4)Canon EOS 550D. It doesn't work as this camera can only stream video to Canon software. You are best sticking with a webcam. - Martin Price Thu, 15 Sep 2011 02:13:59 +0100 http://www.animateclay.com/index.php/articles/72-free-downloads/130-helium-frog-animator-free-stop-motion-capture-software#comment-491 Hey Jen, that's a question that you would be best to direct at the official Helium Frog web site here: http://www.heliumfrog.net63.net/heliumfrogindex.html or e-mail Martin direct here: martinprice2112@hotmail.co.uk He's the guy who wrote the code. Each camera is different, let him know what type of camera you're using, your operating system and hopefully he can help. - Marc Spess Sat, 03 Sep 2011 21:44:39 +0100 http://www.animateclay.com/index.php/articles/72-free-downloads/130-helium-frog-animator-free-stop-motion-capture-software#comment-490 after taking a few pictures I keep getting the Error Code 2.09 capture routine problem and I have to quit the application. How can I fix this? - Jen Sat, 03 Sep 2011 05:51:32 +0100 http://www.animateclay.com/index.php/articles/72-free-downloads/130-helium-frog-animator-free-stop-motion-capture-software#comment-469 Does anyone know if this program works with Canon Eos 550D? Thanks...S - Sophia Soderqvist Tue, 09 Aug 2011 03:34:11 +0100 http://www.animateclay.com/index.php/articles/72-free-downloads/130-helium-frog-animator-free-stop-motion-capture-software#comment-441 :D Really cool tool Martin! Thanks for all your efforts! My 14 yr old son and I had such fun creating a video of a haunted house complete with ghosts (salt & pepper shakers) and surfers in a combi coming along and killing the ghosts with a rock! Awesome! In response to Ian M who couldn't start the program because he couldn't choose a skin - same thing happened to me when I moved the exe file from its original download location to my desktop (thought it would create a shortcut) but as soon as I moved it back with all its other downloded files it was fine. - Des Osborn Sat, 02 Jul 2011 14:56:11 +0100 http://www.animateclay.com/index.php/articles/72-free-downloads/130-helium-frog-animator-free-stop-motion-capture-software#comment-437 I downloaded the program and when I clicked "download now" it said open or save. As usual, I wanted to run it, but there was no option for run. So I opened the file and got pictures of stupid frogs. WHAT DID I DO WRONG? - Yarddy Jaramillo Wed, 29 Jun 2011 02:48:46 +0100 http://www.animateclay.com/index.php/articles/72-free-downloads/130-helium-frog-animator-free-stop-motion-capture-software#comment-432 i wont let me on - joey Wed, 22 Jun 2011 13:34:02 +0100 http://www.animateclay.com/index.php/articles/72-free-downloads/130-helium-frog-animator-free-stop-motion-capture-software#comment-431 how do you chose a skin>:( - joey Wed, 22 Jun 2011 13:32:50 +0100 http://www.animateclay.com/index.php/articles/72-free-downloads/130-helium-frog-animator-free-stop-motion-capture-software#comment-414 Will not let me open the program after I downloaded it because I do not know how to choose a skin, please help:( - ian M.

This doesn't seem to give you that ability. Could also be my OS, but with a Windows7 desktop, the program froze on several occasions. Could just be my fault in not looking at the requirements though. No fault on the programmer. Good work in general, I'll just have to keep looking though. Thanks! - CFisher Mon, 01 Nov 2010 13:54:05 +0100 http://www.animateclay.com/index.php/articles/72-free-downloads/130-helium-frog-animator-free-stop-motion-capture-software#comment-108 I don't think you read the agreement...that why you having problem with it.
