  1. @leon9obsidian It should do it automatically. Just move your frames from 24 (default) to something like 300 and click play 🙂 If you want to know how to save a render animation just ask me!
    *NOTE* To move your frames up. You see bellow the timeline bar the two boxes saying '24.00'? In the left box type the desired number 😉
