Maya jellyfish with nCloth and Dynamic Hair - help!
Hey so I've been doing a lot of research on these topics but the little things are stumping me. I created a jellyfish head out of an nCloth mesh, assigned a couple locators to the top and bottom ring of verticies, and applied a squash deformer to the mesh. I then animated a bounce upwards using that system. However, the… -

Re: Can you make a living out of Unity Asset Store?
I can name a few which have done very well. NGUI creator was bringing in $70k a year off of sales but that was a year or two ago. http://blogs.unity3d.com/2012/04/07/interview-super-seller-michael-lyashenko-of-tasharen-entertainment/ Some art assets have done well as long as your doing them "correctly" releasing them in… -
Re: low poly modeling/riggin questions
A bone in a 3d package is not a bone that you get in a skeleton. A bone in a 3d package is simply a deformation helper that mimics bones, and muscles and sinews. Now, those low poly meshes are REALLY low poly. Keeping it low poly like that requires that the bones are placed with the pivot points much closer to the surface… -

CAT Capture Animation and MOCAP
Hey all, Looking at the CAT tools with regards to replacing biped as the main rig for general characters for a project and it all seems very appealing but does not come as advertised. I've read about the problems people are having with the CAT toolset but I thought I'd ask you all what your experiences are with them?… -
Re: Comparing wireframe topology in Games compared to Films
the way you think about topology for film is different. specifically for characters. film creatures are roughly ~300k+ polygons = 600k+ triangles. you spread your density into areas that have the most deformation. the face, hands, feet, shoulders etc. that is assuming you are going to see all those parts move in camera.… -
Re: Sketchbook: Teh_Bucket
First thing I'll post is the finished music video, I posted renders from the scene earlier. Back then i was thinking dark smooth cycles render but I ended up doing BI toon shading. Big change. The character was vertex halos, I rigged him with just IK targets for easy animation, but I learned that isn't enough, you can see… -
Re: Advanced Skeleton For Root Motion?
So this is kind of tricky but I got it working with Unreal and should work with other games. You are totally on the right path, but there are quite a few little steps you have to take since the rig isn't really meant to work with games, there are a bunch of end joints you don't need and cause issues in engines, and yes you… -
Re: Need help with chest animation
Another quick tip when it comes to doing mechanical animation, you don't need to have a "skeleton" or skinned rig to keep object pieces together as one animation file when exporting to UE4. If you're working in Max(I'm sure maya has something similar/the same), you can literally just use the link tool to link the lid to…
