Alright, that was fucking stressful but as usual, the issue was I made a mistake way earlier and now I was trying to do complex stuff to solve derivative errors from that mistake. It's kind of a lot to explain, but I'll try to do so simply so somebody else might avoid the same mistake: I rigged a human model, then after…
Thanks for replying, as an answer for the questions: I've always had problems with 3Do (youtube.com/watch?v=FfG2zU4ajiE this got solved in a way but other than that I do not experience any other problems as of yet.

Hello every one! I think this topic would quite fit to my 2 questions. I read in the UDK manual that it is possible to use the same animation package for 2 different meshes, only the bones of the meshes has to be the same number, hierachie and naming. So I tried to import a skeleton in UDK - but without a mesh. And I got…

Ive been looking into what i need to get a job as a full time rigger somewhere. Definitely learn python, not mel. Mel is good to…
Common problem. Depending on what software you are using, there are different ways to solve this. You posted the solution to this for Max, so I'll cover the other base: Maya. Un-instancing and freezing geometry in Maya will cause the faces on that mesh(es) to point in the opposite direction of the normal. In the viewport,…

I've been using Max for 20 years, I customize quad menus, I added 60 shortcuts and i did some interface changes, believe me I model texture lighting and render very very fast. In a yesterday world, Clients will love you if you deliver renders as fast as I do. What matters is how you customize your software to work for…
Most probably my last post in this thread as my character course in school is over and we are moving on to other things next week. I wont say I'm done as I would like to come back to the character and do another texturing pass. Here is what I've got now and at this moment I will consider it final. Boy has this been a…
