just finished watching book 3. its terrible that there is no book 4 (air). i just hope that the movie doesn't destroy all chances of there being another cartoon series. one of my favorite shows of all time. right up there wth House, SVU, Voyager, and X-Files. a Kinect fighting game would be interesting...
Awesome, thanks guys! @spitty - That's a great idea! I was playing with the Kinect to make music based on body movements awhile back, this would be a great evolution of that. Oculus and magic music hands would be pretty mindblowing. Getting ready for the next moment - I want to do a circle of rocks that turn into spirit…
This may not be the best way to block out an environment. I'm using this temporary texture to help clarify what's happening. Although I am still very much in the conceptualizing stage, I do like the direction it's heading. Still to come: More mining equipment, More traversal paths, More tunneling, More cliff faces, More…
Usually the kinect doesn't have the resolution required for capturing fingers. I've heard the next version might, but for all I know that's just a rumor. Measurand has a glove for using motion capture on fingers, which I think can be combined with other motion capture devices. I'm not sure if it falls into your range of…
I've used http://ipisoft.com/ a few years ago. I found the playstation eyes to give better results than the kinect, even though it was harder to setup. Capturing at 60fps is worth the extra hassle of of using playstation cameras. The results were better than expected, but not as good as what you get out of a vicon setup.…
the year and a half I was on Star Wars: Kinect, I saw 3 or 4 art directors on their end get hired then 'disappear' suddenly. This doesn't surprise me at all. who says you wont? If anything, you'll probably get a quality game now since Disney is only closing LucasArts as a developer, but still plans on licensing out it's…
hmm.. I wonder how high you can build - just make and ion cannon platform/station that orbits and drop tnt from a great height ..or you know ..lasers. would be awesome if you could translate the kinect way of importing an animated group of building blocks to loop - and then you'd have a automatically moving platform to…
You probably would be surprised to see how many people from USA and Canada (from this forum) has finished Bioshock infinite and they didn't pay a shit. The game requires steam... and if you see their steam account, omg lol. Well, let's not make this thread another thread about piracy. back to topic, anyone with kinect has…
Shmowzow! The company I work for (Hellicar & Lewis) is doing an interactive kinect-controlled unity game for a popular cartoon. We need two freelance modeler/animators that can model simple stylized characters quickly to pass to our programmer. Strong character animation would be really beneficial to the project. Here's…
I know very little about Windows 8. My wariness of it comes from the redesign of XBox live which uses the same design ethos and is objectively functionally worse than the previous iteration in order to more easily facilitate Kinect control. This looks like something similar - modifying the design for tablets while making…
