Mecha WIP
A buddy and me are thinking about doing a mech style game for our final project coming up during the summer semester. I will be handling the modeling and animating portion of the project so I decided to make a concept bot for said game. Specifically I wanted something to practice animating and rigging, since I have little… -
Re: Where to go from here (Character artist career advice)
"ike could a junior get hired ..." This is a fallacy. In a field like game art production there is no such things as "Junior" employees (in the sense of "low skilled"). You get hired if you can do the job, period. In other words you start as a "regular", not a junior. And if a company insists on labeling a new, perfectly… -
Re: ZBrush - Seeking workflow advice / suggestions
Yep there is a problem, or strange tick in max, or with ZB. Make a box in max at .5x.5 and 2meters tall (make it transparent, its easier). I stay with cm as both viewport and system units in Max. Use GoZ to send your model body to max, its too small. Go to ZB amd at the bottom of the tool menu open the export dialogue,… -
Re: Little Kerrigan Prime - Smallcraft
By the will of the Swarm, I command thee to RISE FROM THE DEAD! (Necroposting yay!) I am finally, after almost a year of abandoning this project, returning to finish Kerrigan here. She deserves it and I never really finished with the my original texturing experiment. Got super side-tracked by freelance and...uh...games.… -
Re: Looking for retro games with an old rigging technique
"Quake 3 took a hybrid approach with the torso, head and legs being separate skinned meshes." That's not exactly true. In QIIIA the elements with smooth deformations (torso and legs) are not skinned meshes (as in, driven by a skeleton) ; they are purely vertex animations. They can of course be authored as skinned skeletal… -
Rig finished, Now need to paint weights correctly
Hi, first time doing a rig, and binding the skin to a character model i've made. My question is most importantly, how it should look like when i paint weights, so that when i move the ik handles.. the character doesnt move like a jelly fish? Another important question, i have armor/clothes/weapons on my character. Right… -
[Ma.K] Panzerkampfanzug Waprüf (K) KAUZ
Being stuck at home here for a week in Houston during Ike, I was without power for 11 days. Fortunately I had a generator running so I was able to salvage some of the week and do some personal work, between cleaning and cutting down fallen trees, repairing damage, etc. I decided to do one of Kow Yokoyama's Maschinen… -
Mapping pole vector/mocap to UE4 Mannequin Knee Twist channel
I recently worked on a UE4 project that required putting custom skeletal mocap data on to the Mannequin rig. The majority went fine, except for mapping the knee direction/angle to the knee_twist channel on the ik feet. Has anyone else came across this? I dug around but couldn't find a toggle to have the legs have a pole… -
Re: (maya) probably a noob question on rigging
I tried the rotation order on the segment joints, the result joints, and everything else attach to this part of the rig including the constrains with no effect. Aim constraint works but doesn't, it appears to fix it however the segment joints and their bind joints no longer stay with result joints and adding a point… -
Re: Maya 2012 Viewport 2.0 thread
I'm working on some renders right now for Earl using 2.0, and for the most part it's working out well, and in fact rending the image with 2.0 (instead of just screen capping) is even better, however there's some weird bugs. In the viewport I've got joints lights and handles hidden, but the IK handles still show up in 2.0,…
