iconoplast hahaha you nailed it! Yep its nice to have a handful of things fixed. It would be nice to be able to save defaults for dialogs like Relax and Pack in the UVW editor again... which the hotfix didn't fix...:poly127:
By planar forms do you mean for me to go and reduce it to a lower poly count so i can work on silhouetting and form? and i understand about the palms now that i think about it, it is more relaxed that way
If the job does not require my full attention, I turn on some interesting podcast and listen to it while grinding through tedious task. It also quite relaxing compared to some other days, so I try to enjoy it.
Thanks Crazy Pixel. I have a bit more progress here? I relaxed the mouth a bit so that it would give a better result when creating the low poly and I also started sculpting some details.
Only time I've had slowdown is with the relax tool - its kind of odd, pretty hit and miss as to when it appears. Some times packing can be slow if you are packing a lot of islands. How complex is your mesh?
LRoy: Thanks mate. I'm thinking of using a combination of mesh and alpha planes. AzzaMat: Cheers. It's attached with....magic! I've got to adjust the hair clumps into more of a relaxed pose. I think it's reading a bit stiff at the moment.
Who has two thumbs and wasn't offend or pissed off by this post? *This guy! (me)* I've been typing stupid shit for the last... *murmers* sorry, it's just what I feel like doing. Try and relax guy.
reset X- form go into animation hiarchey transform/scale reset pivot 0,0,0 make sure ALL quads no 5 sided NO Tris Also apply a relax modifier on top of it so all polys are equally spreaded .
Games, of course. But I'm also big on building/painting models, as well as fudging with electronics. I've modded my PC mice, for example, and I'm currently working on my Xbox and PS2. It's just relaxing to fiddle around with stuff.
As I said, don't over promise. Just say you can work like 2hrs a night, tops. Then you can work 8hrs on weekends. I still have time to myself, and time to play games/relax.
