Hey guys! Been busy busy busy over here! Looks like everyone's been plugin' away while I was gone! :D Update Time! So I'm really close to finishing the rig! I now have the stretchy rig on the spine, arms, and legs. IK/FK Switch for the arms and legs. Armor and weapons are all rigged, along with some other geometry that…
This probably isn't what you want to hear but 3dsmax has some great tools for making morphs, mirroring changes from one side to another and adding in asymmetry wile still working mirrored. It's an amazing little plug-in called: Transmographier It doesn't get any easier than this:…
Number 1 I've already written as a MEL script (currently at work tho so I can't release it without clearance - I wrote a similar thing for Max though, which is available). It's not much more than 200-300 lines of code, and probably could even be optimised more - also I'm pretty sure there are other scripts out there…
Hi there, I'm new to polycount and game modeling but why not give it a try. Well, my 3d skills aren't great at all but that's the reason why we're all here. I think the workshops are a great opportunity and because of that i registered. Present I'm at work and could not submit my first attempt but this will follow tonight.…
My personal experience is that geforce cards require huge fans and suck battery, where as ati cards don't appear to require such fannage... in fact I am running an ati card and my fans never kick in even with HL2 at it's highest settings. oh that and a Geforce "GO" card melted my laptop. Which HP couldn't fix. I think more…
Downloading now, really liked the first one, plus MT Framework 2 looks sweet. Edit: Good stuff, although it takes ages to kill that AK when you play on your own and when you finally kill it, it melts away. Capcom never ceases to amaze me with some of the stuff they do. Wonder how they did that melting effect? There are…
Sunday is funday! Exploration of a character design to buddy up with the dolphin looking dude I posted earlier. I´m toying with basing him off a Moray Eel atm, but terrified of how you make an eel into a convincing humanoid while keeping the eel like nature somewhat intact :D First sculpt, while watching the F1 race! Go go…
Feels like my wrist is going to break if i don't get a tablet soon..Should probably start saving up i guess... Anyways updates here finally!, Decided to scrap the suit design and start over. Trying out fibermesh so i can visualize the hair better,going to make planes though... Meh so i guess the high poly is pretty much…
Yeah..that one was a tough meany...I think I had Rav/Rav (for quick Stagger) Com/Rav (Damage) and Com/Med (maybe even an additional Med/Med for fast healing...don't remember, but it might be a good idea ;) )...used some Phoenix Downs on that weakling Hope and some Potions...and when I was really close to death I summoned…
I'm re-reading MEG by Steve Alten at the moment. I had to start it again after the announcement that the film was coming next summer along with a revised version of the book this June. I guess Alten felt his writing had improved since 1997 and decided to spruce the original up a bit. After I finish MEG i'm onto The Loch,…
