Re: bind modifier for C4d working on child meshes?
hmm, well, this is similar to a question i've seen before, the character you are working on is not made of one mesh, and this causes a problem in c4d, a multi object character similiar to this one is usually rigged using inverse kinematics and a bit of ik, to be honest you best option is probably to combine the mesh… -
Re: [Portfolio] Sota Yuyama, Character Animator
Thanks and I really appreciate nice comments! These are awesome fuel to my animation engine to keep moving forward. : ) aesir -I animated that scene in 3dsmax and used Biped rig from Character studio. Biped rig in Charactor studio is limited for customization but basic IK/FK control is seamless and very powerful. I would… -
Re: Is this a good rig for Modeling/Gaming?
You need more, oil, hot chicks, tires, FK/IK blending, rope or fishing line... http://www.alaska-in-pictures.com/data/media/17/aerial-monopod-oil-rig_3217.jpg http://www.offshore-job.net/pics/ladies_on_a_rig.jpg http://www.funis2cool.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/big-rig-jig-01.jpg… -
Re: Game Specific Animation Techniques
I can't imagine the basic functionality of a rig being different from game and feature film, the only thing feature film rigs would have is .. more shit :) muscles and corrective blend shapes and what have you.. if you think of showing of rigging in your demo, then I don't think you need stuff like muscles and whatever,… -
[Help] Animation - 3DS Max to Blender setup?
Hey to all, I have an engine that only has an exporter/importer made with Blender (don't ask, long story), and the raw files are available also only in Blender (the rigs, the model setup, everything). Now the problem is, I'm not able to get the Rig animation setups (IK and Handlers) in Blender properly (old school issues)… -
Attempt at extendable tentacle rig
Hi! As you can see in my attached screen prints I am trying to make an IK rig for extendable tentacles. What I hope to achieve is to be able to extend the tentacle but still be able to rotate the tentacle and adjust the placement of it. I have been watching some tutorials on Youtube but felt like they were a bit too… -
Re: --FINISHED--Tiefling Rogue
Looking great, the weapons are looking slick! Speaking of rigging, assuming you're using Maya, can I recommend Advanced Skeleton? It's an auto rig that takes a bit of setup but it's my personal fav. It provides IK/FK switches for arms, legs and the spine and there are lots of resources on their YouTube. The skinning tends… -
Re: Modo 401 for game art
Yeah, modo doesn't do any character animation at all. Not really. It has 2-joint planar IK and some powerful "Set Driven Key" kinds of things (channel links). But no CA. However, if you really want to texture, light, and render in modo, you can easily import MDD files exported from other apps. It works quite well,… -
Re: Dreadnought Help ?
i would rig the tubes/pipes with a set of bones and link them to the parent (arm or torso or whatever) make an FK/IK switch and just animate the tubes swinging or bouncing around as if physics were applied by hand. I once tried this before with a character i made where the character had a compressor on his backpack and a… -
