Anim8or Community

Hey, everyone. I know this may sound funny, but I want to know a few things about turbosquid.com.

First off, has anyone here sold anything on there before? I'm wanting to make a little money so I can get what (I) want. Mostly, because all I ever get is an occasional surprise from my parents, and some money every now and then. But mostly all I'm entitled to is breakfast, lunch, dinner. Just kidding, obviously, but that's almost how it is.

Anyway, to the point, I think I have good enough models to sell. And I was wondering, how much do they charge you to sell? I've heard that they deduct 50% on every sale. Is this true?
And also, are anim8or's exporting capabilities good enough to fit someone with 3ds Max, Maya, Lightwave, or whatever? I guess I mean the way it's UVmapped, or just a planar texture? I've exported to 3ds and obj and opened them in Blender and Gmax and they look fine, but what about commercial programs? Just wondering, thanks for any responses!

I'd really appreciate it, guys if you could shed some light on this little matter.

@headwax: I've seen that Joan of Ark tut before. Everyone says it's special. Is it possible in Anim8or?

Anyways, I'll take a look through the looking-- reference pages... *sigh*

Very simple, very good!

Are you planning on finishing it?

Hello again!

I have a friend on another forum who is using Linux Ubuntu, and I told him about Anim8or. He wanted to try it, but he can't run it on his OS. Is there a way to run Anim8or on Linux/Ubuntu or whatever that thing is?

Lots of appreciation if someone knows how!
Thanks, guys.

Do you have autosave enabled? Maybe it's still in there. I hate for you to lose all that stuff...

I got a PM, not an email, though. Unless you meant to say PM.

I replied to the PM

As far as I know,

1. Subdivide the model, (make sure it is a "subdivision" not a mesh that has been subdivided and converted to mesh after that. more info in manual.)

Press CTRL-F or CTRL-W to get to wire frame modes.

2. Get the "edge" tool. Draw select the points (not edges, it doesn't always come out properly) that connect to the edges that you want squared again.

3. While they are selected, click the menu Edit>>Edge Properties, then click "rounded" and in "level" type 1, 2, or 3 depending on how squared/flat you want them (3 is flattest, 1 is kind of flat, 2 is medium)

I hope this helps!

Nice, simon!

I don't notice the edges being jagged...

Yeah, I think the render would look great for a book cover! Or something, album cover, etc.
Nice,
