Author	Topic: anim8or, the movie
Luu Junior Member	posted 12-30-2005 06:43 PM I may be able to help, but after I finish with my school project -_- but yeah, keep the good ideas coming IP: Logged
startrekfan002 Junior Member	posted 12-31-2005 07:23 AM Well, good ideas are here. But can't we make up a final script now, so that we can start modeling and anim8ing? If we all agree, it should be stored on the writer's computer, and he posts scenes which must be completed before he gives the new scene. IP: Logged
benney Junior Member	posted 12-31-2005 10:02 AM Sounds like a good idea to me. When you have several people on the same subject then you need a central point so I think the originator is the best solution to get the centralized and started. IP: Logged
P_R7 Junior Member	posted 12-31-2005 11:39 AM I guess I might be able to do a very short script, but are we doing my idea or what's-his-names idea? (sorry, can't remember the name) And the job you are describing sounds like the director. Stil, I might not mind bossing people around a little. And i have watched a lot of " The Making of.." flicks. So, I guess this is an application. IP: Logged
Libra Junior Member	posted 12-31-2005 11:54 AM Where would the central point, wich you were talking about, be ? A website, or MSN ? IP: Logged
startrekfan001 Junior Member	posted 12-31-2005 12:34 PM One of us should raise a temporary chatpage on his website. If someone can give me the script, i'll be glad to play as host. I will also search for the script. Just a security measure: We ONLY discuss about this movie. Any other subjects, like telling adresses, will result in the removal of the page. I am really carefull with such things since i can't see who is behind the other computer IP: Logged
startrekfan001 Junior Member	posted 12-31-2005 12:52 PM Well, i found my script kinda fast. You can direct chat on www.hetcalandlyceum.com/computerclub/chat I hope this helps a bit. I remain searching for a better script, since this is not so good yet. IP: Logged
P_R7 Junior Member	posted 12-31-2005 01:35 PM Wait. Do you mean script as in story with exact dialogue and scene descriptions; or script as in program or code? And what eaxactly do i do on that page? It seems to be asking for a name or a message... Oh, it's a chatroom. I've never used one of those before, someone clue me in. [This message has been edited by P_R7 (edited 12-31-2005).] IP: Logged
startrekfan002 Junior Member	posted 12-31-2005 03:04 PM chatroom? All you must do is enter your name and a message. But this script looks more like a primitive forum; i'm trying to find a better one IP: Logged
P_R7 Junior Member	posted 12-31-2005 03:23 PM Oh, I get it. I was pushing the wrong refresh button and could only see my first message. Happy New Year! Well not yet, but I will be leaving the computer soon. IP: Logged

startrekfan002 Junior Member	posted 01-02-2006 09:34 AM Hi! I think you should start with making one of the characters. Choice: Witch, Knight, Robot, or village people. Ofcourse, you can also make lasersword, or castle, choose yourself! IP: Logged
mactetra Junior Member	posted 01-02-2006 09:44 AM i'll give the robot a try (how detaild does it have to be?) IP: Logged
startrekfan002 Junior Member	posted 01-02-2006 10:21 AM Detail? just how much you like. Look up some pics from google, i think the Star Wars type robots would be nice. try 1 subdivision for a little detail or so. IP: Logged
Codfish Junior Member	posted 01-02-2006 06:44 PM Hey could I give the lasersword a try and post it so that u can tell me if it is satisfactory or what adjustments it needs. Codfish IP: Logged
MP3D Member	posted 01-02-2006 07:31 PM hey everyone, I would like to point out something if it all right.... Most new users dont know that..Subdivde faces is not used to smooth your mesh or to give it detail.. Subdivde faces adds more polies to your mesh..therefore giveing you the appearence of mesh smoothing..This is BAD!!!!this process makes your model heavy.....meaning they are high poly when you dont need them to be..... Solution for this process... model as much detial as you can into the mesh itself useing as litte polies as you can...NEVER use Subdivde faces.... Once you have all the detail worked into the mesh then click on Build>then>Convert to Subdivde...this is the proper way to mesh smooth your model...and it can be undone at anytime..Subdivde faces can not once you save or render your project...there is no turning back... So to recap this whole thing...never use Subdivde faces...allways use Convert to Subdivde... Just something to remember while you are learning to model in 3D.. MP3D IP: Logged

anim8ordude2005 Junior Member	posted 01-03-2006 12:28 AM going back 2 the last post on page 1, whats the equivelant of a PG in America??(I'm from England so i don't know, i had 2 look up (G)) Anyway, the story idea sounds great, what can i help with?? (I'm normally on anim8or for about an hour a day, so no huge, 20 hr (for me) projects unless u want 2 wait the best part of a month ) P.S Codfish if u give the unactivated the morph target of the activated and vice-versa, then we could have activating/deactivating lightsabres P.P.S My MSN is jedimichael@hotmail.co.uk, thats also the one to send me projects(like so i could edit them, texture them(i'm quite good at that, check out the XD: Free head topic if u don't believe me) if u ever want 2 I was also twelve only 5 days ago so i'm not the best anim8or in the world Bye all anim8ordude [This message has been edited by anim8ordude2005 (edited 01-03-2006).] [This message has been edited by anim8ordude2005 (edited 01-03-2006).] [This message has been edited by anim8ordude2005 (edited 01-03-2006).] IP: Logged

I was just working on a low polly head when this question occured to me... Are the character in the movie going to be low polly or high def.???

startrekfan002 Junior Member	posted 01-03-2006 08:27 AM High detail of course!!! You're thinkin' we're makin' some kind of secondhanded bull-shit movie!?!?(i'm not mad, actually i'm smiling right now, so don't get the wrong impression) With this movie we might prove the abilities of Anim8or to other websites, which makes Anim8or more famous...... cool, ey? IP: Logged
Codfish Junior Member	posted 01-03-2006 08:58 AM Yes this movie probably will make animat8or a lot more famous. I was just wondering if it was high det. or low poly because if it turned out to be high det. then I would have to work on my anim8ing just a little bit for my work to be satisfactory for the movie. Which it turned out to be so now I am going to go work on making high det objects and characters IP: Logged
mactetra Junior Member	posted 01-03-2006 09:33 AM i made the robot but when i subduvided it it got all wrong... im sorry but i can manage to make it... IP: Logged
mactetra Junior Member	posted 01-03-2006 10:43 AM sorry dobbel posting... but i dont know how to edit posts, (in the post over its can't noot can...) IP: Logged
P_R7 Junior Member	posted 01-03-2006 05:00 PM WHICH SCRIPT ARE WE DOING? IP: Logged
anim8ordude2005 Junior Member	posted 01-03-2006 11:02 PM Heres my 3rd project, which could help as a baseline for our castle. anim8ordude P.S I didn't know about texturing then, so i could make it a lot better IP: Logged
startrekfan002 Junior Member	posted 01-04-2006 08:59 AM have you been copying and pasting blocks? it looks like that...... Also, the gate, it should have instead of ropes or chains to get it up, some type of tractor beam..... it'd be good addition to the fun part! IP: Logged
startrekfan002 Junior Member	posted 01-04-2006 09:30 AM My castle now has a finished wall around it,(the barriers, i mean)unfortunatly with no textures yet(so not exactly finished)and i will be placing some detailed towers in the middle, like the castle you see in Shrek.Also, could anyone please help with textures? I just need a good brick texture with a window here and there for the towers and for the walls just a brick texture. www.hetcalandlyceum.com/computerclub/castle.an8 [This message has been edited by startrekfan002 (edited 01-04-2006).] IP: Logged
startrekfan002 Junior Member	posted 01-04-2006 12:53 PM Also, how about putting a skyscraper in the center? I was actually doubting if it is too much of the good stuff. If you guys like it, i'm gonna need an environmental map of the environment the castle is gonna be in. I have NO IDEA on how to create such maps, so someone else is gonna have to do that. IP: Logged
MP3D Member	posted 01-04-2006 03:45 PM you know it's pretty sad you guys/girls have all these resources at your fingur tips and you dont use them...... Let me,once again turn your attention to this..... http://www.acolytes-of-art.com/mp3d/ .... you need to browse around..There is a tutorial on how to make a landscape... very basic,very easy to follow...and looks real...(well as real as the artist wants it to be)... I will be adding a ton of tutorials to my site as soon as I have time... Enjoy, MP3D IP: Logged
anim8ordude2005 Junior Member	posted 01-05-2006 12:34 AM Were u talkin about landscapes??. Heres Mine, which could be useful.: The land texture i found somewhere i can't remember, the bridge texture is just a dark wood colour(google images)U can't see really that the wood colour is actually a proper texture, but it is anim8ordude [This message has been edited by anim8ordude2005 (edited 01-05-2006).] IP: Logged
startrekfan001 Junior Member	posted 01-05-2006 02:15 AM MP3D, i can make landscapes if i want. I just can't make an environmental map out of it. And Anim8ordude, you made a good landscape, but could you make a flat piece to make a place where the castle can stand? IP: Logged
benney Junior Member	posted 01-05-2006 02:53 AM quote: Originally posted by startrekfan002: [B]Also, how about putting a skyscraper in the center? B] Or you could even create the Castle as if it is built from steel sheets instead of brick. An old age castle with a new age look. IP: Logged
Libra Junior Member	posted 01-05-2006 03:36 AM I thinks it would be a better idea to make a sharing first.(I don't know if sharing is the good word, i'm Dutch, but I mean a plan wich says who does what etc.) If we all gonna make castles and landscapes, it isn't gonna work. So I think it should be clear who takes part, and then give everybody a few tasks. IP: Logged
startrekfan002 Junior Member	posted 01-05-2006 05:28 AM well, we can't decide for eachother, so here's gonna be a list of things to be created for now: castle ( i volunteer!! ) village horse knight more knights king village people robots lasersword textures landscapes Also, Libra, i think you wanna translate "taken verdelen" into english, right? "task distribution" seems the best to me. edit: I like the idea about the castle made from steel sheets. But could anyone provide m e with textures?

Libra Junior Member	posted 01-05-2006 06:36 AM Yes, I think 'task distribution' would be the right word'(dankje !) I recently made a horse, and i'm now building a skeleton for it, so it will soon be anim8able. (it isn't 100% finished yet) http://img230.imageshack.us/my.php?image=paard1zc.jpg IP: Logged
