Tutorial Requests
hihosilver:
Thanks guys, I've added the new listings. You're right there may be a useful tool called plantmaker, but I'm also sure it can't do any plant you want. Plants can also be good to teach people the methods themselves.
As for video format, I wasn't sure if I was going to do videos or not.
I'm currently working on a simple sword tutorial, then I'll do a more advanced sword tutorial. Right now they're being done with screenshots and will be in a written format. Though you're probably correct that I should start making video tutorials if I want to make things easier on myself and probably others. If/When I go to video tutorials there will be sound, as I have a mic. Is there a video format you'd prefer for the tutorials?

Well Hi Ho u could always do a tut on making objects stay put on the ground when animating I think a lot of peeps would appreciate that ... are u gonna use camtasia ... narration is better with tuts as well as a well defined screen so you can see where u are heading! ... I hate those time lapse ones on youtube u can`t even see whats happening in half of them ...total waste of time.

Yea im not real sure on a video format that is why I asked you. Kreator is right narration is very nice. And plantmaker your right you cant make a whole lot of realistic plants but is still a fun and easy program. Another tutorial that would be nice is a tutorial on different kinds of animals ex. bears, dogs, cats, ect. The reason I am asking for that is there are no tutorials on that. Another tutorial is box modeling and I believe it is called line extruding those would be nice. (testing out glow) ;D

Kreator: I'm not exactly sure what you mean by staying on the ground, do you mean in things such as walk cycles? I'm not exactly sure what I'll use for video capture. Is camtasia a good program for it? I plan on having narration, as I don't like time-lapse videos as much either. I may post them on youtube, but I'll be sure to offer higher resolution videos as well, as I hate youtube's quality. You can't see a thing.
RnDr FOX: The video format would probably be something that's more or less universally acceptable, such as a format and codec that's readable by "Windows Media Player" or perhaps useable with quicktime, as I know it's a format many in the 3d industry use. Mainly it's used because you can go frame-by-frame, and it's nice high quality. I'll add animals to my list as well. I already have modeling techniques written down, they will probably include: Box modeling, Poly-by-poly modeling, and edge extrude methods. I'll probably also include the facts and knowledge that these can be and are usually all combined to make the most efficient form of modeling.
Hm, for some reason the glow never seems to work on my computer... I just get highlighted text... unless that's what it's supposed to be.

Camtasia is a very good Program for doing tuts especially with narration... I got a free version of it ... would b very glad to let U have it if u Pm me
