General Anim8or Forum / Help for a newbie
« on: May 10, 2010, 04:11:31 pm »
Alright. So I'm pretty new to Anim8or and 3D modeling in general. I've been trying to teach myself with the online tutorials the past couple of days. I've made it through the Eggplant and Hand ones without too much problem, but I'm having trouble with the Walking Bird tutorial.
I've gotten to the part where you add the objects (eyes, beak, feathers, etc) to the body bone. When I was creating the beak and feathers though, I created them as seperate save files (I know, I probably shouldn't have..). So on the objects mode, I tried importing the beak so I could go back to figure mode and attach it. I manage to get the beak imported, but when I switch back to the figure editor, my bird either has yellow eyes, or has no body color at all. Every time I try to reapply a material to fix the color, nothing happens.
Has this happened to you guys before? Am I doing something wrong, or is it just a glitch?
Thanks to any replies
