Anim8or Community

I have waited so long for this!  It may not make a 100% perfect cutout, but it doesn't need to to be either. Why? The time saved fixing only a few misplaced faces/lines is no where near the time spent having to manually cutout a circle, or what ever, from a already modeled mesh.


Although it couldn't hurt to be improved just a little bit on the 'reliability' factors. I thank you from the bottom of my heart Kubajzz and all who helped. It's people like you, that know .Asl/coding, that are making Anim8or a more perfect tool everyday.

Could you explain number 3?  the description "a bit dodgy" doesn't really give much of an idea of the issue.

A lot of times you can't select a face no matter what angle you turn your model.

I have also experienced this, it's quite odd. You usually have turn on or off the 'Front' or 'Back' face selection tabs. A lot of times you have to group and then un-group (up to 1-5 times depending on what got corrupted) the model to re-enable face selection. However, these are the fixes for me when this happens, it may not work for all of Anim8ors... well, let's just call them ...quirks.

EDIT: I tired your Demo, it was very nice, little slow moving though. Built with 'Gamemaker' or C+?

I actually really like this new design, it feels better, looks better and looks like most of the other 3D sites forums.

Simple but to the point, that's the way I like it.

Very nicely done! A very long animation for anim8or, must of taken ages to complete. Kudos to you!

I came across this one a while ago. You can either post pictures of the model for comment or send the model in to be downloaded by the users. I've never used it so I cant comment on how good it is but I just figured I would share the link.

Wow! this guy is selling Blender, Poser, Mud box,anim8or, and sketch up ( all are free by the way) a $5,797.00 as he says for $47 dollars. What a rip off.

MudBox is free? The Trial/Demo is the only thing I can find for free?

The rest are all free though. I hope this guy gets sent to jail.

Thank you, all of you!


"...Actually, Suppastar actually inspired me to do some modeling..."


I feel so special right now; I caused some of the elusive 'inspiration'.

Thanks both of you!...

@Spicy

I'm sure the same happened to you as it did to Hiho, the first image didn't show up? It's OK, the image with the green lines is the UV Map, just so you could see the edges more clearly.


@Hihosilver

Thank you! It saves about 1-6 minutes of render time on my PC with Full AA.
 Yes, that is the only downside, but it works and if you have no shadows cast on it, it's very convincing!.



On a side note I resent the first image showing the the texture on the model. So only the the picture showing the UV map showed up huh? Weird!


I'm planing on if/when Anim8or gets Normal maps, that I could also bake a Higher poly model on to the low poly. It would make it a lot more convincing then just texture alone.


EDIT: A friend of mine seen the image and asked me if the model was 'fully' modeled. I showed him this image. He thought it was just a rectangle underneath. I'm sure all of you wondered too.
