greeble plugin for anim8or
« on: August 21, 2008, 10:03:45 pm »

hi i'm not great at asl and i was wondering if any of the better programmers out there would  be able to make a greeble plugin although i don't now if it is possible.

for anyone who doesn't know what a greeble is it is a plugin that randomly adds primitives and detail onto a modle. (eg.face ectursion and addition of pointless primitives that add more realism to sci fi buidings and ships.)

agian i'm not sure if it is possible.

That sound interesting...

Do you have some images what exactly it should do? If it is supposed to edit some faces and points randomly, it will be good for creating rocks, but not for sci-fi buildings... I guess the randomness you mean must have certain rules...

Yes, I think a script like this is possible... I may try it some day, but this is not really my cup of tea and my ToDo list is way too long right now...

And thanks for the link mcheccyb ;)
