Ok, so I took a really long break after I lost half of the project, but now I finished the body! now I just have to make the mane and tail

[3Dgeek11]

Hmm, it looks great! But I do see a few areas here and there that may require some touching-up.

Keep it up!

[CoriDavis]

Ok, when I tried to UV the mane, the picture doesn't move.  what's going on?

[CoriDavis]

ok, fixed the UV, now to have my first go at skinning! I hope I can do this..

[CoriDavis]

here's my walk test for my model! the cross-section tail idea didn't work as well as I planned, any suggestions?

That horse looks great! So does the walk-cycle.

I don't have any suggestions for the tail, except to make a "tail" that has depth instead.
If you want help with that, just ask.

[CoriDavis]

oh and one other thing, if I import the object to make another character, will the morph targets be imported as well?

Ask someone else, I've never dealt with morph targets...

[Maximilianibus]

wow, nice!

[CoriDavis]

Ok, so every time I get on my file there's 57 missing items because I imported my skeleton from the cursed horse to build my figure on and I told it not to bring in the items.  is there a way to delete missing items?

[Janro]

Pretty good model and animation. If I may suggest something for the tail, you could try what some videogames do. Have a cylinder shape to take its place. Then up to you if you can build an alpha texture that goes transparent near the end to produce the soft/hair effect.

Morph targets are copied when either imported or copy-pasted. The latter gets annoying when you just copy paste one part ><

As for the missing items, the only thing way I get around that is to delete everything that is attached to the skeleton before importing it into the other project file. I don't know how to remove it in your new project file without having to go into text editor.

[CoriDavis]

oh, I see. can you tell me about Text editor? how will that get rid of it?

[CoriDavis]

ugh.. I had the key frames from the walk sequence, but now I can't get rid of them!  I want to  use my scene over, and I delete all the keys from the walk sequence, then I switch from scene mode to sequence mode or something, and they all come right back!  same thing when I undo something, it doesn't go away!

[Janro]

I'm not too familiar with the way the way the text editor is built actually. I just assume that it is possible. It will be a very long process. I'd suggest just saving a copy of the original then deleting the objects attached to the figure and then importing.

I've had that problem regarding deleting sequences. From what I gather it's like permanently gluing the frames in there. The only way around it is to delete the figure and then put in a new one.

Last thing, I'd suggest you use modify post button instead of double posting. Unless you want to bump your thread. ^_^

[CoriDavis]

oh yeah, good idea. usually I do, but sometimes I forget.  normally if I double post it's because I modified something in my project, or I have an urgent problem (urgent meaning I get impatient, lol).  you know what someone should do? someone should make a thing like facebook where you can post anim8or project updates! lol, I wonder if I could accomplish that...

Oh and deleting the figure worked by the way
