ok cool. Yeah animation is really what I want to do, so I guess screwing around with existing models is a good idea.

Is Rigging kind of like, adding 'bones' to the models? Like a Stop-motion armature?

>>55944
More or less, but a lot more technical of course.

Cool, Thanks

That's pretty much exactly it. You have to position them in space (basically they're just points, the bone is just a display convenience), hierarchise them, them apply their influence to each of them. Influence of 1 between a bone (or joint) and a vertex means the vertex will undergo 100% of the Translation, Rotation and Scaling the bone does (you should never scale skeletons though).
That's "skinning", then "rigging" is more setting up advanced controls for the skeleton to break the hierarchy where you need it (like allow to pull the whole body when pulling the hand) or higher-level controls (like creating a "fist" slider which will close the whole hand instead of having to rotate each phalanx individually).
There's also the term "setup", which I think includes all of skeleton creation, skinning and rigging. This can be one of the most technical parts in CG (thats what "Technical Directors" do), and it can involve scripting, so be warned.
Though again if you stick to animation you won't probably go that far.

It seems that displacement mapping in raytracing/modelling means something different than in game programming. I was talking about parallax (occlusion) mapping aka displacement mapping, which doesn't create new polygons. Displacement mapping in modelling/raytracer seems to correspond to hardware tesselation in newer engines.

I know quite a few game programmers that seem to have a poor glossary when it comes to such things

>>55901
They must work for Zoo.

>I stand corrected, thanks. Hey wait a minute, where's my insult?

FUCK YOU MOTHER FUCKER

you're welcome :)

Model my shattered faith in humanity. DOTH YOUR PIRACY KNOW NO BOUNDS?

>>53266
I'll model that last.

>>53228
Good idea, Thanks.

>>53227
Also very good idea, Thanks.

Model your bedroom. Start with the cube, mold it into the shape of your room. Then, add a bed. Then a dresser. These essentially are boxes with slight modifications. Following that, add details to the bed, the dresser. Add more items in your room. Learn by doing what's around you...yes...i did just say that and I am not taking it back. Anyway, have fun! If you are willing, blender is free (2.5) and usable.

Can't touch this.

Yes a wine glass, it's a very good model to start with imo, it's not very hard, but you learn quite a lot of the basics of how to think when modeling..

>>55910

Do you imagine that it propels itself through space with wheels?

>>55907

Looks almost like the wheels from the APC in Aliens

>____>

FUCK MAYA and FUCK JOSE

>>55920
no however its meant as something to roam an alien planet with. as the person above suggested.

digital tutors helped we with basics of maya, theyre really good

omggggggggg it workz

Hey. No.

I can't help but wonder if this guy is a spammer or not.

This is real I think. That faggot AnonTalk spam needs to stop.

What is loic? I don't wanna take the risk of having cp on my computer >_>

Low Orbit Ion Cannon.

It's an application to aid anons in DDoS'ing websites.

I'd say you need a portfolio showing how you can stick at something for a long while. You need to show studies.

I don't think you should be learning the programs at the mo, not that it wouldn't help, but you are going to the college to learn the programs.


How muck is the course?

>>55914
im a britfag so its free.

i already have a few tools (3D Studio Max, photoshop, darkbasic) so its okay to start off with im sure

I think in c4d it's under Objects > Scene > Camera. This is pretty good for a 2nd project. May we see the wireframe?

Was face gen involved?

Hair strands are waaay to thick. Looks more like he has a rug on his head. You also need to comb his hair, it shouldn't be sticking out like that.

THEM EARS
you can probably center the camera on the object

in max that's press Z while the object is selected, but fuck if I know anything about c4d

maybe use hairs for the eyebrows as well, looking a little weird like that, especially when the beard hair is working so well compared

and eyelashes?
