I can help you get this "thing" ingame,can make you a custom bone set and rig him.
Of course animations are up to.

thanks but no thanks, I'm planning on getting this into unreal before anything else.

gave up on the rigging for now, going to uv this thing and get SOME kind of textures on it at least

e: blender kicks ass for uvs. jesus it's so freaking easy to unwrap characters. work on textures tomorrow

Holy @#$% you made this using Blender? The impossible tool that nobody can use? Nice dude. I commend you. +rep.

blender really isn't all that bad, I don't get why it gets such a bad rep around here. the learning curve isn't terrible if you sit down and actually learn to use it. open source, if someone really wanted to I'm sure they could make exporters, I know there's unreal exporters

It doesn't have a bad rep beyond mooseguy. It's just that we use 3ds max.

Agreed.


The learning curve on blender is the longest one I know. Other then "LuxRender".


Because 3ds Max is BETTER.

Lol I love how Skid's post right after yours invalidated your statement. It's all good tho.

Yeah that is pretty funny.

Sooo that makes 2 dislikes a 2 likes.

you've obviously not heard of http://www.wings3d.com/

Who cares when you can use 3ds MAX.




Can you render at all?


EDIT: HIAHG what is wrong with quoteing oyu? it nevre works rigth

Wings looks promising, at least for other stuff. We just like 3ds max because of all the haloness it can do, and let's leave it at that.

because I totally want to spend a thousand dollars on a license when a program that I can use for free is just as capable of doing what I need it to



holy bad topo batman


ain't happy with it, but that's to be expected with my first shot at a character model. my edgeflows are nothing like what I'd like, and I've got an odd number of edges around the legs, which creates an inevitable triangle in the feet. once I rig it and start getting some animations done I may rebuild the entire thing around the skeleton. if nothing else this craptastic version can be used as a placeholder.

if I do remake it, I plan on doing high poly sculpting then get a low poly mesh and bake in the normals. didn't realize how much more of a logical workflow high poly sculpting first was, leave it to me to learn stuff way too late

currently rigging. the skeletal system is still a bit overwhelming

You know there is such a thing as a FREE TRIAL right?

There are 14 of them as well as "alternate" ways like what YOU were trying to do awhile ago. THOSE however are not legal. GMax is basically 3ds MAX except it won't render. I am sure there is a way to do it though.

Man your biped has one hell of a hard on.

If you know how to get collision working, then do it yourself. If you don't know how, then give it to someone who's willing to do it for you.

Then release would be awesome.

Also i like blender, but i can't model for balls. So i just have a lot of fun using the particle system :D. which is actually really simple and fun once you understand how to use it.

unfortunately I'm getting asemetrical weight painting on the model

a bit of a setback. I probably screwed up my model somewhere down the line. ugh I'm going to have to troubleshoot this

updates will come soon, but not too soon

fixd

e: I think I figured it out, I must have oddly transformed the mesh at some point. I exported it as an obj and re-imported it and it seems to work perfectly.

expect an update probably tomorrow

The tail seems obscene.

... when did I ever say I wasn't

oh you were actually serious about it. I thought you were trolling with those original uvs

looks dead-on now tho

The Head's not quite perfect... I'd adjust it so there's only two pixels between the eyes and the top but knowing my luck I would jack it up.
