It's all good Tercero, I'd be happy to help you out :) If the model itself is uvmaped I can segment it and begin to rig it for JKII. If you havent finished the uvmaping yet it's probly best to wait till your a little further along to do all that beca...  [Read More]

I was having this problem at first Anavel. What bone do you have bolt_l_hand weighted to? It sounds like you have that tag weighted to the pelvis perhaps (it was for me) Make sure it's weighted to the lhand bone. That should fix both your problems :D...  [Read More]

Time for a quick update. I was able to work quite a bit on the skin this morning (no face work yet, soon) I took some time and put up some new shots, hopefully they are a little brighter this time (Let me know if they are still too dark DarExc) htt...  [Read More]

Elkin, If you read a few posts up you'd understand why it looks that way. I haven't put more than a very basic skin on him. It looks like a black cutout because that's basically what it is. It's an extremely basick skin, just color, that's it, this w...  [Read More]

heh, I was just about to post one DarExc. I'm almost finished with the Sidious face. Just the lower section of the head is visable. I'm getting close, I'll post a shot of his face soon. The model for the most part is done, I just have to skin it now...  [Read More]

Triiiple, That's exactly what I meant, I have not added the inner layer of the robe as of yet, or capped the bottem of the robe, so you can see through parts of the robe. I'm still playing with the weights, right now I have the bottem of the robe set...  [Read More]

heh, don't worry DarExc, I got the Sidious face coming. (normal colors and all :D ) I'll take a few shots in modview for you, so you can see him closer up. One of the things that the Q3 engine loves to do is wash out the colors quite a bit, so I have...  [Read More]

Yeah baby, update time, Ok, I've got him into modview now and he's deforming much better than I expected, especially considering I've never weighted a model before. I'm confident that he'll be ingame with a basic skin by tommorow. (tonight if I have...  [Read More]

DarExc! Your a total life saver :D Thanks for the shots! I've almost got the hood shaped correctly now. I pushed some verts around to get that gap look. It's going to be intresting to unwrap like that, but I'll figure it out. The shots will be great...  [Read More]
