how can you turn it on in A:M?

whats radiosity?? i heard [read] some people talking about it in the forums and i was wondering what it was....i know its gotta be something really cool because all the images were awesome!

thanks

those are pretty cool...thanks

anybody got a medium-difficulty tutorial that focuses on making a model? i want something thats fun to make and easy to animate. thanks!

"metalholes.dsts" is this on the CD or do i need to download it?

im making a speaker and i want to make the little holes in the front...do i have to model each little hole in or is there an easier way...if i use bump mapping isnt it always random? i want them to be in little rows

i finished the decals best i could...it doesnt look great but then again the car images werent perfect as decals i think it came out okay heres some pictures[attachmentid=20739][attachmentid=20740][attachmentid=20741]

i finished the body...im probably going to finish tomorrow right now im doing the decals and im going to do the little light on top and the crank...it looks OK right now but i cant post any pictures right now because im in a hurry

nevermind...it fixed itself

i put a decal on a model and then i was going to put a different decal on the other side but now whenever i try to make a new decal, when i postion it it is just a white square! i tried changing the key color and useing different pictures...how do i fix this?

ive got nothing to do so how about someone posts a picture of a couple sides of something that isnt too complicated and ill do my best to model it and show you how it comes out. not something that will be really hard, but nothing too easy either....i think this will be fun

ill listen to the eagles

i started on this helmet which i think is from quake...i just googled for helmet and this is the only one i saw with three sides to use for rotoscopes. i got one side of the front done but its flat...is pulling all the splines individually the only or best way to get them into thier place on the Z axis or is there an easier way?

Thanks for all the support. i think what ill do is repeat some of the tutes from the manual (mostly the ones centered on modeling because i think i would be best at that) and look at my skill before and after. this way i can see how much i improved. ill keep you guys posted

thanks

aim at is what i was looking for...thanks a lot

i want my camera to swing around an object while facing it the whole time, but when i tried, every frame turns the camera further away. i tried going to the last frame and pointing the camera to it but it didnt work...how can i do it?

well, ive done a lot of 3d drawings (vanishing points, ect) and i was very good at it and i dont think its the interface either. the only thing hard for me is splines and patches (kinda like someone saying "yeah im good at building houses, i just have trouble with hammers and nails") is there some basic tute that can help me get further and better at this? thanks for your help

whew thats hefty for me...im like a noob thanks

im working on this little guy...he started as a doodle and i want to keep him as a kind of cartoony guy so i drew the outline then made the mouth and eyes as splines rather than decals so i could move them around. i made them render as lines and black then gave them bones. i made a simple animation where he waves and set it at cartoon render. now its done and i cant see the eyes, and changing his expression is a pain. does anyone have a solution for me?

ive had animation master since....the christmas before last and i dont think im good at all....i took most of the tutes from the manual and i cant make anything of quality. ive seen some posts from new guys who are already ahead of me. is there some secret super-tute that teaches you everything that i dont know about?? i want to get better at this. any suggestions?
