Hi Steve I installed the stand alone face rig from David and then David corrected all my mistakes. I am currently weighting process of the face. I found some mistakes in the hip and shoulder area as well. So I am taking about two weeks to correct my mistakes

I have not posted anything in while Chris and I are working on the coffee shop short. I am working on the rigs and getting the face rig in place. But there were some issues with the characters that will be in the short. Mainly size. So this shot is a proof of concept. I have set Stone's heighth back to 5'10 so Laurie can suprise him with the coffee shop. As we go we will be updating the thread. Chris is working on the animatics since he is the animation director of the short. We hope to present it soon but for now we are in the beginning stages. Steve

Gerry I believe Jody had an excellent model of the earth with textures and all. It might have been a few years back. Steve http://www.hash.com/forums/index.php?showt...38&hl=earth

Happy Birthday!

Yep I agree as well!

Glad to see you back. Welcome back Steve

Thanks Rodney, cleaning up alot of misplaced splines on the models and getting ready for the face rigs.

Hey Robert here is FakeAO in 17c. No issues so far

Has anyone used Jenpy FakeAO with Jason Hamptons TechnoCrane? Steve

I noticed in 17c the same project rendered AO considerable slower. In 17a rendered 8:53 i think and 17c 37 minutes. Has anyone played with AO in 17c? Steve reset it again and it has not finished yet and it is now 1:30 hours per frame.

Excellent that is one of my favorites! Steve

The happy couple who bought a coffee shop Steve Working on face rigging.

Happy birthday! Steve

Chris and I are starting our next project. It will focus around the coffee shop. We are building the background stories of Cupid's sick day and learning to be better animators. coffee.mp4

Simon You can also look at celtx desktop software, Chris and I are looking at using it for our next project. Steve

You got it Robert Steve

Thought I would start on new animation. Brought together I bunch of projects of the past. Cleaned them up and will begin my logo Steve

Happy Birthday Steffen Steve

The rear window project energized me to get things going again. I have been working on small things to help with the movement of the characters. I found issues with weights of some of the rigs I installed. Basically cleaning up things. I am doing a practice animation now. Lots of things going. I will start a new thread once I get further and get some critics

Gerry let me know i am back home now. If you need some one to render i am available Steve

Awesome David Steve

Happy Birthday Steve

I like that Gerry! Nicely done. When I get back I can render it for you on the farm? Steve

Rodney The biggest problem was on my part in the SVN adventure. I would rename a chor or file by using a number such as BillFace2. Now I have broken the revisioning process. Plus I would forget to add this to the list to committ to our repository. Now not only does Chris not have the updated model I have not saved the revised version. Most of the issues of SVN was a lack of knowledge and procedures on my part. Steve
