LIGHTBEING

ummm exacly how do i attach the bone light on the square patch? i know how to attach a bone to a model but the bone light doesnt flash on and off to attach it to the model :s thx paul

hi, i want to light up, a square patch, i know how to make a light bone, and i know how to make a klieg light, but i need the whole suare patch to light up without anything els around it lit up, i can light up the patch with the klieg light but it looks like a spot light is on it. i also know i can make the whole patch glow, but i dont want it to glow, i just want the square patch to be lit, can any one help? thx paul

ummm, yes i did the tutorials, but maybe i missed something. i have a parent bone for the ship, i added a light bone also, the problem is...im to touch the parent bone to make it blink then make the lightbone to be the child, but it doesnt blink :s "i cant seem to assign the light bone to any control points. "which tutorial tells me how to do this ? thx

wow thx thats helps alot! im in the action window, i have set the light where i want it over the dome to shine on the letters, but a still cant seem to lock the light any where on the model. im trying to figure it out but its takeing me too long :s how do i attach the light on the model in tha action window or do i have to do it in the choreography ?

mmm i aimed my light to the model to attach it and it doesnt seem to work :s it seems it will only attach on the bone but it wont when i move the model around, the light still stays in the same place. what am i doing wrong? thx paul:)

how do i lock a light on a model?? im making the starship enterprise, i want to put lights on it to shine on the letters: uss enterprise 1701-a then animate the ship, flying. thx

ok, got the bulb "but" the bulb stays on the floor, i can move it anywhere but... i cant seem to move it up and down, what am i doing wrong? i tryed about 10 minutes

hey thx for ur reply but i dont know how to add a bulb to the chor could u tell me how?

where can i find a good tutorial about light reflecting on a object? example: i want to shoot a rupulsor ray out of ironman's hand, i want the light to reflect on his hand thx

Mannnn they look great!! u really have an eye for detail! i was wondering... can u explain if u have time, how HDRI reflections work? that ironman picture that u have with the repulsor ray comming out of his hand is really coooooooollllllllllllllll looking ! thx, lightbeing

Wow! the detail is great! and the lighting... wow! where can i find a good tutorial about lighting? and thx it looks great!

hello, ahh ur right about the hip pods, thats why i put bones in them, i can make them swivel or go out a little. hey, could i see ur modle? show me some pics. thx!

ooops ur right, too many splines, the mask itself has 329 patches, i was counting the whole head befor, still that may be too many, im still new at this, the mask was the first thing i made.

Thx 4 the reply guys, it means alot. Hey i also saw that fight with Ironman and the Hulk in that comic book too! The patch count in the mask is 828 [attachmentid=18987][attachmentid=18986] [attachmentid=18988]

The goal is to make a vidio named: "IRONMAN vs. THE HULK" Iknow, I know... Ironman is no match for the Hulk, but theres a intresting twist at the end, I hope every Ironman fan will like it. Total Patches so far: 4172 any suggestions or comments will be appreciated [attachmentid=18968] [attachmentid=18970] [attachmentid=18971] [attachmentid=18972] [attachmentid=18973] [attachmentid=18975] [attachmentid=18976] [attachmentid=18977]
