jon Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 in a word: hooks. consider doing a few tutorials before attempting to create a face. it's one of the hardest things to model well in any system. -jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short answer... you use "hooks" (covered in TaoA:M booklet) to go from dense to light meshes. Have you done all the modeling exercises in TaoA:M? You'd have the answer to this question already. Probably just as easy to continue modeling the face to include a back of the head and also how i take model fiels and put them into a m a non-A:M model? in a new model window righ-click>wizards>import. Most non-A:M models are poor candidates for importing, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heyvern Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 no i mean a a m file that i want to put into am Same answer: Right click, import model, select AM model. If you import this way into an open model window the mesh and bones are imported "inside" that model and there is no eternal link. If you right click on the objects folder and import a model it loads the model as a new model "object" and is linked to the model selected. p.s. I agree with the others, do all the tutorials. So many of these basic questions are answered. -vern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
