Re: Faceware in Softimage

is not great, but at least they usually reply within the day, so at least you'll get a reply, even if its late at night :) Try again with Retargeter to uninstall and reinstall it a couple of times, maybe it'll work or maybe they'll find a solution for the problem Nicolas 2014/1/17 Nuno Conceicao

This is one quite handy tool in 3dsmax 2014 that should be simple enough to implement in ICE, but apparently not in the almost featureless Softimage 2014. Was wondering if anybody actually made something like this using ICE kinematics or in some other form...

Re: Who Uses Arnold Anyway ? an appeal to fans

I might try to guess some people try to set up the fur using transparency. Although it helps making it look softer, i managed to get quite nice results on my test without any transparency at all. On Tue, Mar 19, 2013 at 4:10 AM, Raffaele Fragapane raffsxsil...@googlemail.com wrote: At some

Re: Surface Flowing Particles

then or not? if the 'hand' or surface is moving or deforming you could also account for a velocity force from the closest location as well. point position is not the only thing you can get from a location. On 29 January 2013 18:13, Nuno Conceicao nunoalexconcei...@gmail.comwrote: This actually
