Potential buyer here. But exploring a bit, and I do plan on
downloading the demo and trying things out, thought I'd ask a few
questions first. My main interest in Realsoft is as a character
animation tool. I am a bit bothered at the lack of real detailed
information on this aspect of Realsoft, I have read reviews stating
that its complete and well implemented, but there seems little info. I
looked at the manual, but it all seemed very basic.
I'm also curious on the hair and cloth abilities. I know a new plugin
is coming out that will give this functionality, but I have yet to see
it released so I'm a bit wary of the reliability of that and I'm not
big on relying on external sources. I also know that Realsoft has a
simple softbody implementation and a particle based hair system. I am
curious on how controllable these are and whether they can produce
REALISTIC effects, most of the hair I've seen has not appeared very
realistic, I'm hoping this is due in part to shading and not the hair
itself. Can the included hair system be animated smoothly, and react
like real hair?
Well I think thats enough for now, I could ask questions all day.
Thanks.
Brian
