Actually it is a matter of a switch going off in your brain. That is how it was for me. I call it my epiphany and that is exactly what it was. Just like a light comes on. A combination of learning the program you choose to use, getting your mind around working in 3 dimensions on a 2 dimensional display and grasping the concept of turning a primative into an organic shape. The latter was my biggy

no that other render site has no kissing on the lips anyway. LOL

I agree with pjz99. I was well over 30 when I started trying to get my head around modeling. No tutorials on the web during the early 90s. Raydream studio was the only modeler I could afford. Like I said the epiphany came 6 months ago, after almost 20 years I can model almost anything now.

Still not much of an edge modeler. but I can do faces box modeling then retopologize in Zbrush, so it's a wash anyway.

I've used Hexagon for over 5 years, since DAZ purchased the program and ran it onsale for $1.99. I had an epiphany 6 months ago and now can model just about anything I choose to. I am enjoying modeling the human form now, which had eluded me for so long, and loving every moment of it.

LOL ok just wondering, I know there is a system I bought for DAZ Studio but haven't heard of another one.

Laurie, what program you use to Rig? Just curious.

there was a japanese site with BVH files, but they had extra body parts in them. Poser just ignored the extra ones.

you would need a modeler. Like Wings3D, Blender or Hexagon. I like Hexagon the best, it is not free but very reasonable.

probably already done. just hasn't made it to youtube yet. LOL

I would be lost in that one. Know any resources for how to work with bvh in C#?

you don't need the xbox for the motion capture, you use your usb ports on your computer. LOL that is the hack. LOL

teach that dog to run in place

use the options on your virus checker to ignore it and allow it.

True, forgot this is international now. LOL

bank accounts are insured for up to 250K now, so I wouldn't worry about it. if something goes missing it isn't that hard to get it back.
