does anyone remember a freebie utility that you could use to map a face and then build a model from it? it works a lot like the tutorial from Duanes at the toybox but it was a utiliy that did the same.....if anyone remembers this please send me a link or let me know where i might find it..... it was here at renderosity about 5 years ago..i know that was a long time ago but....if anyone could help i would appreciate it.

theres these tutorials... http://www.cakeone.com/c1%20pages/Tut%20Face.htm http://home.hiwaay.net/~mhongser/art/PoserFace/ but free software ? The best I've seen to make realistic faces is Digimask, but you'd have to buy their sdk to make .objs and "bolt" that head onto a figure.

Pinky - you left the lens cap of your mind on again.

Oh come on. like *you* didnt think of it.

(one can only resist silly impulses for so long when taunting threads resurface)

lol...didnt think of it at first but.......hey least she has a good body :)

I beive Trinity is refering to CyberMesh an old Photoshop grayscale reading filter that outputted .obj mesh... I don't think it is on my drive or archives... It worked not one bit that I could tell... terrible noise not to mention overal spherical distortion though some old Poser book recomended it, but as I recall that book recomended a number of impractical things. Amorphium also has a "super displacement" filter that translates grayscale onto mesh but again I don't know that usable mesh would result. My solution is to texture a very low resolution face like the P2 Man or make a smooth mask like the Spidey mask that out somewhere and mapp onto that. Recently I tested planer mapping on Narcises' Nea which is a smothed out P4 in development and it worked nicely and had expression and shape morphs in the bargin.. Nea is a devistatingly good figure. Remapping the $5 or so Eternal Posette found here in the market place might work for female.
