Hey, ya'll, I was doing some tests on Facial Expressions just using Bones w/a relatively simple sphere. I think with a bit more tweaking we can expect great things from this type of interface. I just wish that this had a dial-pose system, but who knows... someone may just think up a plug-in for some of the stuff. Kix, just a little trib to your smiley faces... ken

Thanks litst, I may be able to whip up a basic tuto for the stuff that I have done. I might want to try using the free stuff that Quarbon viewlet builder to put it together. We'll see what happens. ken

Looks cool! While I'm rather disappointed with the instability and bugs of the new code, the new features are very cool and desperately needed. I really hope we get a patch soon because I want my faith restored. I feel like we're back with Metacreations Version of C 1.0! -Kixcooldude.gif

I guess we always feel that way with new software. MS is the same way and yet we seem to have some faith restored with the coming of a SP or bugfix. C'est la vie ken

Recently, i've had the hardest time to play decently to GTA3 lately, and it's a GAME so it means you shouldn't have to dig into config stuff . So CS2 is not an exception . But frankly, it's been a while Carrara hasn't crashed on my system :) To Ken : i'm waiting for your boning tuto with impatience . Good luck with it ! If i find some other stuff that can be useful, be sure i'll post the links here . litst
