remodeling:
Hexagon, Milkshape, cinema 4d
Texturing:
Photoshop
UVMapper Pro
Irfanview

I think you will have to replace the mesh with your new mesh in fragmotion. We are workign on getting that process figures out.

The face is a quickie, I'll make Eva Longoria soon!

Ok. I think I am beginning to realize that I want to remodel the head quite a bit. As you can see, I am getting there with the texture, but there is just something a bit odd about the shape of the head. I cant put my finger on it, I think it's the bottom of the nose, as well as the height of the mouth from the chin. I am going to try to do a little alteration, and then bring her back in and get the animation sync'ed. If I can achieve the new hairstyle, I will be able to add a bone for the pony tail, and the drudge work will begin, moving through all 2498 frames and manually moving the ponytail.

For anyone who cares, I was able to export from hexgon with another level of subdivision for a hugely smoothed character. I was impressed that even though it was subdivided, it retained the uv mapping when rendereed in carrara.

This tickled me
Poor Aiko - Ilove the expressions on her face as the mesh progesses

I can post a copy of the high-res original for normal mapping if you like - shes got no hair though - or boots for that matter

Simon, that would be great. I am using multiple resources to create these, Playboy, Penthouse, etc. Just kidding. Seriously, that would be nice. I am learning uvmapper pro right now. I am having to jump through hoops to make it work right now. I know I need to break down and get max for game development, but I am holding out for making my fragmotion<->Milkshape<->Hexagon<->Cinema 4d combination to work.

To remodel and re-animate I am trying this:
In Milkshape: Import the .x file, Export to .obj.
In Hexagon: Import the .obj file, remodel, export as .obj.
In Milkshape: Import the .obj file, export as .x file.
I am doing test renders in carrara because it is quick and the renderer looks pretty good. My Cinema 4d is much faster, but I am bored with it at the moment. Was Milkshape the entity editor as I have heard?

Yeah there are too many options. We need to make a definitive guide for each step, i.e. milkshape to fpsc, fragmotion to fpsc, etc.

Newest one. I went back to a little earlier texture I did. She is a little meaner now. I will save the nice pictures for the hostage models I am working on! The hair is in there for reference, you can still see the old hair. I am tryign to work out how to get the new mesh dropped in on top of the old mesh, theoretically, it should be able to use the skeleton, we will see.

Like I said, I really want to use this for a cutscene, so I am hoping scripted animations will play ok and smooth, considering there will not be much else going on. I have a little magazine coming out about fpsc, keep your eyes open for it.

No changes to the neck yet. It's the stock mesh with 1 level of subdivision. It's a challenge, but I think we can get a big variety of characters with simply skinning.

One thing, as far as I can tell, the torso and legs are 2 seperate models. Like an action figure where the legs connect inside the hip area. I also suspect that the knee pads are for more than decoration. It may be that the kneepads actually assist the animation process by covering the deformations by the skeleton. Simon?
