Title: Tremulous the movie Pt.2 upgraded
Post by: Firstinaction on July 28, 2010, 04:04:54 pm
Ok so I figured out how to render the textures way better with normals on them. So the texture looks crazy. Tell me what you think. This is just a first part of prt.2 prt1 was just the intro. This is the 2cnd part of the movie. I still need help with it so just ask if you want to join me. for fun. and animation practice.   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PyYLTQpAHg
 So if you want more practice in animation I can help you and you help me by making this movie with me.

Is he on stilts? Is he trying to scare away a cougar? Do his armpits smell? Is he doing a ballerina impression?

I'm really confused as to what's going on there.

The animation is nice, but please, don't post any more videos until you've made significant progress (this includes having some kind of plot).

Also, read my post before you whine about it. Since it's obvious you won't do that, let me put it this way:
Nobody is going to take you seriously if you can't get a basic grasp on simple forum etiquette. Nobody on this forum is so important that they can get away with posting a new thread for every single time they make a minor change to whatever they're doing (except the developers, and only because that "whatever they're doing" is Tremulous). You're not any different. By making lots of completely unnecessary threads, you're wasting our time and the host's resources. Keep everything in one thread or nobody will take you seriously.
On the other hand, if the conversation goes too far off-topic (boostershrimp! :booster:), it means you're too late and nobody cares anyway, in which case, you'll just have to deal with it. The fix for that is to wait until you have something to show. In other words, don't make a new thread until you've made a lot more progress.
Kk?

OK So i have been working on this part all night. for like 3 hours.Im The only reason why im just showing parts is because  Im just showing you guys whats happening so far in the movie. Then When its done I will have it realeased in a full movie. IDK how long it is going to be.  Im going to create a websight for people to sign up on it. For the help.  Tell me what you think. Feedback is much appreciated.

Hmm. Cant you at least make maps without zfighting? It's been in both videos and really detracts from the quality.

Oh God, that was good. I wasn't expecting it, still has me laughing.
9/10 camera-work
4/10 animation
5/10 lighting
1/10 content

    Much as I like your effort, I gotta agree with the others in that; you really should just ask an admin or someone to delete all your threads, and you consolidate all of them into one tread (call it Fr1rst16's Blender Stuff or something). Then just post in that one thread from then on. It'd make us more willing to look it over.

Three hours???
What the heck?
It takes an hour a second tops for high quality animation.
Get mancandy and animate him since he is a great rig and great animation is from a great rig.

Intuition. It comes with being online for a while.

Google "Mancandy Blender 3d rig"!

He is the best rig out there,
you can do simple animation or have him talking very realistically with his nice facial rigging.

I would not bother HD, unless your using megabyte textures,
rendering a terminator with a santclause hat like I did or something ... I'd keep it lighter and forget HD unless you have nice textures and such....

Firstinaction.
It works but I'd try to do some more key frames,
have some filler to build up the anticipation and have parts of the body lag since they aren't robots.

Your work occasionally makes my stomach churn and I get slightly sick with all honestly,
that one with the new alien tremulous model with the music did it to me :(
Do a ton of mini learning runs, learn Blender inside and out.
Then 6 months later pick soemthing, get good at it then get good at another skill.

I've done CG for like 4 years,
just tons of little learning runs and I'm hoping to finally put out some nice work after all of this..
