I asked this question in the artists forums but it's still unresolved. I used the Braybaker script many times to bake a high poly mesh features on to a low poly mesh for in game use. The technique involved giving the low-poly UV-mapped mesh a transparent material. The low poly mesh was placed at the...

Picture a scene with a soccer/foot-ball player and a ball. He runs while dribbling a ball and then passes the ball to another player who does something else with it. To animate this you can attach the ball to a bone and animate the run-and-dribble as an action but it gets ugly when you want to pass ...

The problem we have is that the Max and Maya exporters create animation sequence files so that the animations can be reused in game for different models as long as they have the same bone structure and naming convention. Creating a model in Blender wont let you use all those nice pre-existing animat...

Thanks, just tried it and it works with keyframes going into the action editor just like a bone.

But it only works with mesh object, not curves or anything else.

When using Blender to create models and animations for The Torque Game Engine, the exporter creates animations which are not compatible with models produced in 3DS Max with the same bone naming convention. This incompatibility is purely because of this difference in axis between Blender and Max and ...

When using Blender to create characters for 3rd party game engines or just animations in general, it is usually desirable to create IK targets using things like Nurbs circles around the feet or waist or shoulders to click on and animate. Currently the keyframes for the nurbs IK targets will get stor...

It looks interesting, but a quick look at how it works shows that your blend file gets distributed to those computers which do renders.

To me thats too much of a security risk for any serious projects.

I know many people use LAN rendering with Blender which is great if you have access to a local network of PC's. Doing it via the internet is usually not an option because the current network render solutions do their renders on a frame by frame basis which means you will be tieing up each remote com...

Jimbo, I also tried to compile with VC8 and never got beyond GP_GHOST module which gave many linker errors. I don't know of anyone who has actually gotten it to compile using those project files. I switched to using the Scons system as is recommended on the Blendr site and got it to compile using Sc...

I compiled the latest Blender from CVS using Scons and VC8. The only problem I had was finding it necessary to change the LCGDIR entry in win32-vc-config.py to point to the full path of my blender\doc\windows location. The default #.. bla entry did not work. Anyway, I saw that someone had compiled a...
