Quanon · 07-10-2006, 06:25 PM

Hey , I've read a lot of threads about moddeling for JA . So I see I need something called Carcass and something like .xsi and all , but everything seems to be made for max 5 or 6 . SO would these importer / exporters work in max 8 or does anybody knows they already made newer versions ???

Got milkshape to but looks like everybody shoot the program through the head for moddeling

Lol

Thanx for the replies .

-You need this exporter:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/d...n.zip?download
(just find a suitable mirror and download)

-The tools from the SDK (carcass, assimilate and modview)

I got them new and fresh

Yikes the head is overwhelming me , so do you do head first because there seems to be more bones in the head then in the whole body ?? IT looks very confusing YIKES !!!

No, you should read the specific weighting section in complete jk2 guide. Only 9 bones are required to animate a face, of course everything has to line up with the bones or else it'll be a disaster

.

Note that it's not required to weight the face for animation, so you can just use the cranium for the face/skull.

Yea I'll try that skull first. ( first learn to walk before you try run

comes to my mind) ANyway thanx for the advise .
