not sure about the gui for the person making the item/creature etc, but would love to know how they make things and what software they use etc.. lol.

Yep Glitch is a Daz studio critter, some of them can be used in poser too, but Daz studio unlike poser is free. You can do a lot in it, the first image I posted of the elf was fully done in Daz studio, back ground and all. You put hair, clothing (if you want clothing on them), scenes, poses etc in there. I didn't need to move glitch over to Bryce I just wanted to see if I can do it seen as it has that feature.

That's way cruel of them! HUGS! I would be bloody livid had it been me.

Very cool. You know, you could really tell a story with Glitch. He's no Balrog but he's cute as a button.

I guess that's the problem, I do not understand where Poser fits in.

Have you tried doing some animation?

I got another called Kudie bug or something as well but for some reason when I open it in Daz it says its a poser file and when I search it arrives see through, not sure if it's meant to be though.. will have to go read the blurb for him.

Am sure can put Terragen images into Bryce.. am sure I have seen some on 3d commune that say Terragen tweaked in Bryce etc, and via versa, you can make terrain maps in Bryce and use them in Terragen .

Okay just got a message from someone I don't know asking me if I am me, by my real name.. oo mind boggles.. wonder if I know them in rl or via a forum or something lol!

Maybe it's my FF account's sock-puppet user! Don't trust that guy!

It looks like they are using a clearcoat on the material for Kudie Bug.

cool and good idea - with you I'm quite happy for you to use presets hadn't thought about making brushes

did you do that one

No. I could do the rig but not the gui. I found those images by googling 'maya rig gui'.

Beliria wrote: .mat file in Bryce from an FF texture!

Good work. What did it take to do it?
So let's see something with that .mat applied! What texture did you use?

think I still need to figure out the uploading texture bit because can't play with them in the lab mixing, just keeps going to the image texture function which I used to upload the texture. Then when you have uploaded them you save them in the library, then export it as a .mat file and bingo you have your mat file.


Oh the picture above the sphere is two toned because I put the cylinder shape part inside so I could see the transparency better.

lol will go look at your grunge filter.. not sure if I have downloaded it already or not.. um

lol! Hasn't so far.. but then I only downloaded it last night and got side tracked in SL.

We still talking about the filter?

ronviers wrote: Now you're just acting out.

hehe

Thing is there are loads of cool filters and little gem's that I think most of us miss because of how many filter's there are to pick from. That and download them and then forget which part of the library they can be found in. I kinda like the naming like what Stevie does, makes them far easier to find or if there is some way to set the library up that rather than filter names you can set it to creator name, mind I probably should start using the frav function.. um that and get more sleep some time

bummer - nurofen or some other strong pain relief might be the only answer and they don't work for me when it's eye strain and some other types of headaches - I'll cross my finger for you

Quote
Carl wrote: nurofen or some other strong pain relief

So far, my attempts to get rid of it, which consist of coffee and debugging a mel script, have all failed. If it keeps up I will get some pain pills but a goods night sleep will probably fix it.

Carl wrote: what ever happened to that version we played with that look like the ultimate super grunge

That was an very cool filter but we never got it ready for prime time. I think it would take a lot of work to make it submittable.

But good for debugging script - plus I remember my dreams better if I drink coffee.
