#A wish…
Message #162059
I'm not sure if you can do this in R3 or not, I haven't found it yet. It would be nice to be able to "justify" objects (or faces, verticies, etc…) in relation to the viewport. For example: Modify/Object/Justify/Center "Select first object to justify" "Select second object to justify" (can…
Dem damn bones!
Message #137151
Hello once again… I tried what you said with better results, however not satisfactory. I seem to be having trouble getting the animation to look how I want. I have spent quite a bit of time with bones and bend-aid, but I am either doing something all wrong, or I…
Hello again… I shall try what you have explained. I knew I was making this more work than I should. I do know how morphing works, I had just thought that bones would be making actual morph targets for each frame, not just the ones that were key framed. As…
I appreciate your input, but I am assigning bones1 to the "mother of all bones" as David puts it. Thanks anyway. Greg.
Hello, and thanks again for the reply. The track info shows next to nothing for all objects, except their original position. No morphing, positioning, nada. Now, let me see if this helps. When I create a "boned" file, what I have to do (I am only assuming here) that I…

#Dem Bones!
Message #135577
Thanks for the reply, but perhaps, I was not clear with the problem I am having. The morph objects are definitely there, I can see them, and (of course) they are listed in the object list. The trouble is with Step 3 (BONES3). I am assuming (please tell me if…
Dem Bones!

Help! I seem to be having trouble with the Bones IPAS routines. I believe I am doing everything correct (step by step per docs) but I am getting no results! I'll admit, I haven't worked with IPAS routines much, but I (think) I have been doing everything correctly. The problem…

So many M's! Say… why not M Animations? Works for me, I'd hire him. Greg.
64 ++ RAM… (sorry, too new to know quotes yet) Yea, we got one comp w/ 80 megs on it. It'll never get used by the dopes who work on it though. Greg.
This one's really to ALL… Thank you for the quick responses. Help like this is one of the MAIN reasons I joined Cserve. After posting my message last night, I did do a LONG OVERDUE cleanup on my hard drive (SCANDISK). I have also increased my uncompressed drive to 36…
The turbo switch is fine (c'mon guys). I only have 8 megs of RAM, so of course I page to disk on EVERYTHING (it's only a hobby for me). I haven't checked to see if 3ds sees all of it though. I do notice a LOT more disk activity than…

Message #130832
Greetings, all. Perhaps someone can answer me this: A few weeks ago I had an unfortunate incident occur at my house. While in the midst of rendering a 600 frame animation (about 30 hours or so) my 5 year old daughter decided to help daddy turn off all the lights…
Hear Hear! I agree totally, 3DS should still have the option of running from DOS. I personally detest windows, although I have to live in it at work. At home, I use it mainly for the File Manager, and of course, Cserve. If I'm working totally in a graphics environment,…
Actually, my WALLET thinks it's too expensive for a hobby, for now at least. Hopefully in the future I will be able to get a return on my investment. Thanks to all for the welcomes, I finally have people to talk to! (At least, that actually know what I'm talking…
#New to Forum
Message #130068
Hello all, thought I'd let someone know I was here. Just wanted to say what a great forum you got here. I bought my computer specifically to get 3ds, and got on Compuserve specifically for this forum. Kinda expensive for a hobby, but hey, what good is money if you…
