Fire & Dump Truck Mesh
5 messages in this thread
We are involved in a forensic animation and are looking for two meshs: a fire
truck and dump truck. We are aware of View Points meshs but are looking for
more detailed and cost effective meshs. Please reply if you have these meshes.
You realize that there's a free Viewpoint dumptruck on the World Creating
Toolkit, don't you? I've used it myself in a forensic piece.
Also, since you do forensic work, let me pitch our new product for forensic
animators. Tired of doing animaps for skid marks? Our new product, Make
Tracks, produces procedural skid marks without animaps. Take a look at our
demo flic in the IPAS library. Click on the tire, click on the road, link the
stand-in to the chassis, assign a color to the stand-in and enter the frames
over which you want the skids. *Poof*, done. Do all the tires independently if
you want, to show proper lock-up sequences.

Eric,
I have a few questions about your IPAS for skid marks. Will it work with MAX,
if not what will your upgrade policy be. What is the price of your IPAS, I
think list prices are OK on the forum. Any other helpful programs?
Eric, I maintain a list of forensic animators. It's in the "Index & Info"
library and its called "Forlst.txt if you would like to check it out. Maybe you
would like to add your name to the list?

Greetings,
Nothing developed for Rel 3/4 will work with MAX. Everything will have to be
rewritten. Since you asked I think it's OK to tell you – Make Tracks costs $70
plus shipping, handling, and tax. Our vendors are listed in a file called
'SISYPHUS.TXT' over in Take 5/Want Ads. No, there's no 'zero' missing. We
think triple digits for plug-ins is too much.
We will port Make Tracks – along with our other products – to MAX as soon as we
get MAX development versions. Upgrade fees will be about half the price of the
Rel 3/4 version. You may be interested in our unique upgrade policy: when we
port Solids Completer, Particles I, Make Tracks, Particles II, and our upcoming
unannounced products to MAX, all our registered users will pay ONE upgrade fee
– that being the fee for the most expensive product they own – to get MAX
versions of ALL the products they own. Sound good?
Watch for reviews of our products in upcoming issues of Planet Studio, 3D
Artist (I hope) and 3D Design.
I will d/l your list of forensic animators. Yes, please, add me to it when you
next update it: Eric Peterson/Sisyphus Graphics. For now, I have a different
hat on…

Eric,
I will dl the text file you mentioned. You certainly have a unique upgrade
policy for your users, I like what you have done there.
When you dl "forlst.txt" then you will see all the different fields there are
to fill in. Please keep all the headers, that way I won't have to retype them.
