To Everyone

I spoke to Matt and he told me that hes not here at the moment but i just want to say if i get everything tomorrow I would like everyone to get together in labs on Friday at between 8-9am and spend all morning making/putting all the scenes together on the one computer so that everyone know whats going on and what the scenes will look like and shit before rendering. This is only for the fact that we spend no time together as a group and this is a group project so at least we can do something group worthy when were putting shit together so everyones in the loop and no one can say (as I have said to myself multiple times during this module) what the fucks going on, no one told me!

Fog Prt2

just what the fog looks like from the other shots do apologise again if this play blast is skewed and shit!

-Sunny

Fog

The Fog in the rescue/ falling scenes doesnt look too awesome in the play blast so i put some renders up underneath itll look cool once i also know how the lighting will be so i can tweak it together!

Theres a line in this shot i know i dunno if anyone notices but ill sort it but everything looks ok in the shot above

-Sunny

Rhys and Dan

put this up for the lols erm ground smashing and balcony will be done by today then the fog will be done first thing tomorow so im ready for rendering by mid day tomorrow all i need now is Rhys and Dans work or theres no point on starting rendering so boy i need ur stuff as soon as so i can put all the final scenes together and get everything sorted ready for rendering then compositing!

Rhys

Rhys have u check this out for the floor in the room i saw something last night whn i was in bed so i gave it like 2 mins of my time and i got this effect without making anything all shaders but u could plug ur texture in it, its just a normal plane and maya does all the maps for u Bump, Displacement,Spec ect. got this effect in like i swear 120 seconds so if u played round with it for like an hour we could have more effective textures!

i did a quik glass test for just seeing if i could get glass to smash easily i got this done in less than 5 mins so i reckon this should be cool to put in the door when breaking the balcony.

City Design Fix

I had to change the main building a little because it would have interfered with the falling animation sequence. So the building has been [crudely] mirrored so the falling sequence has plenty of clear space. I have only moved the building and not the room so hopefully everything will line up fine.

Matt

Need the pose for the picture mate if we have no pose we have no picture and id like to render it as soon as so we can get that little peice in so if u can can i get the scene or something so we can work on that mate
-Sunny

Andy

You going to be in uni tomorrow mate i need some animtion help with the balcony breaking if u can come in for like 4 or 5 so i dont need u too early or anything

Cape Or Not To Cape!

As this picture and the name of the post says im having real problems applying a cape to blake it works alright in some scenes but in others its a twat not gona lie this is a serious question and if theres no comment im just gona come to a decision my self im happy if some one else know how to do it but when i spoke to dan and rhys earlier they seem like they dont have much more knowledge than me on the whole thing but its wasting valuble time and well it could be spent better so place your votes now people

Meshes for Sunjay

Here's all the hair meshes, they were resized when I put them onto the rigs tho, so these aren't the correct size.

As for the character meshes, Dan posted the downloads for them a while ago, after he unwrapped them. His posts are on this page http://team-anything.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2012-02-20T12:08:00Z&max-results=7&start=14&by-date=false I'm not 100% certain that there werent any changes made to the meshes after that, but I dont remember making any changes, so I think they're the same.

Hope that's what you wanted.

Little preview of what's to come. :')

What Do You Think?

Havent Posted work on here in ages but i was working on this when i wrote the last post so i thought id might as well show u as im logged on!

 

This clouds the shit btw

Clouds Sky can be changed with ease if needed but i like it

Ground dust on blake when he lands needs a bit of tweaking but it features for a whole 1.5 -2 seconds so i think it looks cool for now

These 2 are just dust tests they look cooler when not rendered which is something i thought i would never say!

-Sunny

Question

What are we using in that Photo frame beacause well we cant really use the pic thats in there at the moment?

-Sunny

Eye Textures

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/50796487/Green%20Eye.png

I edited this post because i found it ridiculous your eye textures are ok and usable but y have you done them without taking into consideration the UV maps at all i cant do anything with these
-Sunny

Pics with the lighting so far + textures and new hairstyles

The Wifes fixed/updated hairstyle

And an unfinished attempt at making Cecils hair a bit more scruffy

I also got the wifes hair into some of the shots but broke my constraints at some point. finally got them fixed but been up about 33 hours and need sleep. See you guys tomorrow
