Mechanic

My CO has a cool avatar of a running dog that transforms into a P51.

I always wanted one of a ghost that morphs into a yak or la.

Option 2 would be a Hawk that does the same.

If your interested that is.

On the whole souls thing. If your going to sell it, at least sell it to the devil like Wilbuz did. I mean get SOMETHING for it.  :)

Would it be possible to take the prop behind the pirate skull, and make it spin up and then slow back down?


BTW, you have any websites references that tell have to do this? The whole avi thing is like dark magic to me...

edit: hmmm, doesnt spin as fast as it did in the construction stage, maybe the net doesnt like 50 frames/second animations :)

Prop looks great, but the skull movement......I dunno, looks vaguely obscene somehow.....:lol



Maybe, could you leave the skull still, and spin up the prop to a blur? Could just stop cold instead of the gradual slowdown thing...

yeah i know what you mean about the movement :)

its very hard to place a skull cut out over 120 frames in exactly the same place, os i figured a moving one would be better, but i agree its not.

will sort that by some kind of overlay thing.




Anyone who has requested an avatar so far (including you 68parker) will have one posted from them by this sunday. everyone else has to wait till next week.

was not expecting much interest, swaped already
:confused:


if only my real life business had so many quotes out i would be rich.






ALSO: do a search for Gif contruction set pro  if you fancy trying your own hand at it. its freeware and fully fuctional and even a mook lik eme figured it out in a few minutes.
