    • RE: Rigging a Quadruped

      Really nice work on this. I'm particularly impressed by the clothing on your model of Sam too.

      Perhaps you could put together a rigging tutorial?

    • RE: Comments

      The right hand side looks real but something seems off on the left wall - possibly too much lighting. It may work better with the window as the main light source.

    • RE: New website

      A nice clean site - the background suits it.
      My only suggestion is to make the 'home, about us, contact us' text beside the buttons also clickable - people generally expect underlined text to be part of the link

      When you log in do you remember to tick the box "Log me in automatically each visit"?

    • RE: Removing materials

      You can remove individual textures by bringing up the Materials menu, selecting 'in model' (the House button) and then right click and deleting the textures one by one - I guess that could take a while if you want to remove them all though.

      Does the Mac version not use Ctrl + T to 'select none'?

    • RE: Unbelievable! Extreme moves..

      Yep, very impressive - if you want to look for more of it it's called free running or Parkour (in french), there was a documentary on it awhile back.

    • RE: Radius challenge

      double click the top face, then select follow me and click on the fillet. You'll then have to delete any excess faces around the top.

      p.s. the fillet in your model does not have a face - try making it again.

    • RE: How To Prevent "Ragged Edges"?

      Also try intersecting the tube at a more vertical angle to the sphere rather than leaving it horizontal.

    • RE: Scaling uniformly using VCB

      @gaieus said:

      By pressing down the Ctrl key while doing the operation. (You cannot enter anything into the VCB while pressing the key but right after you release it and enter the value and hit enter, it will jump there).

      You learn something new every day! I've spent so much time trying to ctrl/center to the right value, now I know I don't have to do it manually, yeah!

    • RE: Work in progress: Golfcourse

      Very nice - I think the trees are just the right transparency. My only suggestions would be to tone down the intensity of the colours a bit and the edges of the bunkers could maybe do with hiding/softening.

    • Looking for Lambretta

      I've beeeen looking for a model of a Lambretta (scooter) as my Dad has bought one and is doing it up and it would be handy to have a model of it to try out paint jobs and use on a birthay card for him - so far I've only found models of Vestas, so has anybody made or come across a Lambretta (I think it's a 125)? Ta.

    • RE: Shading options?

      If you don't want lighting to have any effect open the window>Shadows menu and select 'use sun for shading' and put the dark slider up to 100.
