Hello iCloner!

Thanks a lot, jenlonge! I really appreciate all of your hard work to put this together! :)

My pleasure:D

I've downloaded some of the CMU files, and they look about as good as one would expect, given the varying quality in the source files: not always perfect, but sometimes usable. There's no problem with that. "Sometimes usable" is still sometimes usable!

I looked at some other files marked "sample," and the results are very intriguing. I hit the limit on unregistered downloads and now I'm eager to become a member and get a larger sense of what's available.

iClone users should be grateful for the contributions of both TheTrailerSpark and NewEventsOnline. You can't animate without motions!

Thank you:D

The CMU files are all over the map, both in terms of quality, but also in terms of suitability for storytelling. There is a lot of nonsense, such as silly walks and shootup-gamer stuff, that I will never be able to use for quality animation.

But then there are motions that provide the raw material for real acting. Take for example, 714-12, translated to VNS at TheTrailersPark. It's called "the thinker."

In the course of an afternoon, I was able to build upon it to create this:



Thanks, jenlonge!
