Guy what you are doing is amazing and I totally support it.

In fact I would love you to do a more indepth tutorial on how you made the opening video.  I will learn from it and I'm sure others would.

Also we are making motion pictures, that means that the images dictate our interest.  I'm one of the first to argue about a good story, but without amazing visuals you are not going to get noticed.

Keep up the amazing work, I look forward to more.

Thanks

Cape!

That post two posts above... = best post ever.

That's why I continue to make suggestions.

I know you guys don't EVER see anything I make so to most it seems like I don't really do anything, but I assure you I run lots of test in iClone and other software as well so I'm still doing stuff on the back end.

Indeed, and I would like to add that I really like iClone, actualy.

Despite my rants and wining, wich are biased because I'm used to professional tools, I think iClone is right on the spot and they did a great job to simplify ( too much for my test, but.. ;) ) the complexity of the underlying processes.

I think the way Avatars are organised with their sub-parts and materials is really great, plus if you count on CloneCloth & CloneBot you have a great latitude of customization.

I'm agree with you regarding the 'tip of the iceberg' and I believe the rest of the iceberg can be unleashed with only 10% or 20% more effort on iClone features, inlcuding a way for us to script/code automated tasks ( like placing set blocks proceduraly, etc.. ) and do procedural animations.

I've endorsed the 'mission' to push iClone as far as I can with my professional background to show to the iClone developers what is really missing or the real issues that have to be adressed in order to reach a higher technical level of quality.

I'm not sure they will listen to me, but this is my way of helping the community and at least I'll have done something. The rest is in their hands. ;)

Cheers,
Guy.

That's great and I agree... as long as it doesn't get overly complicated... I opened 3DS Max and I'm like.... wtf is this? Maya is actually more intuitive because I can kind of tell what things do by looking at the icons... most of the times.

And at Capemedia... yes I meant your's.

I normally just make tech demos and "sparkly graphics" because my character designing skills aren't the best YET. If I had some really great characters to start with, I'd be set and I know there are some good ones out there... just nothign I can incorperate yet I don't think.

Hello,




Thanks a lot for your kind words and support ( and aknzrdude, Cathy, blue, Cris, gizmo, Dulci, zuijlen, Paumanok, and all the others I forgot, thanks ! ).




I would love to create tutorials but right now I don't have much time and also as english is not my native tongue, I can't really speak english well so either you'll get bored or you wont understand a thing ;)

I'm trying to create a short movie right now for submission to the Sci-Fi contest, but I'm unsure I'll be able to finish it in time. Will see. Not a big deal though, just for me to work 'under pressure' while experimenting everything I can until the deadline.

After that I'll look into it, and find a way to create tutorials for iClone with iClone ( perhaps with synthesized voices, or something.. ).




I'll try !

Cheers,
Guy.

Hey Guy-

There are a ton of seasoned voice actors among us who would be glad to lend their voices to your projects. I should know - I'm one of them. Don't hesitate to ask.

Cathy :hehe:

Just click on the graphic to go there.

Agreed. I'm willing to help you if you need it as well.

Taking iClone to the next level of quailty is something I am fully into.
