Aram Bauman said:Yeah, i have been looking for a tutorial on the effect you have with the floor tiles breaking up. Im guessing that you have them in an array and use them as hard body objects and the collision objects for the falling body which makes it do that. Im looking to do a sidewalk breaking apart in that exact same way.
Yeah, the flash file is taking forever to load and I havent watched it all yet.
You should have a downloadable linke also.
You gave me some ideas to try though until you give us answers.
manglerBMX said:you call yourself a 3d newbie? wtf? it was almost a perfect biped model, i couldnt really judge the rigging, but i could tell it was rigged. and blend shapes with the facial smile? thats def no amatuer move. the compositing and lighting was nothing short of pro quality. your modeling is supurb so this really makes me question yourself as a 3d newb. i've been in 3d for almost 2 years now and you're leagues above me. not a noob.
i'm pretty sure the exploding tile floor was done with dynamics. and i'm wondering how you did the extrusion of the biped at the begining?
