I would have to say no, we had an animator on the job at one point and there were still problems. For someone who doesn't know how to use Max and is unsure of the work flow when importing a character into DX, it simply wouldn't work.chh wrote: You're right, it does sound tedious. However, is it something simple that someone could do if they lacked even rudimentary knowledge of these animation programs?
If the programs are available, and the protocol not too complex, I'm willing to put in some time to help complete these animations.
Mr.Caravaggio:
The process required was always apparent yes but not all the possible errors, you make one mistake and you have to pretty much start over again, which happened with the last animator, he ended up redoing JC about 3 or 4 times. Just to point out, it wasn't his skill or lack of understanding but more to the point that you can't foresee every error or quirk that might occur in the process.
I would love to see updated characters in DX and that's why I uploaded the character models for people to use, just incase someone is willing to give it a try but I'm not expecting anything to come of it.
About the hair bulge;
UnrealEngine1 doesn't use Alphas unfortunately, it uses masking, which is a million times worse heh.
