Depends on how good you make them.

erm yes, i didn't mean to be demeaning or mean to the creator of the concept, its a great piece for modeling, but it doesnt lend itself well to many people trying to make it, as well... as someone stated, its a tree, and no matter how many you make they will all look pretty much exactly the same.

You're wrong, Chobo. There are MANY ways to do it. Just use your creativity and talent to realize what's the best way to do it, and I'm pretty sure you will.

Here is the real challenge: export the model correctly.

It's an challenge indeed. When I try to export my model (To check if the animation is alright) I only get data about what animation when, but no object data, the MDL looks like this:

Quote:
// 'DeX Version: 0.185m
Version {
FormatVersion 800,
}
Model "Burnt Ancient" {
BlendTime 150,
}
Sequences 1 {
Anim "Walk" {
Interval { 63999, 127999 },
}
}
Textures 1 {
Bitmap {
Image "",
ReplaceableId 1,
}
}
Materials 1 {
Material {
Layer {
FilterMode None,
static TextureID 0,
}
}
}

you need to select the model before you try to export it.

No difference whatsoever.

Did you make sure every object is an "Editable Mesh"?
10-25-2003, 08:20 PM#26
Ilyaelencala
No, I usually model with Editable Poly. Thanks for the tip, gonna test it out.

EDIT: It worked!

EDIT 2: The_Lord, I really need to know how many animations are needed.

The Lord
As many as you want it to have. Just don't make it too few.

Also it would be cool if you all tell what you are doing in the model right now.

Just finished the Stand and Attack animations, it's on the finishing line baby! Now I've just got Death and Walk. Then, if we have enough time left by then, maybe I'll add a spell Animation or something.
