try this :

1:disable the DEP settings for Anim8or. Follow this link-----> http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/566/xp-sp2-how-to-turn-off-the-data-execution-prevention-feature-dep/

2: see if that fixed the issue...if it didnt go to next step.

3: right click on the Anim8or.exe icon then click on the Compatibility tab.
    then put a check in the box (Run this program in compatibility mode for:        "windows XP service pack 2" )....

4: see if that fixed the problem if not then go to the next step....

5: follow step 3# but this time put a check in the box under ( Settings ) that says: "Disable desktop composition"

6: if that didnt help..............then.........um............not sure what it could be right now....



Hope this helps....

rellik420,hihosilver  hit the nail on the head (IMOP)....I have to agree with both of them.

But, most people who know me I wont stop untill I can find away to use anim8or with other software. so here it goes.

i try to import one model (made in anim8or and export to obj) and no god news.

This is the work around for that:
1: before you import your object into sculptris you have to subdivide it a few times in Anim8or.
2: make sure there are no UV assigned to the object.
3: make sure your object has no HOLES!!!!!...these are bad..and will crash the program most of the time.
 this should work..once the object is in sculptris use the smooth tool on it's lowest setting.( be very careful when you use this tool on Anim8or objects.)

The thing is, being an organic modeler I wish it had some kind of a retopologize tool.

only in a perfect world my friend...lol...I hope to get this as well......I am looking around for a free retopologize tool or something similar. I tried to see if I could do this in Anim8or at one time. Something like a reference image to model around. I think it would work if I could find a way to turn off the wire frame on the object I am modeling around..but we cant do that. I get confused on which point iam trying to move....also I group the object first so I would move the object iam was using for a  reference.. I pray Steve never takes that out. It very handy to have..

and yes this program has a built in UV mapper and painter/texture...once your finished modeling your object then use the poly reduction tool then hit the paint button....paint/texture your object then export your texture map.... I also have to metion I have used all most every 3D/paint software out there, freeware and demo and this painter is very powerful. and its FREE

My first love is Anim8or and all ways will be.

THE END..................................

ok my book is done, till next time

rellik420...you have to use mesh lab to reduce the poly count...and sculptris has a poly reducing tool in the program and does a great job as well. use the reducing tool in the program first then export it in to mesh lab to clean it up....I have been using this program for awhile now and once you get use to it ( IMOP) there's no turning back to a poly modeler for organic models..I love the software and the best thing is no more un wrapping a model for UVS...WOOOOHOOOOO!!!!!!!!


I have tested the models exported in some programs i have to make sure they will work in my game/ movie. This includes
poly count, texture quality, rigging/ weighting and animation. And all came out perfect.

With any new software you try there is a learning curve.

also this software is best for organic models..you can make non organic models but with more work. It is best to model non-organic models using anim8or ( thats my opinion )

Hi merolb,

you might want to search for another hebrew font. that will do what you need it to do... there are plenty out there and easy to install on your PC. The thing is, It all depends on who made the font and what options they made available in the font.


hope that helps ya.

I am sorry BOB_I_Ts and baxter but my website is gone. I can't afford the site right now so I had to let it go.

I remember you from way back when, you were an old member even when I joined several years ago. Your tutorials helped me quite alot(I loved the one tutorial for the mouth, made me feel special when I finished it.) Your tutorials truly helped me in my quest to learn anim8or.

And BOB, perhaps you could try the internet archive, it stored caches of pretty much every website as far back as the late 90's

http://web.archive.org/web/20080331230419/http://www.mp3d.info/Anim8ortutorials/index.html#

There's what I got from it.

daniel99 and baxter what you said means alot to me. making tutorials is a time consuming job. And those of us who do make tutorials usually never see a (thank you). Iam so happy that my website helped some one. I wish it was still around for others to use. but right now I cant do it.

I will upload some up to date video's soon so every one can see this old timer's work....lolol......

Hi, BOB_I_Ts

I just had a look at your model and the wire cage. I do have a question on why you choose to break the edge loop flow around the rib cage, near the pelvis area? The only reason I can think of is, you are wanting to deform this area for muscle with your plug-in???
but keeping the edge loop flow will do the same thing. Also there is an issue around the mouth area the edge loops break. and at the bottom of the cheek bone there is an edge loop that goes no where.

I am pointing out what I see, and I have no idea how detailed ( as in edge loop flow) you want this model to be for your plug-in.

other then that the edge loops look really clean.

As for the poly count, I believe you are right on the mark for deforming the mesh in any area you want with no problems.

Hope that helps.
