Okay, I have decided that my latest project won't be just a basic texture hack, it will also be a PSA. Who it is I wish I could keep secret, but for the sake of the project, I must let it be known. Bushido Fox McCloud (AKA Space Samurai Fox). Before I start, I want to state the following for clarity.
- I am new to model swapping (or vertex hacking if I must), you know this already if you have read one of my threads before
- I learn visually and by example, but Youtube is a commodity for me (this computer cannot run videos that are not GIFs any more, my mother's company computer blocks it, the Wii is questionable, and I do not have my own laptop/computer, etc.). So Youtube links will not be very helpful. Which hinders me.
- I am new to animating by the movement of the bones directly, so some tips will be appreciated very much.
- I am extremely detail oriented, so vague instructions will not be helpful either. I need specifics.
Thank you. Now for the questions.
1. How do I take the sword(s) and then transport them over to Fox for his use?
2. What would you recommend for making Vertex Hacking easier? (I.E. Tips, Advice)
3. What animation would you recommend a newcomer to practice animation editing on?
4. What animation would you recommend for amateurs to animate for their first completely custom animation?
5. For a first time PSA, would you recommend swapping a few move animations from other characters?
Thank you in advance, you are being a great help.[/list]
