I made a breakthrough with posing the actors as accessories!

Hello, the fellow english speaker just reaaching out to share that I came across an easy fix for posing your characters during dialogue (which saved me learning to edit .flm and .anm files) I found out I could just deleted the body part I dont need in blend and the posed body part as an accessory.



Please do not delete if this has already been discovered! I just feel so proud because I really needed this progress with my cartoon series and I thank you all for helping me come across this! Hope it helps someone else!

You all are amazing here! and keep up the amazing work.

¿Y eso cómo se hace?

Es ingenioso. Entiendo que ha borrado los brazos en Blender, los ha colocado aparte en posición y los ha guardado como anillo u otro accesorio. También se pueden fijar en Blender en una pose, como hizo Dibujante con el Atalayero y la antorcha.

De todas formas, en este caso concreto, hay varias escenas de brazos cruzados, como "un vistazo".

Thank you!

  I will be back with a tutorial shortly! It is really fine folks who help me discover this. I can post in less than hour. I will try to translate well what I achieved.

So this idea came to me as I watching the amazing tutorial given to me on editing .anm files.

I realized just as I was able to make custom eyes and hair and props as accessories, I should try to do the same with poses. The worst that could happen is a python error, which I am used to now.

So what I initially did was a take a costume (this one is a little thinner because I sculpted her this way).

Next we can take the ligaments and pose them to our liking in pose mode, the thing I remember that it is important is to make sure you "make real" and apply. Unfortunately I stumbled across by mistake and if there is a faster or efficient way to do this please let me know!

From there I save as .blend file and append as a new object as you can see in the video.
From there I take an already open accessory in the game and combined the meshes and the delete the first mesh leaving me with the arms/pose, from there I texture and save as an accesory.

THE IMPORTANT thing is to save a copy of the cos_ file with the arms/pose missing that you need to be in the game and from there they should line up when you add the accessory in MED when you save the blend.

Again, if there is an easier way to do this please let me know, I am open to discussion!

Cheers!

Thanks monrolliput!
Demasiado lioso para mi
¿No se podrían hacer un pack de animaciones que la gente vaya solicitando y nos quitamos de lios los abnegados?

¿Lo que no hay es animación de meterse las manos en los bolsillos, no?

Well I am a beginner at modding so the only thing I know about bones is deleting the originals and combining to the mesh of the accessory and then assigning the bones from there (chest, gut) it seems to be the only way to avoid python errors. That I know of.

I am certain someone will find a faster way! And you are welcome, it means a lot to hear from experts.
