How about export a Lightwave figure to Blender and use Garment Tool, then back to LW gain. Could that be made to work ? :)

A couple of William Vaughan videos which may or may not be useful. :)
LightWave Cloth Dynamics with buttons
LightWave 8 Cloth Dynamics

I really hope Chilton doesn't see this, as he will figure out a way to make those headless dogs Glycon compatible... :)

I heard of characters being in the T-pose and A-pose, but Tim Albee in his book LightWave 3D 7.0 Character Animation recommends the starting pose to be knees bent with arms forwards and elbows also...

@ raymondtrace, Interesting, but do you recall Adrian's revelation ? My own hunch is that something big was supposed to happen for the 30th anniversary, but was pulled and replaced by an "Is that...

Possibly because it belongs on their site instead ? Or because Larry's Terror Bird alone kicks Foundry's butt ? Or maybe just because I feel a tiny green eyed monster at the moment ? :D

In that context, I thought you might find this amusing... :D :)

Thanks for the thoughts and suggestions. The set arrived today at my work address and is a bit tricky to test, so I'll do properly tomorrow when I get home.

@ raymondtrace, the vids do appear to...

I don't actually drink so may 2020 be history and 2021 shine like Wine on Linux. ;)
But agreed, Happy New Year ! :)

I just bought an original set of 3D character training dvds from Ebay and the contents consist of a html webpage style interface with embedded movies in some ancient version of swf format.

What is...

The device on top of your screen is for motion capture ? Are you a character animator ?

A lot tidier than mine for sure. :) What are the VHS tapes and software boxes on the right ?

Colourspace is both a black art and minefield to me. I'll share my "understanding". Different video types have different names based on hiow much colour they are technically able to display. So...

I was quite impressed with this Syflex demo, the hair swish at the end as the character turns, but from the description can't work out if Maya did the sim or Syflex... :)...

Or would it ? :) If someone owned OD UberPass, would that save such steps ?
@ raymondtrace, many thanks.. :)

Very good question, but take a look at this thread #6 and #7. Would love raymondtrace to chime in with any further advice. Download Sasquatch demo here. :)

Thank you for the discount and promotion. Just to understand better, the Sasquatch plugin is currently available as a promotion item only, but might be released as a standalone in the future ? Is...

Sasquatch Resurrector ? That is a surprise. :) Will it work okay with Sasquatch Lite version ?

I was interested by this comment in the "What is Happening with LW?" thread (as I am considering making a plunge):-


I have seen the BM comparison table of the two versions, but I was wondering...

I really shouldn't partake further...but who is this superman you speak of ? Education m'boy..

Getting bit surreal... Nice to see Paul back though... :)

@ Miniwatt96, ironically it was honest of you to admit using a dishonest version of LW (or candid anyway), but how far back does your legit history of LW go ? I only ask because a history of legal...

If Lightwave becomes sold...our accounts might vanish in a puff of smoke ? :)

I don't know if this is the right place to mention but YAMATOWORKS YS Plugins appear to be updated for specifically for LW2020. I am not sure of the differences with previous versions, but these are...

The film and LW is mentioned here:-
