You can always use blender.

Updated, did a new head, but after i rendered i realized that it is a little smaller than should be. http://rapidshare.com/files/211950905/VF25TEST4.avi

But MF is still "Macross". 1) Valkyries 2) Love Triangle 3) Ppl singing Those are the main elements that every Macross have.

Thx for all the replies!!! Thx. I uploaded the video in avi: http://rapidshare.com/files/210313342/VF25TEST1.avi.html so you can use in your site. If 10 ppl downloaded it before u, let me know so i will send the link by pm. Should have a better quality than gif. I'm still working on a updated version, until now this is the lastest rendered video i've made.

Ok. changed the avatar just because of u.

Why do you guys assume that whoever said "let's paint 001 on Roy's VF" or "SDF-1 bridge should be delta-1" knew exactly how it is actually done in RL??? Maybe it was done out of coolness, like when they say on a movie that the armour plate is made of tittanium ceramic alloy.

You could play VFX-2, record with FRAPS and see how it is done...

Great work!

The zentradi ships need some smooth on the normals. At maya i guess something like 60~70 (or even less) would do. If smoothed too much, it would cause edges that are meant to be sharp to look strange. If you want me to do it i can install maya 5.0. lmk.

Thx!! Now trying to transform!!! The SMS logo is still mirrored... Need to fix the both arms animation, it is getting through the wings... Can anyone explain how the shield ends attached to the left arm???? . Or the gunpod at its hands??? I'm not sure but i guess it is anime magic isn't it????

Just let it die! Wiki should be about common knowledge. Not otaku one, which is completely useless. Everytime i see an article full of "popular culture stuff" (usually is anime) i delete it, but almost everytime someone undoes it.

Using maya for modeling and rendering. What do you use?? 3ds max??

Ponital behind the helmet?? The way it is already done?? For some reason that i don't know, the hair doesn't stay the same while rendered compared to what i see in the viewport.

This time nobody PMd me I guess i did the same think on this same topic, and 1 ppl PMd me

This time i saved time and rendered already in 480x640, instead of the 1280x720 i did last time (just to cut both sides...). I appreciate all the critics, so see if it is better now. Still i have some problems with the hair, somehow can't freeze and reset the transformation, it ends translating 2 times instead of just following its parented joint. Thx! I would try to do a harehare yukai version if i had the skills to do it... just learned how to do IK/FK, and also would be too late to do it. PM for the nude version... (don't PM, just kidding)

3d VF Girl!! Ugh, took more than 3 hours to render juts 29 frames. I did the VF-25 model only to do some action 3d scenes... Any tips to overclock an E2140 past 3 ghz??? At 3.2ghz couldn't get stable at prime95 with 1.5 vcore... Temps went very high!! -edit- deleted attachment...

Maybe something like this, which is a VF-25 with delta wings...

I'm not sure but i guess poly count doesn't increase that much the usage of RAM. I still have to add bump maps, but my system is already reaching the limits. I have yet to test how it looks in gerwalk or battroid mode. Sorry MegaX but this model i wont' be releasing.

I don't think anyone can use more than 4gb with a 32bit OS, the limit should be 2^32 = 4gb. There is windows xp 64bit, but seems there is no driver for it. Just for Vista 64bit...

Thx!

Just testing, rendering. Until now it has 80k+ triangles. That's a lot higher than any work i did before. Maybe it's time to upgrade from 2gb to more, had to downgrade all the textures to half. Does anyone know if there is any way to use 4gb at Windows Xp 32bit??? Tried to use vista once but it made me stressed.

I liked the new designs. Any scanlations?

That's really looks like a macross gunpod, now i see where Kawamori got the design.

Yeah it does!!! Thx!!!

It is a bit late to be asking this, but does anyone have a picture of the VF-25 cockpit??? I saw some of the Mac. F episodes but it never shows the whole cockpit and besides there is always someone using it, covering some parts... I tried to come up with a design using what i could see and making up with some details... not done yet. If it is all wrong i will just discard it.. Also i've been following some of the toys pictures, and everything doesn't fit well. In the toy there is a big joint that connects the leg to the body, in the 3d model used in the series i couldn't see it anywhere. So the problem is, if i remove it, i will leave a big hole, if i enlarge the body piece it will probably look strange in battroid mode. in the picture i made a generic piece to cover it. Anyone has any info on this?? Thx for any help!! almost forgot: to edwin3060
