you guys have a really sick attraction to misa... really...

I'm right there with you man, Banprestos kick ass, second only to the 1/48. they're the bee's knees (sweet).

Jonny 5 was pretty ugly.

i toyed with her emotions till she was practicly begging for it.

banners not allowed, but its not just the mods that dislike them, I personally enjoy not havving banners since they clutter up the threads. nice artwork though

ICO for sale 14.99 at a FRYS near you, best 15 bucks you can spend for ps2 in my opinion. I'm extremely excited about these guys' new game. EGM has an image of the kid riding his horse while some big critter flys in the sky overhead, its' amazing.

you've GOT to be kidding me! NONE of you are intrested in this???

i'm shocked and amazed that someone like you doesn't have a computer and super nice joystick setup for playing flight sims on the computer. learn something every day.

i have a pole vector constraint enabled, it just doesn't behave the way you're describing, my account can handle 40 megs, please send :-) I can't wait to see this, if it works thats exactly what i need to figure out. your rig looks a little more advanced than mine i'd really appreciate looking at it.

FLCL :-D

that's very pretty.

Is anyone else just.. totally excited by this game? ICO is one of my all time favorite games ever made, I'm glad to see the guys who made it still alive in the industry. Looks like the story is about a young boy who finds a dead girl who he's trying to bring back to life by slaying these huge giants! sweet! http://ps2.ign.com/articles/546/546753p1.html?fromint=1

don't forget the q-rau

i see.. but doesn't that just turn the leg around backwards? when i use the twist on my rig it spins the leg around so in effect: the leg kind of appears to be bending the right way, but the reality is that the knee is still bending like in batroid but the leg is pointing backwards. would you mind sending a copy of this to my email account so i could play with it and see if it's something i can incorporaite into my own rig? kingnor@hotmail.com that would be great of you, i can send mine if you want to try it out too.

heh.. these things are always funny like when you're parents tell you to just be yourself, it doesn't mater what others think. then the next day the INSIST you dress nice for dinner at grammas. what kind of message is that sending? If people laugh at you for looking silly, then say so-what to them? while its good to be confident in yourself. its also good to always think about improving yourself. what if it wasn't looking funny, but instead smelling really bad. hmm, kinda changes then don't it? hehe, and yes i'm quoting myself right after i posted! now that i think about it, the short before the incredibles had a completely opposite message than the incredibles itself did: bouncy sheep movie: you're good how you are, if things don't go your way just keep doing what your doing and things will work out. Incredibles: If you don't change you'll stagnate and will be unable to function. If you try to do things the same way forever you'll never win. i just noticed that.

I have to agree with Exo. With the release of Macross Zero, there is a new awareness of Macross. Why follow up with the old series (still great in my book) when you can give Kawamorie a fat budget and let him remake Macross SDF-1 to what he had wanted to and may have been limited at before? I don't want him to replace the VF-1s with new VF-1ZZ Variants but touch it up a notch to at least DYRL quality (production quality). Then follow up with Macross Side Storys about other heroes of Space War I or a new Macross series after Macross 7/VFX. personally i woudlnt' trust Kawamorie to remake SDF as something i'd like. we'd probably see a BIG shift in how the stoyr is told, and total redesigns of everything... armd platforms on the SDF and pointy toed valks. I'd be very unhappy. I'm almost certain that Kawamorie looks at the SDF show and cringes everytime. i dont' think he loves it at all the way we do. SDF is my favorite incarnation of Macross, and i personally beleive it's Kawamorie's LEAST favorite. IF for what ever reason it was remade i'd hope he woudlnt' want to be part of it. how sad is that?

Fix was actually a lot simpler than what I originally had in mind: Each of your 2 leg IK handles has an attribute called "Twist". If your handles are anything like mine (set up for battroid jointing, connected at the knee to a Locator via a Pole Vector constraint) then a value of either 120 or -120 on Twist ought to convert the forward-jointed battroid configuration leg into a reverse-jointed GERWALK IK joint. Just set-drive Twist to have those values when you're in gerwalk, 0 when you're in Battroid, and you should be there... can you make a couple of screen grabs to show me what you're talking about, the part about the ik connected at the knee is confusing me.

Lift foot up, swing leg forward, plant foot down. Lift other foot up, swing other leg forward, plant other foot down... tsk tsk tsk. bad monkey.

gettting ripped off means you're paying more than they are worth. it's true you payed more than the sale price, but its not like you payed 30 bucks MORE than they are worth. consider the full price the cost of getting them months before the people who wait for the sale. thats how i look at it.

talk to anyone who DOES CG and Computer Animation. the INCREDIBLES is FAR more technically advanced than Final Fantasy. Pixar did things with those models that Squares line up couldn't have hoped to do. its EASY to make a human character and walk them around, and square couldn't even do that convincingly. still not convinced got back to incredibles and just watch the fire. wow. its the first time i've ever seen fire in cg look that good.

you could say that about most things in the tv serise.

I'm with RADD, i like the utilitarian look of the vf-1a the most, i also like the vf-1d look too, though i think its a bit uglyer than the 1a they might fit in the story somehow in m7 but just from the design of the mech, i dont' like the faces on the valks.

yep incredibles is a great movie. to any who havn't seen the IRON GIANT: go see it. it is for 2d what incredibles is for 3d.

i've never heard of Angela Basset so i googled her. my god she would have been so much better. actually this Basset person looks almost PERFECT for storm. shame on marvel/hollywood.
