Title: Character Rigging done easy!
Post by: Art on April 10, 2012, 01:04:07 am
I saw this as one of those little side bar things and thought it might be an AD but it still seemed interesting so what the heck!!

Art,
  They all look so easy and quick.  Interesting since it looks much easier than the AutoHapGenerator.

This does look interesting. 
don't know if will work with haptek girls.

if don't would probably work with haptek girls made from max3.

Also haptar "t" formation if you want try with haptar girl.   good luck.

Sorry to speak one more time about Second Life. I quickly found the SL section:

There are so many existing SL characters and animations. Most of them are very well done (IMHO) but for people who love experiments, why not...

Sorry again.  :)

Nice find Art, I wonder about the cost though.  It's good to see tools that make the process simpler appearing, I guess we are limited to humanoid forms for the moment though.

On a side note, Rob M over at Zabaware said that the Haptek founder was going to start on some new stuff.  That's a surprise.

Yeah, after ten years Haptek's creator must have figured that the Haptek system has had enough time to finally cool off from being such a "Hot" commodity for a decade. <insert sarcastic hmmmm... sound>.

It's going to be interesting as to whether Robert M. goes once again with Haptek or whether he's learned a lesson from all of this and tries his own venture with the "Chairmation" system (whatever that is). :o ::) ???

Yes, one of the things that came out of the Chatbots 3.2 conference in Philly was that the Haptek characters have risen from the ashes! The developer is working on bring them back to life.
