3d max bones plugin

by Josh Isgame · in Artist Corner · 03/07/2008 (12:27 pm) · 2 replies

Hey everyone. I have a question about player bones plugin for 3d max, I know I saw that plugin once it had a simple human model and bones for it. I wasnt sure that I'm going to learn to model so I deleted it, but now I'm searching for it again, if anyone has it can you share it with me, please?

By the way :

I don't have any idea how people make human, creatures models, I couldnt find any tutorials how to model. Do they create it from a box or something? I feel stupid asking that, but I want to learn to model, well if someone could help me getting started, I would be really greatful.

Thanks for reading :)

Hi Josh, the thing you are looking for is called character studio or sometimes simply refered to as biped.

In the create tab on the right hand side theres another tab called systems (looks like two gears) theres a button in it called biped, click and drag it out in the scene.

Also on modelling heres a page with lots of neat tutorials to get ya started, and mostly you start with a box and then add edges, vertices and work it into the shape you want

go to freestuff on the left in the main bar then tutorials and then 3dsmax

Cheers
