He's all spikey! I can see a clever skinner working wonders with that (Tarydium Titan anyone?).

I had a similar idea with my super duper Archdemon for Hephaestus Mines, but with the orange crystal stuff instead.

Also, to Qtit, I do want to note that I found a nifty new thing for 3DS Max that changes parts of its UI and important key commands to those similar to Blender, so now I'm a bit tempted to try this and what we discussed a bit before via PMs- (I don't know when, though, 'cause I have one more day of work tomorrow). Great looking stuff. The real selling point for me is Chef Fucker and his bouncy hat (I lost it when I saw it flop down hilariously in the video). Great stuff, overall, Q.

Great job, these looks great (especially the armored krall).

UTPT can export all of a model's frames as one big *.3ds file or separate files, but I don't know if that would work for what you're doing.

Well, I need obj. 3ds can be really screwed up, so, no. But thanks for the suggestion!

Food for thought:
Could you use this method to create overlay models for players that show them having armor, thigh pads, a shield belt, helmet etc.?
As in, for Armor you'd remove everything save for the torso, texture it differently, add shoulder pads and make it fatter etc., then script the Armor pickup so that it puts that mesh on your regular player model when you wear it. What do you think? :D
Would definitely be easier for campaigns where you have one default player model you can't change, so that you don't have to make 6 variations of each armor type...

This would also allow for customizable looks! In fact, you could just, say, cleave a player model in half and fuse two models together on the PlayerPawn to allow different textures on each half... voila, customizable shirts/pants!

Well, nothing easier really. As it comes for modeling. Scripting is another thing, but, yea, the armor thingy is very doable. And, I like it :D

That would be a good idea, I could use that sort of thing. As Sana said, it would be great for campaigns that use a default player that you can't change, which is ideally what I would like to do for OSC.

Yes, we didn't have easy access to modified, existing models with their animations kept intact until now. :D
