RELEASED HiveWire Gorilla From Dusk Underway!

SimTenero just brought out a set of Particle Physics engine+variants for Studio in the past week or so. I'll have to admit that most of the promos didn't convince me that it was useful for anything that I wanted to do. But I'm sure that before long we'll be seeing renders in galleries or threads that will give me reason to reconsider.

Requires 4.9, however.

As to LAMH hair. No, it's not actually fibermesh. I gather that it is something like Renderman curves or some other such bizarre name. It can be exported to fibermesh, though.

Ah, perhaps that's why I thought it was. For some reason I thought Alessandro had made a remark that it was Fibermesh. Maybe he was talking about exporting!

I stand corrected. Thanks! :)

Or possibly the Poser version. They did just release a Poser wolf with hair. They may have had to do fibermesh for that one.

It turned out very well didn't it?! Virtual Worlds map work, and Paul's rigging and poses. VW created the imagery and Lisa made some adjustments and put them all together.

Hoping more folks will create more pose packs now, and some poses with Dusk and Dawn and such.

Congratulations to the HiveWire team for this wonderful product. It was a lot of fun to work with Kong!

Thanks so much for helping out in a big way on this product. So glad that you made time for creating all the map work for this animal!! I think it turned out very well! It is a scary looking beast. I want him on my team for sure.

My first thought when I saw the main banner image in the newsletter was . . . Planet of the Apes has come to the Hive!! :D

The expression on his face was priceless. ;)

That does get you thinking about some planet if the apes gear and incorporating Harry in some renders.


I know he will rock even more with some of your poses @pommerlis !!
