Apparently Anim8or is still having new development releases, most current being this past week.

Oh, just in time! I've been taking today "off" from "work 3D" and getting Studio reinstalled and all my other assorted 3D programs... LOL.
Thanks for the heads up Sky.
I thought you weren't going to do that because you didn't want to get distracted. Boy that didn't last long did it.
Yes ma'am. I'm up to my neck in Blender at the moment, so I'll download and update tomorrow.Hey Miss B
By the way... SAV recently uploaded This Morph for Pauline. It's a custom sculpt morph, so does not rely on any kind of morph packages. I thought you might be interested, thus the heads-up. She's quite pretty, actually.
And do you happen to know of any actual morph packages for either Paul or Pauline? I did find a couple in the Rendo store, but I wasn't overly impressed with what I saw and have been hesitant to risk the expenditure (especially as I'm saving for that D3D utility editor now LOL).
Or, in my case... I start getting snarly and nippy. But yes, tonight is an "off" night for me... I need the comfort of my DS interface for a little while! LOL
Hey, I held off for two whole weeks!!
why, yes, I'm a 3D addict, and nope I'm not ashamed of it....

Hey Seliah...good, time for a little play....that's what I'm doing. Have to take a break sometime, or we'll blow out a circuit or something...haha

I think I tried that once, but liked Wings3D better, except it was so mouse centric, and I use a Wacom tablet, so had issues.Looks like Anim8or is getting a total remake....looks nice. That's how I learned very basic modeling, using that program
Then I tried a trial version of Rhino3D, and decided I had to save my pennies and get a more powerful modeller. Then I found Blender, and the rest, as they say, is history.
I think I tested out Anim8or once... wasn't fond of it at all. Found Hexagon, then found Wings.. went back to Hex, got fed up with the crashes, went back to Wings.... and then tried Blender and fell in love with it. Even if I'm not very good in it yet. LOL
Yes, I learned on 2.4x and wasn't particularly fond of it, but I did get some things done, so stuck with it.Always wished I had the patience for Blender, but wow, that interface...especially the old one
Then 2.52 came out with the new UI, and it was learn it all over again. Well the UI setup and the new/changes they made in what could be done anyway. The basics were still the same.
With the heavy focus on the Genesis figures - and many folks still being closely attached to their Generation 4's - I can't say I'm all that surprised, honestly. I've seen some nice stuff being done for Pauline, but it's like the creators disappear into the ether. They post previews and progress shots, and then you never see or hear about it again.
You definitely predated my first steps into it. By the time I finally got my fuzzy paws on it, it was already set up at it's current interface. But I admit that I really like the hotkey/keyboard shortcut way that it works - that's about the only thing that can keep up with the speed of my brain when I really get going on something.
Actually, there's a guy at RDNA, and I think he posted here too recently, who's working on a com.plete re-rig of Pauline, and from what I've seen it looks nice. It's not available as yet, because I think he's in negotiations as to where to offer her. He's a moderator at RDNA, but I don't think he was ever a vendor there.
You can check the thread here --> My Pauline Re Rig... Soon to be yours as well It's only a couple/three pages.
Here's his intro thread at HW --> Stopping in to say Hello

Part of it was doing stuff for Sarah at the time....she wanted to learn how to make props...I suggested Blender....and you should have seen the email I got back on that suggestion...haha....let's just say, she didn't want to go that way. So I suggested Anim80r, and she liked it...so we went that way for creating small stuff.
