Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

hi everyone,

first off i feel really bad about having to drop out of the last challenge... so i'm going to try to make this one extra good.

anyway, this looks cool, and i've been scoping it out for a couple of weeks.

i got this model from https://www.3dfiggins.com/ ... really cool models and rigs... thanks RJcananimator

its a cartoony looking zombie, kinda eccentric... so thats how he walks. here's the walk cycle. (dont worry its only about 130k)

hey guys,



i was just wondering if anyone has experience with the trax editor?????

here's my prob, i'll describe it as best as i can

i've created a clip and i want to know, when i create another one, do i start the new clip after the old keyframes... or can i just work over the top of it.

i'm assuming i can work over the top, since i saved the other clip.

help would be much appreciated

The walk itself looks fine to me, though to be honest, it doesn't seem very zombie like - I was picturing something a bit more resident evil - though I guess all zombies don't have to walk the same.

yeah... i suppose... that's what the model was called so i just ran with it. since it doesn't look like a zombie, i can probably have a bit more flexibilty in deciding what direction to take the animation.

we shall see. thanks heaps arran!

cheers

Josh

oh... haha... i didn't even realise...

its not in 2 parts, its just that the ribcage section kinda overlaps the stomach. Look at the first walk cycle, its taken from a different angle. I did this from a side camera as it helps me to see what going on a bit better.

thanks for feedback though!


Josh
