@kemji
No sweat dude,
Im picking up the pieces, soon be out with sometin

Nice going on the yaradua thingy

@kemji

Ahhhh, i dont think it will be a bad thing if u start ur thread and stuff em with ur Poser works. This thread really isnt dead yet (laugh at the pun but its a fact)

@neikid
been trying to reach u hombre, where u at?

i'd have to agree with kemji on this one cos if we start pushing deadlines now, we'll be pushin them 4ever but as this is the first in a damn INTERESTING series of challenges to come, we'll let it slide.
Been watching this and im fired up tho i cudnt be part of it, too many pc troubles

------on second tots i just mite do a post.Never mind
Gr8t going guys, u r all Dons

Sweet. Nice one will, More to come i hope

@raymond88
i really dont know how to answer ur question but i mean sheesh nollywood?value this stuff we r all into/I'll like to see tha day bro

Dude.Must commend the art style. I'm taken aback. Nice

Yeah. U got me dude. It just tells how eager we are to see new stuff. The real question here is were we ready to relish in its newness or STRIKE IT DOWN IN ITS FRESHNESS. Hmm! food for thot huh!

Neikid wats happening man!
Tried posting earlier on but my connection was messed up. Glad to know u are back. Anyway, the idea for the cloth is not bad but it would fly with Akin more since he is supposed to hav been left for dead in the forest. Thats a demigod so i feel we shud be more All Mighty in his dressing.
Anyway, cud u kindly post the model to me. Modelling takes my time and thats wat i dont have right now. Hope u dont mind. Pls export in .obj file format.
Thnx man

@okx
all da best in ur project

Dude, i admire ur courage and i think most posters would agree that i really share your view but the gospel truth is throw some cash in that mix and get funding. Not only will u get the bestest(permit the language) hands but u will actually float a 3D game company. There are a lot of talents here on nairaland but truly, motivation's all we need. I know a lot about Games design from start to finish but do u really think i would bust my job that pays, freelance work that pays and my personal projects (that will someday pay) to join a company that only promises to pay
Nice going but thats the God awful truth bro. Wish u tha best tho

Damn. I.ve away for quite a while but DAMN. This thread has been crazy funny for the past three pages. It all reminds me of those rappers dissing themselves all over their lyrics. But in this case none of u hav an album and u aint gonna sell platinum

Anyways, U guys should let every one slide. We are all different in our ways. Nice, humble, crazy, fatherly, punkish, stupid, infertile, serial killers etc i could keep going on and on. Their's just two ways outta of this whole shinenigan:
1. Ignore threads of posters u dont like
2. Move to another thread if u cant ;Dpissants anymore.

Simple as that. I'm not on anyone's side, just a watcher who felt i should say something since i was "honourably" mentioned by reactor( i take off my hat for u bro).

But i must say, it has been really funny

One last thing, @Omnipotens Dude??Orders?On a public thread?It dont work that way, OKX was rite on that one. No biff, just stating a fact. Nice going ya'all

@okx
Men im getting messed up by the days. This project has hit a major stale mate and im currently thinking of rebranding it. But thats still a thot. Anyway, where we are right now is NOWHERE and thats the gospel truth. Sorry guys but thats the truth. It dosent mean im quitting, im just thinking of the best way forward. Okx, im glad to know u'r still wit me on this one. I'll be updating u soon. I'll be in touch via fone.

@all
Guys, be patient. There's about to be a turn around. Keep them hopes up alive for me

@okx
well said tho its really difficult not to relate art with perception and attitude. U really get personal especially wen u receive criticisms if u are not a constructive fellow. Thats wats been happening. But then again the dude aint my kid nor my brother or father so we all really shouldnt try to tame anyone here. Condone, retort and ignore but best off DELIVER CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM FOR THOSE OF US WHO WANT TO KEEP GROWING.

@grafikdon
still admire and love ur work.

@reactor
dude u rock, speak ur mind cos its yours

@sojio
wats up?any new stuff coming up ur ends??

@kemji
keep posing dude but also hit another 3d graphic package. It will help

nice to see that a lot has been going on here
@kemji
still kicking guys in the nuts eh? anyway i think dat guy was asking for it. Good show bro.

@maxani
i feel u bro. My whole work got stopped cos the ram on my laptop went bad so relying on just 512MB is not just cutting it. Even max8 slows down but im getting a solution up and running so im still in the game.

@neikid
Man, the wait's all over and its good u r back, now can i have the demigod model. I gotta restore order and balance.tnx alot

@OKX
so it took just that statement to make u post somethin under this thread. If i had known i wud have been hitting u hard since. Where hav u been dude?u forgot u were my right hand guy?i tried ur fone and it never connects. We need to talk. Anyway, hope u r back now.

@all
I really dont know wat to say except be patient guys. Things aint going the way it should but it would get better. Scouts honour. Take care ya'all

Oh boy! Naija is developing. Insurance again in Art section. Guy u are just too much

No toasting or hooking up on this thread


@gamine
Seriously is that your Address

@all
Still on the model. Havent had an ounce of time to myself this past weeks. Be sure to deliver dis week tho. thanx ya'all

thanx, like the support now

@kemji
I dey try my best, just not enuff time for my job and my life
Still kicking shaa, not dead yet! Hope to post this weekend

@maxani
yeah men!me too. nice to know u r still hanging in

@gamine
u hit my thread.Swwwweeeeeeeeetttt. Whats up wit u?

@okx
if u out there man, havent herd from u in ages.howz ur project going?

@maxani
gud to hear from u.u guys left me out in the rain. anyway, its not u stalling. u explained ur position so i knew but the other peeps, anyway, catch up and lets see where we go from here. welcome bak

@kemji
Really, u could have fooled anyone. My schedules tite so the next 3D work mite take a while

@aphek
Anything about a Maya download link for Maya 7, anyone?

Here's the priest head planes. Hope to start&finish the body soon. Its done in max

@gamine
Really i'm so behind u. We shud get the dvd.

@grafikdon
I think the amount of saliva i've lost from drooling over ur screenshots is enuff to fill two cups haha!what were u expecting?tanks?
Neeways, nice job and all the best

@aphek
the 3d software is maya but i cant seem to get any version except the PLE editions. I was actually looking for maya 7. Just incase u know where i can download it or get it in Lagos, pls let me know. Working on the priest model, shud post the head later today.

@rest
We still kicking, aint dead yet so no need to bring up alternative gist. Any gist shud be project oriented so that the tiniest of efforts will keep the wheels turning.

@sojioguns
thanx, was beginning to think i wasn't getting across to people no more. i really wonder why u guys and i dont meet in some place and really get to business. Well i guess thats the way this messed up life is,

@kemji
Dude, ahhhhhhhh! i really dont know what else to say but "past glory?". wats up wit that? And wen i said solo, i meant i have to forge ahead even as there's no crew backing me up rite now. Really, cut me some slack alrite. U can stick the fire up my pooper as far as it will go wen i DONT perform.

@the rest of ya'll
this the way u guys are gonna play this thing out?

@kemji
no offense to u but i really dont like the way u talk about my project. U keep talking about my commitment but seem to forget that for the past three or four weeks iv been trying to get my people to work and there has been no response. All uv done consequently is challenge me even to an animation duel, . All im saying is now iv gne solo and its gonna take more time for results. I'm learning a new software package and everyone else out there knows thats not easy so pls my 2D maestro, cut me some slack all rite

@aphek
No one actually knows how quiet it is over here. I must admit it was really painful to see my thread not be amongst the top 3/4 like its been for months. Ayway, like i said, im working on the modls myself now so its gonna take some time but i'll get there. thanx for the support tho.

tnx ya all.

@maxani
just saw the mail. Men tough luck, hope u get back on your feet quickly cos loosing data cant be devastating. Well no problems, we still here and aint going nowhere.

@all u guys
been a ruff week. Lost my grand aunt so things been unsteady. Work kicked up also. Anyway, been seeing all u guys hav been spewing back and forth. Lets just say i'm beginning to gear my mind up for the lonely trip down this road. I should be starting the modelling myself then on to the rigging and all.
@aphek
thx for your input.gr8tly appreciated

@the rest o u guys who cant seem to get that anim off ur minds
that was a test and it no where represents half of what i can do nor 1/3 of the output of this project. That said, i wud start working on a new mesh for the project so just keep watching this space

Thnx all

@aphek
Why shud i be offended, infact i love ur analysis. Thats also why i hold OKX dear. Straight to the point, constructive and professional. truth is that rig was generic, thats i used 3D max default skeleton and tweaked it to meet the mesh. So the animation was actually me moving each bone. Would have taken more time but i needed the anim out ASAP. I will work on a fresh rig. But i wud like ur next posts and hey, if u are interested u can hop aboard.
Thnx

@my crew
Dudes really getting lonely here

@Sojioguns
I'm glad u asked. As u can see or have noticed, none of my core team members are reverting to this thread again. The only explainable absence is OKX who shud be knee deep in his animated tales by moonlight launch. Everybody else is unaccounted for.
Thnx for noticing the rig. U have a keen eye. I stated it right from time that the mesh was giving me problems. I even had to use the max default skeleton to get that animation up and running. Fitting the structure into that mesh and dealing with skin weights---- I had my anim down to the T. Right now, i need a well modelled xter cos my jobs taking me by the throat and i doubt if i'll be able to model except weekends. Basically, this is where i'm at

@grafikdon
Tnx for hitting my thread man. Always a treat wen u come around

@kemji
No one's actually pulling ur strings. They are giving u advice. I used to use poser and believe me the other 3D packages are a lot tougher to master but tthey give u absolute control and so u wont hav generic looking figures and samey animation. The time u spend trying to proove ur mettle wud hav been wiser spent on max or maya. Right now, i just downloaded Maya to start all over again.I dropped out at Maya6 for Max7 but now im going back again. Determination will get u there.

@rest o' my crew
A new deadline's been set. If u are still on the team, u gotta post here before this week runs out and start on a new task. By next week, i'm letting everyone off except OKX who has genuinely taken a leave of absence and neikid. Tunslike&Maxani are hanging.The rest, u have to proove u are still one of us.
Even if i have to go at this project alone, so be it.

Thanx for all ur support guys

Should be putting in the next video tomorrow
@all
Where is everybody?been here alone for 4days now, Dont tell me u all just took off at once, Conspiracy.

But seriously guys whats up?

@all
The next scenes are up dudes. No comments so far and remember, its test animation

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_axxaQmd-M

@OKX
Howz ur launch going?I'm sure u r pretty swamped now but it must be pretty cool to have reached there. All da best man.

@all
I pulled down the other video and had to re-render.the new link is
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qlJg2kO-tw.
Remember this is no where close to the final thing, we are just testing

@A2J
Hell no, not even close. That was an extreme mockup. If u've been following we decided to do a test animation for measurement purposes. That thing is not textured properly and the rig dont fit. We want to study rendering and output so we can come up with our production platform.
U know what, i'll pull down that video cos i mentioned this before that people mite mistake this for our quality.

@okx
What do u think?Still post for public viewing or find a way to post privately. As A2J pointed out, people mite start judging us with this
Or we could actually continue and just make sure we keep hammering that these are all tests.

the next scene will be up 2morow
