@X-27 I can post in Events, can't you?

Hi everyone o/

Hello :D

@X-27 Because we're only an handful of people here, there's not much sense separating even further - we'd be just more scattered

@someonewithpc Agreed

Any idea why this happens?

Adding a collision and then a smoke collision messes up the smoke collision

Yoohoo! .

Yoohootoo! :D

at thios point we down-grade to "U's" : Yuhutu

YewHewTew

Whazzup?

not much,

you?>

man my fingers are too big today, I keep hitting weird punctuation as I type.

lol

Not much going on today

umm... we have a problem

@GiantCowFilms ^^

Oh . . .

shoot

That is quite a number of them :P

Oh boy

What about you? Or GCF?

the only thing I can think to say at this point is..

XD

XD

Oh well

200+ of those suckers . . .

17 for me, but four are quoting you.

and 14 lol's

Not bad :O

I normally laugh in private. :D

Ah

Me too

i only tell you guys when it get to the point where i fall out of my chair.

@NoviceInDisguise that's a scary thought.

ah, I never quite do that

@ARadish yes

I am scary

:D

well at least you don't get in arguments here like everyone else.

Yah. . .

you all will get a lough out of this. whoblend.tumblr.com/post/114300920839

XD

@NoviceInDisguise 207 and counting.

Ah yes . . . darn

:P

you need a new acronym.

Any suggestions?

how bout you switch to IHFOOMCY

?

I Haven't Fallen Out Of My Chair Yet.

Oh man . . . that is funny X . . . wait

if you actually fall then you can "XD" or "LOL" or most aptly, "ROTFL"

@NoviceInDisguise IHFOOMCY

is the word you're looking for.

Ah, yes IHFOOMCY

That is odd, any other suggestions? Like, shorter?

@NoviceInDisguise L

short enough?

That is shorter . . .

L

Laugh?

@NoviceInDisguise Bing and the jackpot goes to the laughing guy in the back.

L

of course, if you use it as liberally as XD you'll end up with the same problem.

so that means @GiantCowFilms , @X-27 and myself all need to be less funny. :(

I guess I could try not to post it as much . . . maybe just

...

if I have to

yeah but that goes against the grain of your personality it seems.

instead, open up a gigantic word document, and every time you feel the urge to laugh, just vent there. :P

XD lol

Oh . . .

and it's not a bad thing to been known as the happy guy either.

maybe not

question, how would i composite this?

or would i need a texture?

BTW that's my desk grain.

What do you want to make?

That texture there. bit i can't use the nodes in cycles aside from just adding diffuse.

You mean make it procedurally?

um... probably. i don't really know what that means but it sounds professional, so yes!

Meaning, no image textures

Oh. yes! that's what i want.

ok, that will be hard

google.com/…

oh.

It can be done though

@GiantCowFilms I'm working on rigging my cow for my short film . . . what a pain in the @&$# it is :P I have the eyes done so far, by far the easiest part. I am trying to figure out how to keep the feet rigged flat onto variable terrain. Any ideas?

@NoviceInDisguise Inverse Kinematics

OK, how would I get the target to follow the contours of the ground?

@NoviceInDisguise Arr....

I don't know..

OK, that is specifically what I'm having trouble with

I'm making some of the scenes still, so I'm not wasting time, anyhow

@NoviceInDisguise there is shrink wrap and floor constraints but both works only on unconnected bones

Hmm

@Chebhou .... And I spent ten minutes testing...

@someonewithpc testing what ?

@NoviceInDisguise That does work, just make one empty have the shrinkwrap, and then another with a floor constraint set to the first empty; then the second one will never go through the floor, and you can use it as the IK target

@Chebhou Testing how to do that

Cool

@someonewithpc what about the bones chain on uneven surface

You can also have the second copy the location of the first empty, except for the z

@Chebhou Inverse Kinematics

@someonewithpc i mean they will go through the floor

@Chebhou No they won't, that's where the IK comes in

You would use the second empty as target for the IK

@someonewithpc i'll try it and be back

@Chebhou It should work, I think

I don't have much experience with animation in general, but specially IK

@someonewithpc me too no real experience

Me neither, I'm learning it as I go :P

@GiantCowFilms What number is the registration up to for blend-exchange? I need to be user 27 :-)

@GiantCowFilms my first answer to use your BE. (I will be expecting UVs for including a blend hosted on BE :)

shouldn't we slow down on closing and DV first posts blender.stackexchange.com/questions/27620/modeling-planet-help
