    the little girl is a Twinmotion animated character 

    they all have set looped motions,

    twinmotion speed depends entirely of graphics card,

    is fastish but not as fast as most other peoples rigs, not realtime at that quality 

    the UE4 shots are realtime Shadowplay captures, they have the running man

    dancing man is in UE4 too, he is a 3Dscan person

    I love how WendyLuvsCatz has integrated TwinMotion into her creative process. Really a great example of how these are all just tools for an artist to use.

    I've jumped on the TwinMotion bandwagon myself and I'm using it to develop a comic-look style. Being able to do everything real-time with no rendering is mind boggling. This is Stonemason's Urban Future 5 with the Daz Cyborg Model 4 and a cape from Marvelous Designer. No post work whatsoever -- realtime render inside TwinMotion:

    brilliant - Urban Future 5 exported/imported very nicely - what sort of energy does it take to finesse the materials to twinmotion (iray/3dl/?)

    thanks for the sample - very cool result.

    That's a lot of variables/integration going on there.

    You did a vr360 cafe scene a while back, and it got me thinking that you could have a single scene encapsulate 10 distinct stories - just like real life in a cafe - it'd be a lot of work to explicitly manage each facet, but the story-teller's power available goes from infinite to 10 * infinite...

    I exported the Iray version as a dxf file and the textures came through quite nicely. TwinMotion has a very nice drag and drop material workflow so I chose some neon glow materials and dropped them on a few areas to add the neon light effects. Otherwise, the materials were untouched. You could, of course, go to town by adjusting materials for grunge, reflections etc. ... One thing to be mindful of is the fact that materials come in one-sided so you may experience tunnels that don't cast shadows from the sun above. You can easily select the surface in question and choose the "two-sided" option to rectify the problem.

    So, I highly recommend the program to Daz artists. It will give you a whole new sense of your assets.

    Twinmotion you cannot use your DAZ and other people animated just as props, I have occasionally imported posed objs, it's animation capabilities are limited to included content and paths, no keyframing so cannot even move objects except on a path, I use it mostly for what it is intended for, archvis walk and flyarounds of my various sets and populating them with their contemporary dressed people.

    I still prefer it to Flowscape.

    a silly animation of an AXYZ Anima import

  • mindsongmindsong Posts: 1,701

    the expressions in the close-up segment are rather intriguing.

    how did you generate the dance motions? they are not robotic in the transitions.

    If I can ask, why that name/title? - the granny part makes sense...

    the Youtube Audio Library tune is called Meteor cheeky

    the dance is the 4 seconds of the free Anima lite version limited export of a longer dance looped

    she had no facial rigging or morphs so I created a morph target and roughmorphs using vertex selection and soft select and animated them as she had the underlying geometry ie teeth

    25 Things People in Texas Are Tired of Hearing

    https://bestlifeonline.com/texas-stereotypes/?utm_source=msn&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=msn-feed

    My answers to some of them:

    "Does everyone ride their horses to school?"
    I actually got asked something like this from an English person.  No, I have not even seen a horse in a week or so.
    "Is high school football just like Friday Night Lights?"
    Here in my Houston suburb of about 34,000, its pretty close.  The annual grudge match with the neighboring town is sold out months ahead every year.
    "Have you ever even seen trees before?"
    I was landing at Houston's smaller airport, near downtown, when a young girl looking out the window said to her mother, "They have trees here!"  Walking across the tarmac to the terminal (in maybe August), the same girl said, "This is like Africa!"
    "Do you even know what snow looks like?"
    Years ago I got up before sunrise and saw flashing lights ouside my apartment.  People were taking flash photos of snow that had covered the parking lot.
    "Don't you just love country music?"
    Depends.  If you count Lyle Lovett, Todd Snider, Jerry Jeff Walker, etc., then yes.
    "How close do you live to Dallas?"
    Too close.  During Hurricane Harvey, when coolers were in short supply, somebody posted a picture of the styrofoam cooler rack at Walmart.  Most shelves were empty, except for a shelf full of Dallas Cowboy logoed coolers.  We'll drink warm Lone Star beer first.
    "What kind of pickup truck do you drive?"
    Not an unreasonable question.  I don't, but over half of everybody else does.
    "What do you mean, you don't own a coat?"
    Its true.  A jacket, yes.  We go most entire winters without getting down to freezing.
    "It gets hotter in other places, you know."
    See "Trees" above.  A comedian at an outdoor festival in August, his shirt soaking with sweat, said he was going back to his old job as a tour guide in the Amazon.
