new in messiah


#14

Not like that, referencing helps to work in production together, so anyone don’t need to wait for completing the task from other artist. :deal:


#15

You won’t be disappointed.


#16

Two things more…

  1. How fast is messiah renderer? compare to lightwave and modo. Or it’ll be a good choice that animate in messiah but render in lightwave.

  2. I can’t find a solution that how I can deselect any thing without selecting other one. Just deselect! :smiley:


#17

In Messiah you always have something selected. It may feel funny but you’ll get used to it.


#18

oppsss…it’s a big fun then. :applause: :rolleyes:


#19

I have found messiah’s renderer to be much faster than lightwave’s and have done a bazillion tests to prove it. I don’t own Modo so I can’t do any direct comparisons there but. . . layers don’t even come close to the power of nodes in the creating of great looking materials. . . so I think messiah wins there as well.

I have a very biased opinion. But I know I’m right. :cool:


#20

Hi one thing more please!
is pass rendering possible in messiah? :stuck_out_tongue:


#21

Yes. Depth, Color, ObjectID, Spec, Shadow, Surface Normals, Color, Diffuse etc.

Whats even cooler is the RenderGroups that allow you to do things like Light listing. . . quickly turn objects on and off so you can render in passes very easily.


#22

Hi interesting… :deal:

is there any tutorial on the web regarding that pass rendering? :wip:


#23

Yes actually. I made a pretty good one. Its not available yet though. Soon. Very very soon.


#24

Hi…one problem :wip:

How can I link the flex curve to the joint or something like. Actually I want flex curve stick with the mesh. So that I can use the slider(which is taking the keyframe information of the flex curve) and want to do the add manual keyframing too.

Is it posible? PLEASE! help me guys :curious:


#25

You can parent any point of a curve to anything. bones, Nulls etc.


#26

I did parenting the flex curve to the bone, and the result was double deformation. What I need to do eactly, parent the curve point instead of curve itself? :blush:


#27

Sorry…i think blender will be better choice for my new project. :sad:

Atleast I know it better and will think about messiah for rendering or latter animation project.

:deal:

GOOD DAY…

not sure confused :hmm: :argh: :argh: :argh:

NOPE…in messiah I think :drool:


#28

Wegg, “Fear not my friend. . . the next version is just around the corner.” Will this next upgrade be free or a paid upgrade for 3.0 owners?


#29

I don’t know the particulars but I don’t believe it will be free.


#30

Man, any hints or preview of the next one

Its beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeem so long!


#31

Wegg, some relase date or something… :wink: I know a couple of people that are waiting for any info regarding messiah…
Happy Easter!


#32

The day after its ready is the day it will get released. A few bad glitches just got resolved, there are a few things to tighten up and screw down and we should be good to go. But these things are very organic. . . its just not possible to throw up an arbitrary date because. . . then we would anger more people than please when/if we don’t deliver.


#33

So what can you reveal feature wise?
