Grandmaster B 4 Report post Posted July 21, 2011 Hi, interesting contest, count me in! I've tried the auto-rigger a while back with a model were the legs were bent a bit, this was a problem because i could not fix that in the auto-rigger (i knew that the binding pose was not correct but tried anyway). Besides that it worked exceptionally well, the vertex weighting is very good. I can rig and animated for myself but its the most tedious and unrewarding task ever! Is 'T' the prefered binding pose? Do other poses work? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mixamo 2 Report post Posted August 19, 2011 Cash prizes are OK I still personally prefer Animeeple. I don't like sending or uploading my files anywhere. As far as I know, Animeeple can't rig your characters automatically in less than 5 minutes anytime you want ! But you should check out our ToS if you are worried about your propriety. And If you prefer downloading, you should totally check out our Pro Characters ! They are FREE until August 29th here !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
