OK - That's fair enough. Can i ask that you post how you fixed the size thing with the key, when you have fixed it that is, here for myself and other taffers' to learn from please? (I think i will make a key later on)
Thanx :thumb:

Of cource. It was so simple, but now I can't recall a thing. I need to get my rest for today.

Ahh.. yes! So the original size of the object can be changed using the tool, called SCALE. ( the picture of it represents two cubes met edge to edge, it is placed in right of the NON-UNIFORM SCALE). And this size appears when you handle the object. It's preferable to make your object small, in anim8or. Then you can make additional fix in DromEd / Edit -> Add -> Shape -> Scale / The size change in DromEd, no matter how big your object is in front of you, doesn't influence the size of your object when it's taken. You can change this size only through Anim8or.
Aughhhh. Enough for today.

I see what you mean! So for a key, you have to scale it right down in Anim8or, for the inventory view in Thief, and scale it up using Dromed to the correct size, for viewing in-game, and hey presto! :D
Thanx for that tip. Simple indeed! :thumb:
By Schwaa...Good thing about dividing the object into sub-objects is that you get to use planar mapping on one part and cylindrical mapping on another part while using cubic mapping on yet another part. (more options)
That's awesome! :eek: (What's even more awesome is the fact that i know what you're talking about!) :wot:

I think a 3D Object Creation forum wouldn't be all that useful. There isn't actually very much discussion of the process of creating objects, and seperating it from TEG and the SS2 Editing forum would mean searching for relevant information could mean looking at as many as four forums (the splitting of the old TEG into the current TEG and SS2 Editing forums was bad enough). It's just too specialised to have its own forum, I reckon.

Omg Sluggs, you are so popular because I just searched with the word Anim8ator in Google and this thread is only 7th from the top!! Everyone go see for yourself. It's just so amazing!! :cheeky:

If you search Google for "Anim8ator" you get no matches, and if you search for "Anim8tor" this thread is the seventh result. If you use "Anim8or" (the correct name of the program) it's a long way back (not in the first 300, and probably quite a bit further).

Hmmm, that's interesting and perhapes this thread would still be on the first page of Google if Sluggs spelled it right.

Oops! *Goes to fix it!* :eww:
Sluggs'll fix it for you, and you and you, bah bah baaaaah *Ahem!*
