Good character pack About Truespace Archives These pages are a copy of the official truespace forums prior to their removal somewhere around 2011. They are retained here for archive purposes only. Good character pack // New Users 1  |   Order by default Post by A_B // Jul 5, 2007, 7:18am A_B Total Posts: 4 I'm looking for a good character pack of regular people for a Playground scene: moms, kids, teens, etc. Just normal people. I want to get a pack that is compatable with TS7.5 with minimal headache - already textured, bones, etc. Any suggestions? Post by Jack Edwards // Jul 5, 2007, 7:38am Jack Edwards Total Posts: 4062 There aren't any pre-rigged character sets available yet. 7.5 just recently came out, so it'll likely be a bit longer before those become available. Of course that means that there's a money making opportunity for the first person to get it done. ;) -Jack.

I don't mind using those if they are reasonable compatible. Anyone tried these before? Post by TomG // Jul 5, 2007, 9:19am TomG Total Posts: 3397 I wouldnt go with a 3ds format, you might get the geometry to load but I think the UV maps may not work out. Your best option is to look for a pack available in the OBJ format. This is very common, since all apps load OBJ and load it well, and include texture and bump maps (and normal maps too I think). If a pack of some sort is for sale, it will often include OBJ. If you are not sure, you can always write to the makers of the pack and ask. Use the LUUV plugin to import and you should have the least problems of any format. HTH!

I try that but can not figure out in workspace how to view the normal map/bump on my object. In the LE what would I need to do? Thanks .... :banana:
