Also, the norwegians have one main thing in common with me - hotrods|American Muscle............. I saw so many cool cars - it made me homesick.

this seems like a really cool topic. BiG ToE-3DT I like your monster movements so far. I wish I could animate, ill have to look into a few tutorials on rigging and I need to find out how to link different animations together, that 100 frames just never seems to be enough. then I gotta make some sort of model to animate. oh, are we aloud to use bipeds? (im using 3ds max 8), also can we reuse models/rigs for different topics?

D,

Yeah, we like to keep our people alive on the road
Åndalsnes and up has the most amazing nature.... I went from Åndalsnes to Ålesund once and I was just shocked... It is so beautiful!

The crazy anim-monkeys are inside

The reason you saw so many cool cars was because Norway's biggest street cars event took place while you were here

LMAO

dude, thats just the standard length max sets the timeline to when you open it up, if you want your animtions to be longer, just click the little time icon in the bottom right corner of the window and you can set the animation length to whatever your heart desires.



In terms of biped, sure you can use it. and other rigs? yep, so long as you dont claim credit for the rig itself.

these challenges are about animation, not rigging
