thats awesome... lol the way you worded that i just spent about 20 mins looking for "topmod 5"
then read it again and felt dumb lol

Great tutorial, very easy to follow and well done.

thanks i was going to do a more complex one but it took me like 12 mins and it was to big and long.

Very intriguing. Guess I'm gonna need some processing power if I'm ever gonna get into this stuff.

you forgot the part where it crashes for no reason and you want it to die
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
lol yep death... especially when your doing a big complex one.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
you spent hours selecting all the right faces for a rind model and BAM it crashes
๐: 0 โฉ: 2
yep yep that's why i stopped trying.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
I realized that a lot of the time the program hangs when smoothing...so i use blender to do subsurfs for topmod...
I was reading a post by the programmer once and the thing is that it doesn't really hang all the time...it just does that when it's thinking a lot...but it looks the same as a hang and the programmer doesn't know how to program threads so he can't rig a progress bar
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
I also love the point, where you have to select a lot of faces, you almost have them all and then your finger twitches, selection is lost and you have to start all over again :>
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
i know! i wish they had selections be affected by undo's...like every other program i've ever used
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Whole program could use some upgrades
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
I doubt it...I have a feeling it will get absorbed into a major program or w/e....
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Probably... Last update was around september 2007. I don't even know if someone's still working on it.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
the program doesn't do anything too amazing...I wonder if the same tools will just be implemented other programs
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
yup, nonetheless it has some neat functions
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
if they just implemented the handle creation and the rind modeling in another program I would be ok with it...the original topmod is relatively stable...just not as pretty as the new one
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
New one is also a little bit faster. Some things can be done in less time and effort.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
if it doesn't make you do it 2 or 3 times :3
If I had any inkling of programming skill I would try to mod it myself...I think it's open source

You're right

Nice one
What software did you use to capture that?
