Re: destruction model - would the amount of visible damage have to be created with multiple pre-made meshes or could it be generated dynamically/procedurally. Using a fender as an example: pre-made might have 5 levels of damage, each represented by individual meshes. Dynamic might use shape keys

I will make myself available to help with graphic assets if needed for GSOC projects. I can't commit a 100% effort, but can certainly help if a specific asset cannot be found, or if specific asset needs to be modified. Ulf On Feb 7, 2014, at 12:36 PM, Christian Van Brussel wrote: > Hi and so

Would it be possible to pull Makehuman into CS, as you are discussing, and then make the animations/morphs in Blender and just export the animation data from Blender and apply it to Makehuman already in CS. That way there is no need to export all of Makehuman every time. On Oct 18, 2011, a
