Hi there,
I hope you can help.
I've just started on a rather big project and rather than finishing the mesh and the textures and finding out it isn't going to work, I figured I'd ask this in advance.
So I'm creating the mesh for Neytiri from Avatar. My idea was to make the whole thing, body, outfit and hair as a single mesh and use the exclude part flag code to remove the feet, teeth and hair. I think this would be the code for that if I did it correct: 0000000000000118
I think I'm going to remove the vertex paint as I don't want it to move with the sliders. Will that work, or do I need to remove the map as well? Or will that result into a faulty file?
The reason for this is because I had to change the proportions of the body slightly as the head is much smaller and the neck much longer than a human sim. I'm worried about this because it slightly diss-aligns the rig as well. I've included a picture of the mesh with the rig.. and you can see that the rig falls slightly below the face and the arms fall slightly shorter than where they normally do.
Is this going to cause problems when the sim moves? It's turning out to be a lot of work for this project and I don't want to find out at the end.
(oh.. and I know it looks super creepy with the human skin. I promise it looks really cool with the skin I'm painting right now)
I hope you can help.
