I was just looking on blender.org to see if a new version is available and I found out that there is now a plugin that supports character modelling. I know that there exists a plugin that would create heads/faces based on parameters so that you can easily create different faces with a few minutes. I guess this character plugin is similar but for entire characters. Since we have not enough modelers right now, this might help in creating basic characters at least. Something like Oddities templates. And of course the advantage would be that we would have a consistent look (though I'm not sure that a consistent look is needed on characters or rather if this should be avoided).

 

Edit: I just read the various releaselogs to see what has been added to the new versions. It seems Blender now contains good support for UV mapping which may be good for skinners. So it might be worth to check this out nevertheless.

      Finally got round to publishing a tutorial on baking normal maps in Blender, since most of the ones we have are inaccessible or years out of date.

      The FAQ wiki is almost a proper FAQ now. Probably need to spin-off a bunch of the "remedies" for playing older TDM versions into their own article.

      Was checking out old translation packs and decided to fire up TDM 1.07. Rightful Property with sub-20 FPS areas yay! ( same areas run at 180FPS with cranked eye candy on 2.12 )

      i am so euphoric to see new FMs keep coming out and I am keen to try it out in my leisure time, then suddenly my PC is spouting a couple of S.M.A.R.T errors...
      tbf i cannot afford myself to miss my network emulator image file&progress, important ebooks, hyper-v checkpoint & hyper-v export and the precious thief & TDM gamesaves. Don't fall yourself into & lay your hands on crappy SSD

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.
