Manuel Schenk, a german writer, has written a new book that uses my graphics. So it`s worth a news i would say. Even when it may not really be of interest for english speaking people.

His new book has the title “HTML5 und 3D Browsergame Frameworks mit JavaScript”. And is finally availabale. The book is about making 3D Browsergames, using Javascript and HTML5.

As told, the book is in german. More infos can be found here: blog.schenk2000.de/

Here comes a dungeonset. This set is made of 15 single parts , with which you can build a dungeon with. I hope i have made all necessary parts 🙂

You can find the file in 3D Graphics / Buildings

A small note to the animation software Messiah. I`ve bought the Pro version while the dare to share campaign. Boy would i`ve been pissed when i would have payed the full price 😀

The software is horrible to use, and has a really nasty workflow. But what has finally stopped me is the fact that it has no working pipeline. The only really working import format is the lightwave *.lwo format, and even that one arrives without normalmaps. The export is equal bad. At least FBX works somehow. But it just exports one UV per Object. You loose when your character is made of several parts. And i already use the patch that promised to fix this issue. I had also a curious mail conversation with the PMG programmers. And after they tried to tell me that the *.mtl file, which is part of a proper OBJ file, is of no real use i don`t really wonder anymore about the pipeline issues, heh. Messiah was a really scary experience. And the money was definitely wasted.

I`m back at Blender for animation now 🙂
