Nahka's Claire Redfield with bodygroups. (Includes nude)

[Rastifan]

[QUOTE=MIDGERM;29640184]for some reason, when i try to load the spawn icon, it crashes gmod, saying the "memory could not be read"[/QUOTE]

This may or may not help. Got to C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\YOURUSERNAME\garrysmod\garrysmod\spawnicons

Delete the folder "claire_redfield" located there. Reinstall the model and try again. Sometimes Gmod mess up the spawn icons.

What a useful release. Thank you.

[QUOTE=CG62;29638289]Play with the settings some more. It helps if you remember that the bottom slider is the SUB-bodygroup, although I'm afraid I can't think of a way to explain it better than that.[/QUOTE]

ive already tried that even before I asked, I tried different numbers but it doesnt do anything. what numbers worked for you?

You need to left click the model every time you change the values.

Working numbers are in the OP, upper slider is the bodygroup, for example 2 is the bikini, and lower is the sub-group, in this case 2 is topless. And as Rastifan said, you need to "shoot" the model after you change the values to update it.

I wanted to bring attention to something that strikes me odd:
[quote=Rastifan][IMG]http://www.imgjoe.com/x/nudeclaigig.jpg[/IMG][/quote]
Claire's hip structure seems a bit off...I'm not sure if it's the angle of the lighting, pose, camera, etc...but I wanted to make a comparison(s).
[IMG]http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/2121/em0179.gif[/IMG]
Claire's waist, from where the navel starts, stopping just above the bikini bottom, seems somewhat too skinny. Take a look at the female waist structure in the images above and below to see what I'm getting at.
[IMG]http://img560.imageshack.us/img560/3180/acutepyelonephritis341.jpg[/IMG]

I'm not sure if anyone else found it odd, but it sure perplexed me, because I haven't seen a model's hip structure look quite like that before...maybe a screenshot of the model/bone rigging in the model viewer would enlighten me? The middle and right poses seem ok, but the one on the left...it's hard to say. I'll scope the model in-game sometime, so that I can get a closer look.

P.S. The male hip structure in the 3rd pic might help those of you trying to make a male model. But, I think it's safe to say that female models are more common, aha...I digress, just trying to be helpful.

i wouldn't be surprised if the body author fucked up; i doubt he was looking at a reference and I'm very sure he tweaked it afterwards if he was.

[Nahka]

Yes, I have noticed that the pelvis area is a bit weird, it seems to be higher than usual. It doesn't look bad or disturbing, just a bit weird, and the polycount is huge, so I'll just usually leave it alone. I tried to edit it a bit and the result was very bad.

HGEC is actually a more detailed remake of Exnem's Eyecandy -body, which is not that well made in my opinion. Even if some oddities followed to HGEC, I wouldn't say the authors fucked up, the body looks damn good and I'm sure I'm not the only one thinking that way.

[gman003-main]

The body proportions probably had to match the Oblivion skeleton, which (IIRC) doesn't have male/female variations.

Have you tried reinstalling or downloading the model again? The model is fine and you're so far the only one with problems, so I'm suspecting something went wrong while installing. Reinstalling just might fix it.

yes, i have downloaded the model, alot, i even downleded all the different mirror's, hang on, ill try again

got it, is working now :D

[gman003-main]

Well, with Nahka's permission and assistance, I started work on a few additional options for this model. Nothing much - basically just a few new bikini colors, for variety. I also added some variants to the knife-holder-thing (an empty and half-empty variant).

They're all set up as bodygroups - the top and bottom are seperately grouped, so you can mix and match colors relatively easily.

I ran into a small problem of not being able to fit all the color options onto one model, so I currently have two. I plan to up that to three or four, to make it possible to have every variation (as it is, you can't mix, say, red and black). I might also add a few more colors, if anyone wants one in particular.

I'm also going to experiment with alternate hair colors. Haven't done any of that, yet, and I might not make anything worth releasing, but I'll see what happens. I tried a similar experiment with the belt-holster-thing - making a mirrored version and doubled version, but they didn't work out at all well.

Anyways, pics of Claire++:

No clue on release-date yet, so don't bother asking.

Awesome picture. Nice work mate =D

[Evil-Ash]

We should create a specialized site ^^

[Sora5200]

Evilnashka.com? xD

Not just Nahka and me, but with Rastifan, bloocobalt, gman003-main, and all others modeler and fan of woman models on gmod! :q:

Wouldn't be a bad idea actually, not bad at all...

[QUOTE=Nahka;29801574]Wouldn't be a bad idea actually, not bad at all...[/QUOTE]

Why not? Count me in.

Want to reuse the name "Boobs: Source"? That was the name of a collection I released years and years ago (back when there were only 2-3 nude models total). I never continued with it, but it's a decent name. I think so, at least.

[Rastifan]

And make muzzle flash tests and generic solider poses a ban-able offense.
Unless it is nude female soldier's behind the muzzle flashes.

Then it surely would be a LONG name, just talking about of all the group. I always want to help on something, but i kinda suck on this of modeling, and just thinking about it, i surely won´t support that for just a single day =S

[Zethiwag]

Ello ow are you tooday, do you remembering me from tha other thread about Nude Excella and the Jill? Yeah, I do. I was the man with the wetsuit problem - where every inch of her body was an opaque black, except for the hands and head.

I am thinking it's a good idea to inform you that the same thing happens to this ragdoll.

It is unknown whether my computer is being the problem, maybe my graphics card has a built-in censor system, who the fuck knows, I don't. But I digress. [url=http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1069048-Evil-Ash-s-Nude-Excella?p=28712198&viewfull=1#post28712198]I would take a screenshot but I think the one I took in the other thread will suffice.[/url]

I'm suspecting that this is a performance problem, for example Rastifan had that problem in the Dead Center hotel map, but not in other maps, another friend had the problem in several maps if not all the time, and I never had that problem in any maps. Besides, it seems it's the high resolution textures that turn black. So, I'd say it's your system.

Yes, thank you for a verdict, at least now I know. I'll upgrade as soon as I can to experience your handiwork.

OK, status update on Claire++:

I've added a bunch of bikini options. I had to prune the obviously-bad permutations to get it reasonable, but you can now pick between three levels of transparency, two "umbrella" patterns (color+white or color+black) and two "checkerboard" patterns (color+white or color+black), for each main color (blue, cyan, green, pink, red, and violet). White has three levels of transparency, and black has three levels of transparency plus the umbrella/checkerboard.

I've ALSO added a few hair color options. So far, you can have brunette, redhead or blackhaired Claire. I have enough space left in the model for two more hair colors. I'm probably going to add blonde and some sort of crazy hair color, but I'm not sure which. If it were up to me, I'd do a funky albino pure white, but I realize that's not what most people would choose. I'll let you guys decide what crazy hair color to make.

PS: If you're a good screenshot-taking person, and wouldn't mind making some release-thread-worthy screenshots, PM me, I'll send you an early copy to work with.

For those crazy colors, I would suggest a shade of blue (Preferably light).

Tried whipping up a blue, it didn't turn out at all well.

I'll give it another go, but just in case, does anyone have another idea?

I'm curious as to how it turned out. Screenshot please?

Also, what shade of blue was it? Maybe try a midnight blue or something to that effect?

Sure. Give me a few minutes to upload.

I [i]almost[/i] have a full set of pics ready. Everything's posed in-game, but I found a problem with the normal maps (just need to fix up some material paths). So once I get that done, I should be able to post a nice group shot.

EDIT:

The hair recolors. I'm thinking that the black isn't quite dark enough, and the blue needs to be totally thrown out and redone. Thoughts?
