Re: where is the iiko model ?

Aww the Iiko's are adorable! hahaha thanks!

Anyone else having trouble with the materials? It says "Missing Map Files" then I navigate to the folder with the maps (sceneassets\images\rascal_DIFF_u2_v1.jpg) and click "Use Path" but it still gives me the error.

EDIT: Nevermind I fixed it

Re: where is the iiko model ?

At last! I did it!

1. Select one of the bones.
2. Click the 'Motion' Tab.
3. Expand the 'Layer Manager' rollout.
4. Click and hold the 'Add Layer' button (next to the 'X' button).
5. Point to the first option and release, a new 'Animation Layer' is added.
6. Click the 'Setup/Animation Mode Toggle' button.
7. Start creating keyframes for the spline helpers (like 'CTRL_Head').

When I do this the Rascal CATRig at the bottom doesn't make the iiko move with it. Any suggestions?

Also, the textures don't work with it, when I load the iiko it says something about "Missing External Files" then it gives the directories to the pictures but I see no way to solve it...

Re: where is the iiko model ?

Is it possible to use footstep mode with the CATRig? Or is it possible to convert the CATRig to a Biped?

So far I've only been able to animate with keyframes, but using footstep mode would save a lot of time.

With the biped you can't move the mouth or ears like with their rig, but to do it you can delete all of their rigs on it and right click to "Unhide All" and "Unfreeze All" and then delete everything but the Iiko model. Then the rest is just biped rigging. This tutorial is pretty helpful: http://www.ehow.com/way_5980405_3d-s...tutorials.html

To fix the textures you need to open the material editor get the texture from the iiko rig... then remap to the textures provide by autodesk can be found at ikorig_maxproject\sceneassets\images\

I'm sorry but what do you mean by "remap"? I have tried loading the textures into the material editor and I just don't know where to put the material...all I have are the CTRLs and the CATRig.

- Extract the file to the directory of your choice using any popular Extracting program (7zip, WinZip, WinRAR)
- Go to the newly extracted folder
- Go to the "scenes" folder
- Open the file inside in 3ds Max
- ????*
- Profit*

I can't get the maps on him though. You can't select anything but the dummy objects.
