I have been working on this for the past 2 months. Its coming along nicely, the internal renderer makes it look like doggy doo so I am using Yafaray. I just learned of shape keys a couple weeks ago even though I have been using Blender for two years :o. So the face poses aren’t that great but I did find my big book of animation the other day so I’ll be putting in the A E I O U’s in there eventually. So along with criticism, may I ask a couple of things.
Is it possible to get Yafaray to use a ramp shader too or just what its material selector is? How could I achieve a glowing mesh?(I tried emit, that just made it a solid color)
And is there a plugin for blender that generates normal maps?
Also, I am not using any textures, so is there a way to bake the yafray settings onto the model?
There is an option in the textures menu where you can control the strength of the bump. en plus, did you put the bump map on the high poly version? because if you put the baked normal map on the same model you’ve baked it from it’s no wonder it looks TOO bumpy.
I am not a textures specialist so if anything I wrote is wrong someone shut correct it.
