Blender MineCraft Rig Demonstration

[Vanake14]

It's pretty good, but I REALLY don't like the expressions 3: It should be used more :D

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@Vanake14 I actually don't know what are expressions. I am a pretty amateur user

[Vanake14]

@GeraldoCockerhan Well the thing that allows you to change it's mouth and stuff, but you said "Facial expressions" or sumthing on minecraftforum, soyes D: I don't like them...

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@Vanake14 Ohh... If you don't like them there are plenty of other rigs out there. Just search in Google. The facial expressions is really what makes this rig different, as most of them don't have it.

[barnyhitman]

um i dont have the launchers after i download how do i fix it or get them?

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@barnyhitman Are you using the newest version? Go to help->f-curves/driver version fix.

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@barnyhitman Actually, I just updated blender my self and I am not sure I didn't have any problem. I am not sure I understood you. Still, try what I told you.

[barnyhitman]

@GeraldoCockerhan i dont have the rigs all i have are the textures the block.blend1 and and the steve rig.1 and 2

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@barnyhitman Thats weird. I downloaded it my self to make sure I didn't make any mistakes. It is all there...

[jonathankim1999]

it appears that your rig does not like to render. when it did finally render, the lighting was completely off. why?

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@jonathankim1999 I am not sure what you mean.

[jonathankim1999]

How long does this render? I've been rendering the same pic for 10 min lol.

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@jonathankim1999 I didn't see your comment :/. Depends on your settings. If there are many light, or there is ambient occlusion or environment lightning it could take a while.

I'd say my longest render way about 10 mins a frame.

It's a good rig, but some things through, the rigging is pretty ankward, lots of things need to improve, and the thing with the normals(the faces that was facing inwards) you can fix that by going into edit mode, then press ctrl+n, and bam! the faces will be pointing outwards! :) and you see that the edges are "smooth", that will cause smoothing errors, you can fix that by applying a edgesplit modifier then applying the edges by ctrl+e then mark sharp

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@naipsak I forgot to thank you!

Thank you ;)!

[TheMichaelvlogs]

hi how do i change it to a zombie ?

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@TheMichaelvlogs Change the skin in the textures panel. I've included a texture in the download.

[ozy741]

i dont know how to move the armes

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@ozy741 There is a bone sticking out between the second and third bone. Just move it.

I show it at 4:50.

Make sure you are in pose mode.

[Joebro097]

where can i get the blocks?

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@Joebro097 The blocks come along with the download. Simply download the file from the link in the description and you will get both the rig and the blocks.

[robertletsplays]

i feel stupid for asking but how do you move the camera around? i try right clicking and holding it nothing happens.

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@robertletsplays To rotate hold you mouse wheel down and move your mouse. To move hold shift and your mouse wheel and move the mouse. If you are new I really recommend you look at a few tutorials from Blender Cookie to get the hang of Blender.

[MisterFro9]

Bwian! Free Bwian :P

Oh i'm mean.

[neilens]

what is this? Like skinEdit but with animation editing too? :)

I will like it cos I like geraldo ;D but tbh I have no idea what is happening xD Maybe when I get my PC upgrade in a couple of weeks I will come back to this xD I don't have a desktop atm and my laptop is too shit too even play minecraft :(

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@neilens Blender is a 3D software, it is not specifically for MineCraft. You can use it in order to create animations and pictures.

[iammrhellohowareyou]

@GeraldoCockerhan Lol, you are over 100 years old xD

[iammrhellohowareyou]

Wow, If i even tryed to learn blender i think i would be overcome with frustration.. lol :D

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@iammrhellohowareyou It does take a while. But its not too hard and it is pretty fun(ish) actually.

[iammrhellohowareyou]

@GeraldoCockerhan Haha cool, but you being quite fond of these types of programs, (Pohotoshop, sony vegas ect.) it may seem rather easy for you :D but im glad to see a video from you :D i thought you died or something D:

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@iammrhellohowareyou Haha, no reason to be worried. I'm not planning on dying just quite.

[jigarbov]

I wish I could take the time to learn blender. I'd love to be able to make my own animations.

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@jigarbov It really wasn't too difficult (though minecraft is all blocks so it wasn't too hard). If you are ever interested, try BlenderCookie or BlenderGuru.

[gameking008]

very nice man!

[GeraldoCockerhan]

@gameking008 Thank you! Quite a bit of time went into making the rig.
