How to Scale a pep file

[SergantTinkers1]

So, question: Does pepakura measure from the LONGEST distances (by aspects of length, width, AND depth), or just by certain points? Thanks!

[iceagonakilya]

@SergantTinkers1 Yes

[iceagonakilya]

@TheAc1219 use a flash drive and take the program with you

[TheScullleader]

@TheAc1219 print it as a doc x file or a pdf then take that to the stationary that is simpler

[naminemeg]

Hey, awesome video. Just have one question. How do I get this human model thingy? Can you make a tutorial on this as well please?

Ps: keep up the great work with videos like that. Was the most helpful one on here. ;)

[godofchaos90]

@godofchaos90 Or could you scale it for me? That would be really awesome. All I need is the scale number. Right?

[shadow0imposter]

Hey man evry time i try to scale it like that my pieces come out all the same size and inside each other plz help i havnt been able 2 build my armor yet can u make another vid for that?

[machinegunjonny1]

jon

[iceagonakilya]

@machinegunjonny1 you'll have to edit the model with a 3d program like 3ds to get them in the right place. then re-unfold the models, so eventually yes you will need the paid version

[machinegunjonny1]

@iceagonakilya

thanks man do you know the name of the 3d program that i would have to use

[nadeemspage]

@iceagonakilya could yoou do a video on this?



[machinegunjonny1]

how do you put the parts togeather where they need to go to get a full body model i have all the parts to the iron man but i do not know how to put the armor all togeather as one full body to scale the whole thing at once please let me know thanks

[bizelman]

dude i have pepakura viewer 3 and there is only 1 row of toolbar at the top and all videoes show 2 and need the secound one to scale can u help me out with this

[supercoolmario123]

it wont let me do more than 1 piece on the screen at a time

[union131]

this helps a lot, thank you. I owe you one

[cartoonkeith1]

ok this is clear but i have one question. So to change the scale of any part or before you do you put in the height of the person in for the whole armor. But what if i just want to change the helmet to my head size? what do i so that it will fit my head?

[Blaylock1988]

Hey, how do you move the objects around in the 3D plane so that they are in the correct position to make your "human model"?

[chainmailler]

How do you do the human model thing? Do you need the paid version?

[OhItsMattime]

"cause i always like to start with the chest" LOL same dude. same.

[TheDreamcoil]

Wow, Thanks man this is quite handy to new 405th and Pep users much appreciated!

[MrPacmanXD]

hey.

once i have scaled my armour its really wierd when i print,

i move it around to fit the paper but for some reason it doesnt print the whole thing?

is it because my file is to big?

[TheSlashed1]

okay i scaled it and tryed to print but it only printed the numbers what did i do rong need help asap

[Aryana70]

Where do you find the human model in PDO, I've found it on Obj or Gmax, but they wont open for me in the pepakura designer. Am I doing something wrong

[SniperSchool101]

when i import the files they overland how do i fix this

[SnakeFang217]

Hey, I have a problem I got some pep files but they don't excatly line up some are to big, some go to the left and right, you get what I'm saying. I just want to make sure I scale them good.

[compta38]

nice desktop!

[XVI0001]

where do you get the human model?

[shadowrat67]

how do you make a human model in pep can you let us know how to do it

[zombieslayer2100]

is the pepakura designer virus free

[FelipexProductions]

@zombieslayer2100 i have been using it for a year now and there have been no problems :D

[Grif642]

Im interested in making an Iron man Suit but i cant find the files any where, do you know where you got that chestpiece?

[cr1tterp0wer]

everytime i try to import a pdo, the image appears inside another piece, like they merged into one, and i cant figure out how to drag them away from each other. also if i upload certain files like the bicep, it is significantly bigger than all the other pieces combine. :(

[TheShozaya]

i hope by the time im done with my armor i will have hit 6'8 6'6 right now and my dad is 6'11 i wonder if he will look like a rea lspartan?

[chankailong]

hey how doi scall attachemants, im making a helmet and i there is a attachement so how do i scale attachements

[FachmannGamer01]

iv just came across pepakura and iv got the pepakura veiwer 3 and i have no option in file to import the other designs, if you could give me some advice or tell me how i can do this, thank you if you if you can get round to messaging me back :) thanks

[TheMightySamsonite]

how many millimeters is it smart to oversize. I have made a few helmets and other parts and scaled them to exact size and they end up being super tight to fitting and now that I am restarting my armour I figure its best to know. Thanks

[iceagonakilya]

@TheMightySamsonite I usually over size by 1 full inch, this gives me 1/2 inch on all sides for padding, and shrinkage that occurs during the sanding/ detailing process.

[Letthemagiccometoyou]

can i still do the scaling with out the head or no.when i try to get the head in,everything goes small.And is there a place/site where all the pep files are together because I found IM2 pep but it has no shoes.By the way thanks for all the info its great and it helps a lot.

[iceagonakilya]

@Letthemagiccometoyou best to have all the parts

[kalenhouse]

where can i get mark iv leg files

[iceagonakilya]

@kalenhouse 405yh dot com

[kalenhouse]

where can i get mark iv leg files

[dannyryanp]

What was the scale you got from putting all those pieces together? So, when you put all the pieces together and put in the height of 1,829mm what scale came out of that? I'm doing a pep project, but when I import all the files into one file, they are not all where they are supposed to be. Now I have to scale them all one at a time, so could you please tell me what number you got from that? Thanks.

[flopez425]

what do u press to scale all armor parts like u did where it shows up all parts together ??? how do u get human model?

[drcoloso2099]

what version are you using of papekura viewer?? mine dosnt have that thing "File/import" thing that yours has...

[iceagonakilya]

@drcoloso2099 you have to have the paid version for the file import/export and save features

[iceagonakilya]

@drcoloso2099 you have to have the paid version for the file import/export and save features

[drcoloso2099]

@iceagonakilya DOOH!!!!!! thanks!!

[albinomustang]

[richardlynch77]

Nice. Very well explain. I tried following the thread on the 405th website and i thought I had it right, but screwed a few bits up. this makes it nice and clear. Cheers!!

[kruelt1]

Thankyou so much i have downloaded all the files for WAR MACHINE but was stuck at the scaling phase,this has helped immeasurably .Top work.

[dragonbreathstinks]

When I import a file for the halo wars armor the helmet is REALLY small inside the chest piece. How do I fix that?

[iceagonakilya]

@dragonbreathstinks talking to modelers now about making that tutorial.

[owen12000]

@iceagonakilya ok i try to do what ur doing but it doesnt work it wont let me make a human model

[Letthemagiccometoyou]

@owen12000 you need to open one file first then go to import file.I had the same prob..

[John2daextreme]
