Too Many Ideas - Archive for 2006

[Insert Own Title Here]
Tuesday, August 8th, 2006Absolutely wiped out from work today. After last nights burst of creativity tonight didn’t result in anywhere near as many words on the page. I have moved things foward a little but I’m not back to the action yet. I should be able to drop the hero back into mortal danger soon but for now […]

Past the Hump in Fairytale Noir
Tuesday, August 8th, 2006I’d found the hump in Fairytale Noir. That awkward bit in the middle of the story where I can’t make my mind up if it is worth finishing or not. Words haven’t been spilling onto the page. I sat down tonight intending to spend half an hour trying to do something with it then do […]

Object Sequence Loader Python Script for Vue
Sunday, August 6th, 2006A python script for Vue 5 Infinite (it might work in Vue 4 Pro but I haven’t tested it) that loads a sequence of 3d files using each one in turn as the next step in an animation. To use it the script must be placed in the directory containing the files to be imported […]

Not Kim's Eyelashes Either
Friday, August 4th, 2006I was browsing through some clip art on a Computer Arts Projects cover disc when I came across the slightly odd picture above. It reminded me of the eyelashes that are not Kim’s but that appear as her avatar and on her Romance Fiction web site.

Friday, August 4th, 2006Thanks to TeeBee for posting on her blog about the new issue of Enchanted Ramblings which I’ve been enjoying reading tonight.

Vue 6 Python?
Thursday, August 3rd, 2006I’ve watched the trailer; I’ve read the web pages; and I’m definitely excited about Vue 6. No word on python support in Vue 6 yet but I’m sure E-on will let us know more as the release approaches.

Household Sound Effects
Tuesday, August 1st, 2006I was happily enjoying the silliness that is CSI: Miami when I heard an odd bell like noise. At first I thought it was some strange choice of symbolic sound effect. Then I thought it was someone moving lots of bottles or ringing hand bells in the street neither of which made any sense. The […]

Serious and Organised Revisited
Saturday, July 29th, 2006I’ve been revisiting my notes for Serious and Organised after enough time for the ideas to mature a little more. After a bit of editing to cut fluff I got down to writing a background to go with it drawing on the classic 70s and 80s cop shows for inspiration. A bit more polishing and […]

Virtual Fashion for Poser Settings
Friday, July 28th, 2006I just got an e-mail asking about the settings I used with Virtual Fashion for Poser to get a cloth simulation that didn’t take days to run as mentioned in my earlier Virtual Fashion for Poser post. In case anyone else was wondering here are the settings I used… The key things I’ve found to […]
