Character commission

FreyaTheCat

Hello,

don´t know if it is OK to ask here, but..

I´d like to have some specific characters as genesis 8 models.

I also have them as fbx / xps / mesh

Tried it myself severals times but nothing worked and it´s frustrating.

Anybody willing to help / do it?

Thanks and greetings

It sounds like you're trying to convert files from XNALara.

First up, that's getting pretty shaky on legal grounds (most XPS models are ripped from video games without permission, so you need to be very careful what you do with them).

Secondly, these models are almost certainly not already based on the Genesis 8 architecture (and if they ARE, then it's definitely into the realm of legal trouble to get them via XPS rather than the store), so it would take a long and tedious process to copy their shapes over to the Genesis 8 mesh.

Having done it before (albeit with personal characters from video games, rather than with XPS models), I cannot honestly say I would recommend it. If you particularly want to use those characters for art, you may in many ways be better off sticking with XPS as a program (particularly as a lot of people now export through Blender in order to use Cycles to render, which offers reasonably comparable performance to Iray).
