Subject: Mirroring Tool?

Do Carrara 1.1 have the capability to move vertices in an imported human face object in separate direction like mirroring on one side or multiple side? Waldoo

No but it can reproduce half of your model in exact mirrored fashion after you finish it. Litst has published two tutorials which use this technique. You can check out his site or purchase the Carrara/Raydream resource CD which has both tutorials on it. I'd hold off on the CD thing though because I'm hoping version 1.1 will be available any day now. It's in review and final check. Also, Digital Carvers Guild is working on a project/plugin which will address these issues but I'm not completely aware of all the details. -Kix

Kix, Waldoo, The DCG mirroring tool is called Project Gemini, you can download and try it out from our site. Best regards, Eric Winemiller Digital Carvers Guild 3D extensions for Carrara http://digitalcarversguild.com

Eric, Is it possible to import head obj into Gemini? I could not find Edit|Gemini in the modelling room to synch up the sides. Did I miss something? Waldoo

Waldoo, The Edit|Gemini function is only available on Carrara 2.1. You'd have to do an export to OBJ and then import on C1.1. Best regards, Eric Winemiller Digital Carvers Guild 3D extensions for Carrara http://digitalcarversguild.com

I need a tutorial or direction how to import head obj from Poser into Carrara and use Gemini tool for it. I asked that because when i converted the head into vertex modeler it turned out into very small obj with disortation points and polygons. So please tell me how to do the right process. Waldoo

Waldoo, I'm not sure what the specifics are about for importing and using Poser objects in Carrara, but I'm pretty sure I've seen some tutorials around in the past. Depending on what you are doing try "Carrara Poser" or "poser morph targets in carrara" for search criteria in google. That should bring up some poser/carrara tutorials. One note, if you were looking at using Gemini to help with poser morph targets, it won't. Gemini rearranged the vertices and facets so wouldn't be any good for that. It would be great for helping to build a new poser model. Best regards, Eric Winemiller Digital Carvers Guild 3D extensions for Carrara http://digitalcarversguild.com
