3D animated Pippi will be like the 3D dancers in the Ouendan/EBA games. She will be a new feature placed into osu! co-aside storyboards/videos/etc.Agent LucasJay wrote:

So should we consider this dead, or....?
Seriously, this is like the third time I've had to necro-post in this topic.

I've finally decided to completely replace the UV map/texture I made 6 months ago, and added a lot of details in the process. Most of the changes are subtle, but I feel they add a lot to the bigger picture. Also, this lets me use a few tricks to make her look better in-game. I've also made some more progress with the animations.
Assuming I don't run into any unforeseen problems, I expect to finish the whole thing before Christmas.

Does that mean we get ingame dancers somewhere around Christmas?

Only if peppy/Intermezzo add dancer support in time, and I figure out how to export everything properly. I have a good feeling about this, though.

Status update: I was changing a bunch of things when I made the previous post (replaced the hand with a new one, messed with proportions, changed a few poses), and all I have left to do now is fix the head. Then I lost motivation for a week or so, and right now I'm busy modeling props for a TF2 map.
I'll eventually need to create a decent animu head for that project as well, so I'll get started on it as soon as I'm done with the Stallman statuette I'm working on.

Is it the /3/ collab map?
Have you thought about collaborating or passing the project on to someone else? If you're always too busy or "lacking motivation", you could find someone who wants to do this.
Bumping to celebrate almost a month with no updates. Loginer also didn't respond to the previous post or the direct PM I sent him, so if anybody higher up wants to try contacting him, that might work.

I never said that, but he would definitely be more likely to quickly respond if it was Peppy or someone PMing him. He might just have forgotten.awp wrote:

Real life > Designing a 3D version of a mascot for an online game
Which is exactly why I want to see his thoughts on passing the project on to someone else. He's been posting for months about life and other projects, so why not find someone with a looser schedule?Daru wrote:

Ugh.
I'm done with the other stuff, so I'll get started on the head today. If any skilled animator is willing to help me with the dance moves, let me know.

Thought it was about time I showed myself around here for a bit with a small taste of some new Pippi art. Nothing major though...
Well, look who it is, bro

Long time, eh?SO, I was thinking Pippi needs an entourage, I hope Peppy reads this thread
I had some ideas.Now that's adorable. <3 Are those rough lines intentional? 
They add to the image quite nicely.
It's good to see you again!
...Though your site seems down?

Let's just deal with this. Who else is for giving the project to someone else? Loginer has had chance after chance and all he has proven is that he's either eternally too busy or just doesn't give a shit.
Loginer doesn't have entitlement to the project. He never did. He was just the only one who actually remained committed for all that time. Some people with considerable talents did some along and produce some prototype, unfinished models, but they were in and out as fast as osu! port devs
If you want to do it, go ahead. If you know somebody else who can do it, have them do it. Loginer may post in this thread once every four months but that's still more than any other modeler. There's no need or reason to fire Loginer since this isn't a job, and he has no monopoly on it. If somebody else wants to do it, they should do it, and their only challenge would be to get it done before Loginer does, which doesn't seem like it would be difficult. But I see no reason to "give the project to somebody else" unless they come along it's already doneBehonkiss wrote:

I will, however, un-sticky this thread, so it will float away into the river of time, since this is the same old thread that was used to design the character, and really any new model or even any progress on Loginer's ought to be presented in a new thread by this point.
mm.. i know a few thing about 3d modeling and how it can be used on osu,
i guess not every map will have dancers, only new ones
first you´ll need a ( example 100 frames animation [some engines work with this style]) and... frames 11 - 20 are a jump, and like storyboard, and using the bpm, in something like a storyboard editor, using the function "jump", will make the dancer jump, so the other frames could be used for, another dance moves like, 1 - 10 hands up, 21 - 30, get down, and thats not a freaking difficult work at all, and you´ll have the freedom to make custom dances, but you´ll not be able to make custon steps ,
this kind of system, doesnt need bone system on the 3d model.
it will need only 1 animation because the player will have all the steps loaded, and i guess it will lag less than have separate files
about the luigihann method, i dont believe it will work, or, it will work, but it wont be good - looked
ahh another thing, it CANT BE RENDERED!, it will look like 2-D image.
i hope this help

There are really no designated artists or animators, so go ahead and contribute whatever you can.XxshapuxX wrote:

Yeah, people are still waiting to see 3D sexy model of Pippi. x3

The model's been finished for ages, actually. The reason I haven't made a new post here in six months is because the project's been at a standstill since then. Now that we finally have someone volunteering to help me with animation, we might just see some significant progress in the near future.ShaggoN wrote:

Progress which would be displayed in a new thread.
Not sure why you posted a July update when the thread is still locked. :V
We can unlock it if Loginer's back. Though it might be nice for Loginer to start a new thread if he chooses
Cool! n.n
Nice necropost.
