Skoping Query...

[cmdrkoenig67]

HI Freedom Folks,

I'd like to skope a torch into the free hands of a few meshes...The torch would basically be a medium length stick (a wand or short staff or something like that) with flame fx on the end and the ambient lighting of the pumpkin lanterns of Red Oktober's hide-out.

I can Skope/hex the stick part of the torch, but my question is...How can I Skope in the fire fx and the light?

Thank you to those who can assist me.

Being at work, I cant give you specific instructions, but Ive done similar things before, just find a mesh that has the flame emitter/lighting that you like (like the glowing jack o lanterns) and copy the relevant nodes. It probably will take some trial and error, but its really not that different from any other kind of skoping.

I was considering trying to take the flame and lighting from one of El Diablo's hands...I'll give it a try (I'll just have to remember to make copies of the original mesh, in case I kill it...LOL!).

I would suggest using Black Hand by Ren, as it has a 'torch' with an fx already. You can replace the actual handheld torch of the mesh with any piece you decide.. much easier than moving and positioning fx's.

Any idea where I can find Ren's Black Hand mesh?...I can't seem to locate him.
