Cute... Maybe one day people will make a thing so that we can make animations for the objects...

I love that! Did you make it from scratch (I know yousa said that) or did you modify it from an already made-object? Adn what 3D prog do you use to edit?

I made it from scratch using AC3D. Glad you like it! :D

That is very cool. I was trying to find *GOOD* prog for editing/creating objects. Milkshape is a pain for me...I can never get the right view or select the correct vertices. You did such a good job. Very nice once again =D

Great job on the sled!

In Milkshape, you can select in the 3d window by holding the [alt] key while selecting.

Just put on thw Wireframe Ovelay first, or change it to a wireframe display.

I like AC3D, but it's not free ($59.95). There's a free trial, but the trial doesn't let you work with .obj files. You can get a good idea of the interface though.

You might also try Anim8or. It's free, and I it exports/imports obj files (look under the "Object" menu).
Wings3d is also free, and I've done some playing around with that- good program, unusual interface. Enjoy

Dr. Pixel has some excellent tutorials on using Milkshape if you decide that's the way you want to go!

I will definitely try one of those because I know how to edit in Milkshape, but sometimes you have to change the view to select a vertices that the mouse is *clearly* on and I can't actually tell how the mesh looks until I waste time putting it in BodyShop or the game...I was just trying to create a mesh yesterday, but I couldn't get all the vertices perfectly straight and it loked crappy. So thanks I'm gonna try these others.

great job! sadly, i'll never get to use a real sled living in Houston... unless it's on one of those man-made snow hills, which is a pathetic excuse for snow. so i must live vicariously through my Sims.

That's exactly the idea of the Sims anyway, so I'd say you got it just right! Even during the hottest Summer day up here, I still always have Sims who are living in Winter!
