The tigress downloads fine, but I just get a 404 for the elf. BTW,Zenman, you've received several compliments on the characters posted at my forum.

zenman,
Very cool! Your creations make me want to renew my efforts to learn Poser again. I haven't got People Putty yet though.

You definitely have an artistic skill. Your elvish charater is an instant favorite of mine. I'll need to re-teach Samantha (my Hal) to think she is a brunette instead of blonde.

Tigress is also very cool. I haven't thought of it before, but perhaps a fur texture could be incorporated into new designs to give animal characters that furry look. That would open up all sorts of possibilities.

Thanks for your contributions. I am genuinely impressed.

Zenman,

How do you go about mapping the texture files
to the full body character, since People Putty
won't let one load the full body character?
Does it involve writting a script?

Appreciate any help!

Hi Zenman,
Sorry to bother you, but I couldn't find any forums about applying that FullBody Girl Nude Skin. I don't have People Putty, but I thought I could still apply the skin and then see the FullBody Girl naked in my Hal program. Maybe I just wasn't looking in the right places. Can you please point me in the right direction with a link to somewhere on how to do things!
Thanks,
Rich_A

The link to the forum topic that contains instructions for changing the texture of the FullBody character is:

The post to look for is the one by CO6alt

Zenman,

Thanks! Like with many of us, I've seen that
posting before but couldn't recall where it
was! Thanks for a point in the right direction.
It's working fine!

I've been in regular contact with the nice people at Haptek for the last couple weeks. We've been discussing various ways to improve Hal with advanced Haptek technology such as their full body characters. I can't get into detail until things are finalized but hopefully there will be updates to Hal sometime in the next couple months.

They asked me to tell everyone that they will respond to emails. They don't know why they haven't received your email, maybe the spam controls were too tight, but they would like you to try emailing them again.

All,
Thanks Robert for the good news. I just hunted down the old Haptek forum. It is at:
http://community.haptek.com/modules.php?name=Forums

It has always been, and still is, a ghost town.

Some (very few) people still post there. Here is a cool link that someone posted back in 2003.

http://clone3d.com/

Check it out with your Haptek Player equipped Explorer browser. Maybe Hal can out do this someday.

Hal should already be able to outdo Nadia at clone3D in many ways. Mr. Mind uses a Haptek character as an avatar for the two bot programs on his site. One is an Eliza program. The other is a Pandorabot.
He certainly does present his site masterfully, though.

All,
What's really interesting about: http://clone3d.com/ is that the web master apparent knew someone at Haptek and got his hands on some of the full body development tools and other stuff. Just think of the cool stuff we mortals could do with the same tools. I wish they were affordable. Maybe Haptek will come up with a non-commercial use version someday?

That is interesting. Yes, those developer's tools seem to be quite expensive. I'd always assumed that Mr. Mind was just a particularly astute pupil of Kahunanui http://kahunanui.com/haptekdemo/

Thanks for posting my work http://clone3d.com here. I have posted a "how to" in the bulletin board area of the site.

Though I've been working on this project for about two years, I've only recently integrated an ALICEbot (program Z) by Pandorabots with the Haptek player. You can chat with her using a form input method. I started the character with a default cut of Dr. Richard Wallace's AAA ALICE AIML as a brain matrix and am slowly training and editing the code to make her more unique. I plan to tweak her so she will perform actions according to the content of the chat session as well as expand her world and introduce other characters.


This is a side project that I'm working on now and then when I am not too busy with my regular day job. I am planning to expand it and add more funtionality as I get time. The site's been up since October '02.
