What's Hyper Real Setup?

[Krisonrik]

I have some one who need a hyper real setup rigging for character. I have never head of such thing and wonder what's the deal with it? Is it any different form normal character skeleton rigging?

[MoP]

i don't know what hyper real means
but if they want a realistic rig, i'd assume it includes stuff like accurately deforming muscles when joints rotate, and muscles flex, etc.

[Daz]

Yeah, I would take it to mean a rig that deforms extremely realistically. I would ask them perhaps. Either way, assume it means extremely high end rigging.

[Neo_God]

No...more realistic than realistic! HYPER REALISTIC!

[MoP]

the muscles move HYPERLY

[Krisonrik]

how did this topic end up like this XD? Anyway thanks for shareing your knowledge... deformation... lol I haven't even touched on that yet.

I would assume that they were referring hyper realistic as being "extremely realistic" though I have heard hyper realistic to be in reference to something like a comic book character who has muscles that are large than life, exagerated proportions etc.

I think your client has been on the alias site too much /images/graemlins/wink.gif

personally, i don't see how you can apply the concepts of a full y featured film res rig to a game rig.
i've yet to see pose based deformations, non linear or squad based skin sliding, corrective sillouhette blend shapes (the list goes on) in any game engine other than the odd nvidia high end demo (and that was pushing the term 'realtime' somewhat).

well....the place i used to work a long long time ago would ignore some bones...clavicles and things of that nature. so it could mean throwing away old school habits like that. could also mean having muscles that actually bulge when swinging a weapon or something. dunno cuz. do we really need anything to be hyper these days....aren't the kids hyper enough?

My mistake. i presumed the realtime aspect was implicit.

I would suggest what this person is after is an exaggeratedly idealised character... your standard issue game character in other words.

[MoP]

Jackablade: True, and that may be the case... but bear in mind that people often don't know what they're talking about /images/graemlins/smile.gif
