Flea Market

[Medicinehorse7]

Hello Fellow Artisians,

As an admirer of many styles and Genres of the 3d world I propose that we establish this thread as a Swap Meet.

The purpose is establish a friendly area to post resources for fellow artisians to download in exchange for an item(s) of equal or greater value.

Since we all share in a wonderful fellowship of creation, I would anticipate that we all have areas of expertise for example;

Skin -- alphas
Claws of hooved animals, Horns of various types, tails, ears, eyes, Lips, etc...
Textures -- furs, skin, leather etc..
Material Creation
Image plane ready PSD animals, birds, characters etc.

I think you get the Idea. Let the swaps begin!:D

With the wonder of the morph comes the speed of the gift of Creation!

[Erklaerbar]

there are some free alphas on my page http://www.notone.ch
although only a few skin ones, might be helpful to some

[Medicinehorse7]

Erklaerbar,

Thanks alot I will dig for more donations donate more in a little while.

[cannedmushrooms]

Look
down VV

[Twitchmonkey]

Uploading to mushroom's site seems like a good idea. The only alpha I've got is the horn from the Zclassroom tutorials, but I suppose it might be of some use to those that don't want to make it themselves. I can also probably throw together some skin textures.

Edit: I've uploaded the alpha to your site. The filename is kind of large, but I think to make this work, we'll have to be fairly precise on the filename, so people don't have to download a bunch of alphas they don't want to find they one they do.

[Medicinehorse7]

Cannedmushrooms,

Thank you for the assistance that should help tremendously.

[Medicinehorse7]

Cannedmushrooms,

Is there a way to Catagorize your download spot?

[cannedmushrooms]

Further down VVV

[cannedmushrooms]

Almost there VVV

[cannedmushrooms]

Yep still Further VVV
(ps a delete feature might be nice admins!!)

[Medicinehorse7]

Cannedmushrooms,

While your at it, is there a way to store evryones ZDOCS, ZTLS, .OBj files etc..

I have 3 Tera space I can designate for this as well ---- If were gonna do it lets do it right!

PM me for details!

[cannedmushrooms]

trying a new script

Should be a way. I have several scripts in mind. Gallery2 was running to slow for high res images

[cannedmushrooms]

Ok try this out and see how you like it.
It simple and easy.

When your done put this in the header of the post.
So far its pretty freeken amazing

[Twitchmonkey]

So, I'm still confused. Is this just for textures at the moment, or can we upload alphas, materials, etc.?

[Medicinehorse7]

Twitchmonkey,

Its still a baby ---let it grow. daddy will fix it huh cannedmushrooms!

I tried to establish a sensible file order and had some probs as well.

When I did upload 12 images I got this

[Twitchmonkey]

I can be patient, I just want to know where we're at. This should be very useful once the kinks are worked out.

[Medicinehorse7]

I know, I have a big image library to share. 500 gigs and growing.

I envision something like this: you want to change a feature on a Character, look up the feature and wham get 50 top grade features to use as a morph target.

Claws, hooves, fish scales etc... they have a relatively similar way of being made. it would be nice to have a selection.

[cannedmushrooms]

Ya got to poke around the PHP code today and see if I can tweek it a little.

the 2 meg upload thing is a pain but 2 megs looks like the most you can do through php without memory errors.

so bigger pictures must be

2megs
and
uploaded 1 at a time

I can also insert the pictures via FTP which is another option I'm looking at;)

BTW i moved it to
www.houseoftutorials.net/Zfleamarket (http://www.houseoftutorials.net/Zfleamarket)
http://www.houseoftutorials.net/Zfleamarket/zp-core/admin.php

texture
texture
had to uninstall the other beta scripts. This way it doesnt look like I missspelled flea;)

The BISON are sweet

keep uploading

[SalmonGod]

this looks like it's shaping up to be a great resource... it would be great to see a collection of base meshes... keep it up guys... I don't have much to offer, but I'm sure I can find something

[Medicinehorse7]

cannedmushrooms,

Is there a way to create a storage for models, Docs, ZTLs etc... ?

[cannedmushrooms]

ZIP format only on them
And under 2 megs

The 2 meg limit is set down by my host through there PHP settings.

Usually I would edit the PHP.ini to get around this.
Problem is they don't allow access to it.


But ya just make an album and it should allow it to upload a zip

[cannedmushrooms]

Added a huge amount of textures today.

Went on an adventure with a Nikon Camera capturing all sorts of cool textures.

http://www.houseoftutorials.net/Zfleamarket/

[Medicinehorse7]

cannedmushrooms,

I added some Buffalo hides and Bison shots as well.

Hey guys lets promo the market when we can!

[cannedmushrooms]

Hey medicine I'm doing a project right now where I need any hide you can get your hands on.
Deer / moose / Bandits (racoons)

If its fuzzy upload it.

If you need anything weird that you can think of in michigan as far as textures let me know.

I cannot believe more peeps arn't donating to this

Also in order for the alpha to work within Zbrush on the site you need to convert them to PSD

[Medicinehorse7]

cannedmushrooms,

Check this link, http://www.fursource.com/fur-pelts-skins-c-77.html,

this one, http://www.kottlersafrica.com/products2/artifacts/zebraskins/index.htm,

and this one http://www.chichesterinc.com/

that should keep you in the fur awhile. I am still uploading to my server so my contributions may have to trickle in for a while.

Did you try ebay?

[Blaine91555]

This is a great idea :tu: A shame about the size limitations though.

My Wife is a photographer and I have the same equipment. I could offer lots of texture and wildlife shots but the sizes average around 15 Mb. I guess it could be done with compressed .tif's split into multiple zip files.

Edited to say:
I misunderstood and what I had in mind would not work. Wrong file types and the file sizes would be too large. I could make up some low res references and some tile-able textures to add. I'll work on that. I've been wanting to set up a library of stuff anyway.

I've got to get off my dead butt and get some hard drives added to my new computer so I can get something done. I'm off to look for the drives, it is now my goal for the day. No work today and as my Wife says, I have "ants in my pants".

[Medicinehorse7]

cannedmushrooms,

Is there any other alternate to the size limitations?

[Medicinehorse7]

Blaine91555,

I saw your site -wonderful work - perhaps we can work a trade for something.

[lemonnado]

I have some very valuable pdf files which I would be glad to upload. Would the gallery accept .zip with .pdf content?
Rainer

[Medicinehorse7]

lemonnado,

Canned Mushrooms is the man to answer that question, since he is the one that set up the server. I assume that you can but there is a 100 meg load limit.

[cannedmushrooms]

roger, Rainer "check your private msgs" over


your part of the cool club now;)

Zips work great never tried a PDF yet but with that info I gave you can try it out would be curious to know how it works

[lemonnado]

Wow... part of the cool kids ehhhh. Good as long as I don't get called 'Ashley' or so...

Well, I uploaded the Loomis Books. A fantastic collection dedicated to the public domain by the Author in his last will. Our Super-Shroom has to move the contents to a better location on that server, but I am sure it will be a great resource for the community.

Thanks to Mr. Loomis wherever you are!

Rainer

[cannedmushrooms]

Lemo thanks for the public domain.

You should check it out again also I think you will be suprised;)

Your mickey ears and Hana Montana Tee shirt will be mailed to you soon. "Compliments of the cool kids"

[lemonnado]

Your mickey ears and Hana Montana Tee shirt will be mailed to you soon.

Finally something my Mastiff Dog can wear during walks!
Rainer

[Medicinehorse7]

lemonnado,

That is a very generous thing you have done for us. Thank everyone for the materials. I still want to post Models and parts cannedmushrooms is there a way anyone?

[cannedmushrooms]

The parts must be Zipped
thats all that is required. But the cap of 2 megs will leave it very hard to open up the doors to models.

I really think base meshes might be a good thing for people to share.

It would be like a canvas;)

base meshes can be in obj format and then zipped.
Other than that, thats the only idea I have right now.
All php scripts have that 2 meg cap on them. Its a server side issue that my host won't bend on.

[Medicinehorse7]

cannedmushrooms, I tried to upload a zip mesh under 2 megs and all I uploaded was the picture.

[cannedmushrooms]

bah your right

it makes a great gallery but zips wont show up.

I thought for sure zengallery supported zips.

Ill see if I have any other php script for models

[spaceboy412]

i'm trying to find it, but there is a way to put archives into jpg formats using winrar

heres one link:

[Medicinehorse7]

Hey guys,

Uploaded some new stuff. It is a work in progress!


http://www.houseoftutorials.net/Zfleamarket/

[Medicinehorse7]

Does anyone have some alphas that would work on horn?
