I can't help with the modeling, but I could perhaps help with renewing the
overall structure of how the include file works.
Right now there is a default body hardcoded in the include file, but you can
exchange the body parts. I'd prefer to have the model separated from the
rest of the include file, so you can easily plug in any model you desire.
You also have to pose the character using rotations (forward kinematics).
I'd prefer if you could decide yourself if you want to use rotations, or
some other way of control, such as inverse kinematics. Thus, I think the
pose interface of the include should be separated from the rest.
Basically, what I'm thinking of is a very generic include file that lets you
use customized versions of almost everything, like models, poses,
interfaces, etc. Not much would be left of the original BlobMan, and the
include file probably should have a new name because the models don't have
to be made of blobs, but that's not a bad thing is it?
If you're interested in my assistance, I could design a new structure for
the include file in details.

Feel free to proceed, Rune. Sounds like an excellent idea! :) Will you be
needing bm 4.2, or do you have it already?
PS: How'd your holiday go?

I think I have it already, but I'll mail you if at some point I need it.

It went splendid, thank you. :)
Better not say anymore in this group... ;)

That'll be up to someone else to add on later. It sure shouldn't be
required. ;)

BTW, this may go hand in hand with my own personal experiments. Hav you seen
my latest animation in povray.binaries.animations?

Sounds like a good idea to me =)

I just saw this note. I was thinking about "releasing" it to the public real
soon anyway. My proclivities might be to put it on a web page and say it's free
for general use, including what you're gonna do, rather than to just "hand to
you." That doesn't mean I wouldn't help your team, it's just my proclivity...
Ongoing and possible improvements to my characters:
1) clothes (now has one-piece pajamas!)
2) better hands
3) copying Rune's "walk in a circle" algo...

I'm a bit confused. The discussion here is about Peter Houston's BlobMan,
but you seem to be referring to your own blob character? Do you mean that
your character could be used in the development of BlobMan? Or...? I
probably have understood you wrong, so I'd appreciate if you could clear
things up.

Note: The overall structure change of BlobMan I'm thinking of will take a
long time, but the modeling of BlobMan can be worked on independently of
that, so if you have some blob modelers ready to improve the BlobMan model,
I say go ahead! :)
