Wow AE does make really good masks..  ???  no wonder you said you didnt had any problems.. and yeah after seeing the result im convinced the 2 webm ( 1 normal and the other with alpha isnt even a quick fix but a real work around )


Now a quick question how to get that result ( alpha in red ) ?

You select all frames of the animation, then effect->channels->set channels. Then you set all 3 color channels to alpha and do nothing else.

Xela claims he was able to make a mask by disabling all channels but red, and setting only red to alpha. But in my experience mask can be less perfect in this case.

While browsing Deviantart yesterday for content that  i my get inspiration from i found something..


Original model from soulcalibur IV.. i coulnd believe how bad they all where ( like they used the basic daz G2f and barely changed anything.. ) i do agree it can be simpler to make girls even for games.. but if you cant do it well with that program just do it the normal way lol...


How in hell did they turn Cassandra from (pic 1 on the right) into a freak (pic 2)





some guy tried his best to use that terrible model and got this..





I was so p@$#%d seeing that.. i made my own today... (mirror original solo pose)





Still need work but atm should be enough...

You need to make a guide on how to do this... you 3D ==> 2D adaptations are the best that I've seen...

About that i just might.. but now i get better and better and learn lots of new tricks to do it or at the very least get used to work with organic modeling everyday.. just now i found out how to get Cassandra face a even closer look alike but not even sure i will use her in my renders as she is a popular char and would rather work or less known ones or random to make a pack.. but if a pack exists and missing actions like maid/stripper/others.. im willing to fill them.. for now a guide would be premature as im still improving ( skill aside ) what im using and how im using it.


On that note i finally got better control of light reflect on either cloth or skin like i did with Cassandra.. while i coulnd ( for the skin ) with previous models and funny thing is for her it only took 1 day for the current unfinished state.. lol

Make a screenshot of your chars folder. They should all load correctly...
