Babylon 5 Legacy LightWave3D Collection
In an attempt to preserve some of the legacy of LightWave3D's history in the 3D and VFX world and its contributions to some of the most icon sci-fi television shows of the last 30 years; Liberty3d.com is making an effort archive and make available to the LightWave3D community many fan built assets from the series Babylon 5 (B5). In this free to download collection, there are dozens of objects and scene set ups that will allow you to reproduce many wonderful visuals from the mid-1990s series. This is a great collection for anyone with a copy of LightWave3D going back to version 5.6 (if not earlier but we haven't tested this) to LightWave3D 2015.3. Later versions of LightWave3D may cause some pretty serious breakage of certain textures, and - volumetric engine or weapons fire effects rigs, so be warned! This doesn't mean that they cannot be reproduced using later versions of LightWave3D. They can, it just takes a bit of work. While we can't list everything here, these are some highlights. Included in this collection: Whitestar LWO Vorlon Dreadnought Velarian_Class_Battleship v9etu69q4r28-Babylon5 Shadow_Ship_(non_cannon) Shadow_Alien Psy_Corp_Mothership narncruiser minbari_warcruiser Minbari_Sharlin_War_Cruiser minbari_fighter minbari Jump_Gate Hyperion G-'Quan_v1 Earth_Force_One EA_Shadow_New_Babylon_Station EA_Omega_Destroyer_by_M.Tarling EA Badger StarFury F3D Release Centauri_Liner big flying saucer Babylon6 Babylon5 Babylon_5_Starfury_Version_3 B5Dockv2 Ashinta_Class_Escort_Frigate ACTA_Jumpoint A_Call_to_Arms_Babylon_5_Jump_Point These and many more are included in this collection.

Iron Sky Model and Scene Pack Vol. Two [KAT]
"The Commonwealth Ships" Three "Earth Fleet" ships, specifically those from the British Common Wealth as we referred to them on the show are included in Iron Sky Model and Scene Pack Volume 2. You get some really awesome craft in this one! The British "SpitFire", the Australia "Rooketer" (roo as in kangaroo) and the Canadian "CanadArm3". Each of which includes their appropriate volumetric engine set-ups and feature animated moving parts with the exception of the CanadArm3 ship which didn't have any moving parts. These are all "Hero" models, meaning they were the ones used for close up shots and later the base for downres or proxy objects used for shots where they appear in the distance or for previs. These models are an essential starting point to the series of packs being released later where entire shots will be made available to LightWave3D users with the goal of pretty much the entire work done in LightWave3D for the original film, being released. 4K, 6K and even 10K resolution texture maps are included where applicable, matching exactly the way they were used on the show.

Iron Sky Model and Scene Pack Vol. One [KAT]
After 7 long years, Liberty3D.com is proud to announce the availability of the Iron Sky LightWave3D assets library. Kat has opened up the “vault” and begun to prep each of the main Earth and Moon NAZI ships featured in the first film. These are not baked down, neutered versions of the originals. They ARE the originals! Used in the show! Initially produced using LightWave 10.1 and early beta versions of LighWave 11, all of the scenes have been pulled forward to LightWave 2015.3 for maximum compatibility. LightWave users from LightWave3D 9.6 to LightWave3D 2015.3 can load these scene files up along with the objects almost by default. Only two 3rd party plug-ins are required; DP Kit and DP Light which are both free to download and use. DB&W’s Material Booster Node may be required for some scenes to load correctly but is not required should you not have it. It is optional but we encourage you to support DB&W by picking up their tools. LightWave3D 2018 Compatibility is not entirely possible (at least out of the box) due to the massive changes in the rendering, shading and lighting systems in the new versions of LightWave3D. However, Kat is working on that. Most of the basic surfacing will come in with some adjustments using the emulated “layer” system but really it should be rebuit for the new PBR technology in LightWave3D 2018 and beyond. The lighting on the ships, specifically the volumetric lighting systems such as those for the engines of most craft will also have to be adapted to the new render and volumetric technology in Lightwave3D 2018. These incredibly rare and detailed assets represent thousands of hours of effort to produce and we are offering them exclusively to the LightWave3D community in their original form as an educational initiative. LightWave3D users new and old can study them and learn while also adapting them to their own scenes or making use of them as they see fit for their own reasons. Kat is granting a limited license for use by individual users of LightWave3D and options for commercial use as well. Several packs are planned and in the works. First up is Iron Sky Model and Scene Pack Volume 1. Iron Sky Model and Scene Pack Volume 1. Three iconic ships are included in Iron Sky Model and Scene Pack Volume 1. The USA’s George W. Bush, the Moon NAZI “Tanhauser” Zeppelin and the Moon NAZI Valkyrie. Each of which includes their appropriate volumetric engine set-ups an in the case of the Valkyrie the volumetric gun system which are able to be animated and aimed for firing. These are all “Hero” models, meaning they were the ones used for close up shots and later the base for downres or proxy objects used for shots where they appear in the distance or for previs. These models are an essential starting point to the series of packs being released later where entire shots will be made available to LighWave3D users with the goal of pretty much the entire work done in LightWave3D for the original film, being released. 4K, 6K and even 10K resolution texture maps are included where applicable, matching exactly the way they were used on the show.

Fusion for LightWave Artists: Volume 4 - Curse of the Phantom Shadow
Fusion for LightWave Artists: Volume 4 - Curse of the Phantom Shadow Award winning VFX artist and CG Supervisor, Kelly "Kat" Myers is back in his latest installment in the Fusion for LightWave Artists series. This time Kat walks you through a real-world production shot from the low-budget 30+ minute short film written and directed by Mark Ross; "Curse of the Phantom Shadow" With over 396 VFX shots in the current edit of the film, the daunting challenge of completing the task at hand is met through the use of LightWave3D and Fusion! In this tutorial, Kat demonstrates how one can employ creative uses of volumetrics supplied by LightWave3D natively as well as via TurbulenceFD From Jawset.com and mix them together in Fusion 8 in a way that "sells the shot". It doesn't stop there, however! Kat also demonstrates where the use of LightWave's PRMB is essential vs. the use of Vector-Based motion blur in post, and what to do if you ever have to "mix and match" in a compositing program like Fusion. If you have enjoyed the previous installments of Fusion for LightWave artists, then you are for sure going to want to grab this title as you can follow along with Kat as he breaks down the composite that made up the final shot and continues on improving it! Kat also discusses how you can ensure that 'WYSIWYG' for input and output when working with LightWave's Linear Color Space workflow and how Fusion's LUTs should be used with sRGB rendered material. Exclusively available from Liberty3d.com, Fusion for LightWave Artists: Volume 4 - Curse of the Phantom Shadow, includes the entire render results used in the tutorial. You can practice the techniques demonstrated by Kat without having to render a single frame out of LightWave! He's done that for you and the renders are included as a secondary download aside from the tutorial video so you can watch right away as the downloads for the renders come across to you in the background if you choose!

The Comprehensive Guide to IKBooster(Parts 3-5) [RR]
The Comprehensive Guide to IKBooster ====================================== CONTENT INCLUDED WITH PURCHASE ------------------------------------------ ------- SUMMARY ------- All videos included are encoded in h264 format, 1600x868 resolution, and include optional subtitles. Total video content runtime is 114 minutes. The download includes: - The IKBooster Comprehensive Guide, parts 3 through 5 - Scenes, prefabs, and example/demonstrative Lightwave content to open and play with - 5 character models - Sample IKB relative motion files, including relative motion capture samples - Sample commented Lscripts demonstrating time saving functions - Supplementary video content -------------- VIDEO DETAILS -------------- ? VIDEO PART 3: Relative Motion Loading ? Relative motion loading is a workflow in IKBooster that allows you to load animations so that the character will perform the actions contained within that clip "relative" to their current position and orientation in 3d space. Because the motions are relative, one can, for example, use a run cycle, make the character turn while running, and not worry about slipping foot placement which is a typical problem in most 3d animation programs. This also introduces the concept of a "tweaker's" workflow, where one simply edits existing motions in order to create entirely new ones. Relative motion loading will change the way you work, whether you prefer IKBooster's part-time IK or not. Also included with this tutorial is how to edit and blend these relative motions. ? VIDEO PART 4: Motion Capture Adaptation ? Motion capture sounds great, but often times it is a real pain to take advantage of in production. One problem is simply knowing how to adapt a custom character rig to a motion capture clip. Another is the fact that normally, tedious re-positioning is required in order to seamlessly blend the motion into the production. This section introduces how one can end up with a "1-click" workflow for adapting a character to motion capture, and how to utilize the techniques learned in part 3 to make the motion capture clip play relatively to the character's position. ? VIDEO PART 5: IKBooster Dynamics ? IKBooster dynamics can be difficult to take advantage of without knowing how it works. If you want to do things like have characters interact with long ropes, or simulate things but retain total control over them at the same time, this section shows how to achieve that with IKB dynamics.

The Comprehensive Guide to IKBooster (Parts 1-2) [RR]
The Comprehensive Guide to IKBooster ====================================== CONTENT INCLUDED WITH PURCHASE ------------------------------------------ ------- SUMMARY ------- All videos included are encoded in h264 format, 1600x868 resolution, and include optional subtitles. Total video content runtime is 110 minutes. The download includes: - The IKBooster Comprehensive Guide, parts 1 and 2 - Scenes, prefabs, and example/demonstrative Lightwave content to open and play with - 5 character models - Sample IKB relative motion files - Sample commented Lscripts demonstrating time saving functions - Bonus videos (~ 3 minutes) -------------- VIDEO DETAILS -------------- ? VIDEO PART 1: User Interface and Fundementals ? With exception of motion files and dynamics (covered in the yet-to-be-released parts 3 and 5), every conceivable aspect of IKBooster is revealed in this segment. After watching this part, you will know what all of IKBooster's tools do and be provided with insight as to where those tools are useful. Additionally, I include tips and advice that are absolutely required for smooth operation of IKBooster. Why doesn't Apply Keys work all the time? Why would anyone use FK control? Why do my characters wobble around after I use and animate with fixed bones? Why can't I load my IKBooster characters into a new scene? Countless questions like this are answered entirely, allowing you to use IKBooster seamlessly in your workflow. ? VIDEO PART 2: Rigging and Animation ? Just knowing what IKBooster's tools do isn't enough. You need to know to use them and how they all work together to give you a completed production. The following is covered in part 2... - IKBooster's advantages vs. normal character rigs in Lightwave - Creating a master template rig you can use on all your characters, includes basic usage relativity (little to no math! I promise!). I explain the control mechanisms, the reasons behind bone placement, and other details. - How to quickly (in minutes) adapt your master template rig to other characters. - Micro Scale Hold Nulls. These allow for easy 2-channel click-drag movements without using any motion modifiers or adding bulk to your scene. - Expressionless Multimorphs. A more visual and interactive approach to combining morphs (uses micro scale hold nulls). - How to do Character Interaction... by clicking a checkbox. I'm not kidding. - Using IKBooster to rig other things like lights, cameras, and other things to make animation as a whole much easier. - Why you should NEVER, EVER do character animation at above 20 frames per second... no matter what program you are using, Lightwave included. - I demonstrate the basic animation process and how it relates to IKBooster's workflow. IKBooster's animation workflow is more traditional in approach rather than technical. - How to make any looping animation in half the time. Literally.
