Installed wrong?

Postby MatCreator » Mon Mar 15, 2021 10:35 pm

Hello all. Really getting into MakeHuman. I came to the forums trying to search for the basemesh .obj file to "work" with, and that opened a can of worms. I saw in another post that the reason i dont have the actual .obj is because i have the nightly build? But wait, there is more i need help understanding. I had version 1.1.1 on my system for a while, but as i started getting into it i downloaded the 1.2. In the past, i "think" we would just open the zip, and move the folder to a desired location, and just run the program. For 1.2, I followed suit, moved the folder to another MakeHuman folder, and hit the .exe file, which actually ran an installer. Both my 1.1.1 and the new 1.2 are working fine, no issues or problems. But I wonder if i have them installed correctly, the 1.2 doesnt seem to have a folder in my system, and the 1.1.1 is still there and working. Did the new install overwrite files? is the "ok" to have on a system as i do?!? Everything is working fine, but Id styill like to get my hands on the virgin basemesh of makehuman. The "monster" as i believe it is called? and where is the installed folder of the new MakeHuman 1.2?!? Thanks... More questions to follow Im sure.

Versions 1.1.1 and 1.2.x use the same base mesh. I believe a very few vertices have been corrected fix some non-symmetric errors but any changes should work equally well in either version. I believe the basemesh vertices have been slightly morphed by the start-up macro sliders.

Aranuvir can probably provide more detail on this.

but am i supposed to have 2 separate makehuman folders? one for the 1.1.1 and another for the current community release, or did the community release overwrite the files of the 1.1.1 version?

i was able to grab the basemesh from the link provided in the downloads page...

is that correct? it was a text file, but ive played with that kind of stuff before, having to crack .cr2 files for poser.

An obj file is just a list of vertexes do yeah a text file and the order of the numbers is also important.
