Animated Black Panther Animal 3D Modelby PROmax3D

Black Panther 3D Model Animated with CAT Motion

This animated black panther 3D model is a high-quality, game-ready asset, perfect for enhancing realism in games, VR applications, and rendering projects. Fully detailed and textured black panther animal 3D model. Detailed enough for close-up renders. Final images rendered with mental ray.

Features:

• High-quality polygonal model - correctly scaled accurate representation of the original objects.
• Objects are contained in a layer structure, with the layer having the same name as the product.
• Model resolutions are optimized for polygon efficiency (in 3ds Max the Mesh Smooth function can be used to increase mesh resolution if necessary).
• All colors can be easily modified.
• The model is fully textured with all materials applied.
• All textures and materials are included and mapped in every format.
• Max models are grouped for easy selection & objects are logically named for ease of scene management.
• No part-name confusion when importing several models into a scene.
• No cleaning up is necessary, just drop the model into your scene and start rendering.
• No special plug-in is needed to open the scene.

Rigging and Animation:

Rigging was done via the CAT object. Animation did via CAT Motion and Animation Layers.

Frame Rate is NTSC (FPS:30)

1. WalkAndRun (In CatMotion Editor (the paw icon) you will find the main two layers)
2. - Walk (01-48)
3. - Run (01-48)
4. +W Walk Run (Adjustment World - Adjustment for a walk and run cycle)
5. +L Walk Run(Local Adjustment Layer - Adjustment for a walk and run cycle)
6. +W Run (Adjustment World - Adjustment for run cycle only. Should be enabled only if you are using Run cycle.)
7. +W Ear Motion (Adjustment World - Ear motion)
8. +W Mouth Closed (Adjustment World - Mouth Closed)
9. +W Eyes Closed (Adjustment World - Eyes Closed)
10. Abs Standing Pose (Absolute layer)
11. Abs Signature Image (Absolute layer)

Notes:

To activate the animation you have to select any bone first, then select 'Motion' -> 'Layer Manager', after you can select WalkAndRun appropriate ('CATMotion' walk/run-cycle) animation layer...

Walk and run have their own separate adjustment layers that should be activated depending on animals running or walking. Simply turn on or off the animation layers.

Attention:

By default, an Absolute layer overwrites the previous layers animation with a new animation. This means that, with two Absolute layers on the stack, only the second layer has any effect. So, if you wish to use 'CATMotion' walk-cycle animation, you should disable all Abs (Absolute) layers...
