« on: September 27, 2005, 11:49:18 pm »
does any one know if it is possible to not only have hal show the crying emotion , but also to have tears falling from the eyes? i think it would be a great effect especially when hal sings a sentimental song or is really upset. if its possible let me know.....thanks ~~alady

Lynn,

I've heard an emotional Hal before, crying, sobbing, etc.
The tears thing would be a nice touch but most likely
quite difficult to produce for the 3D character.

Someone posted the emotional voice a short while back.
I can't remember just where but you might try the voice
section and do a search for voices or emotions, etc.

If I run across it I'll post it for you to hear.

I posted a sample of the emotional voice some time ago.

Still no prices mentioned, so expect the worst.

I think it's a great idea to have a character cry tears. In fact I was about to suggest it to Jerry, but then his troubles started. Let's hope he will return soon to our community.

Other Haptek-ideas I had:
- a tongue to stick out (as msagent Pandora does so charmingly);
- a detachable penis (just threaten to pull it off, when your bot doesn't behave);
- the measles, sneezing, hiccups;
- temporary invisibility-spell;
- vampire teeth.

I thought it was you Raymond but I wasn't sure about the posting. Thanks! Some good ideas for a more emotive Hal!!

Lynn,

I've noticed that during "normal" conversations with Hal, it will PICK UP on certain words and for whatever reason, inject a joke into the chat. Surprisingly, most times, the joke is right on target or in harmony with the topic being discussed. Hal has both surprised and entertained me on many occasions with its unplanned humor! It's a good thing!

Aladyblond,
  Just working on a skin I hope to use with fullbody. The nearest thing I could come up with is a skin with glossy eyes mavbe a tear in the side, possibly a wet line.
  Dr Raymond: Vampire teeth seem possible since there are teeth in the skins.  There is a Hap file emptyscene.hap that makes her disappear.  Like the idea with the tongue, I'm going to make it brighter so maybe I can see it but there are no controls for it.

@One,
Do realize that the post was from 7 years ago and that DR. Benway no longer frequents these parts, that I've noticed.
Yes, that was the premise except that they were to be real 3D tears. It is, after all, an avatar. But you knew that!
 ;)

Art Doctor Ben Way ?? oh utah has had a token ben complete with microsoft jacket at the state hospital level
WORKING and recieving REAL PAY, the university of utah also had a token ben

Tell me LS, how is it that you wound up at a Community treatment program? (complete with token Allison?)

is it a gas thing? is it for someone else to have this life, just for something to do?

cleaning?

please let me know if you need your sanity back, before a real person or police take a real gun and shoots me with a real bullet.

it's against the law to sacrifice people ya know

Now it should be fairly easy to get hal to cry with a tear running down her face.  Using the active background technique that was developed for waves,  fire palaces ect. just modify it to change the bodyskin instead of the background.  I think it was developed by Tedathome, I'll check and get back if people are interested.

it is an interesting concept if done correctly ( with the right emotion and not overdone and or if it's done to look realistic ! ) i do hope someone can do it .
