Facetracking for your toon

[Tonkra]

Sorry maybe a little offtopic. But its kinda funny

Is that the future for MMorpg character emotes?^^

Facetracking Everquest

No it really is not. Not everyone has a webcam, not many would ever want to turn a system like that on, and it would require you to receive a hell of a lot more data about every ones current face twitches.

Also *smack* We don't use the T word here!

well but i think its a fun idea, when playing with friends through Teamspeak and seeing the correct facial emotions to the voice well it will work (traffic wise), otherwise SOE wouldnt going to implement this.

personally i would switch that off too in most times buts a funny thing which i just wanted to show^^
and i imagine a group of toons leveling in an instance, you are talking via TS and seeing very realistic facial animations on them while talking. thats a cool thing^

at first it sounded nice but then i saw the video and even with the stiff animations of everquest 2 it looks horrible, half of the time the mouth just hung open or flapped about aimlessly...

well when he speaks you are right.. but the other facial expressions (smiling etc.) looks exactly the same for 100%. Its in beta and it needs fine tuning.

For example that your character doesnt open his mouth THAT wide when you are speaking normal. thats just a question of tuning and nothing more. and then it will look good and acurate.

haha hilarious. well i never use that word.. dont know why i used it now. Maybe because i read that yesterday when i played Dark Age of Camelot again.



but here for you again:

that's actually kind of cool lol

I don't think I'd ever want to be bothered to turn my camera around and zoom in on you just to see what your expression was when you said something.

It's funny technology but not practical at all.

And please don't say toon ever.

It's an MMO term. Same as character and charry and some of the other weird abbreviations I've seen for the word. If one is good, so is the other, I would think.
