Skinned avatar tutorial

While I know that version 5 is not free (it is about in the $100 range right now), I think that version 4 is dropping off to the free level since 7 came out. The form that you fill out is different for 4 then what you fill out for 5 and 6. It's very reminiscent of the free 3 version. If indeed someone tries obtaining TS 4 and it is not free, or it does not allow you to save, can you let me know? I'm also curious to know what version of 4 it is. It should show up as version 4.3. Let me know if that is not the case

I picked up a copy awhile back for $99.00 and it included 5 video tutorials I think. If you subscribe to their site or whatever they send out a never ending stream of offers on a variety of versions and video combinations. We're taking the first baby steps but within weeks Aureus will have all new skinned avs. We will be doing new fight sequences that will tie into the attack and defense postures used in combat. We'll have to replace several of the old sequences too because the seqs designed for the jointed avs look pretty goofy on the skinned avs at times. They twist up the skin, especially around the shoulders, as mentioned in other posts simply because they weren't designed to be used on skinned avs.

Anyone know where I can get a good tutorial on using the bone feature in TrueSpace 5.2? I have the skin done but can't work out which icon to click on to begin the tutorial Stacee wrote. I can't even get my object positioned like the one in that tutorial. I off to a good start eh?
