It looks like Zbrush's automatic topology isn't very good for game-ready 3d models, so the topology would have to be done manually. Maybe some time when things aren't totally insane I'll give it a shot. :)
The trouble with letting the contestants judge is that there's a cash prize, which creates a conflict of interest. It's one thing if it's just a free competition, but it would be bad if there were ever allegations (even false ones) that someone deliberately gave a bad rating to a competing game so as to win the prize money.
Whenever you involve money in something like this, you have to be extremely careful about being fair.
You're quite right. If there's going to be another LPC, this will definitely come up. Our reputation has been badly damaged at this point. It may be that we won't be able to ever do it again because of that.
That being said, my wife is pregnant and will be delivering in a few months, so there's absolutely no way I'll have time to be involved in another LPC this year.
I'm sure I sound like a broken record, but excellent work, as always. :)
I like these a lot. Nice work. :)
For the record, Makehuman is awesome. This was really intended to be more of a personal exercise. :)

Wow, this thread is a blast from the past. :)

@Plaintextures:
I should be around on IRC after 2 PM eastern time. Sorry for the trouble.

Hi plaintextures,
I run OGA, and I appreciate you chiming in on this. Can we chat over IRC? I think I have a proposal that might satisfy both your needs and ours.
Thanks!
Bart

Has the texture licensing issue been resolved?
