Posts: 127 		Hi,

I'm a newbie to this and started my scene. There are a couple of things I wondered how to do.

First question is I want the character in the scene to start lying down, can I do this and if so please how as I couldn't see how to do that.

Secound question is I want the character in the scene to have blood on his head and Shirt. Is that possible and if so please how.

Thanks for your time,
Than

The only way to get a scene to "start" with a character lying down is to animate them dying or being knocked out at the very start of the animation;

For instance if you want to animate him standing up then pointing you would need to do: Knocked Out, Stand Up then Point.

A lying down initial state is in the pipeline, but I do not know when it will be implemented.

You can put blood on your character's chest/shirt by right clicking on the character and changing the page you are editing to "Decals". You can then apply an image to the character's front or back - in this case a picture of blood.

Putting blood on a character's face/head is a bit more complicated - there is a Face Mask that you can import textures onto called "Photo Face Mask" - you would need a picture of a face with the blood on it in order for it to work.

The artists and devs are looking at the ability to apply images and textures to more areas of a character, but it's not being worked on at the moment.

I was actually about to post a reply to your Hello post when I spotted this one, so Hello!

Take care, and if you have any more questions or feedback let us know.
