Tien was modelled, Tien was skinned, Tien was rigged, Tien had sounds, Tien had sprites.

But the animation team couldn't do all the animations. So Operation Tien died. The sounds and sprites are going to be used for BTL's Tien instead.

*cries and runs away to get tissues*
Why?! Cna't someone from the esf team do that? that's a shame, so many people were looking forward to having it......Because people also said that if tien was finished then the esf team would also make other guys(can't remember), but I don't think it's gonna happen.

I'm sure there are new users that registered after that operation tien and has some animnation skills or whatever, can't someone do something, PLEASE!!!!

Oh, but since Break the limit is gonna use it, it might not be that bad. :(

Actually the esf team said that if operaion Tien was finished then they would consider letting the community do a couple of other characters (namely Gotenks). The team themselves wouldn't be making others although I'd imagine that they would have to add animations that the community can't add due to not knowing yet. And the team already has enough to be working on without having another character to animate.

There is one course of action you could take though if you want Tien in, learn to animate.

It's all just a cruel joke played by the team, they know theres no one capable of darktooth quality animaton in amoung us, and it wouldn't get accepted if it wasn't up to that standard, we were setup to fail.

aww man, does animating involve coding, and which program do you use to do it?

I'll give it a try, but don't ask me why.....just for practice, maybe then in a few months I'll be able to so animations, but I doubt it will be good enough, we'll see.

Nah, no coding involved. I've actually animated myself and I wouldn't mind slaving for countless hours making 200+ animations half of a quarter of an eight of a sixteenth of Darktooth's quality.

AHHH!H!!!!1!!!!one!!!!!!!! are you serious?!

How long does it take to make an eight of a quarter of the quality of darktooth's animtions?

But is it very hard too learn, and does it take a long time?

But does a character really use 200+ animations?

It could. Animations, to look nice, can take time.
Not very hard to start, I picked it up in a day. But.... making it look nice is a different story >_>

I never knew that. Do you still have the model? I'd like to skin it since I haven't skinned for ages. =D

Hmm I think I remember some kinda confusion, but if I remember right, someone else sent you the wrong or an old SDK, I'm not sure anymore...oh well, if anyone wants to animate it, let me know I still have all the files :)
