Hello and books about blender animation

General Discussion

Hi there,

as this is my first post, I want to say hello to the community! Me,ToM/32/german usually java-coder with jMonkeyEngine, found panda3d 2 or 3 month ago and have to say: marvelous (or any known positive superlative). The documentation is perfect, the forum-community active. And most important! The blender->panda3d pipeline just works… it is so great. That was the cause I started with panda3d beside jMonkeyEngine (that is still under heavy development).

Don’t know if you people all know that there are quite some interesting books available at books.google.com:

e.g.

Introducing character animation with Blender:

Animating with Blender:
http://books.google.de/books?id=z1_mzwtiA-kC&lpg=PP1&dq=blender&lr=&pg=PA4

Just for info…

Thx and have a nice weekend,ToM
