Description
I got distracted from XCraft nemeses while I was testing out Jelly Tech on Nyotengu. I had an idea to try some of the X3 animations again. The stage is from X2. I made it long ago, but only recently had some ideas to simulates lights better, including the light falloff shortcuts I've done before. Also being armed with new bump map ideas helped too, since much limited source textures. I haven't done many animations with backgrounds, even then I normally cheat with a static background, but I really wanted it more dynamic to include ambient light and floor specular.

I'm not about to fire up a render farm just yet, but sheesh this took a few days' worth of sessions to bake even at such a tiny sample size & resolution. No mass production here. As per usual, I didn't make the animation from scratch, just provide the physics & scene setup.

PS: Not responsible for any potential nose bleeds!

Edit (12/12/2018)
I could stand leaving things in a low resolution, so I did a rebuild. I added a light, originally intended, and fixed the thigh clipping. Bakes times, now even more brutal
