Sonic World - Chao Pack [Chao Garden UPDATE]

[MAJOR UPDATE]
The Chao Garden from Sonic Word has been added in the pack !
The garden itself is a big prop, NOT a stage, use it with a void map (the water void map V2 is perfect for that purpose).
If you use another void map, you will need the "Almost Water" prop (link at the bottom).

This update include 2 version of the garden...
- The original version from Sonic World which use the texture asset from SA 1.
- The enhanced version with a complet texture overhaul.

What you need to know about this update...
- Regarding the video preview, it was been made on the Water Void V2 map, and yes the video have some AE editing, I will add some 100% SFM made pics later.

---------------------------------
[Chao garden Update 1]

- Waterfall added to the original version of the garden.
- Crashed Tornado and black market poster removed from the original garden model for the same reason than the enhanced version (texture limit per model) in order to add the waterfall instead.

__________________________________________________________________

This pack contains all the Chao model from the fan game Sonic World, in detail...

- 15 Chao model, Dark, neutral and Hero with all their type (normal, swim, run, fly and power type).
- 14 set of skin for each Chao model.
- 10 set of eyes (bodygroup).
- 7 set of mouth (bodygroup).
- Jigglebone for the "emotion ball" and head part (horn).
- Cycle animation.

What this pack does NOT include...
- Final evolution form (like the "chaos" Chao).
- Face flex, mainly because that something that I cannot handle but mostly because they are not really needed in that case (since the mouth and eyes are handled by bodygroup) it may be a minor pain for the eyelide but they are perfectly rigged and could be controled with ease directly by using the bone.
- Eye movement, and this one stricly because of the material / texture limitation of SFM, each Chao model are already really close to the texture count limit of SFM and if I wanted to add eye movement, I would need to split and double each eye .VMT file (for the right and left eye), result, it will overflow the texture limit.

Some tips...
- You can disable the jigglebone if you want, just right click on the model name, select "utilites" then select "bake procedural bones".
- To use the cyclic animation, click on the model name then select 'import sequence", just select the annimation in the panel, sadly all the cyclic animation are stored in one DMX, meaning that you will have to "isolate" then cut/copy the part your want with the motion editor, could be done in less than 2 min so not a big deal.
- Each model have 2 root bone, "root" and "roottransform", prefer the use of the "root" bone.
- Obviously all the Chao model are rigged, they don't need a rig script since because of their bodyshape, all their body part can be animated by "rotation" only.
