"7gen For Dummies"? The first post IS 7gen For Dummies.

Da-t · 06-20-2007, 09:57 PM

I meant there's no link to download 7gen itself

Pirate Balloon · 06-20-2007, 10:09 PM

You need to be a lot more clear in your posts, it'll go a long way.

Anyway, you can download 7gen here: http://www.3dmm.com/showthread.php?t=17038

Da-t · 06-20-2007, 10:44 PM

7gen isn't opening!

BlackMetalMovies · 06-26-2007, 06:49 AM

Does the same with me.
Da-t should have asked this (and I ask): What do I do?

Da-t · 06-26-2007, 11:49 AM

What do we do?

Shootfast · 06-26-2007, 12:31 PM

Have you installed both python and pygame? (As it says in the instructions)

7gen isn't a regular windows program, it's a sort of script that needs to run against set libraries. So you need to have those two programs installed for it to work.

Da-t · 06-26-2007, 02:20 PM

I d have them installed.

Yes, I've done that.

Dark Imagery · 01-21-2008, 05:54 PM

Alright, I'm rehashing this bitch!

I'm gonna attempt to make my own characters from the defaults. Now, I'm not to great on this kind of thing so a little help would be greatly appreciated.
My ultimate goal is to be able to remove BMDLs from characters that I find ridiculous (like alexander's lips). I have 7gen, pencil, and python 2.3. Are there any tools I'm missing? Pencil seems to work fine so I assume I have the needed components. Creating characters of Vlarion magnitude is probably out of my league, but I wouldn't mind having a hairless Kim that I could then put a hood on and animate them together. Anyone able to help?

Trooper · 06-11-2011, 05:18 PM

Those "lips" are a beard by the way.

Old Rivers · 06-11-2011, 05:21 PM

Seriously???

edit: haha, you're right, wow I always thought those were lips!

BuzzerLinting · 09-04-2019, 11:39 PM

Alright. I know that I'm 8 years late for this, but how can I get this to work with Python 3.6? When I try to run the file (with Pygame installed) an error message pops up saying:

Unable to create process using '/usr/env python
"C:\Users\MyName\Desktop\7gen\7gen.pyw" '

I have no idea what to do from here and I REALLY don't want to install an older version of Python.

Gorosaurus · 09-09-2019, 07:52 PM

I had to install an older Python version. Good luck!

Jacen · 01:08 AM

Whenever I open up 7gen, this error message appears in the error-log:
Python 2.7.5 (default, May 23 2015, 09:40:32) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)]
Windows NT/2K/XP (6.2 , build 9200)
Traceback (most recent call last):

Help me!
I've got the versions of Python and Pygame needed for the program to run.

Phil Williamson · 10-22-2019, 07:34 PM

v3dmm uses Python 2.7.10, not 2.7.5 (although honestly I'm not sure whether that's your issue or not)

Jacen · 11-17-2019, 12:59 AM

I installed Python 2.7.10, and still got this.

Goopster · 12-28-2019, 12:51 AM

I want to make a music pack, how do i do that?

Goopster · 12-28-2019, 12:55 AM

I've installed a later version of python, does that work? Because im getting an error that says 'Unable to create process using 'usr/env python "C:\Users\Luke\Desktop\7gen_0.7\7gen.pyw" '.

Phil Williamson · 12-31-2019, 08:43 PM

nope, a later version of Python won't work. creating a "music pack" doesn't require v3dmm at all though, you just have to import the songs (in .wav format) as sound effects into a blank movie and there's your "pack." don't release them here though.
