It's called getting the job done professionally the fastest way possible.

It's a vehicle so auto-retopo will do just fine.

yeah dont worry about finely designed topology on parts that dont deform. It just has to look good.

Splines?
What program?

Bevel, loft, lathe and even the simple extrude are some buttons that i always place in my personal sidebar.
Adding power are splines converted to physical meshes with renderer options rollout, surface modifier to create Path meshes and the always handy slice modifier.
Those are pretty old tools actually - they date from the first versions of max, and even 3ds for DOS used a loft base module for modeling.

I'm assuming it's for 3d printing. Then you need : Netfabb Basic

it's fairly easy in blender using a boolean modifier

>>530315
you cannot transfer materials because they are different rendering systems

so, do I have to make the material on UE4 seperately ?

long story short
you cant.

Wasn't that big of an update, didn't add any big features that I could tell.

I still surprised there isn't an info page on the Autodesk site.

The weird bullshit is called windows 10

Here's a look at the multi-pass layer thing in the image viewer, which I'm assuming isn't right but I don't really know.

It's probably because the chamfer will go through the square hole

Try to insert the chamfer on the tree before the hole. As long as the hole doesn't use anything as reference you should be fine

-why lofted cut?
-why not just chamfer or swept cut?
- sometimes the problem happens on edges (zero thickness geometry or something like that) Try making those triangles, that you are trying to cut out, bigger. Make the edges go over the edges of stock part. But than be careful how you put those guide curves.
- another option: Cut the whole edge off and then make Lofted bose/base of the shape you want.

The problem is your profile; you have the triangle as a profile and a line going out of it, which is also a profile, remove it and use only one guide curve.
Better if you "convert entity" (over a 3D sketch) your most external edge and you use it as a guide curve.
But as I see you could use also chamfer

In my experience, a golden rule as an animator is don't fuck with the rig (i.e. freezing transforms on the rig). So I don't think I'd recommend doing that.
The best thing you could do for pose study is work in stepped mode and pose your model in one frame, key all the controls, move a frame forward, zero out all your controls, then work on the next pose you wish to create.

you should visit /gd/ for this question

You need to have the same parallax point. If you don't have the exact same parallax point, you're basically fucked. You can also lock images and only optimize the selected ones.

hey thank you for the tips, havent looked into locking images might be worth checking out. have done some work at manually setting stitch points but the changes don't save to the final panorama. any thoughts?

wew lad

In terms of computers my Haswell i5 and gtx 770 are still more than capable of doing the type of work you describe it cost $1500 new at the time get.

For display get 24 in monitors those are cheap

well you have blender which is completely free
but what actually you are planning to get in 4 months to people that don't understand english?
what are you doing lad

>>528078
Looks like it would work well.
Might go for a better processor,
we will be doing an intense amount of in game physics work apart from the 3d modeling work.
>>528079
Despite being for the most part an isolated village,
these people know English very well. So no problems there.

As for blender, it seems like it would work.
Lots of guides out there for it, so that will help when teaching the software.
Many use 3dsmax it appears, but the software itself seems complex and costs money.
Money that can used for other necessities in the work space.

I thank you for the response.

read the god damn sticky

id say its best to learn what you are going to be using in the long run.
so i guess try both see which one you like better.

>>530211
Max will land you more potential jobs and looks better for hard surface once you learn how to spline model.

Speaking of buildings and their insides, does anyone have a tutorial on that? I can't model buildings for shit and I need to badly for my own project.

>Macfag here.
>3ds Max
Will you be fine running a VM? I'm also a Macfag using Max inside of Parallels, and would rather have a PC instead to run all my 3D shit natively, but this is what I was given to work with.
My stance is to use whatever software you're most comfortable with, and in my case that's Max, fits my workflow like a glove and by golly I'll jump through hoops if it means getting to use it.

Well what the fuck is the point with the heat guard.
You don't fucking hold plasma cannons

I set every parameter I could to 1000, and it's going to take a few centuries, wait a sec.

Damn son, this is hot.
Got any more of this? I need to build up my collection, just in case the internet is out and I need to fap.

God furry porn is so hot.

this is possible with physics

You mean like cloth + softbody.
