boring, I guess.

So you got hired by a company to do a 3D model and in all your conversations with them about the product, you never quite managed to catch the name of the product you were modeling?

>>514164

It's good, all the materials are well defined. Are the corners meant to shade like that they kind of draw your eye to them.

>>514178

thanks, yeah the corners are a bit weird. But the lighting was quite complex for this scene. The thought is to get the curved feeling across.

ornatronix is impossibe to find on any torrent sites

>>514157
Not even CGpoors?

>>514158
nope. no torrents in peerz. a couple of request threads but no deliveries of this amazingly useful little thang.

So I don't know if this answers your question but go to...

> animation > position controllers > path constraint

...and then...
--> select the object you want on the path
--> select the path
...this will add a path constraint to that object + keyframes for that object moving along said path from start to finish.

After that in the motion panel, under "Path Parameters" check the "Follow" box. This will cause the object to follow the bends in the path (NOTE: if the object acts janky you may need to adjust the path handles slightly).

After that:
--> Turn on auto-key
--> Make sure the object is selected (not the path), and make sure you are on the last key (it will have already been created).
--> Make sure your rotating locally and not from view, and rotate the object so it looks like it fits.

After that go to...

> tools > snapshot

...and in the dialog:
--> choose "range"
--> "from" needs to be the starting frame of the objects animation
--> "to" needs to be the ending frame of the objects animation
--> "copies" is the amount of times the object will be cloned along the path (this will vary and you will have to play around with it)
--> make sure "instance" is chosen at the bottom & hit ok.

What you should get is >pic related.

TL;DR
Make a path > use path constraint on the ammo > use the snapshot tool to make copies along the path to create the illusion of an ammo belt.

here is a clearer angle of what the result is

O shit nigga it worked

Thank you so much.

its already too late the fbi has you down.

>>514047
:-(

>>514045
probably a shitty crack.
block the entire folder off the internet and search for a better crack.

Try deleting autodesk related things from your APPDATA and PROGRAMDATA folders.
Also stop stealing.

>implying I'm not using the student version
How dare you call me a pirate fag

try seeing if any scripts are running and kill them.
also you can try deleting the smaller stuff first then the bigger stuff

anything that you're comfortable with, i have a first price microsoft mouse myself.
I used to have a mouse designed for 3D, with a stick on the side that you can map to navigate in the viewport, it's somewhat nice but not really necessary, plus expensive and unreliable (mine broke less than 1 year after i bought it).
I also have another 3D mouse, like pic related, that i was given, but i never used it and never felt the need to.
tldr, any mouse that fits in your hand will do

>>512243
Yeah, I don't need anything too fancy. I just thought I'd ask here since walmart always has only shitty mice, so I'd like to buy online this time.

Mice like the picture you posted look more like toys than actual tools that help you work, though, which is why i've sorta been avoiding them.

>>512241
A gaming mouse with lots of programmable buttons can be really handy.

>>512599
Anon, I don't know where you got this shitty models from, but both have shit geometry and can't be made with walls easily, they need rework, mainly because of the inside geometry on the exhausts. Now, let me ask you the proper question. Why don't just you print them solid, they are just fucking 3.6 and 5 centimeters big?

>>512616
I think I explained myself badly, I did print them but the wings and ailerons broke because they are too thin... I meant making all the model 0.3mm or bigger. I got em from a guy that made a mod, he said he printed them in 10cm but I want them for a small scale wargame, that's why they are so little.

>>512616
The tips of the wings are the most problematic zones. They finish in a bevel and that way the printer cant do it and breaks them.

>>514022
for engineering, not artists

>>514023
>engineering isnt an art

>>514024
It isnt art. And inventors creates either nurbs or decimated meshes that are way too dense for no reason.

There are specific reasons why maya/houdini/max are used instead of inventor. And how you dont see the obvious is concerning

why mobile game friend

>>506879
Why not?

>>506877
Even though I'd love to participate, I dont understand if that's feasible? I remember we tried to make a game based on mad max fury road, but I dont think that went well.

Was releasing them 4 years later part of his plan?

That's a big render.

>>513995
That was probably the duration of his NDA.

Another example with a bit more complex model.

Everything is closed, and the rectangular things seem sort of allright, but everything curved is just fucked up.
I just created a simple cylinder and sphere and even those get fucked up hard.

please help, this must be something wrong in Rhino

its similar to how remesh works in blender
maybe the program automatically converts the mesh, possibly you ticked something in export options

>>513926
I'ma look into that, thanks.
I didn't consciously change anything like that tho. Maybe Rhino imported some weird ass settings from one of the dxf files I used?

for a good shekel

>>512861
What?

İ can model a detailed one with rigged dreadlocks and all
Only for 499 dollars :^)

>>513947
The answer is simple, if you're 100 percent sure you're not gona pose him, model the final pose.

T or some symmetrical pose it's far easier.

zbrush doesn't have posing and like a shape states system?

boring

> there seems to be little info on what this effect is called
> I love the cell shaded art style
>what this effect is called
>cell shaded

Two-tones, one light, one shadow. Each dogeman there may have their own light sources. Their shirts are shadeless for effect. etc.

NPR work is pretty much entirely, a: knowing what you want, b: getting creative in order to achieve the desired effect.

Math skill are probably extremely useful here.

If you want some professional insight, there is great translation of a breakdown of how the artists of the video game Guilty Gear Xrd did their stuff out there. It shows off a bunch of little tricks they pulled to get their desired look.

flat shading. easiest thing to implement to almost every 3d program out there.
