Nice blog.

Also, no. Mostly. CPU > GPU in most cases for CGI. Don't neglect the GPU tough

Also, grab loads of ram.

thanks man, i'll keep that in mind but why so much RAM? I won't have much open is video memory or whatever its called important?

Fiji is a fucking shithole m8 count your blessings.

Gaming cards are fine, dedicated pro boards aren't worth it unless you are spending someone else's money.

Get a shitton of ram and ssds for your main and scratch disks.

What is the general consensus on rhino3D?

>>509523
I used Rhindo 3D for some time while making an architectural model and while working as an intern at a company that produces models of any kind. The program itself takes a while to get used to and to grasp its full capabilities, you really need to use it a lot, but in general it is a program that really eases the task of making models of any kind because of its tools. If you are looking for a comfortable way to make scale models and want to use it for work, you would probably go for rhino (or maybe autoCAD, but i cant give you any opinions on that). If you want to make animations of some sorts, you can forget rhino because it is (i think) not able to make any.

Looks like a '90s render

Where's the sss shader ?

>>509987
Somethings just off

You make the models in another program and then use Daz to render them. Daz is a rendering and animating program. Not a modeller.

Likely it was lots of postwork done in photoshop.

>tfw no EZ button in rendering.

layering the renders in a post-effects program and such has always been a secret recipe to have distinguish ones work versus 1 click wonders.

only download plugins when you need them

>>510095
This. Stop looking for solutions to problems you don't have.

>>510095
>>510097
Isn't the entire point of a plugin to either improve a certain aspect of the program or add more features?

I don't see how this is looking for a solution to a problem I don't have. There could be a plugin that makes a certain task you perform repeatedly easier or provides better results consistently.

Why not use something like that if it's available? I obviously intend on learning the basics of the program despite what might be provided by a third party.

hmmm... I know it's better :D no one wants to talk :(

Go back to your containment thread.

Look up toon rendering. Both for the shadows and toon lines.

first
how good are you at actually making the models

Nothing new. Creates unusable topology.

Only potent use could be to block out.

It will help drop the price of 3d scanners

>>505959
That's why I love how shortcut-oriented it is.
I could use the Japanese version perfectly fine if I had to.

Is it easier to produce Cambodian basket-weaving cartoons when you set Blender to Chinese?

>>505959

Personally I make squinty eyes when I use Blender now.

The render they get from their 3D program of choice looks nowhere nearly as good as those pictures. Heavy compositing applied.

My first model editor was 3d GameStudio.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamestudio

I believe 1999 or 2000 edition. I dont believe anyone ever made anything good with this gamecreator suit(probably because there werent loads of video tutorials and resources for everything back then and learning just by reading a telephone-book manual is not that great)

idk if this is the tutorial you're talking about, if it isn't that might help you.

Yes, that was the tutorial, i forgot to add it, thanks.

I wanted to receive some help on how to improve it, because the tutorial wasn´t well explained, or maybe im too ignorant about the stuff im trying to do that i do not understand how to apply it.

I make them fight each other, if possible. Try it.

porn. all day every day

I 3d print and jack-off on them

ty, sincerely

First, make sure you are downloading the latest service pack from Autodesk. Second, need to know what platform you are on, there are loads of files scattered all over that you need to clean up.

https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/maya/downloads/caas/downloads/content/autodesk-maya-2015-service-pack-6.html

windows 7 64-bit
I alrady run service pack 6, but it couldn't validate files, and said that there was a problem with the installer. Strangely, the installer didn't show any errors, i even checked the logs.

>>510617
I do know that SP6 on windows requires a working install of 2015 SP5 or older, right? The windows file is an updater as opposed to a complete installer like on Mac/Linux. That may be your file validation problem if you installed and then tried to run the SP6 installer. I am also reading that AV can cause issues with the downloaded file becoming corrupted, so you may want to verify that you have temporarily disabled AV while downloading the files you need from Autodesk. see
