wrong board m80

>>506521
where then?

>>506522
Don't open up the board list and look. That'd be too easy

here is the gun with the toonline

>>506508
The gun is complicated ND the lines have no weight variation. There are options to make the outline thicker than any in lines and to make them taper at the ends.

You can also use a texture to control line weight.

I had already looked and found this, and the problem is it doesn't work unless I initially open it in max.

The link doesn't do anything except bring me to my cloud drive. Nothing listed.

Alright, so I did get it to import properly by exporting a .dae instead.

Any downsides to using different 3D files?

collada was designed to transfer a whole scene's worth of data. If it looks fine on the other end of the import then I wouldn't worry about it.

It worked for a while, but now it does this.

I don't know why this of all things has to be so fucking hard to do.

Not bad. The arm looks weird though as if the subject is very skinny and the undersuit doesn't fit, or the suit arm legnth is too long. Rinkles too much.

>>505506
Very cool, I love the design!

Wtf is up with blender viewport?

I mean this.

its time to put the bong down son.

1. Make sure your "Fill Seams" value is high enough for your given texture resolution.

2. If you have any hard edges on your surface normals, you need to put a UV split there, or else you'll get that edge-shading issue.

These are general rules for any 3D package.

Watch this video:

They were already split, but the "Fill Seams" value fixed it.

Open the map in paint and touch up using (128,128,255)

So I blocked out a scene from some sketch I found on pinterest. Looking to do relatively low poly / hand painted environment. I mainly do animation but I wanted to give this a shot since I've been told by a few people that i'm good at texturing so I want to give this little environment a shot.

What do you guys think?
How could I improve what I have so far?

ps. im a shit modeler pls dont shit on me too hard.

>>504373

obv you're not gonna take advantage of any bump maps. You have to be the best texturer in the world if you dont want that to look shit

go to autodesk.com lookup free student license. every software is free when you setup an account. make up a school name put that you are either a student, teacher or a mentor and you get a free 3 year license

>>506250
It depends what you want from CAD. You could try nanocad (nanocad.com).

Hey, thanks a lot guys, I'm gonna check out your
recommendations!

Can you explain why it's good ?

the images it produces don't look good.

Not many people use Blender or Cycles professionally so you're mostly stuck with shit looking renders. But it can produce very nice results

Where exactly did you get that price from?
It's $1,249 a year for full Maya right now. It's $185 a month if you only pay monthly though.

Maya LT is even cheaper and has everything you need if you're just making content for games. It's $30 a month or $240 a year ($204 right now on sale)

>>503631
Says 1600 euro for a yearly subscription. The 4000 figure you drop is for the perpetual licenses they're about to discontinue.

Still though the market is plenty ripe for a 'purchase once' alternative to Autodesks bullshit schemes.
Them acquiring maya and softimage was the cancer of our time, where's anti monopoly legislation when you need it?

Rhetorical question of course, it's in neverland riding Peter Pan's fictional schlong while pretending like it actually exists.

>>503633
Anti-monopoly only comes in when there is almost no competitors in the marketplace. 3D has dozens of competitors for DCC apps, so you can buy up one of them without issue and not have it be anti-competitive.

Tbh, if you're buying a perpetual license, you're kind of stupid, because the rate at which 3D tools are advancing means your workflows are going to become outdated within 2 or so years usually. It's much better to be paying a much cheaper subscription each year to keep your tools up to date, than to pay $4000 for a perpetual license every 2-3 years just to have the newest features.

Why not all the above? Include an FBX too.

There is nothing wrong with submeshes. Leave it disconnected, but organized sensibly. Call the outer walls "outer walls" and the first floor "first floor."

>>506413
Okay, thanks a lot!

No. Sketchup is for quick architecture-visualization work for the most part. It create garbage geometry and UV mapping that isn't really usable for games. There's a reason it's so easy to use, it's not good for anything but creating things that work for archviz.

jesus christ

Anybody have any tutorials for unreal engine? Some of my professors like 3D animations of our projects (architecture student). they just want a walk-around but I really don't want to use sketchup+vray+ lumion, they look like a shitty sims houses and the project honestly doesn't come to life.
A couple of my classmates starting using lumion and I felt bad for them, good designs went to shit just by using shit software, it was funny though, they also added shit house music to their video presentations. Pretty cringe inducing.

I got some succesfull attempt with using the "cut face tool", and parenting their gyzmo to locators on the side of the "renderbox", but I still have issue with animated objects.

the "cut" act as if the animated object was still at the same spot as he was at frame 1
Despite the fact that he had moved.

This sounds like a job for MEL at which I'll sell the script for $79.99

I don't think there's any easy default way to do what you want there, this sounds like MEL scripting.

Weight paint

>>506358
I can't see how that'll solve either issue.

>>506355
Disconnect the offending bones while maintaining the parent/child relationships, or set ease in/out to zero (your bones won't flex though only twist).
