>try to search for tutorials on modeling
>everything is a fucking youtube tutorial
Why are modellers so fucking ADHD brainrotted? Is there really no text resources for non retarded humans to study?

I feel ya. Videos are a pain to get specific information out of, so you have to listen to some guy with a thick accent and respiratory problems very, slowly, explain, every, thing.

Royal Skies' videos are still good, because they short and to the point. Just a shame he's sucking off AI bros now.
>>
Buy 3D modeling magazines some even come with disk or codes to download resources.

>>977610
>>977614
I thought he was crazy too but after trying so many different prompts to get some kind of tutorial for basic 3D art. I found zero in modern day era. Not even a blog, that is how bad things are nowadays.

>>977646
Anon, CDs and codes are ancient history.

I hate it. I hate it so god damn much.
Doesn't help that it's "profitable" to endlessly cater to beginners and low-hanging fruit. Easier to make tut #157 on the exact same beginner topic you just did for a previous version of a software where the method hasn't changed, then to actually do something niche and useful.
I'm more or less conviced that all the retards doing YT tuts and the like are beginners themselves and can't model for absolute fucking shit. They've got no reason to since their audience consists of pajeets and africans who have even less skill than them.
It's the blind leading the blind.
>>
I know if I were to make some, beyond the basics that are already parroted, that they would soon be copied 10x over by a myriad of youtubers.

ok younglings, time for an old-fart's story time
once upon a time, I came across one dude's blog, it was full of tutorials with photoshop and 3ds max, etc. the dude showed you how to do all kinds of hihg level autistc shit, high end sutff

then somehow I los the url of that site, and I came to google for assistance, only to have as a response
>have all this fuckmetric ton of uselses sites with shit content that don't messure up to one tiny bit of the original instead

and that, young folks, is why we old folks no longer say

Nothing to do with that. Jewgle search algorithms ensure there's no way to get good results in text on just about any subject. You can't vet as easily any result for being an ad or dogshit or some woman or mutt writing an and then everyone clapped article.

YouTube thumbnails though are on a whole different level and no matter how skewed jew tube makes the algorithms they don't control the thumbnails and so it's much much easier to see the mental illness on display in each result and scroll past them.

well, what are some good tutorials? the sticky is horribly outdated
im not against video format as OP is, besides the fact that the majority of youtube tutorials are griftercore
>>
>>979806
The tutorials were inside you all along. Art was not meant to be written, only expressions.
>>
>>977610
Transcribe the tutorials into text. It's like taking notes, allows you to sink in the information better.
>>
>>979809
Tutorials are for the technical aspects of making art, not learning to make art.
>>979811
Yep yep, sharing also helps since you have to reformat what you learned into your own words.
"If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it."
>>
>>977610
I always preferred text to video tutorials. but so much goes on in modeling and a lot of it needs to be shown that it makes it easier to do that in a video format.
The only bad ones are Andrew with his 30 part series in 45 minute chunks. Really it should be one 10-15 minute video. Also obviously the beginner ones because they cover things you already know.
>>
>>977610
You sound extremely 110 IQ.
>>
>>977610
it's much quicker to make a video than write an essay+take hundreds of pictures to explain where the button is+embed the pictures in the essay.

shit gets updated so fast it is just not sensible or profitable to spend a week on an tutorial with a glossary about how to use x software's latest update, which google search athagorithm will probably bury anyway, when you could bang a video out in an hour.
>>
>>977610
What did you want to learn? I'll tell you how to do it in text.
>>
>>980994
Blender experiment on it has proven that such concepts fail. Including on Maya, many things got removed and added. Anyone remember FBX converter, too bad it’s gone and I still see videos saying to convert certain blender models to it when such software is gone.
>>
>>977696
yeah, this. It's the same with the pajeets that do coding tutorials.
>>
>>977610
more like why are modellers so ableist against adhd retards who can only follow text (I'm the retard)

>>977785
search before 2022
>>
>>977610
Modelers need to pay attention in order to do good work.

Your comment is retarded and african in nature.
There is no one further from ADHD than a 3D modeler.

i kinda of get this feeling, some times i would be happier with a magazine, but there still are few resources like that on 3d modeling magazines.
it kinda sucks even more because there are some REALLY good recourses like that in other languages... right now the best "anime character creation tutorial for blender" is a magazine / passion project of some Japanese guy.
>>
>>984569
>One person magazine
Bullshit, who hired you, the corporate company sells lots of products.

https://www.mynavi.jp/eng/

It’s not even a magazine, the text clearly says manual. It’s the scam version of sdc publications. They release book versions of products and get people to learn nothing about real world CGI or concepts.
>>
>>977610
>everything is a youtube tutorial
well what the fuck do you want? a fucking picture? Are you a fucking retard? Do you want it in fucking morse code you massive retard?
>>
>>984574
Of course it has all publisher you dumb fuck...
The volume itself is a passion project for the author since from the beginning he was the one who approached them and was well aware that those wouldn't sell much since last year.
The volume on the right is the new one that just released, with just a little more backing since it actually sold an reasonable amount for such a niche topic on Japan.
The author is the same guy who goes by @natsumori_katsu on Twitter and it's the guy behind this channel https://www.youtube.com/@user-sy9do4tr4h
>>
>>984581
Started in 2020, red flag, vroid model uploaded, red flag, publisher is known marketing agency, red flag, no actual human interaction on videos and twitter is dead, red flag, etc.

It’s a scam, I know you people don’t know this but Vroid studio doesn’t accept custom content. Pixiv on the very start had let’s say more inappropriate content that Americans would hate. As such, only Vroid was allowed. You can clearly see it’s bad intentions when the model morths out of place, body parts go in and out, etc.

The common usage is Metasequoia 4 as it’s the real supported software for Vroid. What ever dumb thing the scammer did, will not work with real software like MMD, Vroid movie or Vroid Unity plugin.

As for the art yes it’s great but in the videos, you see it was done by many plugins which some are paid. The scammers clearly has zero knowledge about rigging and animation must be careful because he doesn’t understand how clothing works thus tries to manipulate how it should work instead of working as intended.
>>
>>977696
The most "advanced" tutorials about "anime" modeling and shading that you can possibly get on Youtube are the people trying to emulate and explain how to emulate the Guilty Gear workflow. That's it.
>>
>>984569
got any scans?
>>
>>977821
Can use DeArrow, it's free after 12 hours. Not that it'll fix the problem of the thread
>>
>>977610
Use chatgpt. Even with the occasional mistakes it makes, I find it faster to get info from, than trying to dig it from shitty youtube tutorials. The new model has tons of tutorial related info now, since it can now pull information directly from videos as well.
>>
>>985901
No it can’t, ChatGPT uses subtitles and any video not supported by CC has automatically generated subtitles that can’t understand human language. AI is a scam.
>>
>>985944
4o can easily decipher spoken language directly these days. It can also decipher images and by extension frames. Take a picture of any tool in your 3d software of choice, and it can accurately tell you what that tool is, and how to use it. It's free to use for a bit each day, go and test it, if you don't believe me. Works with Maya at least. Or don't, and be stuck with shitty video tutorials.
>>
>>985964
No it doesn’t work, it doesn’t understand the new Maya 2025 tools, it’s a scam.
>>
>>985970
Of course it doesn't understand Maya's new tools, the checkpoint it uses predates Maya 2025's release. It's not some sentient intelligence, that can look up new information outside of its training. It's a tool.
>>
>>985971
That’s the actual point, it’s useless and requires communication from the developers. It can never understand new stuff.
>>
>>986008
What does this have to do with anything? No one is claiming it's capable of sentience or true understanding, except maybe the worst AI enthusiasts or shitty clickbait websites. But other than that it's incredibly useful for troubleshooting, and for example writing python scripts for Maya. Just because it isn't perfect, doesn't make it useless. On the contrary, it's an amazing assistant. Feel free to waste time by not using it.
>>
>>986050
The dumb AI can’t do code either: https://ai.stackexchange.com/questions/38538/why-does-chatgpt-create-fake-code

It’s not a robot for troubleshooting either: youtube.com/watch?v=g39AagVW0s0

It’s fake no matter what you try to do.
>>
>>986064
I must be imagining all these tools I've been creating, and rigging problems I've solved with it for myself in Maya. It's user error, learn to use the tool properly. If you can't, that just tells more about yourself, than AI. Also, those links are ancient by AI standards, and aren't talking about 4o.
>>
>>986097
It literally is telling people to kill themself. The tool is the problem, you are becoming the problem and will die from it.

https://www.androidauthority.com/shut-down-google-ai-overview-3446038/
>>
>>986197
That's gemini, not gpt. Just because google can't create a decent AI, doesn't mean other can't. Google is horribly behind everyone else in the field.
>>
>>986206
gpt also recommended dying, stop trying to defend the AI when newspapers report the most laughable thing about it.

https://digital.kenyon.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1048&context=dh_iphs_prog

The link is full proof of your point becoming false. A tool isn’t supposed to kill people, a gun can’t kill people. AI is not a tool, it’s a machine that copys our conversation and puts random information on it. Always has been.
>>
>>986212
A document from 2022 will surely convince people. Besides, assuming this was still true, it's not going to tell you to kill yourself, when you're asking it for help on troubleshooting or scripting, so I'm not sure how this is in any way relevant to its performance as an assistant?
>>
>>986215
Yes it will do that, it can even fix a simple problem like flappy bird: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=djIufZ7Fyms

How many times can you be wrong, do you think ChatGPT will help you win this argument? No, it can’t.
>>
>>986215
*Can’t figure out how flappy birds work
>>
>>986216
>>986218
I didn't realize we were having an argument. I was simply trying to educate someone, who clearly doesn't understand what AI's use case is. Again, it won't create you things from scratch, but it will help you create things from scratch.
>>
>>986220
Again no, it doesn’t. You just make that up. AI has proven to never do such thing, the thing is called generative, the definition of random bullshit.
>>
>>977696
Seriously, why is there so many pajeets with Blender tutorial channels? I CAN'T UNDERSTAND YOU FUCKS
>>
>>977610
Oh man I remember doing that Joane of arc tutorial. Text. Step by step.
>>
>>977610
It's generally easier to understand something when real uses of it are demonstrated, which videos are good at. Text is not good at that, especially as this is a visual art. Sequences of pictures demonstrating, with a little explanation text, can be wonderful though.
