Why is Mayas UI so complicated coming from Blender?
19 replies omitted. Click here to view.

Maya Config Addon for Blender adds Maya's radial menus and binds to the UI

>>1022706
if you're still new to blender, I honestly recommend just using the blender keybinds. I came from 3DS Max and chose something akin to that, and it still is a problem after years, because you can't watch tutorials with keybinds, and some stuff isn't bound at all

yeah, i tried using blender's "industry compatible" mode but it just made it extra janky. it takes like two days to get blender's alternative to "qwer" under your fingers. just suffer it.

if ur coming to blender from maya and miss the spacebar context pie menus, i just found the sickest option, go in preferences, and set spacebar to search, then whenever u wanna do sth just hit spacebar but instead of the context menus like in maya where u need to train ur muscle memory to get fast, u get a search box, type whatever u wanna do, and hit enter. it's literally that easy. no need to train new muscle memory. no need to search around blenders million little collapsed menus and random buttons, just type "edit", hit enter, u in edit mode, space -> loop cut -> enter, u loop cuttin etc.

I guess the key difference these days is we have texture painting and live filters, so you'd model and uv the model and then texture it. Before, you would have all your textures planned out ahead of time and UV the model to fit them.
>>
>>1022899
Other way round. As you can see on that Rinoa each mostly culindricql chunk was unwrapped as a rectangle then island sizes were adjusted depending on the expected level of detail, and then the textures were painted, ie pretty much the same pipeline that survvied until we got UIs to directly paint on the model. In some games like FF9 they didn't even bother to rectangularize the islands

Meanwhile, some idiot with no programming experience makes a game in Unity with perfect collisions and 100.000 different shaders, and earns thousands of dollars. Yes, it’s unfair. But remember that you’re a REAL programmer; they’re a sham.
>>
>>1022793
Im not against anyone using Unity, Unreal or whatever BUT... ...recently i have played darkstein3D (a so called "boomer shooter", essentially a parody of wolfstein3d) made by a single developer. The game is heavily unoptimized and i have noticed some sounds like the static ringphones in the envirorment literally coming in with an unnecessary doppler effect (wich clearly has no reason to be there and irremediably tanks on the CPU). Well, these generic, easy to use engines are making possible, a plethora of (good or bad gameplay side) unoptimized games. I noticed that was going to happen 10 years agò but only recently ive seen the blatant hate towards UE unity etc becoming mainstream. When something gets too accessible (we have seen that already with the internet, because of smartphones) the average quality goes down. In general you are free to use any of these engines but please, take some time to optimize them or learn some basic code, LLM's are going to make the thing even worse i bet.
>>
>>1022793
Also i hate the idea of making hundreds of unnecessary shaders just because you can do it. I have seen a huge amount of indie games literally being made twice as heavy as they should because someone decided it was a good reason to stack 5,6 shaders on a single item. That's again an accessibility problem, some guys got their hands on these magical in-out charts on UE or blender and decided it was a good reason to create overcomplicated shaders without giving a fuck about performances, not even mentioning the SSAO applied everywhere, including voxel games, just because you can press the ceckbox to activate that post processing feature. Literally low poly games overloaded with state of the art illumination techniques.
>>
bro this is such a cool look
>>
>>1022813
No textures there, just colors and shaders. Maybe that's why it looks so raw i dont know, i like the simple style too.

What do you 3D model for anon senpai?

No this is not a doomer thread telling you to stop doing that, if you're doing it that's great, seriously I'm happy for you, don't let AI niggers tell you otherwise.

Personally, I'm drowning myself in this endeavour because of how cringe the world around us is, there's a deep sense of dissatisfaction with the way things are in general (personal life, entertainment, job market, the internet) that I prefer retreating into my own little lala land instead. Too weird to be around normal people, and too normal to be around the modern internet-going crowd: everytime I see some cocksucker repeat the same trite fucking meme like they're a human bot or someone post AI dogshit I'm this close to getting an aneurism, I'm not even 30 and I already feel so far behind modern trends nor do I have any desire to engage with them. It's a state of limbo, it's not terrible but not great either, a comfortable dissatisfaction.

i don't 3D model i just subscribe to the patreon of furry artists and i steal all of their 3D models of renamon, krystal, etc and i store them in a zip folder on my hard drive that i keep telling myself i'll use "some day, when i'm good enough" but that day never comes. now i just commission animators through telegram to make me APNGs of the characters having seggs because animators are waaaay cheaper than 3D modelers (i got one model done for $500 from russia and that's cheap af).

i mostly just got into 3D because i convinced myself i could never draw well. but now rather than drawing, i am stuck in a phantom zone hellscape of vague issues caused by hidden settings. my model was fucking up because i didn't need my cloth physics modifier enabled and i needed professional help to know that. i sold my toyota corolla for a $1300 rig because i thought i'd be making bank working from home. kek

I know this is bait, but I think it's worth responding anyway to help other defeat this misrepresentation. The intention of these verses is obviously to stop the creation of images of idols; things that were meant to be objects of worship. There are obviously images and carvings which are totally appropriate and commanded of God to produce:
>Ex 25:18 And you shall make two cherubim of gold; of hammered work shall you make them, on the two ends of the mercy seat.
>Ex 26:1 “Moreover, you shall make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine twined linen and blue and purple and scarlet yarns; you shall make them with cherubim skillfully worked into them.
>Ex 28:33 On its hem you shall make pomegranates of blue and purple and scarlet yarns, around its hem, with bells of gold between them,
>Num 21:8-9 And the Lord said to Moses, “Make a fiery serpent and set it on a pole, and everyone who is bitten, when he sees it, shall live.” So Moses made a bronze[a] serpent and set it on a pole. And if a serpent bit anyone, he would look at the bronze serpent and live.
>1 Kings 6:23 In the inner sanctuary he made two cherubim of olivewood[...]
>1 Kings 6:29 Around all the walls of the house he carved engraved figures of cherubim and palm trees and open flowers
