>>998813as opposed to having a million jeets selling stolen content
>>999146this is kind of why meta wont have a serious platform - until they can open it up to general compute ie make what you want, sell what you want, when you want, like a normal desktop even with all the new sensors like eye tracking included
>>999250My quest 2 runs right off the desktop with steam and epic and all that, I almost never use just Quest native stuff. One plugin tied Blender 4.2 to my quest.
>>998806>picturesdude they are full 3D animated scenes with a moving heav POV and 3D sound. real pros add the open source eye tracker and keep eyecontact with the pony while it does its buisness
>>998795you can thank me later you can develop an XR experience without downloading a shit thanks tohttps://doc.babylonjs.com/features/featuresDeepDive/webXR/webXRDemoshttps://threejs.org/docs/#manual/en/introduction/How-to-create-VR-content
Use this as a place to help rebuild after the great purge /3/ I autisically save everything so hopefully I can help give back to a board that I love on this god-forsaken Mongolian basket weaving site
>>1002531>>1004216why do you niggas think im him, im just reposting stuff that got nuked. i don't fucking know anything NIGGA
>>1004110just use blender, blockbench is ass for anything other than minecraft mods, woodcarving a model then 3d scanning it would be more efficient than blockbench
>>1004262tried blockbench. the editor is super janky lol. gonna download blender 3.6 and learn that instead
>>1004259why do you think replying to you means I think it's you? I saw a nice poly ass and asked the thread for tipsI've been trying to do something MML-ish but sexy, and it's a lot easier to do that with tits than ass

Painting with stencils allows you to use textures generated by an algorithm to quickly photobash your models. Here, a tutorial will be shown on how to do this from the basics.
>>999421i really like this tutorial format of written instructions on top of screenshots, rather than videos that i have to constantly pause.is there an archive of tutorials like this?
>>1001019Yes, I’m 37 years old, so when I was young, the internet was too slow and expensive to have online videos.Back then, tutorials were like this, a sequence of images and text.But they were always incomplete or skipped details, so since I have OCD, when I take notes, I do it this way I document everything in the form of screenshots and text. I've been doing it for a long time. And now with ChatGPT, I can write the instructions in Spanish, since that's my main language, and instantly translate them to English, even improved with better organization.And yes, the advantage is that if you make them clearly, they’re better than a video because you can pause and analyze each step, and you can skip the rest.I’ve been thinking about creating a Discord and posting them all there.
cool

What's the best application to use for rigging 3D models if you are limited to mobile devices? My PC just shat the bed and it's going to be a while before I can afford to fix it or replace it, so I'm trying to work with what I have. I have found apps for 3D modeling, animation, and even retopo, but for some reason nothing for rigging.
>>1002780I don’t think it can do rigging, the process requires a lot of data and percussion in certain situations.
>>1002780You've found apps for 3D animation? Drop a name or link?
This thread again? Are you the same guy who's been "new to Blender" for the last decade? Are you Cris?
What is the best workflow or tool to maintain consistent texel density in Blender? All I can find online is basically either "just place a reference plane with texture and manually scale every single texture comparing to that plane by eyeballing" or "idk bro I just select all my objects and unwrap them all together". This can't be serious right? This is very very far from something I would consider productive. Which is something like: a global setting to set texel density affecting all unwrap, uv and object operations, like 1m for 1024x1024, and then all unwraps take it into consideration and if any face of any object ever goes beyond 1m it will automatically get tiling of its texture. If it's less than 1m texture will not shrink to fit either. Is there anything like this?
I was working on something else, when I suddenly got an idea for this old thread, so giving it a bump.
>>1001222MagicUV has some texel density functionality as well, it's a free addon that used to come bundled with Blender, now I think it's some extension you can install with a few clicks.
>>1001187whats up with those uvs
>>1003837I don't know how to answer that question. But I basically added seams where "square" topology is. So when it's unwrapped, everything can be straightened into neat squares. Or rectangles rather.
>>1003678>>1001364Welp, I don't have it. My idea brought me closer. But I still don't have it in me.Here's what I'm trying to do:Step 1, assign every face a basic XY UV coordinate. This is the easy part. I got that.Step 2, modulo the UVs to give faces multiple XY coordinates. This is halfway there. As you can see in the image. When the face shrinks and grows, it divides into a greater density of UVs in the face. As it's supposed to. The problem is they're becoming too dense too quickly. The UVs divide exponentially. But they do so at intervals that aren't exponential. So they divide too fast.Step 3, adjust the UVs to bend quadrilaterally. You probably notice that some of the UVs in the screenshot are skewed That's because they're aligned to the triangles of the face. Which has a diagonal line cutting through. This diagonal offsets the interpolation between face points in an ugly way. In order to fix that, you have to do extra math to tell the everything inside of a face to bend to the quad, not to the triangle. This is too hard for me. I can't figure it out.Step 4, after all the other steps are done, accumulated each face's X and Y coordinates in such a way, that don't overlap in UV space.(Packing basically) This is another one I haven't figured it out yet.I still have a lot to learn.
>PrMan once again became the best renderer>tfw incredible point release with 27 coming soon tooany anons aware of this
no one uses the best renderer?
>>1004139No, too expensive for an average result. There's a lot of cheaper renderers on the market that produced similar results
>>1003937How is the GPU support?
>>1004204finally motion blur is working fully on gpu

Why aren't you creating your own 3D animated webseries? Glitch is selling endless amounts of merch and making shitloads in ad revenue. You could potentially create the next Amazing Digital Circus.
>>994832because I refuse to exploit people
>>994883Where do you work at?
I've been making an animated series by myself for two years. Some days I want to shoot myself, but other days I want to hang myself.
>>994832I would love to but I am just starting and I don’t know anything and I live in wide eyed terror of fucking up my model in a way I cannot even fathom nor fix
>>994837>No you can’t do something similar without money and peoplePicrel is being made by one guy.
On the left is Ratchet from Transformers Prime. On the right is Ratchet from the fan film Transformers Prime: Galvatron's Revenge?Why does the right look so...cheap? I don't think it's JUST missing details or flat textures (except where the torso meets the neck for some reason), though it sure does not help.It's got to be something in the materials, then? My first thought would be the lack of AO or self shadows, especially the . On the other hand, there are some moments that do show SOME self-shadowing. Either that or I don't really know the difference between AO and self-shadowing
Took a quick look, looks like they just had janky lighting on all the interior scenes. The exteriors are mostly fine cause there's an hdri with a bit of variation, anything where they were relying on their own lights looks super flat. Like compare the difference in spec between these 2 random shots
>>1004091Doesn't look like they have any maps to add imperfections, The models in Prime had scratch marks and paint chips, as can be seen with the picture of Ratchet in the OP.
>>1004097Yeah, that's what I meant by flat textures. It's more apparent with Bulkhead. In the show proper, almost every edge on his body is "lined" with scratches
>>1004097>>1004105Still, that wouldn't have much to do with the way the light hits and stuff like that...right?
>>1004118Nah wouldn't have that much of an effect. They do have a bit of breakup but for characters like this where they're completely metal, 95% of the look would come from reflections and lighting. If you try to overcompensate with grunge you end up on the other end of the scale with babby's first substance painter materials, and it'd make the forms read even worse. If you have marmoset toolbag you can try playing around with a sphere and just tweaking the roughness / metalness values with different HDRIs, there's not really much more to this sort of metal
I can now make an HD frame in 15 minutes after an initial investment of 6 days.It's my most expensive workflow, but also the one that delivers the highest quality so far.I have now mastered 3D.Meanwhile you were argueing like idiots about tools and making fun of me, I was mastering blender and Krita.I'm now really happy with this workflow.
>>1001113Can we get a full body render of the model?
I never doubted your prowess, cris
can I get a rundown on the technology, usecases, etc.is it just photogrammetry
>>1001113>Meanwhile you were argueing like idiots about tools and making fun of me, I was mastering blender and Krita.Those things aren't mutually exclusive Cris. I can make fun of you, argue about software and master an artsyle/package all at the same time. Amazing isn't it?
stick to the general please
I make a living modelling avatars for furries on VRChat
>>1001679I can't even afford a VR headset so i never really missed out on this lolBut yeah, i feel you. Makes me wonder how people even go so big, as an horribly antisocial retard myself networking is a near impossible task.
>>1001679I hate to state the obvious, but have you posted a commision sheet and everything? I get the impression that a lot of people, furries especially, don't like to cold approach for commisions, they just take their business to the people they know will say yes.Also, do you have a deviantart? I've had a few people send me messages asking to commision me (most likely for a render, not a full model, but still) despite me being extremely niche within my extreme niche and having no interest in comms. Maybe there are more people willing to commision people there? I doubt it, but it will at the very least spread your work to new clientele.
>>1003451> (most likely for a render, not a full modelwhat does this mean in simple terms, like adding accessories to an avatar or what?
>>1003616I mean that they were probably looking to pay me to do some modeling work and then render a scene for them, and didn't want to commission a model. I wouldn't know the exact details, our conversation was >hello, do you do commissions?>sorry to disappoint, but I am not currently accepting commissions.I just upload fetish porn to DA that primarily features furry characters, and I don't think they're a furry so I doubt they were interested in me making a model for them, especially given the time/quality ratio I was capable of at the time.
>>1003451I have a commission sheet for my 2D work, but not 3D. That and setting up a dA account is good advice, thanks.I'll admit that part of my issue is that I don't have super-high confidence in my work. Topology's kind of screwy and I have issues with rigging. Consistent output, too - sometimes I look at my models and wonder how I did them. I feel like I go into a trance and then I wake up a day or two later with a sculpt ready for retopo. But I'm pretty good about staying on-task when I know I have something to do that someone's paid me for, so I figured that part would take care of itself.
Bros tell me about zbrush on the ipad as well as the CozyBlanket combo. I finally have the hardware. Is it worth getting? I don't want to waste my time on shit. I already have the desktop app (paid)
Zbrush for ipad is really that bad, then?
>>1004004>zbrush on the ipad>CozyBlanketNobody uses that shit, if you want to sculpt on a tablet nomad is the way to go, after that you move your crap to substance painter (desktop)
my shitty cpu wont allow me to good sculpts
