Personally, this is some of the most creative modeling and animation I've seen in years

>>986727 >>986926
Sorry, it's just Blender. I modeled the octagonal base and I'm just typing out the polygon and texture information manually
In the output properties (Red) I enabled Metadata -> Burn Into Image and Note, and put the polygon count information manually on the Note field.
Since it didn't let me type more than one line normally I used a script (Yellow) to insert the text with the new lines directly on the Note field.
And for rendering I'm using the Viewport Render function rather than the normal rendering so I can use the Viewport Overlay menu (Green) to control whether wireframes get rendered, and I set the background color on the theme preferences

Don't listen to the faggots in this thread they are all larpers who don't even know how to make their pps bigger. I'll tell you something only a true wizard knows.

VOP is easiest because it's the same as vex only noded. Well technically SOP is easier but VOP exists in SOP. DOP is dynamic so its anything being done in frames over time. All use VEX underneath so you can do it all the same in different ways.
I'll use increasing my pp size as an example.
In vex here is how I make my pp bigger:

float makemyppbig = chf("pp_slider");
@pscale = makemyppbig;

In VOP its just two nodes. one Constant connected to a bind export that is named "pscale", make sure it is a float.

There is a sop for changing vex attributes called "attribute create" call it "pscale", again make sure it's a float and done!

That's beautiful but there is in fact a much simpler way.


Simply start with a box or tube if thou wants to make a cone instead.

Then create a group with the selected top face as the primitive and then convert that primitive group to a point group with a group promote and finally a fuse sop with the selected converted group and a snap distance of at least 1.5 but preferably 10.

This way thou gets access to cube and tube nodes for easier manipulation.

>>968818 thou can then put all of this into a subnet connected to paramters and you will have an easy to use cone/pyramid sop.

My plan is to learn enough modelling and composition so I can make NSFW "art" and sell it on Fanbox/Patreon/Gumroad. I have identified a niche of degenerates that seem underserved and recently a big artist in that niche burned out. I'm thinking of giving his audience a new home. He published a new comic every month of roughly 60 pages consisting of shots from around 3 or 4 scenes, all rendered in DAZ. I think this can be trimmed by at least half. He was a bit too into his own story and characters and cutting that out while keeping the degenerate stuff will keep me from burning out too.

Do you guys think this is a viable idea?

The market is fucking over saturated, the fucking world economy is in a recession and no one has fucking money to throw at retarded coomer artists.
Either come back in a couple years or better spend your time learning a skill or trade that will actually make you enough money to keep your roof over your head.

Learning 3D for monies right now is dumb. Doing it as a hobby is great.

I'm having an annoying issue with studio library, probably me using it wrongly. If I add a run animation to a character in a scene, so I don't have to animated it every time, it snaps back to where the root is, and aligning it so you can't tell afterwards is a problem.

So I wanted to make a Mel script to create a locator at the current position of the character, then constrain the root to that position so the character will end up in the same place, but I can't get this fucking Mel garbage to work. Even examples online just give me syntax errors.
Now I'm just trying to select the locator and set its translateY to 0, but how to I set the position of either a named object, or the selection?
spaceLocator -p 0 0 0 -name FuckYouMaya;
parentConstraint -skipRotate x -skipRotate z Character:RootX_M FuckYouMaya;
select -r FuckYouMayat_parentConstraint1 ;
delete;
select -r FuckYouMaya

Was originally trying to learn blender but the user interface is really slow for me to use and even after getting the hang of it im just not enjoying making stuff with it. I would have been happy to buy C4D outright but since they've changed to subscription plans I'll be pirating it.

Which one should I invest my time learning? Is it beneficial to learn both?
>>
it's hard to recommend c4d these days unless you really want to get into the advertising industry.
it is intuitive, but it's also a mess these days - all i ever see from power users are complaints about speed and stability.
the new dynamics stuff in c4d is better than blender's, but it's much worse than houdini.

if you just want to fuck around and have fun then t bh pick whatever, it doesn't matter all that much. iirc cracked c4d doesn't include a gpu renderer these days so you'll probably have to pirate arnold (don't rely on new octane or redshift cracks, doesn't happen regularly).

if you want pursue a generalist path and take it somewhat seriously then blender/maya + houdini is the way to go right now.

its kind of like building a plane in 1920 vs a plane in 2024.

back then all you needed was wood, canvas, and knowledge of aerodynamics.
now you need to understand jet engines, combustion, materials science, and a billion other things.

>>983094
It's not that. The difference is the amount of "regulations" or "industry standards" or "APIs" that are completely useless but that you're expected and in some cases bullied into learning.

There are plenty free open source game engines available. It's easier than ever to avoid sketchy companies.
https://github.com/bobeff/open-source-engines

>>983438
Yeah, I don't know why so many people seem to think that the only alternative to unreal/unity is to build your own engine from the ground up. It's like if someone got sick of living in San Francisco and decided to move to the Principality of Sealand.
>>983094
And likewise, there's nothing stopping you from building your canvas plane today. In fact, modern materials, engines and knowledge means that you can make a better canvas plane than at any other point in history, and in much less time. Your canvas plane might not compete directly with Airbus or Lockheed Martin's offerings, but there are still people out there who want canvas planes.
Although dropping the analogy for a second, while the resurgence of the boomer shooter proves that older, simple games can still see success, it's still going to be much easier to make one in a premade engine and normies probably aren't going to care whether you made your own engine or not, and they certainly won't be interested in using said engine.

it's not that you need "uniform topology (spread equally)" you're suggesting there should be grids of pointless quads on every flat surface?

a lot of people misinterpret advice they heard for making AAA character models with complex moving shapes and apply it to all of 3d modelling, regardless of whether its applicable or a good use of time, especially if you're just practicing

not necessarily, right? i thought it was dependent on what you were trying achieve. like with curves and smooth surfaces in subd modeling, absolutely. but with other geometry you would want it to be uneven (e.g. control loops, specific shapes).
