Arrimus is using it.
Are you? Is it worth learning?

Plasticity is a big meme, but yeah, it's worth it

Probably my favorite 3D software ever. Glad I have my perpetual license before they are eventually bought out by some megacorp and enshittified. 90% of what I used to do in blender I do in plasticity now, it’s been an actual hard surface game changer for me, and has made 3D modeling incredibly fun.

Is Blender sculpting good enough if i just want to make huge animu tiddies models?

yes although sculpting isn't the only way to do it. a lot of people learn sculpting and nothing else and wind up using sculpting as a crutch when other approaches can be easier to create smooth shapes. i've generally never found sculpting useful in modeling the human part of a figure at the lower poly stage
>>
>>979696
that just means you need to work on your rigging skills. it's a given that you'll have to spend time adjusting weights and creating blendshapes any time you're deforming a figure using an armature

> the worthless shitstain of bending and deforming blender does while still not having bones you can properly mesh attach but a bloody loop of 5+ same shit of grouping, parenting, linking, joining and god knows what else they added that does the same fucking thing but doesnt work with something else randomly
Is there a program that doesn't do that? Just started with Blender and this is probably my biggest fucking issue with it.

I'm a autodidact polymath with an IQ of 142. Socrates said 'To know thyself is the beginning of wisdom.'
People who know me would tell you I'd be the first one to admit I'm pretty retarded.

Checkmate anon I countered your argument thru verification, that was some 4D-chess shit and you have to view me as a sophist now.
For how could I have crafted such an argument if I didn't posses the blinding ingenuity of a true shitpost-poet?

You can call me pseud but would a 'pseud' really be able to craft this post? Yeah that's right anon, you don't believe that either
you recognize the fearsome intelligence looming behind the retarded text that just entered your skull straight thru your eyeballs.

It's wise of you to admit that your post are retarded, I can't argue with that.
But your argument proves half of my point, and I quote >Don't worry anon I don't think that you are a sophist, I think that you are retarded.
Now I know that you are both.

I'm cool with that. Thanks anon, I would tip my fedora if I had one but I've always been a baseball cap kinda guy so I'll tip that one in it's place.
>>
>>979517
You don't need to tip anything. But it was a pleasure to help you knowing yourself better.
Now when you are older and wiser you can tell that story to your grandchildren.

Dunning–Kruger effect: the board

>>978668
It's really stupid to see how many of the typical 4chan brain rot tropes you'll find on this board. Even the simple concept of how it matters more what you create then what tools you use to create said thing (provided you're not using caveman technology that causes you to drown in inefficiency) is lost upon most users.

This obsession with "making it" is also only found in this echo chamber. They would have kids and teenagers be put in experimentation hell if they had their way until they reached their 20's and still stuck at the hobbyist stage with their training incomplete however comfortable they might be on a general level.

The real trick is that you will not necessarily "switch" to this or that software and then have it be some silver bullet for your wage slaving prospects, but you will have to learn and leverage all of them for your advantage. Each is just a tool for your tool chest.

So, there is this show Miraculous Ladybug with multiple studios handling the animation process. We have 3 very cheap studios and 1 expensive Korean studio SAMG.

Recently, there was huge leak with models from the show, and ppl can make own stuff with it. But no matter what technics people use, no one can repeat what SAMG is doing. Any speculations what they are exactly doing to make models look like this? Triangle lighting doesn't seem enough, and Sun lighting don't really matches the outcome.

They're using Maya 2015 and Vray 3.05/3.6

>>
>>945874
It would be strange if they didn't. Postprocessing can be night and day. But there are also plenty of little tricks that can be employed, such as lights that ONLY influence certain meshes or components. Dedicated point lights for specular highlights on the eyes is a very common example of this and, while subtle, helps sell "life" to characters even in very dark scenes. Both of these can be used to set the mood and establish clarity in ways realistic, accurate lighting never could.

I'm working with some ancient shit here and need advice. I've created a map via an application called Trenchbroom, which allows you to texture your environment, as seen below. I then exported the map to an OBJ and MTL file. However, I gotta convert the map to an X file, which I've done through Wings3D. But texturing is a bitch - I need a UV map. I can only load in one PNG per object in the game engine (it's old as fuck). I tried doing it in Wings3D, but each brush had its own window pop up, and it crashed my computer. Should I just texture in Blender? Will it create an automatic UV map or something? Help me through this and i'll send you lots of prayers, I hate this shit
>>
>>979212
One PNG per object? Sounds gay.

UV mapping is super easy in blender, just look at some 2 min tutorial and you are set. The MTL file has the UV in it and all the other PBR shit but obviously you are using some ancient grandpa aah engine for dementia patients with no PBR so figure out the rest on your own.
>>
>>979213
Yeah dude. Let's watch 2 minutes tutorial on youtube and then work for 10 years to manually UV unwrap every single pebble in our scene. That'll teach those old people how WE do things. Yeah.
>>
>>979212
Maybe you should not use Source Filmmaker and actually learn common 3D software that aren’t outdated or abandoned.

I use Inventor, its pretty easy. Not free unfortunately, student license is available though. Not sure the benefits of Fusion over Inventor outside of animation, rendering or concept design.. heard people prefer it but I tried it and seemed amateurish in comparison. If you are wanting to do those types of things go fusion but if its more technical type design with complex assemblies and moving parts then into technical drawings I would go Inventor.
