Just use a tileable texture, but if you want more fidelity, you can make a single noodle trim texture and map it as a transparent texture onto a simple plane. You can use curves to create noodles, but render them as flat planes, then unwrap and map to the noodle trim.

Why does zooming randomly break in Blender? When I scroll forward on the mouse wheel, I should be able to zoom inside the model I'm working on if I zoom too much. The problem is, sometimes it randomly triggers something that causes the zoom amount to cap. It also makes panning go extremely EXTREMELY slow until I zoom out more.

Anonymous at Sun, 6 Feb 2022 02:47:42 UTC No. 880440

think of like there is a tiny dot your view is centered around. panning moves the dot, rotating moves your view around it.

you can quickly get things back to normal again by centering your view around an object in the scene.

Why the fuck isn't shift-select working for selecting bones in weighted paint mode?! Again, it just randomly stopped fucking working. I select the rig, then the mesh, enter weighted paint mode, and I STILL can't select bones. Blender is over 20 fucking years old and these idiot developers still can't get weight painting right.

The default zoom method is like having a camera on a selfie stick. It can only get so close to the target. Go to preferences, navigation, zoom to try different zoom methods.

>>880452
Try parenting the mesh to the armature with empty weight groups. This will add bone groups to the vertex group tab for that mesh.

This makes weight painting a lot more convenient, as you can quickly switch between vertex groups for painting.

With a lot of ripped game models, I notice the meshes are split apart everywhere, and if you do a merge verts by distance, it merges like 1000+. This results in some vertex normal artifacts spawning.

What exactly gives with these? Are they supposed to be split apart? Wouldn't this result in the mesh being split when animating with bones?

Anonymous at Mon, 7 Feb 2022 00:48:49 UTC No. 880708

>>880707
it's usually an artifact after export. they want the model to be sharp in areas, so they mark it as such in the software. not every game engine supports this so they have to split those verts in order to maintain that affect.

just use a weld modifier, works for me.

Please let me know if this is the wrong thread/board, as I don't usually use 4chan.
I'm trying to convert a .blend file into a .fbx (I think) and then into a .vrm filetype. Every tutorial I can find for my purposes uses Unity- not a problem- but they also only work for humanoid bone structures, and my model is quite... not that. I theoretically could make a human bone stucture and leave my model as the head while leaving the rest of the bones without mesh, but I'd rather keep the model as-is. If any of y'all know how to accomplish what I'm trying, I'd greatly appreciate some pointers, even if they're pointing me to the correct board/thread.

Extending from this: say I wanted to save two different instances of my character's hand; one where it's flat, and one where it's clenched into a fist.
I could change from one to another by triggering controller bone (i believe this is what drivers are for), but it wouldn't affect the rest of the rig, just the hand bones.

How do I go about setting this up? Surely there is a way, because it would save so much time compared to individually keyframing every single finger bone every time I need to go from flat to clenched.

The timeline, that's where all animation is made. I believe it's at the bottom of the screen by default. You set keyframes for all relevant bones on frame 1, change to frame 100, apply the pose and keyframe the bones again. There, you've got your slider from 0 to 1.

If I create a pose with the hand clenched, that pose is a saved instance of the entire armature, not just the hand. I can't use it at any point in the animation, because it will revert the entire armature to the state it was in when I created that specific pose.

I DON'T want the eye bones to which the eye is parented via Bone nor the tongue bones to which the tongue is parented via Automatic Weights to have a role in the deformation of the head.
Here's my operation: select body mesh > select armature > go in pose mode > press A to select all bones > deselect the bones I don't want to deform the body > Ctrl + P > Parent With Automatic Weights.
This doesn't work: if I try rotating the eyes it rotates the eye socket around it as well. I know I COULD fix that with weight painting but I was wondering if there was a method which would spare you the hassle, i.e. by exlcuding them from deforming the body mesh in the first place

>>881684
Oh shit wait I just remembered, I can do that by going to the body mesh, go to vertex groups and eliminate the bones I don't want to play a role in the deformation from the list

Really could use the ability to set interpolation for each color stop of the ramp separately in Blender right about now.

That's just the default HDRI in the material preview, isn't it? Looks like the rim light is done with materials, likely using the layer weight node.

I actually really enjoy weightpainting now. I always wanted the symmetry to work based on space rather than topo and it just works.

I don't like the 2.8-3 layouts, though, the UI is oversimplified, and I had everything memorised before. I've been learning Python for other reasons, though, and maybe one day I'll be able to make an addon to force 3's ui into something that resembles 2.79's.

I manged to get a Blend world into the Halo 3 engine, while the world itself is trash I just whipped up with sculpt mode and about 7 subdivides on the bottom face. It is just a proof of concept. But the fact I managed to get a scratch built map from blender to Halo 3/HEK blam engine feels something of an accomplishment.

I eventually want to create a working MP for the halo reach engine that would use AI controlled turrets to guard a base that can be deactivated by the opposing team in BTB objective games.

Is there actually any way to do a physics driven ragdoll animation for characters in Blender?

Like for example having them walk, then playing an animation where they stumble and as it finishes, the character switched to a ragdoll mode and falls limp to the flor.
Or if an explosion happens and you need them to blow away while having their arms and whatnot flailing all over the place.

Is CGCookie still a solid site for learning mid-tier blender skills? I'm not a pure novice anymore, but haven't done much in terms of rendering, animation, or composition. My skillshit has been making and rigging armors, weapons, and background assets for basic unity games.

I originally subbed to CGCookie back in the Blender 2.79 days to learn the basics, but remember being disappointed that the lessons didn't include UV planning. That was something I needed when joining friends' first Unity game. I eventually shifted to Grant Abbitt's tutorials and community for learning.

Fully aware of the BlenderGuru clickbait marketing model and the big "video tutorial paysite" bubble of the late 2010s. That's why I'm asking. Would you still recommend it?

Boy that was a fun week trying to google that vague idea.

I think they've just started to with their updated Basics course. Not sure what the rush is though, for the most part it's still very similar to 2.9 and 2.8.
Also again, they focus more on livestream lessons these days.

>And what would the alternatives would you recommend to cgcookie?
Alternatives as in professional organizations that create Blender courses?
Check out Blender Cloud (now called Blender Studio i believe) from the Blender Foundation themselves.

https://studio.blender.org/

Besides that, you just have to find the courses/tutorials that work for you scattered across Gumroad, Udemy, Youtube, FlippedNormals and maybe Skillshare.

Looks like a new Blender tutorial group called CGBoost:

https://academy.cgboost.com/

I don't know how good their tutorials are, but it looks like they're aiming to compete with CGCookie and Blender Studio based on presentation.

Sculpting in Blender is irrelevant unless the developers pre-allocate more memory (won't happen) or implement ZBrush's proprietary 2.5D rendering algorithm (won't happen).

There is no point in sculpting in Blender when the performance tanks so quickly. You can't even do retopology on a high poly sculpt without bad viewport performance. At best, the only reason to use Blender's sculpting is for sculpting in minor details in a polymodeled mesh.

I have only ever assigned separate objects to armatures, never weighted them. How can I assign specific vertices 100% to one bone, and other vertices 100% to another bone? How do I assign vertices 50/50 to both bones?

select your verts in the 3dview, set the weight slider under the list of vertex groups in that panel to 0.5, select vertex group A in the list, hit assign, select vertex group B in the list, hit assign again.
if you've got verts that are assigned to groups already selected, you can see what groups the active vertex is assigned to and copy weights between them in the 3dview side panel (on the right, hit N) -> item -> vertex groups.

I'm doing quake-like mapping in blender and i've just been using triplanar shaders to cheat. Obviously that doesn't work well for every surface. I'd like to swap ENTIRELY off triplanar and onto UVs just so i'm not juggling 2 materials for every texture.
Is there a way to generate UVs that follow my triplanar mapping from within blender?
My preferred behavior:
>UVs are to-scale / not packed. It's okay if they go out of the bounds of 0->1
>touching surfaces with the same normal form their own islands
>if it's a sloped surface, project along the Z axis. not so picky about this one since I'll probably go back and set these UVs by hand

It's only colour, you can always sculpt with stamps or use tiling normal maps for parts of the body that don't need to hold up to scrutiny.

Likewise, for roughness & specular level maps you can derive those maps from the heightmap from your sculpt.

Correct godrays are tricky. These godrays are from the normal of the water surface. Did it in 15 so you'll probably have to polish it for better results.

So I must be a retard or something, but in 2.83 you could select something in the hierarchy (outliner because Blender also retarded), like "Pose" or the geometry of a object, and it would automatically switch to whatever the relevant object interaction mode was for that type of thing.
Now, in 2.93, it just, doesn't. Forcing me to stop what I'm doing, get out to object mode, select the object in question, make sure it's ACTUALLY selected as it just, doesn't at times, then manually select the relevant object manipulation mode.

How the fuck do I fix this? Sure it's not going to kill me, but it breaks the work flow something fierce to have to jump around for no reason when they already had this right previously.
>Just use keyboard shortcuts fag
Fuck you and your keyboard shortcuts. To do repetitive tasks and/or it's something that's genuinely a pain in the ass to do otherwise and/or if you're a complete tryhard sure, but a million keyboard shortcuts, especially ones that have no relevancy outside of the one software, is not ever the reasonable solution.

What render settings do I need to do in order to get the hair to look like hair?
These are from a 3D model of Park ripped from CoD someone uploaded as an FBZ. I manually re-linked all the texture and normal map tga files. The left in texture paint view is the effect I want, and the right is what I am currently rendering at. It looks the same no matter what settings I use for the sampling parameters.

Anonymous at Mon, 21 Feb 2022 10:22:44 UTC No. 883875

>>883869
You need the custom shader that the textures was meant to go with. Hair shaders for games are
almost always fully custom shaders that handle transparency anisotropy and fresnel/rim light etc in special ways to
make them hair cards look like groups of volumetric filaments.

Usually in combination with special meshdata that pretrubes the normals/binormal/tangent of the geometry to shade as a
unit instead of disjointed haircards, meshdata that may or may not been transferred correctly via the ripper.
(google 'normal thief' if you wanna know what that is about)

There are no render settings you can use to make it appear like it does in the game. A custom HLSL shader equivalent is needed.

Hi all, haven't used blender professionally since 2014 and I'm struggling to remember a few things.
Problem here is that I don't even know what the right question to ask is, so I'll briefly say what I wanna do and hopefully someone can point me in the right direction:

I have an image that I want to insert particle animations in to.
Rather than recreating the scene entirely, then texturing, lighting, adding particles to, and rendering it, I want to create the basic geometry of the scene using models, then use the models for a physics simulation with those particles, and render the scene showing only the diffused reflections of the particles onto the models, without the models themselves, so I end up with a render of nothing but the lighting effects that can then be overlayed on top of the original image.
But it's been so long that I've forgotten all the industry terms for whatever the hell it is I want to do.
All help appreciated, just doing a quick mockup first to make sure everything works how I want it to, pic related.

For example, VRChat doesn't use Upper Chest, Jaw and Toe bones.

Should I make the poses based on models with these bones (Blender in general) or without these bones (VRChat)?

This is for an animation in a game mod. I cannot change the parental structure of the rig. I've messed around with bone constraints like Limit Distance and Limit Location, but the results aren't great.

Do rephrase: how do I make sure Bone B stays still while I move Bone A, while Bone B is still parented to Bone A?

the thing about motion blur is that you should do it in passes so it can be comped in post. Otherwise, you'll be in for a world of hurt.

Move bone B the inverse of the parent's movement. Anon, come on, wakey wakey.

Do whatever you like. I think you should use such addons responsibly, because if you can't make a gear yourself, you're just going to depend on it instead of learning. There's tons of people here who think rigging is hard instead of just time consuming, because they all cheat themselves first instead of learning now and then saving time with shortcut methods later. Don't be like these shitters, >>884244 >>884255 or you'll be like them for a long time.

10 years ago I was taught Autodesk Maya but I dropped out of university. I wanna get back on this, but I want to master Blender instead. Not that it matters since I barely remember how to do anything. What's a good tutorial to find and get the rust off my brain?

The cloth sim is retarded and starts misbehaving at small scales. It's one of the areas of blender where it's not recommended to use real-world scales.
Try scaling your model 15x or so, should be much better.

Is there a way to create more of these default viewport axis angles? Lets say I want one with x y z all at 45 degrees? Or, is there a way to manually set the degrees? Lets say I want a camera to be at those angles

I managed to drastically reduce the floating by minimizing the "object collision" distance of the dress cloth modifier and removing the dress collision modifier.
If I do use the massive upscaling method, will it work after I bake the dress then scale everything back down to normal size?

Yes and it will also work better with self-collisions

I managed to get a dress to work mostly right at normal scale. Is there a way to add a "fashion tape" sort of material over the nipples to avoid wardrobe malfunctions when simulating? Half the sims run OK, but the other half result in lewds. I was thinking either to add a pastie mesh over the nipples or change the friction parameter on the nipples alone.

Also, is there a way to model the cross straps on the back? The dress model is currently mirrored to make tailoring easier, but the "X" structure means it needs to reach across the mirror axis. I can't select items on the other side right now in edit mode.

What are some quality Blender tutorials, I think the sticky post is outdated.
Does Blender 3.0 warrant a more recent tutorial.
Don't care if it's free or paid.

Ok, how do you animate wax dripping on an object and have the wax dry over time?

Is this the "GIMP's circle shape tool of Blender"?

It's certainly possible with Houdini.
I guess with Blender we'll have to wait for physics nodes in order to spawn multiple fluid domains and set their viscosity independently from each other.

By hand. I would probably suggest something like a fluid simulation first, converted to mesh, then take a stationary piece of mesh, duplicate it, change its shape to what you want it to look like when it'd dried up, make it into a shape key, then slowly turn the shape key on over time.

How would I go about making this shape? I'm not sure if you can tell from the picture but it curves into itself at an angle. I have boxcutter etc, but still new (less than 10hrs experience)

How should I copy the rest pose of the high heel shoes to the armature of the feet as an actual pose? In pic related they are both in rest position right now. Both models came from Daz but were obtained separately. The shoes were imported with Diffeomorphic and the body the legs are based on are Genesis 8 female (another Daz model). The shoes are compatible with the Genesis 8 female in Daz. I don't mind doing the bone constraints or whatever by hand since there should only be a few of them.

Figured it out: had to set the roll parameter on the heels armature to be the same as on the person.

remesh and smooth modifiers
now with geonodes maybe mesh to volume -> volume to mesh or something
