There hasnt been a serious addition since 2.8
Geometry nodes are something aimed at such a tiny fraction of the users its not even funny, and asset browser is worthless with no assets to browse.
Basic features like texturing and modeling are extremely fucking lackluster despite this being what people install blender for.

the priority should be modeling > texturing >sculpting > rendering > animation > nodes > other crap
instead its animation > nodes > random crap nobody uses > sculpting >............ >modeling > every other thing in the software > texturing

Ever since they got huge development donations the development speed hit a fucking wall face first, the priorities are completly wrong and actively hurt the future of blender.

Maybe 10 years ago, but now 3d modeling has become almost irrelevant. Most games and film use a sculpting/retopology workflow for organic models and even mechanical ones. Even still, Maya is more than capable, especially with the amount of 3rd party developers and toolsets available.

What blender has is a strong community of users (especially in research and education) and developers, that it's free and very good for that matter.

There is this thing called "Wabi-Sabi", "the art of embracing the imperfect and find beauty in the imperfection of our life". The Japanese pottery art of Kintsugi

What you did is great but people will not like it, you did a great job but humans have feelings and these feelings makes them not like perfect things. I never seen anyone liked a perfect thing, do you like the 1 x 1 x 1 cube in blender? No it sucks. A perfect rainbow? no it looks weird, a perfect human? acts very odd.

Your perfect chocolate bar is art but doesn't look delicious. It doesn't make it feel anything, the whole thing is almost an ad of some sort. However a real ad would not stay in 3D models and instead show actual product that does look good to have a feeling, 3D perfect chocolate bar can't make that same feel.

having a gigantic set of tools that is never used or rarely used is hardly a limitation.
i've built hundreds of models the past 20 years and used most of the major 3d programs for professional work. whatever i cant do easily in maya, i can probably easily do in zbrush, and that seems to be how the industry works right now. if you're just using maya, or just using one program, you're limited in what you can do, and employers know this.

EVERYBODY who does digital art in 2D or 3D needs to learn shortcuts if a clicky workflow is too slow, which it always is.

that's not a fact, that's your opinion
also WTF are easy shortcuts?
CTRL+Shift+A for selecting all is easy and A is not?
WTF dude?
> or lower the amount of use
every shortcut has corresponding menu entry, you're not forced to use shortcuts if you don't want to, but I guess you are too stupid to find them.
I am working all day in Maya and Blenders shortcuts are less demanding on my wrist which I can easily qualify/quantify by the pain I feel after working for 12 hours non-stop.
The fact that you don't have to click-drag all day makes a HUGE fucking different.
I can use Maya's shortcuts and then switch to Blender in a heartbeat and use Blenders shortcuts without problems, if you can't memorize this stuff then you have a shitty brain, blaming the software for your low quality memory is pathetic.
And I say that as a Maya user who dabbles in Blender in his free time.

Now people with fake knowledge are appearing, cearly you never used any other program than blender. Everyone knows Blender has key mapping problems, it became so bad that even blender developers had to add a "Industry Compatible Keymap" but still sucks. Let me list blenders awful keymap:

Shift-Ctrl-Z is awful for redo, it's not natural nor is it fast. Compare to normal everyday softwares that offer Ctrl-Y. Blender is so dumb to change this common fact in computers.

F1-12 in blender is useless, nothing to help you while actual 3d programs have useful tools listing from viewing in certain angles, free space for customization, layers, etc.

"A" one letter in blender is select all, not normal Ctrl-A like all softwares. You can even mess up and press T to mess up on your model or any other common letters because blender was dumb to add important tools in common letters.

You need TAB to go into edit mode while in many 3d programs you can use mouse to make a box in 3 seconds.

The list goes on and on. You didn't proof blender keymap is better you prove it is worst. We are not in the 2000s anymore old man, we can use Keys+mouse or many other different ways but mouse is super common, Blender developers hate mouse.

Also you fail you proof that isn't a fact when Chrome, Firefox, Photoshop, Maya, etc, all use the Ctrl-A not CTRL+Shift+A , only blender uses nonsense keymaps.

Also if you haven't guess by now, we don't just use the old style way. We have this thing called mouse buttons: https://youtu.be/53CE41FFjF0?t=254

We don't need to do the old ways, we have many micros from free to paid softwares that offer faster results. If anything you are the one sounds dumb for not knowing such basic things in computers, such thought process isn't your thing boomer.

Everything you learn when using blender is pretty much only useful in blender. It's like they built the software from imagination and nothing matches industry standards.
blender has a fuckton of tools built in and is very "complete" in that regard, but it's like they didn't usertest everything before pushing it out?

It's called bad UI, Maya has common tools like slice, subtract, merge, etc. While in blender i don't know what you even have in those things. Plus in blender it seems like you have to hover over it.

Maya makes it so easy to remember mouse gestures, it's way faster and knowing it can impress your boss to get a rise.

>Shift-Ctrl-Z is awful for redo, it's not natural nor is it fast.
Using Shift to invert a shortcut is natural. It's the same reason why Ctrl-Tab is used to switch tabs in one direction and Ctrl-Shift-Tab is used to do it in the other direction.

The problem is that sometimes Shift inverts meaning and sometimes Alt inverts meaning. It's very natural to have an "Invert shortcut" modifier, but it's not consistent for that modifier to be specific to the shortcut at hand. In Blender, it's usually Alt, but not always.

Tons of software allows Ctrl-Shift-Z as well as Ctrl-Y, because many people prefer the former.

If you don't like Blender's default keys, you can change them. What's the point in complaining about the default settings when it's configurable?

clearly you aren't reading blenders doc, you can't change it unless you code or buy the paid version. So that means:

- You are left with one useless button that is only for animation and it's function is to be a play button.

- useless button that is only in blender, moving the origin point

- a system to open, save, import files, not useful.

- a command to open brushes which isn't something you would use often and isn't needed fast.

4/10 useless, i would count the viewing numberpad but whatever. You call this great/better, it is a mockery of a tool, no wonder you blender users use keyboard.

In order:
Maya: for studios and lots of artists working in sinc on a single scene.
Max: army knife for solo animator/modelers, the choice of the 3D generalist.
Zbrush: organic 3D clay modeler, works together with Max or Maya.
Blender: a free, weaker version of Max. Doesn´t work with Zbrush.

He means Blender is not as thoroughly integrated with Zbrush like on Maya. If you want your Zbrush model in Blender you have to first export it into something that Blender can sanely import, which is currently .OBJ, which means you'll loose some information from Zbrush in the process because of how limited the OBJ format is.

What's Godawful about Max's UI?? I learned Maya first, but ended up liking Max because Maya's UI is convoluted.

I don't think there's a better UI for a 3D app that has the features 3DS Max does. Cinema 4D has a better (easier to understand) interface, but also has less features.

I assume you mean spaghetti code, let me put it this way, if I know the system well enough I likely make this as fast as someone who wants to box/sculpt it, then I can place it in the scene and see how it looks, if somethings out of place, I can change parameters on the fly faster than anyone could edit it to make it perfect, for this specific example, what if I wanted it to be smaller, maybe 4x5 sections, and then instead of being as tall as it is, make it 1.4th its hight, maybe the added nuts instead of being subtle are now a but more sharp and defined.

each decision like this would require a re model or extensive re work, while the node it's just a simple, at least if you know how, parameter adjustment.

depending on what you are doing it's better for iteration sake.

constant change isn't a factor, its once this is lets say in the characters hands, alot of personal projects or even client projects, if they don't have an artist to make it exactly as needed, once they see it or you are moving on from just placeholder things, may want to make it look a bit more realistic, it goes from a 10~ minute remake and hope they are happy, to a 1 minute setting tweak. and this isn't just chocolate, let's apply this to stairs, or railing, you may not have it exactly as wanted or looks correct out the gate, but a parameter tweek now makes it work.

what i'm saying is for things that aren't one offs and are procedural in nature, or able to be made procedurally, are almost always better to make with a node if you know what you are doing, for flexibility sake while not taking any more time if not being faster with nodes.

- Wings3D
- Houdini Apprentice (your stuff will get watermark has part of being free and you are not allow to sell any 3d models made under Houdini Apprentice).

MashMagic 3D may be the one you want since it offers more stuff than the other free choices,

On the paid 3D software:
- Silo 2022 $135 (currently on deal)
- AC3D $149
- Metasequoia 4; $45 (the one i use)

Everything else like the very popular paid 3d modeling software is over $1000 or under subscription, so don't buy those when there are better ones.

Metasequoia 4 is the cheapest in 3d modeling, it can do advanced modeling and it's very popular in Japan. The Metasequoia 4 EX cost $150 but offers unit display, Ambient occlusion (the way shadow works), Armature (use math to get perfect results on models), No limits on rendering and better import/export format like FBX or HDR.

You can test Metasequoia 4 before buying with no time limits but you cant export your models, a good way to learn everything.

- 3d printing is costly, you need to map out the size of the model to save on materials and other related problems. You can not do that with just a normal 3d software. This is why new software for such things are made, just like 3DCAD are not made for 3D character models.

- texture painting is not great as you think it is, the main problem is adding small details which is way cooler to see than some huge color boring thing.

- simulation is not needed in 3d modeling programs, you are better off buying other software like 'beaming' or tree creator to get that perfect feeling of physics.

- sculpting is another tool but does fit in 3d modeling. Still this is a case by case kind of thing that only business care. Also who says we can do sculpting in maya or other programs, blender is not the only one nor is it the only free one. It is not uncommon to see it be part of another software.

- Yes everyone hates $1k for a working software which is what companies want, a working software not a bug ridden piece of junk made by inexperienced people who are 20 years behind current 3d modeling trends.

- Blender requires other 3rd party systems because blender developers cant make anything useful without the community helping.

- No U, no one says anything bad about Maya UI, only blender gets this hate and only blender loyal fantic get angry about it.

- Blender has shown it sucks at everything, it sucks at even basic 3d modeling. This is why other 3d software exist, they are better, people know they are better and people move on from blender because it sucks.

you misunderstand blender ability to crate stuff, it is not a suite. The developers failed to make it better and fails to make VFX useful on itself.

A suite like one found in Autodesk Media & Entertainment Collection offers many working software that do the job. Blender does not do the job well, it lacks professional video editing that hobbyist buy in Magix, Blender fails at VFX because of zero to limit choices of works and Blender can not make games like Unity or similar software. Blender is not a suite, it is a 3d software made by old people who been asking money for 20 years, nothing else.

Sculpting in blender has a problem, that's the polygons it can handle, holes randomly appearing, random polygons going inward, random shape ruining your process of the model, User error because Blender did not warn said user, etc. We solved these problems years ago, yet for some crazy reason Blender developers refuse to fix these bugs. There are people on youtube from the old youtube era to current telling ways to fix these problems, yet current working software like the one i own had fix it. Blender needs to fix these problems.

You don't need those other expensive software, there are clearly alternatives, from free to paid that offer close to professional tools.

- Substance painter = Armorpaint
- Zbrush = Wings3D
- Houdini = The Forge or Kerkythea (I am assuming it's the rendering)
- After Effects = DaVinci Resolve or HitFilm, how have you not heard it

the list goes on but the point is clear that better software exist than blender awful "features". Also it's called the bridge, every real 3d modeling software and educational books calls it bridge because you are making a bridge.

Hasn't fixed any of the issues listed on its forum over 5 years ago. Industry standard at its finest.

>>cost $1000+ a year to use
maya costs $270 a year to use if you're a freelancer. If you work for a studio, they pay for it for you.

it's actually pretty good compare to ZBrushCore Mini that only exports in custom image and does not allow for commercial use. Since Blender sucks, Wings3D is clearly the better choice.

never said maya was great for high-poly retopo, only that retopo is part of the modern workflow. the point was detailed modeling work is done in zbrush now, including retopo work. if you're editing models, doing retopo on models with millions of polys in maya, you'll run into trouble, it's not a new problem. it's a problem with most 3d programs, and why zbrush is itself an indstry standard for what it does.
that being said, i've used maya's retopo tools quite extensively on models in the hundreds of thousands polycount, and while not being the fastest, or best, i've been able retopo many models without much problems. could just be my system or that i know how to manage maya well, being a long time maya td.

nobody retopos in zbrush; that's a fools errand.

That isn't the issue. You have to split up your retopo into separate parts eventually on Maya no matter what so the tool doesn't lag. God forbid you have to work with this tool on models with a lot of curvy surfaces..

LOL stop it nigger. Clearly you have never used Maya 2023 yet.

So now that that's out of the way please point out how dramatically different the quad draw tool has become in 2023 yet still cannot snap vertices to that of the live surface.

>on dense meshes
And that explains why workflow for even my colleagues is still the same because we're not seeing these supposed performance improvements on meshes that aren't dense. Good to know that overall the tool is still slow.

>grown ups are posting
Oh yeah is that why you try to type like some chuuni wannabe corny anime villain and post LOL like a teenage girl?

Even if it's just the creator messing up bones, the list of problems goes on and on.

Blender has a bunch of retarded UI that obfuscates everything about bones. It's a nightmare figuring out if your skeleton / animation is set up properly for game engine compared to Maya. That's even without the shit the auto rigging addons add to the mix.
