🧵 Is there any way to convert a .gmd file to anything blender can open?
Anonymous at Tue, 22 Nov 2022 07:55:29 UTC No. 926884
Im trying to 3d print a model from the game catherine full body. But the model is in the format .gmd there is also one thats .gmod and one thats .gfs
I cant find anyway to convert it to something usable.
Tried a script in 3dsmax specifically designed for that file type. But i think it’s outdated as it only gave me errors

🧵 How to practice arch viz
Anonymous at Mon, 21 Nov 2022 20:08:26 UTC No. 926835
For those who work in arch viz, how do you start? I want to make portfolio pieces to get an intership, but not quite sure where to start. Trying to make things from imagination just seems unproductive. I was thinking of re-creating good looking buildings in my town. Are there other options? How did you get your foot in the door?

>We’re excited to announce that Unreal Engine 5.1 is now available. With this release, we’ve built upon the groundbreaking feature set introduced in UE5, making it more robust, efficient, and versatile for creators across all industries. As part of this effort, we’ve been stress-testing the engine against different workflows, making it applicable to more sectors.
>We’ve laid the groundwork for the Lumen dynamic global illumination and reflections system, the Nanite virtualized micropolygon geometry system, and Virtual Shadow Maps (VSM) to support games and experiences running at 60 fps on next-gen consoles and capable PCs, enabling fast-paced competitive games and detailed simulations to run without latency. Lumen now supports the Two-Sided Foliage shading model, by gathering lighting from the backface and scattering it through the leaf, attenuated by the material's Subsurface Color.
>Meanwhile, Nanite has also been updated with a Programmable Rasterizer to allow for material-driven animations and deformations via World Position Offset, as well as opacity masks. This exciting development paves the way for artists to use Nanite to program specific objects’ behavior, for example Nanite-based foliage with leaves blowing in the wind.
>In this release, we’ve continued to enhance tools for building massive open worlds with additional functionality and improved workflows. World Partition now supports Large World Coordinates, enabling you to create massive open worlds without loss of precision.

I remember seeing a really interesting CGI animation which was this horror comedy of degenerates working in a diner at night talking about forming a band. Does any of you have it or know where to find it?

what is better for modeling?

Aloha! I just started a 1-year 3D course last week. I will be posting weekly updates on my progress.
This week we started with basic interface stuff in Maya. How to move around, how to rotate, layers, history, pivot point manipulation, focusing, adding base models, soft selections, difference between NURBS and polygons - all that basic stuff.
I decided to get a head start on the actual modelling part while applying the knowledge they taught us of how the interface functions. The course is pretty intensive, so I intend to learn as much as I can this year. I already had some experience with Maya, but I'm very rusty since it's been almost a decade since I last touched it.
Here are some models I made after fucking around with Maya after the lesson, yesterday. No reference images just yet.
🧵 Looking for a Megumi Kato card for Koikatsu
HikariLover2 at Sat, 19 Nov 2022 08:00:54 UTC No. 926512
Excuse me, maybe this is unexpected for most of you, but I have been looking everywere for HEN太's Megumi Kato card, since the distribution was suspended and it was the only decent-good looking model of her:
https://www.pixiv.net/artworks/9697
If someone is willing to help me, I would be very grateful, since is the only Koikatsu model whose desing style looks like her anime version from the Saekano/Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata anime TV series.
PS: And before you say it, yes; I asked in the Koikatsu general thread, but it wasn't very helpful. I just want the card that contains the model character data, so if some of you still have it, please tell me T_T

As a /3/d artist, what would be the easiest shippable game I could make as a solo dev? I can code/design, but my main strength is in visuals. Is there something I can make that's more fun than a walking sim?
I'm not a character artist so it can't be porn.

You heard me.
> Forgets the paths to your bakes/input maps each time you open a project. Every time.
> Forgets that you downloaded various surfaces and has to re-download them. If you're not part of Ebic Gaymes club, you are charged for this
> Can only rotate studio light around Z-axis
> Perpetually "beta"
> Apparently, if you use multiple texture sets, material ID masks no longer work properly (a mask applied to a folder will not affect the children inside of the folder)
> Duplicates project files upon upgrading
> Brush icons are so tiny you cannot feasibly use the selection interface
> "workarounds"
This software is made by stuttering, aspergic mongoloids
I've used this since it was a shitty photoshop plug-in and it hasn't gotten any better. Quixel has to be allocating the majority of their budget on laser-scanning rubber butt-plugs and 10 million different individual rocks and twigs.

Blender is a free and open-source 3D computer graphics software tool set used for creating animated films, visual effects, art, 3D-printed models, motion graphics, interactive 3D applications, virtual reality, and, formerly, video games. Blender's features include 3D modelling, UV mapping, texturing, digital drawing, raster graphics editing, rigging and skinning, fluid and smoke simulation, particle simulation, soft body simulation, sculpting, animation, match moving, rendering, motion graphics, video editing, and compositing.

This license grants people a number of freedoms:
You are free to use Blender, for any purpose
You are free to distribute Blender
You can study how Blender works and change it
You can distribute changed versions of Blender
