How do you guys making pic related(alpha textures for eyebrows and pube)?
I tried fiber shop and it did give me the good results, but I cant export it alpha map, not allowed in the free version I think

Plasticity is out of beta and is being shilled on the socials. Got me interested in trying out CAD concepting again. Anyone used the thing? Looks a little autismy than moi or fusion.
Not piratable yet, but the demo isn't too limited so i'll probably grab it later.

I want to create a 3d animation based off a picture of someone else's 3d text to make it look like it's being handwritten. I can already do this with typed text or text I I write myself but I want to do it from text from photos. Is there a way to do this in geometry nodes or otherwise?

In 2018, Andrew Price made predictions about how AI will change the industry.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Flg
Aside from pic related, Andrew made some other predictions:
>Procedural workflows will become standard
>Creative assistance from machines
Now that it's 2023, for those of you working in the 3D industry, has anything significant for you changed since 2018? Have you seen a cut in jobs or more use of AI and machine learning?

Ok fuck it, I'm making a thread, let's discuss this shit. Gamedev/character artist (hobbyist) reporting in.
It's been a few months now that I've been switching between Marvelous Designer/Clo3D and Zbrush trying to make nice looking (semi-stylized) clothes in these softwares but I can't reach the look I want to have on my characters. I'm particularly struggling on making a Gakuran (male studen japanese uniform).
With Zbrush:
> Clothes general shapes are off or very hard to get righ
> Looks too clayish
> Tedious as fuck
With MD/Clo3D
> Very little control on the style of the cloth
> Folds are generated "randomly" -> no control on the folds
> Shape depends on the character model not on the pattern of the clothing
In the end, I dislike both of them. Well I dislike both of them on their own. The most experienced of you are going to say "Well duh, you can't use MD or Zbrush alone for clothes, you make the base in MD and the details on Zbrush". But how do I cope with the ridiculous amount of MD/Clo3D "intermediate/advanced" tutorials?
So I'm asking here. How do you do it? Any tips to share ? Anything that changed your life in doing clothing? Should I use MD anyway?

I went bug hunting around the "Assign automatic from bones" function int Blender.
Top row is default, bottom row is patched.
I wanted to get rid of that defect (pinch) you can see on the inside of 90° bends specifically.
Pic related is what I've got so far. I'll add more details later.

Hey, I’m trying to find a download link/magnet for the groombear toolkit, but I can’t find anything on public sites, trackers or forums. Would anyone have a link if it can be pirated? New to Houdini, so I don’t know shit

All I want is to make an object always face the viewport view.
Basically this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzN
but object facing viewport view, not a "Camera" that you can add to the scene
I was trying Tracking Constraints but can't put the viewport view as a "Target"
Create a "Camera", check the "Align camera to view" box and look through it will not work for me

Does drawing 2D (grinding to get good skill) on paper with help you do 3d and im not just talking human anatomy but robots and buildings and everything else? I'm a hobbyist generalist, been doing this since 2011. I've been drawing here and there and buying drawing materials recently, but I find that I can't design (actually design) nearly as well as stable diffusion so what I do is just use SD for ref and then try to change the camera angle in 2D with drawing and then translate this into 3d later.
Is this about right? Will this help me do 3d? I find doing a lot of 3d stuff like sculpting, grooming, texturing, simulation, etc can be really really slow

Trying to reconstruct Captain Briggs model from Limbo Of The Lost
His head and hair uses Poser 4 assets as a base, but the rest I'm unsure of.
Would any 3D model sleuths here know which assets they came from? This game uses a ton of stolen content so it may even come from other games.

Please tell me where to find free motion capture files that I can retarget onto a maya skeleton. How can this work, for a noob. Apparently us wannabe riggers are not expected to "waste time" animating shit and are instead supposed to just rig rig rig.
