🧵 Help tiling my procedural texture in blender please?
Anonymous at Sun, 18 Jun 2023 16:29:11 UTC No. 948745
Hi all, I'd like to have my texture tile procedurally in both x and y axis.
The worn part of this texture makes it seamless so I tried to come up with a way to solve this.
At first, I tried to have a SQUARE-ish white mask around the four cornes to cut off the seamless worn part but it worked for the horizontal seam but not for the vertical seam since the worn out part looks like it got erased in a straight line at the top and bottom.
I am now trying to use another musgrave texture to someone counter the worn part in both top and bottom areas but I'm having no luck with that.
Can you guys help me figure out a way to mask out the top and bottom with more procedural noise?

🗑️ 🧵 Any Blender advice for day 1 beginners?

Hey dudes, I'm a middle aged guy on day 1 of learning Blender. Due to an illness, I have all the time in the world. Do you have any tips on where to start, such as good video lessons, guides, or tips to avoid pitfalls? My aim is to make assets for a game using Unreal 5. With any luck, I'll finish it before I die. Thanks for reading.

How do you decide to split up your model? Is there a general guideline? I'm trying to make a gator-man but I'm having some issues doing his back and tail. I'm not sure it's because I should be splitting the scales on his back on a separate subtool or if I should just get good and deal with it.
I'm asking cause I saw some artists split up some detail on separate subtools. Would've posted in the sculpting general but it seems dead. Anyway what do you guys do? What should I do?

🧵 Help to extract the files of the models of the roblox game The Fairy Guardians
Marinkitagawa026 at Fri, 16 Jun 2023 06:24:03 UTC No. 948517
Sorry to bother but I saw some people here usually port 3d models and I feel bad asking but is very important to me because is related to one of my favourite games of all time, The Fairy Guardians which is related to one of my favourite series that I used to watch in my childhood, Winx Club and said game has some of the best well made models related to said series
It was closed during a time before I got the chance but the creator says that the game will be open only for three days (june 18, june 19 and june 20) before being permanently closed forever https://twitter.com/mattcrystal3/st
I ask here because I lack of the ability to do it and many of you have a lot of experience when it comes to 3D models so it would be fine if someone could extract the models files of the main characters before is closed forever I don't care in what format I just want the models files so people like me would have the chance to export them to 3d programs such as mmd, xps, blender...
Here's some screenshots about what the models look like
https://sta.sh/21a6ycmdfgxb
I'm mainly interested in:
-Bloom (casual outfit, charmix fairy form, enchantix fairy form and tynix fairy form)
-Stella (casual outfit, charmix fairy form and enchantix fairy form)
-Flora (casual outfit, charmix fairy form and enchantix fairy form)
-Tecna (enchantix fairy form)
-Musa (casual outfit and enchantix fairy form)
-Aisha (casual outfit and enchantix fairy form)
-Valtor
-The Trix (Icy, Stormy and Darcy)
Link of game: https://www.roblox.com/games/106334
I promise you I won't bother here anymore after thid, but please just this time, I'm begging all of you... T_T

So I've imported these XPS models into blender and they're behaving funny.
Rigging is all fine, they render normally in eeevee and before rendering in cycles they look fine.
But then when I render this happens.
Whats going on here?

How can you make this video of miku vfx and motion graphics in blender?
I see shit like in 3:21 where is like a magical girl transformation and like she instantiate some mesh change in the animation.
Like how do you do that?
Or is the VFX here, like composite shit from some after effects clip and later composited in Nuke or some shit like that?
Because 100% sure this shit would be extremelly cumbersome to do in vanilla blender and is more some Maya or softimage or other package 3D animation, and then some vfx shit on like after effects and then composited on nuke.
But I don't want to like super relly on expensive tools and my end goal is just do that shit on some game engine like godot.
So I can't relly on like animation tools completely.

Be honest, what type of shit can't be functionally made to a lever where you can sell the product if you use blender and start getting more and more addons.
Be honest, in a practical sense for like a random 3D fag here.
Not some billion dollar studio with like 500 employees and making a 300 billion usd disney movie.
No.
A random 3D fag that is not in some AAAAA massive studio with investors from black rock.
No, I mean some mom and pop store, a 3D noob on twitter and some smaller studio in like SEA or brazil making something for their local TV, or some advertisement in like eastern europe or like some science fag in some shit like NASA.

🧵 Just found an old usb.
the chair nerd at Wed, 14 Jun 2023 02:52:38 UTC No. 948293
So I just found and old usb that contains a series of images that I thought were gone for good.
Since I know some of you guys enjoy vintage renders I'm gonna go ahead and dump some of them. A big chunk was made in Discreet 3ds max 5 and 6 back in 2002-2003 when I was a little shit. Now I am a huge piece of shit. I hope you enjoy them as much as 12 year old me was proud of them.
I specifically remember that my first 3d rendering ever was a wireframe of an airplane from the 3ds max plane tutorial that came with the cd. That is far gone because I used to save my my projects on cd's.
But picrel may be 1 or two weeks in when I was just playing around with the software, learning empirically and not knowing that I could make bigger images that the default 640px x 480px. All the engine trusts were made in an old corel draw that was already installed in the family computer.
So please enjoy.

/sci/-here, sick of seeing morons teach physics wrong on youtube
Do any of your 3d packages allow for complex mathematical functions, such to simulate shit?
Non-euclidean geometry? Graphing functions, fractals, etc.
How powerful are the spline tools?
I can code it raw, but the aesthetics are limited. If I could sim shit well enough for a vid in a 3d program, I can just do the whole damn video in the same software.
