There are definitely two main types of Blender KZreadrs, super fast people who treat all viewers like they are experts and those that structure the videos as though viewers don’t know what Blender even is. It’s annoying either way but pretty hard for content creators to avoid both

@@GreatOutdoors1 I think the issue is more saying two or three word sentences comprised of blender specific terminology that doesn’t really explain anything to non experts, rather than the actual speed of speech. If I tell someone I don’t know what multilevel splattering is and they just repeat the words slower that’s nothing

Open image denoise, with the gpu is huge for me. I run a Rex 4060 with an old i7 4790. I actually have to increase my passes higher than necessary in order to give my cpu time to cool down from the denoising.
Noice all around!

what do you mean you have to shade smooth now using modifiers? how is this better? or is it just an alternative way to smooth?
I’m actually getting ready to start a KZread channel myself that is a documentary that goes behind the scenes showcasing my process behind the scenes, workflow, and everything I’m pouring into this passion project.
Hello! I'm looking forward to your movie!! I have a question about bokeh, do you do the blur in camera or through compositing? When I render defocus, I have too much noise appearing on denoise. can this be fixed somehow?

Could you please clarify if it's feasible to create a 3D model that appears 2D in Grease Pencil animation? I'm uncertain about character creation. If I opt for tracing or drawing each character pose, how should I handle shading and texturing? Redoing shading for each pose seems time-consuming. Can you provide guidance on a more efficient process? Your help would be greatly appreciated.
WATERMELON GIRL LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
nice update
thats all really great but how you get such sharp and clear in Render
Waiting for texture paint layers =) Literally the only thing keeping me using Substance Painter. I know there's workarounds for that, but when you want a ton of layers it gets very messy.
yea, split node!
Wow !!!
Your videos are great ! , can i be able to a professional in modelling and animation because i hear that people only be good at one thing only in 3d
There seems to be a big blender artist thread about the smoothing approach. Seems it kinda brakes certain workflow with object instancing. Also wonder why it now needs to be a modifier
@joos3D
2 ай бұрын
Extremely unfortunate change to remove the old functionality instead of adding the modifier as an option. Kinda catastrophic for some workflows, particularly for games. The new right click option is really not a good substitute as it's destructive and overrides manually placed sharp edges and has to be applied whenever any changes are made.
@RomboutVersluijs
2 ай бұрын
@@joos3D I was trying to read that forum post, it's super super long so didn't go into that rabbit Hole yet. Also have not tested it. Makes me wonder why they did not ad an option to use the modifier but also keep manual changes to sharp edges. Am I correct by thinking this modifier is basically a geometry nodes setup?
@joos3D
2 ай бұрын
@@RomboutVersluijs Sorry I wasn't clear. You should be able to use the modifier and keep manually placed sharp edges. But If you apply modifiers you'll get sharp edges based on the angle, so you can no longer adjust the angle while keeping just your manual sharp edges separately. There are obviously more issues which is why there's a 560 comment thread. I could see addons like HardOps working around the changes by not applying the modifier so maybe it's not a hopeless situation, but it does kinda mess up older projects.
I dont understand why they remove the basic autosmooth to put it in a modifier, its so annoyiiing, especially when you have multiple modifiers on one object , and its slower to add auto smooth now; the only good thing i can think of is that you can now have auto smooth on curve objects, but i already did a GN modifier for that

No Eevee Next? I'll wait for that version then. All the changes sound good, but I'm too novice to make good use of those. Having ray tracing in an engine that works on frames per second instead of seconds/minutes per frame is my big wish. And maybe realtime raytracing in the viewport preview? Wouldn't mind being able to pan around without a blurry vision!
watermelon girl is so cute definitely gonna watch

For everyone wondering how "EULER" is pronounced. The "eu" is pronounced as "oi" like in "noise". So, like "Oi-ler"
what blender theme is that? default?
Does anyone have a link to find 4.0? on the official site it is always 4.1 that launches when I try to download 4.0. It's because of the modification of the smouth, before you could obtain a 100% smouth in one click, this no longer works.
ALREADY?!
I wonder if anyone in the Blender dev team is considering adding dynamic radial menus like Maya. I mean I get that people are used to all the hotkeys, but they just seem like bad hotkeys to me as a Maya user 😅
when it will get released? i can still see 4.0 on download section
