Blender. How to add detail for 3d printing without trying very hard

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

This video shows how to use the displacement modifier to add exciting geometry to your model without much effort. The resulting model and its textures will be 3dprintable.
Apologies for the dog with long nails walking about from time to time in this video :)

    Just a heads up, the reason you choose Z for direction is in the name of the texture file you are using. You need the height map information, that information is only applied in the Z direction in this case. Now if you was doing it on a side of the model your height would be in the direction of the X or Y, depending on the direction the face is. Hope that helps you understand why you chose Z in this case...;)

There are some supporting edge loops on the edges to ensure the sub division surface modifier doesn't turn it into a ball :)

    You are right, it doesn't show up does it. Press Tab to toggle between edit and object mode but make sure your mouse is on the main viewport window (the one that your model is displayed in) when you do. Alternatively you can select the drop down box top left of screen just under the "Edit" and "Render" menu items that probably says "Object mode" at the moment and select edit mode from there.

    Tying this in with creating UV maps would be helpful. All I'm trying to do is get around prusaslicers fuzzy skin limitations and model some rough texture to improve grip. Blender is so unintuitive it has been 4 hours of frustration just trying to get some surface texture to shrink-wrap itself around my part and not be some plain project turd. I had it working once - with UV maps - but then I did something and it all broke and I haven't been able to get it working again :( I'm also struggling with the variable poly density of my model - flat surfaces have very few vertices for the displacement map to work with and subdividing "enough" is massive overkill for any curved surfaces.

Have you considered using a texture as a brush and just painting it on in sculpt?

    Not for 3d printing. The shade smooth option makes your model look smooth on the screen and in any renders you do but it does not smooth the model itself. So, if you export your model and print it it will look like you have the "shade flat" option set anyway. So, for 3d printing always have shade flat and not shade smooth.

    How complex do the models need to be? I just want to create a simple wall and add texture but when I try to apply this tutorial, the model becomes a flat oval and no texture can be applied without it looking crazy. And no amount of decreasing the strength makes it look good.

  • @notverygoodguy

    @notverygoodguy

    Жыл бұрын

    It doesn't need to be complex, a wall would be fine, but it does need to have enough geometry. If you select the "Simple" option in the subdivision surface modifier you should get plenty of geometry without it turning your wall into an oval :) I don't do this in the video because you might notice I have added edge loops close to the straight edges of the model which can also preserve the shape of the model when using the subdivision surface modifier. By the way, if your wall has no thickness, this displacement method might not give you what you want so you might need to add a solidify modifier before the displacement but after the subdivision. I hope this helps but let me know if you have any further issues. Good luck.

    Any printer will do it if you cut your model into smaller parts and fix them together afterwards. This is probably a good way to do it anyway because if you have a failure near the end of a 4ft print you will have wasted a LOT of filament. That said, if you really want to print something that big as one part, the only remotely reasonably priced printer that can do that is the Creality CR-30 but it can only do that size on one axis. www.creality3dofficial.com/products/cr-30-infinite-z-belt-3d-printer

    actually, maybe you can try a different method because this will cause the texture to look streaky in most cases. I worked al long time to find how to get rid of this and have the texture lay evenly on the surface. better to select the vertex groups, use UV unwrap, bring in your same texture to the UV, then do the displace mod with the texture and vertex group as you did but then select direction from UV and the texture will lay evenly on the surface.

    Sadly not. It would be very hard to do. It would need to guess which orientation you wanted to print in for a start. But what would it do with a large over hang such as an arm straight out at 90 degrees? The closest I could think of would be to select all the edges that you are concerned about and bevel them with ctrl b and mouse scroll wheel. The 3dprint add on that comes with blender can attempt to identify the problem areas at least.

    You definitely need the geometry if you plan to 3d print the result. I believe it gives a suggestion in the video. Create a subdivision surface modifier and set it to "Simple". This will create more vertices for you but retain the shape. If you are not interested in 3d printing this then it is probably not the best solution. You can bake detailed textures onto a low res model if you just want to only render stuff but that's a completely different video :) Hope this works out for you.

    This could be just a case of getting the strength of the displacement correct. It is a very small step between looking right to looking awful. Holding shift as you adjust the strength can help. If not, provide a link to a blend file you have with the texture (remember to "File->External Data->Pack Resources" first to add the texture image to your blend file) and I can take a look at it if you like.

    When you export to stl for printing everything gets converted to triangles anyway so no, it doesn't matter. The model does have to be manifold and inverted faces, overlapping and other broken meshes can cause a problem.

    I am glad it was useful for you. My next video will be about the different ways for creating clothes on human models with a view to 3d printing them though will not be out until after the new year. The solidify modifier should not remove detail though it can be a bit difficult to control what it does sometimes. It has lots of options that might help you though without seeing why you lose detail with it, it is difficult to offer a recommendation. If you can find a way to provide a .blend file I could try and have a look at it. I don't cover DAZ for making models in this channel even though it IS pretty good mostly because its licensing restrictions for 3d printing are a bit over the top in my view. Maybe you might consider an alternative.

It does print fine.. however, parts of the clothes are very thin and broke, and i got no idea (yet) how to increase the inside of boots i.e., to have them merge and not ending up with feets printed inside the boots, leaving behind resin traps. -because expanding along the normals does drag one side in the other out - and it might be doable by splitting it up in all tiny parts. and i dit with the 600+ hair-items in the later given example. as i know no other way to communicate with a youtuber but the comment section ( https REMOVE THIS ://cults3d.

    @@amimeebee Wow! You put a ton of work into getting that printable!! The hair alone is a masterpiece of patience! I can't imagine the time it took to support this :) There isn't much that can be done with the stl file without the original but I think you have found a problem that everybody finds when trying to adapt things made for rendering into something that can be printed but most don't have your patience. You already have your solution though too. It is making every individual item thick enough to print and have access for support. And make adjustments. For example the outer skirt that nearly sits on the inner skirt should really be actually be joined to it much like the corset is. It won't make any difference to the model given the size you are likely printing at but would solve all sorts of problems. I see your problem with the boots and the only solution I can see is to actually make the boots solid a little way inside. Ideally you would boolean them with the leg too. Hair usually has to be just a few objects and people usually sculpt hair or create a few curves which are then converted to mesh and merged. Controlling the solidify modifier when you have small details can be difficult but you can restrict the effect of it in parts of your model by using vertex groups and adjusting the factor slider but ultimately, when creating detailed clothing you should be making it thick enough before you add details like folds and creases. I do admire what you have done here because I can see the effort involved and you have apparently been successful. I will try and do a video of handling difficult issues with the solidify modifier in the not too distant future.

Try it just using the default cube. In edit mode select everything if it isn't all ready select and subdivide it to ten (you can set how many it does in the little menu thing that pops up bottom left). Then do it again but subdivide maybe to 2 or 3. Then apply a texture that has a lot of detail like the stones I used in the video. If you are getting huge valleys and peaks try adjusting the strength slowly by holding down the SHIFT button while you drag your mouse over the value. The fact that you do get this problem does suggest its working. If all else fails see if you can find a way to post a link to your blend file, I'd be interested to see what is going on.

    The double lines are there to constrain the subdivision surface modifier. Without these the flat faces would turn into curves when using it. You can achieve the same using "mark sharp" on the edges but the "double lines" is more reliable. There are no add-ons used in this video, it is stock standard Blender. The only non-standard setting I have is that I always have "face orientation" set to on but that shouldn't make a difference here. Perhaps you could explain where it isn't working for you. Maybe I can help.
