Remesh has always been one of my favorite modifiers. Essentailly as it was described to me at first from someone on CGCookie, is that it sprays a weblike mesh from all directions in a almost spiderman like fashion to wrap around your current mesh. The placement of the webs becomes the new topology. I also like it for it's blocks mode which will convert your mesh into a 8-bit voxel, minecrafty, sort of look.

I have this "problem" since I started with blender.I did follow your tutorial with a Japanese letter svg import, and it worked great. Blender teamwork is priceless, thank you very much for share!

Oh my gosh, THANK YOU! I have been trying to understand how to fix this but being such a n00b with 3D and Blender, I couldn't work it out. Button bashing was not working. Was literally about to model everything from scratch uggggh. You are a legend and I REALLY appreciate you right now.

Thank you! I watched so many text tutorials, and none of them covered remesh. This was exactly what I needed.

I have watched a few videos on doing this and yours is by far the best in both content and method. Saved me a ton of time !

Thank you! I just started Blender and it just hits me that investing in a Good Topology is a really good idea and a time saver

I have been two hours wasting time following another tutorial, and yours fixed my problem in a minute

This might help a noob (like me), if you apply remesh before applying Solidifying, it will vanish. So, apply solidify first. Great video Ducky!

I love you! there´s so many tutorials of 25 minutes with other ways... this is so direct.

Thankyou so much, 3 years later and this was exactly what I have been searching for text to mesh.

Thank u! That's my main concern with type in 3D, always a horrible topology. Thanks for this useful tip!

I really wish if I had come across this video in 2016 (although the video is from 2018) so simple yet so useful!!!

I stumbled upon this video looking for something else but it was something I needed to know. I have a project to redo!!! Thank you so much.

Most beautiful topology I've ever seen on text!!

Thank you so much ! I actually abandoned a project because I just could't get around the horrible typology but now I picked i back up :)

Thank u man, u save my nervous system 2 days i was looking for ur video, thank u again

FINNALY!!! Now i can use Blender for my project. I was using Photoshop for my letterings with great result yes but blender opens more opportunities to work with. Thank you

God bless you Ducky !!! Almost gave up on my project

thank you so much! this is the easiest explanation i found on this so far!

I was looking for a completely different video, but I'm so glad I accidentally found this.

Wish I knew that before! Thank you for this very useful tip.

Extremely helpful and direct. Thank you very much!

Ducky you're the man! Thank you !

Haha dude I love you, so many little things like this frustrate the crap out of newbies.

Simple and objective! It helped a lot! Thank you for that!

Thanks for another great tutorial man! i'm looking for a way to properly map extruded text in Blender. I'd love to see a tutorial on this. This remapping does seem to be very helpful

Many thanks, I was struggling to get anything useful out of the text function!

You are the man! Thank you once again as always!

thank you very much Ducky3D. very helpful

thanks so much, this will really help with some fast typography work!

this video is a lifesaver, couldnt figure out how to bevel text for a 3d print STL, vertices were horrific

Thanks for this video. try add decimate modifier in bottom.stack if you wanna getting less polygon for text's front face

I needed this! Thanks very much :-)

You are a life saver, thank you so much!

Dude, I'm glad that found it. Thank you very much!

Extremely useful. Thanks!

Thank you so much that was really helpful.

Awesome tutorial. Thanks a lot!

Thanks Dude Helped Alot

This is exactly what I have been looking for and you explained it perfectly - much appreciated!

Great tip!! Tks a lot! Greetings from Brazil!!

Thank you! Saved my time! :D

thanks so much i really struggled with this!

works like a charm even in blender 3.4 !

Thank you so, I've learnt something valuable

To see the wireframe of this modifier you can actually just hit the wireframe render view in the top right next to solid and material render.

Very cool, thank you man

Friend you saved me, great hint !

Your technique isn't working for me. I have to turn the octree depth to too high of a value in order for the text to be complete again but at that depth the geometry becomes too dense. And at an octree depth of 7, my mesh is still in pieces.

thank goodness i have been working on a intro for a while now and idk how i made my text to be so solid perfect 3 months ago :P

To view what is happening with the mesh (object mode) when you using modifiers. just go wireframe

0:40 You shouldn't have to retopologize for taking the easy route. It's ok.

amazing! so many thank you's!!!

My tip after experimenting a short while is to use "sharp" rather than blocks, smooth or voxel in the remesh mode.

Most of the time you don't need to convert the text to a mesh, just change the extrude property on the text geometry and use the remesh modifier, IMHO you get better results and you can change the text if you want.

And 4 years later... thanks for this tip! Using this, I still achieved beautiful looking text while keeping it as text, very helpful when you aren't ready to commit text to mesh yet! And if you are using weird fonts, playing with the remesh settings helps to find what works for that font type. Thanks again!

This is 4 years after you published that video, for which I am very grateful! Now, in 3.6, when trying to do to the text what you describe, I am of course facing a bit of a change here. At 1:31, where you change the Viewport Display to wireframe, you also activate a "All Edges" option. This option is no longer available in Blender 3.6. Or do I have to activate a plugin?

Thanks, that's what I'm looking for~

Finally a great tutorial with this theme, after all this crap tutorials i watched here on youtube.

great video!!!

Thank you for sharing.

GREAT ONE BRO

You're also can use Decimate modifier to do it. Select text - Add modifier - Decimate - Planar - Limit angle at 5° is enough, but you can adjust limit angle for get different result.

short and very useful

wooow that is easy man. thank for sharing.

still works in blender 3.5 , but you need to switch remesh into "sharp" from the remesh modifier tabs since by default it's on "voxel"

Thank You!

Is there a way to do this with typographic logo's too? I would figure it works the same since it's an svg converted to a mesh but it doesn't respond to it

Yeah, it's helpful, thanks

You can go into edit mode and use limited dissolve option if you want it cleaner and have no problem with ngons

lost protonbender That’s not the point of the tutorial, the point of the tutorial is to add even topology on text so you can do things like sculpt or displace it well

Thank you!!

seems to screw up text with a beveled edge?

Genius I've been trying to figure out how to remesh the text...with Quad Remesher I've been needing like 200,000 quads to make a text that looks as good as the original 😀'thanks!

THANK YOUUUU

Best one yet. Does this work for imported SVGs as well?

Tnx very much!

nice

thank you

Nate: i'm trying to chisle letters into a stone slab. BUT I want the sides of each letter to be "chiseled" (not vertical), so that there's a vee where the font sides meet. IOW each letter front face is normal, tapering to a vee shape on back face. Any ideas? Thanks for your work. Alan

@pheeeshy

4 жыл бұрын

Multiple ways of doing this. Add a bevel to the back side and use a boolean to cut it into the slab. Or you could do it in edit mode by adding a loop cut and pulling it out then use a boolean. Be careful with booleans though because they create ngons

great tip

Thanks

Great

Tnx

There is a airframe mode in blender, just in case you hadn't noticed..

tyha,k you very much!!!!

For some reason, it isn't working for me. I have the newest version. It is different from the version in your video.

very good

Attempting to "Apply" these modifiers yields "Cannot apply modifier for this object type". Any fix?
