I tried to understand for a long time how to get a mesh from curves. I watched quite a few tuts but none of them were able to help me understanding how it works. But you really brightened up my day. Your explenation were absolutely clear, not too slow and not too fast. Thank you very much, I look forward to see your other videos.

Thank you so much! Loved the technique to fill the vertex with multiple faces!

Such a lifesaver, Thank you for the content!

Awesome video and great, concise explanation. Great job, mate - I'll check other videos on your channel.

Thank you for this tutorial. I actually needed to create faces on the two ends of a cylinder that I had created using two circles and bridge loops. All I needed to do was select the vertices at the end of each end of the tube and press F to create a cylinder!

10/10 best pringle tutorial. Thanks a ton man, this was just me watching one video I needed but I think I will definitely check out your other videos now.

Great tutorial, Kai and thank you for it, It noticed that if you take the upper 3 points of any curve (The ones with the highest positive values in Z axis for the front view or the highest positive values in the Y axis for the top view) this will give the best results (usually problem free) compared if you want to start from left or right ( depending on the original curve shape). I thought to bring your attention to this point. Thanks again

Instead of filling like that you can also use Face-->Grid Fill and then play with the offset if need be to line up the intersections accordingly. Way faster and 9/10 times gives good geo.

There is no mesh from curves option in blender , I’m using the latest down load of blender. Do you have to enable anything else. I’m basically trying to model a curved shape.

Thank you. *Real quick question.* At this point 1:44 when adding faces, is it possible quickly do "cross over" edges, so creating quads?

How to do the opposite? Mesh to curve? My problem is, I have hollow tubes of different shapes. I need a curve to run through the center of the hollow tubes, end to end . ..

At 0:41 you press F to create a face. I'm using a different keymap ( as coming from Maya ) , and F does something completely different. Could you share the Action that you do in order to create a curve between the first and final point and close the curve ?

@TutsByKai

4 жыл бұрын

F, by default is the button to create a face. Just press whatever you changed that key to :) If you can't remember, go to your settings, find the key you changed (remember the key you changed it to, so you can change it back) and just reset that key to it's default... so you can change it to another key. Does that make sense? :D

@gamedino6339

@@TutsByKai many thanks for the solution and the reply ! :) on the other hand, I don't think that is something I should do. The method I used was : search : "make face". I've been using the same method for a few days now. On another note : I sincerely believe that tutorials should explain where you can find the option in the UI, and be technically detailed and accurate. Unfortunately, instead, most of the Blender tutorials found on youtube start from the assumption that everyone uses the default blender keymap, and expects you to learn 100 keys so you can properly work in blender. When working with a team that uses multiple 3d programs, having a specific keyset for each program ( this includes blender ) is a bad idea. I'm definitely not against keyboard shortcuts, however I believe tutorials should present it differently. Sorry for the long message, Cheers ! :)

Is there any shortcuts for this?

hey i know this is much later but when i hit f my surface doesnt fill in? idk is it a keybind i have to put in myself?

Good advice but it doesn't work for complex shapes. What I found out is that if a bezier curve is imported as a shape with fill in .svg format rom external vector app (as opposed to curves created in Blender), geometry gets divided in quads right away as you turn curves into mesh, automatically!

Yeah. Only more basic shapes work properly. Wish it ALWAYS worked. That sounds pretty neat though! Thanks for sharing!

when I try to select 2 points and try to create a face it begins creating it outside of my mesh ? im stumped on what to do next

@TutsByKai

4 жыл бұрын

Hmmm. Outside, like, not inside the curve at all? That's extremely weird. Try it with another curve, see if the same thing happens o.o It's pretty much impossible for a face to be created outside of your mesh, since the face needs vertices, and isn't gonna just make new ones out of nothing, so something really weird is going on :| Let me know :)
