The curve based pipe is probably actually better done with a simple geometry setup: Convert Mesh To Curve -> Curve modifier Then, in Edit Mode, you always work with a mesh, but it gets converted into a curve as needed.

Great tips! I hope to do some camera tracking soon. Trivial note about the uvw/xyz thing. the uv coordinates indicate you're dealing with a 2D surface or image (the w is for rotation), while xyz are spatial coordinates. Since the objects intersect at 2d mesh, uv space is used.

@digitalslacker9206

And to undermine what I just wrote, lol, uvw are sometimes used as alternatives for xyz, to distinguish that space from the usual global or local space, which is probably what is going on here.

Some very cool tips, except for that last one. Booleans are really easy to use, but they usually make a mess of your topology, which is a problem if you want to use subdivision surfaces or shade smooth or... basically anything for rendering...

Booleans almost always require cleanup for a good topo workflow, that's true! But they're still a great way to create intricate shapes easily!

11:50 You can also get a vertex by spawning a cube in and pressing m+1 which merges all the verts together into the center of the object, to get the vert to the center of the project press shift c (aligning the cursor to the center of the project, it wont do anything if its already at the center) then shift s whale selecting the vert and selecting [Selection to cursor] (aka the top one).

A focal length of 26mm on a APS-C (cropped) sensor camera, such as a Sony ILCE-6400, is not that same as a 26mm focal length in a traditional full frame 35mm film camera. Blender assumes a full frame sensor. Focal length is sensor size dependent and Blender, like most software, default to full frame (36mm x 24mm sensor area). To be accurate, in the camera settings in Blender, you would need to set the 'size' to 23.6mm (sensor width of a Sony APS-C) instead of the default 36mm. It doesn't make a noticeable difference in your example, but in different or more complex scenes it might.

@KaizenTutorials

2 ай бұрын

You're 100% right and I never really thought about that. Great info and tip, thanks!

Love these kind of videos! Very informative, and the comments are yet another layer of treasure to unearth! Regarding the lattice setup, there is a quicker way! Once you have the lattice in position with the high res mesh you wish to deform, start by selecting the mesh, then Shift click the lattice. Then press Ctrl + P (to bring up the Set Parent To popup), and choose Lattice Deform. Voila! This automatically adds the lattice modifier to the mesh and you are ready to go from there (saving you a few extra steps in the process)! Regarding curves and beveling points, no need to convert to mesh to bevel corner verts.... As a curve, go into vertex mode and select the corner vertices you wish to bevel, press N to bring up the right-hand side viewport tabs, click on the Edit tab, and from within the Curve Edit panel, there is a fillet/chamfer button. Click this and play with the Radius and Round values from the Bezier Points Fillet popup in the lower left hand corner of the viewport (here you can also toggle between Round or Chamfer)! 🗿

15:55 I think the fastest stairs, with the most versatility to adjust to the constraints of the scene, is add plane>rotate x90>delete bottom and a side edge>add array mod 1 or -1 on x or y, 1 on z, apply mod, merge by distance, extrude the top stair down vertex and bottom stair vertex across using snapping to make a perfect 90 angle, join them, fill the face, extrude the face.

There's a third and a fourth method to create pipes. Third would be using the skin modifier with the single vertex extrusion, this way you don't need to convert to curves back and forth, you can control the resolution with a subdiv and you can specify the thickness of each vertex inside the transform menu (N key) in edit mode, this way you have a cool benefit that is you can also branch a vertex and create Y connections on your pipes. Fourth would be doing your method but using geometry nodes to convert to and from curves.

@KaizenTutorials

I use the noise to create a more random pattern. By then using the vector math we can create a more random pattern and also it works on any surface, instead of the wave texture which you need to specify an axis for.
