It’s so amazing seeing how far all this has come, I was in school in 89 and just one image was a process now all is in real time

I use this workflow with Fusion360,. Export as a low detail obj, duplicate the mesh and create a high poly to use as a baking mesh. The low is triangulated, but that does not matter for hard surface. It's a very fast workflow as no retopo is needed and you get a very accurate mesh with the lowest vert count for that shape.

The only thing that made me switch (for the little projects i do from time to time), was the crashes when trying to make a lot of holes, for design and functional porpuses. Also the way you can make a cube from no where, without the need to make a plane, ohh, soo much time wasted xD. Hope to get something similar, in blender. Plasticity looks good, but it's a "new" workflow for me, and it's also not free, which is why Blender is better for me. If i want to sell things, i don't have to worry about Autodesk complaining xD

NURBS is not for pure visual work. It's power lies in the ability to produce model that can be manufactured. In the case of polygons, they are not mass manufacturable due to the inaccuracy. Rhino, Alias, Solidworks, and main CAD packages all support NURBS. Hence Plasticity is not similar to tools such as Blender as the output is not the same.

Its amazing, to achive the same result in blender you are going to spend x3 more time .

For all those claiming that Blender is Free, yes you're right. But don't forget there's a foundation behind without unlimited funds, have you ever donated some money just 1 dollar cause all those fantastic persons don't live on fresh air. I've been using Blender since the beginning when so many people were criticising it and even the concept to be open source. So finally, question yourself should i always take without giving just a little something to talented developers. Plasticity is not free yes, but the developer isn't part of a foundation, that's why you have a indie license at 99 bucks for example. I'm not promoting exclusively Plasticity but everything isn't all about money or to be free. To be fair, having sense guys and some empathy that's the key.

Blender is free and open source. What plasticity is doing is it's allowing people to use it for free, report bugs and test the software, and then, when it's been improved by, essentially, free testers and code reviewers, they are planning to make a move to a paid model (and, AFAIK, a closed source model too? or would the codebase still be available and updated for those who are willing to assemble it themselves?), probably even making top development contributors to pay up. Which, IMO, is a dick move, it's not about the actual amount of money you pay, it's the thought that counts. And yeah, I bought tons of stuff on blender market with the heart thing, and I donated. What's your point? I'm sticking to Blender's workflows, especially considering how MeshMachine and HardOps don't feel like actual polymodelling at all, and, since I'm doing the animation and post in Blender as well, I am saving time and effort on import/export.

Never take expert opinions for granted. Third, this video from start to finish made it sound very clear that Plasticity is a new and separate application from Blender, which would still warrant a comprehensive breakdown and comparison of the tools from experienced and insightful users. I'd never even heard of Plasticity until this video, which is the point of these kinds of videos, to introduce people to new things. This is an opportunity for content creators to make genuinely useful and insightful content that people would actually be interested in (not to say this video wasn't insightful or interesting). While I understand that many different tools cater to different specialties, it's still a good idea to get insight from others and can be an important part of doing effective research. For example, I understand that even though applications like Blender, Maya, Houdini, ZBrush, and many others have a lot of similar capabilities, you would most likely use one of the other for very specific purposes. ZBrush has capabilities to do animation for example, but I'd never dream of using it over something like Blender or even Unreal Engine.

But who knows, maybe they'll give more attention to NURBS. "Gives better results? Gives good topology? For Rendering yes, but for game asset you need to fix the topology and shading issues." Yep. gives better reuslts with same booleans. While actually keeping geometry kinda lightweight. Or something like this. And it's exactly, what you're saying.

true, but sometimes you just need a break from polygon modeling

I started out with Blender and learned to make hardsurface assets for games and got fucking sick of dealing with shit topology issues that Blender gives you. The fact that you need to use weird gimiks to work around those topology issues should tell you that Blender isn't great for that use (ie. Meshmachine, Hardops, Machinetools, and other topology related plugins only exist to fix Blenders shit topology issues). For example: Go into Blender, and make 2 cylinders perpendicular to eachother and intersect to form a "+" shape. Then subtract the horizontal cylinder from the other one to make a hole in the center. Make sure the mesh is shaded smooth > autosmooth and use a reflective matcap. Look at the shading issues and look at the verticies. Now try beveling the edges of the hole. See how that works out. Now do the same in a CAD program like Plasticity or Moi3d. Zero issues, you can even import it into Blender and it will look perfect. CAD programs handle topology way better, they're faster to use, they deal with bevels and booleans better, and they allow you to spend less time fixing bullshit topology issues and more time actually modelling. I still love Blender for all it's tools, but when it comes to hardsurface modelling, fuck Blender. I'd suggest trying a free trial of a CAD software (Plasticity is good) and see how it compares to modeling in Blender. Also, all software is free if you know where to look.
