Blender should have the Boolean function like this. I’ve always dreamed of a modeling software like that, so cool.

7:07 dat sonic caught me off-guard 🤣

I just fell in love with gooping. Now i want to goop everything

Yeah, In Blender it's simply: SHIFT+A > Metaball, for more control : Edit Mode, Properties Panel > Active Element > Negative (+radius, stiffness, etc ...) on each mesh composing the Metaball compound

Metaballs are similar, yeah, but for noobs, the amount of variables you can add in Womp in a snap is honestly pretty good. In literally a click you can add metallic, plastic or even glassy textures of varying colors, another click changes the world hdri. Joining shapes together to make more complex shapes is really intuitive, so even kids can come up with full color sculpts pretty quickly. Think about the amount of learning you'd have to put in on Blender to do something similar. Don't get me wrong - I love Blender - Womp has some pretty massive and obvious limitations, but I think it's a nice attempt at making 3D more accessible to everyone.

@@thejagman22 I agree with your point. We need more tools like this. Especially for kids. I'm not a Blender-only guy. I learned it but I enjoy other tools :)

0:29 you can usually remove any unwanted ui element with most adblockers

I love your channel because it has shown me some great tools

Thank you for letting us know about all these software, maybe we won't need them now, but maybe in the future we could use them.😀

That's a really interesting approach to modelling, love the goopiness! I guess I'm always concerned how long these tools last and if they remain supported/free, but anyway it looks promising.

I might have got lucky but I created a shape with a few cubes and a sphere. Then I exported to obj and imported all the files in the zip directly into unity urp testing project and it actually looks nice. Usually these kinda things either get screwed up on import or materials don't show up etc.. at least for me.

I do wish more 3D modeling softwares had goop in them...

Pretty sure blender has something like that

My first experience with rendering packages was also based on bolean modelling Real3D on the Amiga

It's like tinkercad on steroids!!! I'm going to give this a shot, I'm designing a Slingshot for yard plinking.

On browser based programs like this, be sure to save often!!

Again a cool app I just can't use if my internet provider has problems. Guys what i wrong with you all and those useless browser apps?

Blender has the functionality, but the UX is a mess, because it's a mishmash of object and edit mode where you have to select the object, then select an (unnamed) metaball as if it were a poly. When you get the concept, you can work with it, but it doesn't put everything in the outline like this.

lol why bother making a browser-based tool if it requires you to download a specific browser?

Normally w/r/t compute-heavy graphics stuff it's because Chrome currently has better browser support for some worker thread stuff (some key JS APIs aren't fully implemented or are behind a flag on Firefox for example, eg OffscreenCanvas)

What kinds of exports can I expect from A csg modeler like WOMP? Can it mesh things then export them the traditional way? Or maybe it exports as some form of shading code like GLSL?

@gamefromscratch

It exports a tessellated (triangular) mesh.

I have a question for those who are expert in SDF engines. How do you optimize large numbers of objects ? For example, if i have 1 million sphere, the shader will calculate one million distances() function in a single fragment. An obviously optimization that comes in my mind is to not calculate a sphere if the fragment doesn't see it, but I'm interested in knowing if there is a better more involved optimization than that.

@JustMog

Жыл бұрын

i'm no expert but i believe the basic idea is, since when raymarching you're only interested in the minimum of all distances to objects in the scene, you can wrap a bunch of objects in a bounding volume and skip evaluating any of the objects themselves if the distance to the volume is greater than the current minimum.

@xinaesthetic

Жыл бұрын

It depends... Something cool about this approach is that if you have a million spheres in a grid (not independently moving objects in a scene), you could evaluate with one distance comparison that involves a modulo... As for whether this tool lets you edit stuff like that I'm not so sure.

@@xinaesthetic You are referring to fractured UV. That's perfect for certain effects and you can loop through the neighbouring cells to do cool cheap effects that appears to be moving independently as well, such as stars or water droplets on a rainy window, but I don't think it's a viable option for an SDF engine such as Dream on playstation or MagicaCSG.

It needs more tools, but it has RTR(real-time rendering). It has the potential to surpass Blender when it comes to 3D modeling. Initially, it seems more user-friendly than Vectary or other Browser based alternatives.
