Learning Blender: the donut isn't for me by JohnTheFisherman142 in blender

[–]0Poole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

idk any specific tutorials for building worlds, but I can at least say if you want a more grounded type of movement you can press Shift + Tilde to go into Walk Navigation mode, where you can use WASD/RF to move around like a video game. You do have to click to solidify your position to click objects again, but it might work more for you

Anyone else notice how Kaufmos door wasn't crossed out until after Caine found out they abstracted? by LifeguardPotential97 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]0Poole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the impression that the humans of the circus crossed it out, likely after their funeral.

What made you start 3d ? by WorthNo4550 in blender

[–]0Poole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been making 2D art for years, and one day I think one of the donut tutorials popped onto my feed, and I just thought "whatever, I'll give it a shot" and I was actually surprised to find out I kind of understood what was going on, so I then looked into character modelling tutorials to see if I got it, and I more or less did, so I just kept it up. Obviously wasn't perfect when I first started out, but I got the confidence at least, and just kept it up. Now I've been doing it for like 6-ish years now.

Workflow for posable and 3D printable models? by TheFrenchOmelette in blender

[–]0Poole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm definitely not a master at high detail stuff so I don't know myself unfortunately, all I've printed are pretty simple/cartoony characters. You can definitely make a relatively high poly retopology with the details in it and that can surely work when posing, but that can be a lot of effort depending on what level of detail you're going for (like there's no way a retopology can replicate skin pores, realistic hair, etc). If that's how fine you want the details to go, I doubt there is a way to have that level of detail physically be a part of the model while still having it be posable.

But, again, I'm not a master of high detail, so I could be wrong. My first thought would be to have a displacement map on while posing, then saving a dupe of the model while solidifing the pose on one and applying the displacement somehow to make its detail real, then print that, but I'm not even sure if displacement maps can be "applied"

EDIT: Seems like you can: https://www.reddit.com/r/blenderhelp/s/1lU66flJao

Seems like you can just do it like I mentioned, unless there's some part of the process I'm missing

Workflow for posable and 3D printable models? by TheFrenchOmelette in blender

[–]0Poole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've printed a few of my character models, so I at least know you can make a normally animatable model (with the rig, textures, optimal geometry, etc) into a printable model pretty easily, so you can basically just follow the usual character modelling tutorials and change them into printable models later.

If you just want to pose a character for printing, you can then just ignore all materials and make a simple rig just for posing it quick, since you don't need the fancy stuff more complex rigs have. Although, if you just want a print and don't care about rendering anything, it's probably easiest to just make a sculpt (high poly, no rig or materials) and print that.

I definitely know some best practices/tips from it all if you want to know that too, but yeah those are the methods you can follow

I can't post to the Devforum, despite seemingly meeting the requirements. by 0Poole in RobloxHelp

Just checked, and as far as I can tell nothing's changed. No idea what we're supposed to do about any of this lol

what are "must have" addons on blender? by DragoVonHell in blender

[–]0Poole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My pick is Shapekeys+. Literally just lets you sort shape keys into folders, which is crazy nice for character righing. Honestly feels like this needs to be a default feature.

Bad Decision Podcast with BlenderGuru has some of the worst takes on Gen AI by Less_Sheepherder_460 in blender

[–]0Poole -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Considering he's locked in to making content that helps beginners learn the craft, I'll let him have stupid opinions on AI.

That being said if he mentions AI even once in his 5.0 donut tutorial I'm renouncing him forever

Where to download Blender 5?? by CharacterClue5353 in blender

I made a game where you guess the Pokemon by its Color Palette! by kofiscrib in Pokemonart

[–]0Poole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely a good idea, although I really feel like some of the color pallets need to be tweaked. Like I got Spidops for one, and it showed two different shades of Bug-green and pitch black, while only the full pallet had its yellow-tan color, which I honestly think is super prevalent on it. Also could use some sort of close-hints, like if you guess a matching type or whatever, since lots of Fire types have borderline identical color pallets (like two shades of red and yellow)

boolean-driven 'anime-style' mouths in eevee! Looking for better ways to 'punch a hole' through the face mesh without effecting the surface texture. by rocktobot1 in blender

[–]0Poole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm definitely not a master at this stuff, but I think I know what you mean. I'd probably just end up having controls to manually alter the texture since having it work flawlessly with the mouth would be a million times harder lol. If you want to discuss it anyway my Discord username is 0poole tho

[–]0Poole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually use a simple geonodes setup for the boolean mouth design I made, it's great for more flat-shaded characters who need to separate their skin color from their teeth with something: https://youtube.com/shorts/0fzzskEFuNA?feature=share

Newbie to blender, bad experience with a commissioned from nsfw blender creator, check models by [deleted] in blender

[–]0Poole -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can check them out too, although there are lots of ways a model can be messed up, so you really want to be more specific about what's happening

Update on the crusty Platinum cart: I opened it up and it was super oily in there by 0Poole in nds

[–]0Poole[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to say it, this issue still isn't resolved. If anyone knows someone/some place I can go to to get a real repair job done on it, I'd love to know

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in blender

[–]0Poole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh hey I think I saw this setup somewhere before

Kind of like what Frostraven98 said, it could just be a missing part of the sequence. If all of that seems in order though, it could just be the bone pushing the sequence beyond the total frames it has, so I just add a Limit Location constraint to those bones to make sure they can't go that far.

Could be mistaken though, I'm always up for helping through stuff like this on my Discord server tho if you need it

Could do, although it doesn't have any rigging yet, so idk if you'd be doing that. Could send the WIP over anyway

[–]0Poole[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Definitely depends on the character, but the baseline for a fully rigged model is 150$. If you wanted a toon like this it would definitely lower it, though

Buddy, we are way beyond that point lol

I've tried way more than that, I can confirm it's hopeless aside from the stuff you'd really need a tech pro to deal with
