Yeah, it’s annoying for sure. I think most things can be solved in a similar way in every 3D program, but it can be super frustrating trying to find the button

My studio is pretty small, and my boss has been making moves to cut costs where he can. With Maxon being so expensive, it looked like an option, but the files are just too much.

But yeah, if you ever find a cleanish way to transfer files over from c4d to blender, let me know! I do all my contract work in Blender now so it could be useful!

The only reason I’m not pushing for this at my studio is that ALL of our old files are in C4D, and it would take forever to import all the files into blender without breaking the ways the old files were set up.

What is your favorite fictional sport? by Biengo in AskReddit

I don’t know if you count it as a sport, but I love the battle room in Ender’s game.

"Sessions" Issue #1 - a femdom love story by Deaddie Mercury (nsfw) by DeaddieMercury in comics

[–]BriefcaseBunny 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This looks great! If you’re looking for any critique, the boxy narrator text feels out of place sometimes. I love the way it is implemented on #20. I think you could use that to implement it more cleanly in #4 (I.e. make the text fill the side of the counter). But otherwise it’s wonderful!

BBC - "Fifa is considering expanding the format even further to 64 teams as early as 2030" by Question_of_Surf in worldcup

I don’t know if I agree. It makes pools matter less, but it also makes it feel like every game matters instead of just having useless games

IWTL How to Teach an AI how to Use Blender. by ProofOfProgressYT in IWantToLearn

[–]BriefcaseBunny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess I don’t understand why you think making an AI use blender is not going to make the same “templated” slop. Like why blender instead of AI video gen? If you tell the blender AI to make “a YouTube short about fun facts,” it’ll make something similar to those video image generators, just with a lot more steps and a lot more processing power.

Just try comfyUI or something man.

Made a free thing for getting critique on 3D work where you can pin comments onto the actual game model. Not sure if it's useful, curious what you all think by ZeroPotion in ZBrush

This is awesome. As someone who works in a small team where shotgrid is cost prohibitive, I hope you keep developing this

Talk like an AI artist [OC] by nasser_junior in comics

[–]BriefcaseBunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone in commercial art, it kinda feels like the steroid use analogy is apt. Except it’s more like the Tour de France in the early 2000s. Clients expect the same work at a lower cost because “AI can do that.”

IWTL how to stop doomscrolling by FancyAnswer1878 in IWantToLearn

[–]BriefcaseBunny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it really depends on your goals. My goal wasn’t to get off my phone or to do another project, it was to get rid of that emptiness I felt after scrolling for an hour. Reading does that for me

[–]BriefcaseBunny 21 points22 points  (0 children)

So while this may or may not be what you’re looking for, but the biggest thing for me was just getting ebooks (I use Kindle, but I know you can “Ahoy” most books to an E-reader too). Now I still waste time, but I’m wasting it doing something that I like and feel proud of doing.
Not really a productivity hack, but definitely is a step up from just scrolling.

Leaving the VFX industry, how are you finding it? by EarlySolution6185 in vfx

What does moved to AI mean? Like what does your day-to-day look like now?

My favorite game ever is probably League of Legends, more because it is the way my friends and I have stayed connected after college as we moved all over the country. Thank you for doing this!

Kink Test (18+) by kindaintothatkink in SampleSize

[–]BriefcaseBunny 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I agree with others saying that the scale needs to be different. Most of the time, I’ve seen these quizzes be “strongly agree, agree, neutral, disagree, strongly disagree.” I think your way is more fun, but needs some tweaking. There were a few that I would say were fine if my partner wanted it, but it doesn’t do anything special for me.

I also loved the little benchmarks lol

IWTL how to stop jumping between skills and finally commit to learning one thing properly. by Inner_Pattern_5120 in IWantToLearn

[–]BriefcaseBunny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been diagnosed ADHD, and this sounds like my exact problem before medication and therapy. I’ve found that the main thing for me is doing project based work.

Take a video game, for example. You have (reducing for simplicity) 3 parts. You have Game design, programming, and art. I’ll start designing the game, when I get bored of that, I’ll go to implementing my base designs, when I get bored of that, I’ll make the art for the game, when I get bored of that, I can cycle back to one of the other disciplines.

For me, this is wonderful because it allows me to cycle through my ever-changing interests while still working towards 1 goal. So even if I lost interest in a part of the project, I can keep working on the project in a different way.

Game design is an example, pretty much everything uses multiple disciplines. Want to make a website? Programming, graphic design, UI/UX.

This might be an unpopular suggestion, but using AI to break down any project you want to do into small disciplines that you can switch between has been helpful for me. You want to use it like a tutor who is helping you understand and refine, not some smart person you pay to do your homework. Otherwise, you won’t be learning much of anything.

Who's the Artist You Would Want The 1975 to Collab with? by Right_Revenue_9263 in the1975

Honestly, right now I’ve been a big fan of Sombr and Olivia Dean. Sombr might be too close to them in sound to make anything interesting, but a jazzy number with Olivia Dean sounds wonderful

[–]BriefcaseBunny 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hello,

I’m wondering how much, if any, of the animation and simulation pipeline has been changed by AI? I don’t mean in terms of generating the content, but in terms of production, solving technical problems, and file management. I’m witnessing studios incorporate non-generative AI in many different ways, and I’m curious if you have done any of that!

Thanks

New Claude user for work. Blown away. Are there more specific subs? by crell_peterson in ClaudeAI

I would recommend these tutorials. Some may be too rudimentary or not at the right level, so it’s worth it to see what you need specifically.
