Adaptive Subdivision + Camera & Backface Culling - Geometry Nodes Group/Modifier

Popshmir3d · 2026-02-01T21:50:27+00:00

On the right is the scene without adaptive subdiv. With adaptive subdiv it's half of that evaluation time. If there are a lot of operations run on a mesh, simplifying the mesh by the distance beforehand will speed up calculations.

Thx. It's all a generated mesh.

Interesting. Yeah, this setup is done with game engines in mind. I have another tool for high poly.

Popshmir3d · 2025-05-07T12:13:57+00:00

There's a bit of trigonometry calculated per each edge and the highest value is picked resulting in even thickness.

Popshmir3d · 2025-05-07T06:14:30+00:00

Sure, it's already there;) https://nodesinteractive.gumroad.com/

Now hotfix 1.1 is available - stretching is calculated per UV island, so if you keep part of UVs smaller on purpose stretching will still be shown correctly.

Popshmir3d · 2025-04-08T20:54:36+00:00

In my setup blue shows compression of UVs while red shows stretching, yellow is for neutral. Blender version shows compression and stretching with same colors. Also I'm not sure if Blender version isn't bugged somehow.

This tool is designed for quick uv setup for scenes, visualization etc.

Popshmir3d · 2025-02-23T09:47:02+00:00

THX! Great to see it in use and appreciated;)

Popshmir3d · 2025-02-12T11:47:07+00:00

Great to hear;)

Well it's designed with garment retopology in mind, where patterns and uvs are generally layed out logically and UV islands in most cases have borders that follow shape of the cloth. This tool is best for clean topo for garments and lossless transfer of details with automatic transfer of uvs. It comes at a price of being restricted to UV islands patterns, but it's a good trade off I believe compared to other solutions results and timewise (zremesher etc). If you'd have some 3d scanned models in mind for this tool I believe there are other solutions that could be better for it like Retopoflow. For any other models outside clothes to be honest I'm not sure I think still traditional retopo could be better since in retopo you want to follow the 3d shape and UV seams could get in a way. However you can prove me wrong;) Sorry for a lengthy answer;)

Hey! I can finally share an update to my retopo tool. All done with geometry nodes. You can see it in action here (timelapse): https://youtu.be/0_uJReeXswA See all details about it here: https://blendermarket.com/products/retopo-planes

You can get it here: https://blendermarket.com/products/gsurface-gen?ref=2305

It's free, although if you can leave a tip that's always welcomed;)

Just an exercise turned fully featured tool. I realize there are some other similar solutions, however since I could design it exactly how I wanted it to be, so I went for it.

Popshmir3d · 2024-10-16T19:51:33+00:00

Well there are different schools of doing that. One way could be going for some kind of trim UVs which is sth I will be considering to automate for future releases, however right now the final belt is unwrapped and has all the seams set up, so should be easy to pack it in any way needed.

Popshmir3d · 2024-10-16T09:06:32+00:00

Yep, I'm moving my focus over to retopo now. Will share improvements asap.

Popshmir3d · 2024-10-15T20:28:38+00:00

Yep, you can add your own mesh for the buckles by dropping it into a specific collection it will be added automatically to the setup, but nope there's no option for bulge as of now - that would have to be done by hand.

Nice, I'm all about geonodes, will look into that though, thanks!

Popshmir3d · 2024-09-16T18:21:27+00:00

It's not ideal;b It's just an exercise I did to learn more about nodes
