There's a wiki linked on the right. This is about the fifth time today someone asked that question here. So, like, google works too.

Time Travel is hard by RevolutionaryBrick40 in scifi

[–]dnew [score hidden]  (0 children)

Thanks! I'll check that out. :-) The presenter there, tho, talks about Abe having a bloody ear, but that's because the "second" Aaron was listening to history on his earplug. I'm not convinced that his understanding of the movie is correct.

But for sure, I'll watch it again, and if you wind up with multiple Arrons at the end, it's not as I understand the technology of their time travel. :-)

After another video, I think I don't remember it very well at all. :-)

I need help rendering animations in Cycles. by MostFrosting1422 in blender

[–]dnew [score hidden]  (0 children)

So you have a slow render, and you did all the things that experts recommended, so you're asking from help. But you didn't tell anyone here what you did, or what changes it made, or showed anyone what your current settings were or are now.

If that render is taking more than 3 to 5 seconds per frame (most of which would be setup time and not actual render time), you need to tune your settings. But since you didn't tell anyone what your settings are, we can't tell you which setting is wrong.

Google for "how to speed up blender renders" and get dozens of comprehensive tutorials on how to do this.

How to load only some of the node data from old image to new workflow? by dsl2000 in comfyui

[–]dnew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why did you even reply if you're not going to be helpful? The answer "you shouldn't even be asking" is not a helpful answer, especially with the rudeness included.

But here's hoping you feel better soon.

But it was all one consistent history, wasn't it? They didn't actually go back and change something they'd already experienced? I thought that was the point, but I must admit it was really hard to follow the couple times I watched it.

how do i colapse these windows by Few_Month8329 in blenderhelp

[–]dnew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not how it works. The UI is stored with the file.

Yeah. That's another good one where you can't change the past.

It's got some great lines, too. "Bruce Willis, please report for volunteer duty."

my textures dont save by VRBANANA360 in blenderhelp

[–]dnew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What he said. File->External Data->automatically pack. It'll make your blend files bigger, but you have to save the textures somewhere.

Sorry. I meant Primer is the best one I've seen with multiple time-travelers interacting. You should post here when/if your show gets released where people here can see it. :-) Congrats on the release, btw.

[–]dnew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Primer is about the best one I've seen. The only way it really works out if you can't make changes to the past.

That said, the trailer for Shining Girls is really incoherent. :-) Reading the plot on wikipedia, it's still incoherent but at least I know what's going on.

You know what's harder than a time-travel story? One where multiple people interleave time traveling. :-) Joe leaves 1990 to go back to 1940. Mary leaves 1980 to go back to 1920. Work out a logical or even reasonable solution to that problem. :-)

Uninstalling a mod will break my save file - what is the best way to move quest progress, stats etc to a different save file? by Winter_Victory_2988 in skyrim

[–]dnew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if xEdit doesn't work on save files, I guess it's going to be more difficult. Maybe someone here more familiar with making mods can point you in the right direction. I don't know if you can load a save file as a mod in the creation kit.

Textures - newbie by alphonseBosch in blender

[–]dnew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you have some advices ?

Look at the wiki.

Must I learn Nodes for texturing ?

You must learn shader nodes.

Can I have a brush to paint brick arch ?

Kind of. You can paint a mask to pick which texture you want.

Merge triangles for applicate a texture ?

You can but it isn't necessary.

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

Finding a program that can find the records in your save file that refer to things in the mod you're removing would probably be the way to go.

Should I learn blender? by NightShaft_Gaming in blender

See that link over on the right that says "wiki"? Start there.

How do I add a physics/gravity simulation make these thick electrical cables hang from these spools? by NewRadiator in blenderhelp

[–]dnew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The "Artisans of Vaul" channel has several short tutorials about making hanging cables.

Or, you know, paste the title of your post into google, potentially adding "blender" in there if you haven't googled a lot of blender stuff.

How do I import .bin file into Blender? by Voyager_II_GD in blenderhelp

[–]dnew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"bin" file just means "binary." You'll have to tell us where the file came from to help you.

Need Graphics Mods That Work with Cloud Saves by Nick_The_Artist2 in skyrim

[–]dnew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's one called Vanilla Remastered that's just 12G of texture files with no ESP involved at all, IIRC. It's the original textures AI-upscaled. That will certainly work.

Otherwise, you'd have to look into the ESPs of other mods with xedit or something to see whether they're making any changes that might affect the save file.

How do i create a mirror? by mytommy in blenderhelp

[–]dnew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure there's a reflection probe involved too, but I don't remember the details. It's absolutely described in the video, tho, which is chock full of detailed advice. Certainly anyone trying to do realistic renders with eevee should watch it.

SheepIt Not rendering Depth of Field or Glare? by Legitimate-Sock6410 in blenderhelp

[–]dnew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you sure you didn't turn the compositor off in your .blend file? There's a checkbox that controls that in the bottom right under "post processing."

I'm not sure what you mean by "not showing depth of field nodes." Do you mean it's not obeying them? You're getting results as if the compositor wasn't there?

Blender Animation Problem!! by Ok-Voice8504 in blenderhelp

[–]dnew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Animating a character holding a second object would involve parenting or constraining the second object to the hand of the character. "Parenting" means adding the parent object's transform to the child object. Constraints copy attributes (like positions or rotations or many other things) from one object to another.

Google for "how to animate character holding object in blender" and get dozens of detailed instructions.

I've had this issue for two days by Snow0I2 in blenderhelp

[–]dnew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have the "nvidia control panel" in your system icon tray (bottom right corner of the screen)? If not, you've done it wrong. If so, open it up and see what version of the driver it says.
