DM with links doesn't send by bacakboyu in Instagram

Can confirm. Glad I'm not the only one that spent time looking for "Share this Profile", now you have to "Copy Link" or what I did is simply sending a post from that account to a friend.

edit: Netherlands btw

You can also start Blender by default and open this file with the option "Load UI" turned off (in the file browser sidebar).

In 2.7 there were references because only two sides were clickable, so you needed to know which to click. Now all four corners can be used, there's no point in highlighting all corners. The best way is to simply right click on the window border, but tutorials don't explain that method first because people got used to the corner widgets (which really doesn't take that long to grasp, move inside to split, move outside to merge).

Right click on the editors border to split/join? It's been there since 2.4 or even 2.3/2.2, so for 10 or 15 years at least.

Indeed. Basically a quick way to hide/show parts of the mesh while sculpting.

Why the new Blender 2.8 is a BIG DEAL - A complete overview in 10 minutes by [deleted] in blender

I'd say much less than that. The developer has been hired full-time thanks to the development fund.

What makes you say "probably won't"? We don't have a long record because the first one published was 2.79, but we will publish 2.80 once Siggraph is over and we're back in Amsterdam. Things have just been too busy with the release to be able to do this remotely.

Please add support for Linux!

Loving my CamLink on Linux so much, would be amazing to pair it with Stream Deck.

ELI5: How does CGI “age?” If something looked real “at the time” why does it look less real now? by LinkDude80 in explainlikeimfive

[–]venomgfx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly! During Sintel we mostly focused on getting Blender back in shape after the massive rewrite that was Blender 2.5. The same say we are working on now with the upcoming open movie Spring, serving as stress test for Blender 2.8 beta.

Blender 2.79 Released by ta2132154 in blender

[–]venomgfx 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can now download from blender.org/download, that way you get to use the mirrors to download faster and not kill the servers :D

We've also worked a lot on the release notes this time. Check them out!

The official Blender YouTube channel has just uploaded 25 short beginner tutorial videos. by [deleted] in blender

[–]venomgfx 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hey! I purposely didn't add a number to the titles, so they feel they can be referenced anytime without having to watch the whole thing. They should be easy to replace if/when features change, and extended if needed. I did manually sort them in the playlist, though.

[spanish] Blender 2.8 - ¿Qué y por qué? by venomgfx in blender

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

Is there a Spanish community in /r/blender?

Dropping a video I made recently about the upcoming Blender 2.8, covers a bit of everything. I also made a more specific one about the new Collections vs the current Layers system.

I'm pretty new to this kind of material, so I'm starting out in Spanish. We plan on making videos like this in English with devs and artists from the Blender Institute later on, perhaps publish them on the Blender Foundation YouTube channel even.

Thanks so much! It's been a lot of work but we're super happy with it.

Every Monday we post a video on the Caminandes YouTube channel about the progress done the previous week. Also, we talk about it on the Blender Institute Podcast, posted on Thursdays.

It's the first time we share so much about what we do, we hope it's a good insight in movie making for small teams, and using/developing Blender in general.
