>>981998maybe im retarded but those look like quads?
>>982101Quads are the ones with 3 sides no?
>>982102quad = square/rectangle = 4tri = triangle = 3
>>982106I've honestly never seen someone attempt 3d graphics without first understanding what a triangle is, this is one for the books

Ladies and Gentlemen of /3/,The next 4 upcoming years, i will spend every single day in the production for the pilot-episode of a new Berserk adaptation. >Narrative - 100 % faithful to the Manga>Art Style - inspired by Netflix Arcane (pic related)Without any doubt: this project is a Behemoth, but i am dead serious about the production.Truth to be told, i am lacking experience, which is why i created this thread in the first place. I would like to know your opinion on certain topics - Roughly spoken about project-management, planing and execution.I am not asking for direct involvement in the project - at least not until i proved myself with regular updates and progress that i am the real deal.
>>982083Wow, this is actually a sad fucking shitshow. Thanks for the warning.So, i tried to retexture the mesh this time with the tablet. I didn't think it would make such a great difference...

>>982098you just discovered masking? we're learning at high speeds in here, GO ANON GO!
>>982098Nice jotaro kujo
>>982098>>982103this iis wrong but gave me another ideayou can render an unshaded version and then a a shadow coming from each light and compose that with masks or whatever, it is more manual but it can get you extra level of control over the artistic outcome
Just my luck ffs finally have a week of free time to try to learn something and it's gone.Not saying I'm lost without it but it would help.

just doing a full dress vellum sim on a walking character and by default the velocity coming from the translation is pretty out of control.had to do extract the transform and move the character to the origin for a psuedo walk-in-place to get a decent result.is this standard practise?

I am now much stronger, and now have mastered AI as well as 3D and 2D.
>>982084Good on you, the other stuff clearly isn't working out well. The more removed you are from trying to create something the better it turns out, and people say ai is a bad thing huh

The only way to truly create retro CGI is by using period accurate hardware and software, anything else is forced soul from coping zoomers.
>>981951This, it doesn't matter what software or hardware you're using if all you do is render le epic twitter zoomer anime girls and some primitives

Hello 3DCG, i'd appreciate some help learning about 3D, specifically animation. i don't know much yet, but i'm trying to learn and i had 2 questions. thank youthere was this app I remember which converted footage into 3D rendered environments. i'm not looking for quality or anything professional, i just want to quickly convert images into these low poly, weird 3D like pic relpic came from this video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evOpfRkZjDMcheck it out, it has that distorted, low quality, low polygon look i'm trying to recreate. and if i'm not mistaken they used that app. any recommendations are welcomei'd also like to know which programs experts here recommend to beginners getting into 3D, specifically animation. i read the sticky and it seems to be more oriented towards modeling. so as a beginner looking primarily to composite scenes, import low poly models, some light character animation & do some basic camera work, which program would you recommend? maybe some underground, lesser known, older programs that you see people rarely mention? i'm open to anything, i played around with Bryce 3D and it's pretty incredible thank you!
>>982063make a few pics from different yet close camera angles and pretty much most 3d software will turn it into a cgi scene>howidk, but it is there, so learn it
the video you've linked is the result of bad photogrammetry - there are a bunch of different applications out there that perform similarlyif you don't give too much of a fuck and are diy (you seem like the type), you should look at phone apps that will get you results like that straight from your phone - again, the word you're looking for is photogrammetry - usually people try for high quality results, but if your settings are low you'll get results like the ones you wantyou should just use blender as your dcc for now (it won't do the photogrammetry, you'll need to do that somewhere else and import the files in), you can get results like your vid pretty easily. plenty of resources out there. you might be tempted to learn some hipster shit and yeah that's fun, but you won't go far in /3/ without solid foundations. do the boring normie stuff first.
>>982065"photogrammetry" that's extremely useful in my search, thank you!

>>982045if strandbased then go to surface tab and change the mm root and end thickness in the top. if the hairs are too spread out then go down to the dforce settings and increase the density (but watch it here as this is very heavy on the GPU).
>>982025They will acquire Renderotica next...

>>980637For some reasons some very, very tame Pixiv artists were b&n earlier this year (and later this previous years). Most have no idea why. We're talking as tame as Ganseki.While some absurdly disgusting guro loli Daz artists were still allowed on the platform. No one has no idea why. The answer from pixiv is more or less "violating our policy", without telling what policy.It is theorized that "good" (aka lifelike) Daz artists were banned, because they approach the quality of photorealism, while "bad" guro loli rapists were not, because no photorealism while they murder and eat loli, but literally no one knows why.If you're "good" and only do vaguely underdressed pinup you're fine tho.Kinda weird policy knowing the kind of absolute degenerate Guro 2d art being present on pixiv, little girls being eaten alive, etc.
What Genesis is this costume for? I've spent hours looking but my eyes are numb.

So I'm finally unbanned. /archviz/ was cool but was pruned in the ban I'm no longer in the mood for that.So /3dsg/ anything 3ds max related. Tell me if you have any doubts using this god awful fucking piece shit of a software, wips, works etc etc.
>>981939The path deform modifier has a driven rotation modifier that can control the twist using a curve.But for that ribbon I'd model it manually or simulate it.
>>981939>>981963Something like this. I'd still do it manually but that's me. It depends on the level of realism you need.
>>981963>>981964brillant thanks
>>981986Np. Keep posting
Trying this luma labs stuff for the first time. I've always had problems with kid assets in pools cuz there is not many but this stuff is powerful. The models are not super realistic but with some trickery they definitely work.

I spent so much fucking time trying to get a pirated version of Cinema 4D working When i get it working the Redshift not working right when redshit working some other shit crashing Why the fuck did i think just because that shit more expensive it was better than blender when blender addons & renderers are so easy to install >but in reality i do want to go into mainly motion graphic simulations & animation so it might be better
>>980219renders p good
>>980029FR I used to get by with the 'Education' version of Maxon One bundle, but they changed the fucking system so now I can't get it. It's borderline impossible to get a pirated version of C4D + Redshift to work properly. FFS
>>980346I've been hearing this for over a decade now. Blender is still not even close to 3ds.

Another blog post of a guy hoping to make it.for reference i never complete any projects cause I'm lazy and I lack discipline, also because I have a day job.Let's see if I can finish this time, goal is to finish a base mesh with game res and textures, as well as eyes and hair cards.Also, please feel free to destroy me, I value your opinions.

>>981424I like that they're going for making external DCCs such as Maya, 3DS and Blender completely irrelevant. I think that's the right move.

Can anyone recommend a course/tut for UE for non-game (VFX/full 3d anims) uses?
Any virtual production course for Unreal for total beginner (not in UE, in virtual production).
