If anyone has any suggestions to give regarding the new precision modeling tools, this is the place: https://devtalk.blender.org/t/discussions-for-better-snapping-and-precision-modeling-to-come/5351
Great work Danny! But also GODDAMMIT I also had a M249 model in the works in Blender hahahahaha Now I have a good model of reference to compare myself against though ;)
Anyone get hardlocked video card failure freezes with Radeon HD5/6? It doesn't matter how complex the model is - it happened to me while I was uvmapping a lowpoly model on a 128x64 texture.
You've never created a face with more than 4 sides to it while modeling? I don't see how that's possible unless you mean you've just never left one in a finished model.
You're modelling with free standing edges here which is a rather unique Blender thing. I love it and it's one of the reasons why i picked up Blender but in this situation i would just use straight poly modeling, fill the cylinder with a face and use j or knife. Not sure what benefits modeling with free standing edges could…
Would Blender be better at speed modelling than Modo? I have seen some videos of Modo where the modelling/boolean process is extremely quick. Not to turn this into a Modo VS Blender thread but is the difference negligible?
Part 9.1 of the Blender 2.80 for Max users is up. Basic modeling concepts in Blender and a look at Extrude and Inset. Should be another 2 or 3 parts to the modeling sub-series https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAmLf_VAP7k
yearly release business model? maybe for the 2.8 refactoring, not as business model. PBR branch is there from a while but I guess it will properly show up woth the 2.8 release. @joseconseco thanks for the addon, looks great!
