@RN Thank you for explaining that!! Now I know what that is about. I always wondered what that OT meant too...Your insight is tremendously helpful Rafael (espanol?)! Guys, about linked objects: is there a quicker way to place multiple linked objects along a surface than using the right click and manual transform tools? Pic…
Totally agree Ruka. I personally came to Blender after getting more and more frustrated with Autodesk apps (pricing, poor stability, ridiculous Maya LT limitations, and so on), so I finally set some time aside to get into the app at the end of last year. I came out blown away buy the feature set : on many fronts it is…
Honestly, I tried the Pie menus for a whole month and I couldn't find any benefits over my hotkey workflow. Quite the contrary. They slowed me down eventually. So I don't see what the fuzz is about them. But whatever floats your boat. Maybe it's for people who have a hard time to get used to a hotkey centric workflow…
The problem here is that Maya/3dsmax and Blender have a different set of functions and tools. While some of them behave like their counterparts in other 3d applications, many are unique in the way they work and can't be directly remapped to the same shortcuts and provide the same user interaction as you find it in other 3d…
metalliandy: No, the only official word they've given is that they are focusing on other projects in addition to silo as well as using it themselves for asset production in those projects. Along this line they are still committed to it. For some reason people equate this to no development at all. It's not the same level of…
@f1r3w4rr10r Like I said, XRay brings its own problems. Not only we should have an option to select things behind other things if we want to without having to toggle other modes every time, the way Blender works right now is that XRay will force a change in selection behavior, from area-based selection (click/drag anywhere…
@birb : this issue is that these topics are highly subjective relative, and also not quite debug-able like a regular bug would. For instance your GIF seems to show that there is no issue. But is it actually the case in a practical scenario ? The fact of the matter is ... what could be perceived as harsh "name calling" on…
Hello all, At this time, is there any Blender version out there that has a fast enough (for lack of a better way to put it) processing speed for the boolean brush in sculpt mode ? The current implementation (either Line or Box) is just as slow as a regular boolean calculation (of course), but the 30 seconds or so of…
I believe Autodesk has patents for UI elements like the viewcube, quad menu, and marking menu. Idk if they have any for modeling tools and parametric primitives that can be edited after creation. If they do, some of Blender's slow, roundabout methods for achieving the same thing in Max makes sense since they don't wanna…
Yes, it takes less time. X-( ok ok I know, I shoudnt post that here but it's stil kinda my first lil achievement inside of Blender. I've managed in my free time after school and work to finish my first animation in Blneder using my own perosnal rig. [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fghfKQNzdPI[/ame] Now that this is…
