Nice ad hominem man, and you dare to call me "arrogant" when i was being objetive, showing a video with a different workflow i was trying to adapt in some way into blender. Relax. You only see trees in the forest my friend. This love of yours with Blender have you really blind. That's the bad thing of forums, some people…
If I am not mistaken, when people mention the Maya pie menus they tend to do so because the Maya Hotbox (that's the name right ?) allows for near gesture-like inputs with a very snappy behavior when pointing at quarters/boxes. Whereas the modern Blender pie menus are imo really painful to use - not in terms of display…
@pior Correct. On my system (Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit) it's possible to open multiple versions of Blender, select object(s) from any of them then copy and paste them into other versions. Just tested this functionality again to confirm with all the versions that are currently installed on this system. All the Blender…
Not trying to belittle anyones work here, but i try out blender from time to time to see how it advances, and my gawd there are a ton of cases where it isn't consistent with it's self. Also a lot of the bmesh tools still dont work as expected. i was testing with the graphic all build of the latest trunk at the time. first…
@Udjani Ahhh I finally see what you mean. It's tricky. I need to set the 3d Cursor to geomtery, set the transform orientation to Cursor, and finally set the 3d cursor position to Median point/bounding box center. Seems like creating a custom pivot is faster and simpler, but it's good to know there's this other method.…
Hey guys, sorry for not reading much in this thread, but it's freakishly huge to trawl through. I already googled most of these things and haven't found very satisfactory answers. So I'm learning Blender, I like it a lot more than maya and it's way easier to get into than Modo. But: * I don't like how picking the Maya…
Yeah, i think the same. I have some hopes with Blender. In my case, with an already stablished workflow, they must do better in order to make people like me to switch completely to Blender. I'm not going to break my workflow and going back 15 years in my life using obsolete apps like 3ds Max. Furthermore, modo 14 will…
I totally agree, Jonathan. More often than not I find that Blender has a negative reputation among many professionals and though it is getting better, it is still a problem. I have been using Blender for years and have been flamed out of BlenderArtists/elysiun on numerous occasions for suggesting features or improvements…
Hey, thanks for the suggestions y'all. @Justo : unfortunately this is *precisely* the problem with this new paradigm. On paper/in theory it sounds great and all, the feature is here since the little triangle icon does get highlighted ... but in practice it doesn't really work (at least for me) because as soon as a…
@musashidan I will watch these, thank you for sharing your findings with us. I'll watch it next week though, since I need to start preparing for a trip now. I'm so slow haha...But learning new software is exciting! During the creation of this bolt head, these were my main concerns during the modeling: * Any one-button…
