Hey everyone! I’m a 3D artist specialized in architectural visualization and I’ve been in the industry for over 5 years. Recently, I’ve been thinking about diving into Python and I’m really curious about how it could help improve my workflow, productivity and income in Archviz. I know Python is widely used in the world,…
If you want python and 3d, that's a hell of an argument to jump over to blender. All the scripting is python. Every blender plugin is written in python. I haven't touched max in years though, Looks like they finally have python support now? regardless the blender world is where you'll find a lot of inspiration for what can…
the problem with OP switching to blender is that the entire archviz space is max based - max is objectively better suited to dealing with anything precise/cad derived as well. I've not touched it in a while but max's python (to me) is similar in feel to pymel in maya It's a lot less stinky than maya.cmds but you're still…
I pay $20 subscribtion for chatGPT and it's quite capable to do whatever addon you may want for Blender . With current 4.5 chat version it even suggests ideas that wouldn't ever cross my mind . Almost everything Chat writes for Blender nowadays just works . Takes maybe 3-4 re-doing, error fixing. Tryed to make it write me…
My advice.. Read what chatgpt did. Use it to learn to write the code yourself and apply that to any language and environment you find yourself in. The llms are good at JavaScript and python because 90% of the code on GitHub is JavaScript or python. they fall flat pretty quick outside of that environment and fail utterly…
I needed a script other day that would calculate normal maps intensity parameter from a target normal map example and match all the project normal maps to same intensity for more unified look . I asked Chat to hipass normal maps, extract high frequency details and measure each pixel normal deviation from vertical, find a…
"People (including me) have made Blender Add-ons that simulate 2D gizmos over compositor inputs!" it's what chat GPT wrote me today . Looks like it consider itself a person already :)
One common issue I've seen in archviz work at major retailers (I used to work at Wayfair, now I provide software for similar big retailers) is how difficult it is to get consistent quality assets from outsourcers. There's a strong need for validation systems. We had an extensive system in Max that checked for more than 100…
