How do you simulate light coming through the lamp shade without having it cast the shadow of sed Lamp shade. An example is of this is my hanging lamp.

I'm on 2017.2.1 (I think) I've found that when editing functions - even actions as simple as changing the value of a constant - designer will simply stop processing certain (sometimes all) nodes.

When I convert the result to mesh (or export), UV0 and UV1 have been swapped.…

I think the stretching of the arms and…

have a year long class, where we can work on any type of project we want. Being
a 3D artist, I wanted to make an intractable environment but needed help
coding so I decided to team up with one of my close friends. He is…
as far as I can work out the US has decided.... 1 and 2: It doesn't matter - robot work cannot be copyrighted. Can you create derivative work from something a robot did and own the copyright? yes, you can it's not AI, it's a complicated filter. if we stop calling it AI we'll stop attributing human characteristics to it and…
