Does it make more sense to texture in CLO or bring it to blender and texture it there?
>>
>>981883
No. Marvelous has a view to layout uvs, just do that, export and texture wherever you normally do. Marvelous will export stitching at geometry iirc. You're better off building that into the textures with something like substance painter (or redo the stich geo procedurally in Houdini or geo nodes if you need autistic levels of detail)

>>981880
is what you export from it meant to be bake-ready, or do you need to sculpt on top of it in zbrush?

And you can see the difference with the default IK solver here >>983442 because there are no pole targets. A limb tries to match the position and orientation of its control bone, you can specify priorities, limits, there's a rudimentary self-collision avoidance thing. You can specify multiple targets within the same chain and the effects can propagate to other chains. All sorts of stuff.
But like with the Softbody simulator, there are bugs and the quality of the documentation ranges from nonsensical to misleading, so the only way to know what a parameter really does is to read the source code.
I don't know why they where abandoned and vandalized over time. I don't know the story behind it, but for myself, when I'll put it all together it should come out quite nice.

no, 99% of Windows users don't ever work with 3D objects and those who do have their own directory structure that is often determined by the program. pure idiocy from Microshit's side

the eternal debate...

spoiler: only Z-Up is based. Z-Up came first in history, so it must be right. CAD enginners and cartographers used 3D graphics long before any of you animators dicking around in Maya.

OpenGL doesn't have an up convention, you can use whatever you want.
Well clip space is Y-up I guess, with Z as depth. But the convention for cameras is different than for the world. Blender uses Z-depth/Y-up for cameras, despite the world being Z-up.

>Blender uses Z-depth/Y-up for cameras, despite the world being Z-up.
HOLY ratardation
>>
>>983366
You are the ratard anon. What happens when the camera is rolled 90 degrees? What happens when the camera is pointing straight down on the scene from above?

There is no relationship between camera space and world space so they don't need to "line up".

I understand both, have intuition for both and I can work with both.

The only way to truly create retro CGI is by using period accurate hardware and software, anything else is forced soul from coping zoomers.

excuse me? but WHAT THE FUCK? am i looking at?

you know, this does really makes me respect and appreciate Cris even more. yes he's also a degenerate autist but at least he's benign and doesnt harm others.

so if im looking at this PinkPill saga faggotry right, it seems to me that this Proxima girl and her gang are responsible for bullying and suicide of a dude, just because the dude is brown and doesnt fit in with the rest of the cumskin femboys? holy shit thats honestly fuckedup even for 4chan standards. im actually glad this crazy bitch got exposed by kiwifarms.

you know, prox might be using period accurate hardware and software, but...there is just something uncanny about his "style" or "aesthetic" that makes his shit looks rather unauthentic (or, dare i say it: forced soul).

i really can't put my finger to pinpoint whats making it uncanny though...maybe its the wrong shading/lighthing method? (actual old cg artists used alot of clever tricks to get good looking images, which prox seemingly failed to emulate). or perhaps its simply the subject matter (creepy pasta children mascot shit and animu moe moe shit, but in 80's cg style lmao).

anyways. fuck of nick. stop shitting up boards with your shilling.

its kind of like building a plane in 1920 vs a plane in 2024.

back then all you needed was wood, canvas, and knowledge of aerodynamics.
now you need to understand jet engines, combustion, materials science, and a billion other things.

It's not that. The difference is the amount of "regulations" or "industry standards" or "APIs" that are completely useless but that you're expected and in some cases bullied into learning.

I think I can model just fine, but the hardest part is texturing. A lot of them are hand-drawn and I'm not as good at drawing.

its pretty funny to see how mad people get over a few polygons.
im not saying its easy, but it is significantly easier than doing a detailed sculpt with the whole retopo and baking process.

at any stage in the process you can tweak your shape without having to worry about it, its just very forgiving

Show me 10 different artists that make good low poly right now, not baked textures from high poly.
I can show you 10 good 3d sculptors without a problem.
I make both things, you have probably seen a film with one of my sculptures.
But when I worked on a game company making a mobile game we had to go to Asia for good low poly modelers because of the shit artists produced here.
Hand painted low poly takes shit ton of time to make, and a lot less people can do a good job.

Hey now, I didn't say I wasn't. It was just funny seeing him watching anime in general. Usually he's watching Phineas and Pherb or something.
My mom used to unironically watch Bleach too, on her own back, when that was on Adult Swim in like 2009 or 2010, and she said she hated cartoons. She made it all the way to the end of the SS Arc. I miss her.
My grandma LOVES Transformers and I have to take her to every movie.

Do they take a special computer graphics course in Japanese only? Why do we westerners have to be content with a subpar anatomy tutorial with ugly bodies?

My answer: Topology over anything else. After extracting 3d models from multiple japanese games myself, they were simply made by hobbyists with no background at modeling. It's the information they had available at Japan which is something I need to obtain.

wtf no, thats not what it should mean
even sculpts are generally retopod, does that mean they are then turned "lowpoly" ?
>>
>>981896
This and a lot of planning.
I think old MGS games are the gold standard, all the models are low with triangles, but the shapes are so well thought of and the texture work is so impecable, that you cant notice how simple they are.
Also, good rigging.

I really need to learn how to draw if I'm going to make good textures for my models, huh
