In /3/s expert option what went wrong?
Are they really running a UE5 Lumen PBR pipeline with stylized post-processing on top?
Would doing stylized rendering in Unity's scripted render pipeline fix this?

Can you guys recommend me some really good YouTube channel that teach us how to make 3d animation. REMEMBER A REALLY REALLY GOOD YOUTUBE CHANNEL THAT TEACH US HOW TO MAKE 3D ANIMATION

Addition : i'm the same guy who make thread that post “Is there a good channel to learn how to make 3d animation and what's the good 3d software animation for beginner”

The program that solved the modeling problem for good and got assassinated by Autodesk as a result.
1. Same interface for decades, already has 99% of tools you need, with an intuitive UI that any non-tech person can easily master.
2. Autodesk bought it, added extremely well Maya keybinds and yet nobody bothered to check the box.
3. When everything else failed, they just pulled the plug.

Have a cinema 4d question? recently started a project? Or simply want to talk about modeling and texturing

How to stop proscatinating ;_;

Jobs are drying up. Talented 3D artists are getting laid off. Accept it, it's over. The jobs aren't coming back and AI is going to take over this field. So accept it. Accept it and go into trades. Quit doing this this and do real work. Go be an electrician. Just quit living with your head in the clouds. Move on.

Works fine
>link folder with 2000 sbsar files into library in Substance Painter
It shits itself, long loading times at every start up

What's the fucking deal with that? Aren't they supposed to work similarly?
How do you anons manage local Painter resources?

First attempt at rigging my first character...it's NOT looking good bros

What do you think of this shoe model I made?

None of you are going to make it in the 3D industry. The industry doesn’t want you, your “style” is irrelevant, and your “passion” means nothing. Studios are drowning in Chinese portfolios better than yours. AI is already doing your job faster than you. And no, your donut, your anime bust, or your cyberpunk alleyway doesn’t make you special. You’re one of thousands churning out the same crap hoping for validation. Entry level offers are basically nonexistent. They only want seniors with industry experience.

Meanwhile plumbers are raking in more money than any of you will ever touch in 3D. They get paid on the clock, not in “exposure.” They don’t fight for scraps on freelance boards. They don’t watch their skillset become obsolete overnight because Autodesk decided to change their licensing model. A plumber apprentice makes more in a week than you do in a month of Fiverr commissions.

You’re not a future Pixar artist. You’re not a visionary. You’re wasting years staring at a viewport making fake pipes when you could be fixing real ones for real money. In four years, a plumbing apprentice has a house and a stable career. In four years, you’ll still be on /3/, posting “rate my topology” and seething about why no one hires you.

Stop coping. Quit 3D. Pick up a wrench and complete your plumbers apprenticeship.

can someone animate jax but short and fat?
i think it would be funny

hi anons i am new to this stuff heres a meatball he says hello

How does it feel knowing the second best skill in the world?

There has to be a less retarded way of setting up UV shifting for low poly face texture swapping than this

I upgraded to an RX 6650 XT a while ago. It's fine for gaming at 1080p, but once I got into 3DCG work now it's showing it's lackluster performance. Rendering is slow, VRAM is short, and compared to NVIDIA offerings, the AMD cards just don't excel in 3DCG.

I got a 500W PSU and am running Ubuntu, so I'm a bit afraid of changing to NVIDIA drivers. What do I upgrade so I can properly dive into complex animated scenes and shit. Also I got a budget of like $500-600 or so.

Gentlemen, may I propose a shared learning experience?

Here's how it works:
- a subject matter is chosen, and anons participating create each their own rendition of it;
- the exercise is divided in "phases", for each phase we shall set a deadline; once it's reached we move onto the next phase, and so on and so forth;
- this exercise is aimed at giving participants an opportunity to learn about the topic at hand; anons may ask ITT information which may fill their deficiencies, if they're feeling generous others might just give you a hand by providing answers that are focused and concise (cut the fat lads, time is money), THAT IS if they feel they got anything useful to share, if they don't then they shouldn't feel obligated to. Even then, don't count too much on that, some anons may only be in it for the exercise.

With that out of the way, I propose participants create their own bedroom within their 3D program of choice. If you already have something like that please refrain from posting it, this thread is intended for those making one from scratch, alternatively you can make a new one at the same pace as us.
Make it any way you like: inspired by how your bedroom actually looks irl or create the one you'd like to have but can't afford to, or create a sci-fi or fantasy themed one, anything goes.

Current phase is:
>Phase 1: Conceptualization
Before even building your bedroom in a 3D environment, it is highly advised to conceptualize it first. Plan how large the room should be, from the floor area to the ceiling height, decide on the style you're aiming for, collect the references you need according to the style you've chosen, decide on a color palette if you're feeling extra fancy. As a final step for the conceptualization phase I like to draw a sketch of how I intend for the room to end up looking.
Deadline for Phase 1 is:
>august 11th
I will report back by then myself with a sketch of the room I got planned.
So yeah, if you're interested I'll see you then, cheers

Tell me where's 3D modelling AI located at? There's free Pepe 3D model but the face doesn't look like this one. Aaarghhh! It feels like shit that this is the first time I'm being scammed. Fucking indonesian.

i downloaded it, so if it takes it down ill repost

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

why is the graph editor in Blender still such a piece of useless shit? why don't they improve anything to make the work more intuitive? literally the worst UI of any DCC

>wake up
>try to model
>fail
>don't improve
how do I get into the do- fail - learn - improve spiral and out of the do - fail - do loop?

I dunno

why are they always hiring?

is it a shitshow to work over there?

I had the idea of a 3D renderer that projects a 2D cutout rig into a 3D space, but sort of minimizes the X rotation and keeps everything looking like the 2D drawings, but the lighting and animation is done using a low poly model.

Only that the 3D mesh is used to project the 2D planes vertex to the 3D mesh, but do the foreshortening as X and Y operations, to minimize the rotation distortion that rotating a plane will have.

And use the 3D low poly mesh as normal map information to draw the toon shadows on the 2D sprites.

Maybe have an library of 2D shapes to automatically switch based on angle to the camera.

In this thread I will be making a character jump.
Even if it kills me.

Can we get some filter analysis? After replaying some old games, including RE5, MGS2/3, NFSMW, etc I found them quite useful to hide the uncanny ambient lighting. Even in GTA SA the orange PS2 tint enables you to see the game as its own pocket universe instead of a game that is trying to emulating reality.

rate my cosmetic bottle, made from scratch you schmucks ( 5 hours of editing to make it as realistic as possible and they didn't hire me)

is EMV engine hard to setup, or am i just retarded?

Is there a term for DOA6 style hair/materials that aren't realistic and looks gorgeous? The shading on clothes are simple yet looks intricate.

I come with a heavy question, I come with hunger for answers.

I tried making fortnite 3D blender porn a year ago, I never got better, I never got better. I want to present the evidence of lack of progress as well as present the works of others, current day, that are performing better works. Could it be proof of talent?

is this program worth anything? I am primarily going to decide between it and blender. I am a complete permabeg. Any thoughts? not a single person on /v/ or /vg/ or /3/ has ever talked about it afaik.

How do I make money by making roblox costumes?

Rate my 3ds Max render. Am I ready enough for a position in the animation industry?

Support for Filament has been added to MacOS version as well as filatoon.

Some anon created a cool character morph. Meet Quinn! https://mega(.)nz/file/rmZQWLKZ#lh4aluWj6drjfPLkW7FVAUVDaOZZqJfqjoAvsREDo7U

Post more Quinns!

Cinema 4D R9 is nice.

Meanwhile you fags keep argueing about autodesk vs blender and coomer AI taking blender jobs, I keep improving my skills.

Ok, lads.
Does Blender 4.5+ have the ability to do this yet?

The image explains it better than a paragraph could.
Where you can have an object in edit mode without curve modifier applied, and be able to see the edited changes on duplicate or instanced object positioned elsewhere under a visible curve modifier.

Something with clones parented to empties maybe?

If not, can Maya do it? I can buy a license for Maya if so. And please no Mava Vs Blender thread, I don't care anymore. Just want to make shit effectively. Will probably end up setting blender's control scheme to Maya and use both for which ever needs either program excels better with.

how the hell do i get the calligraphy line style to work on blender?
been trying to do it but it's not working.

welcome back

mathemathically or draftingly speaking, how do you suppose to, redraw an object in another angle, or direction, maybe based on a single ,2d image of said object? basically like turntable but maybe more, back to basic, like in the age of akira or whatnot.

Need suggestion to learn, animating stuffs? basically handdrawn but i guess realism is in 3d too. Maybe like a big resource, or just, ...plans to run for, 600k yearly profit/income. Like how much, and what to do for those kind of...schedule, employment. Or just minimum expected portofolio to get hired just about anywhere decent. maybe above 50k yearly?

Anyone using Marvelous Designer here can tell me why my clothing looks kind of ass?

I was following a tutorial but it turned out quite different somehow. I am using the trial version if that could be the reason?

I did it chuds.

I was able to figure out a cheap workflow without AI that produces high quality assets.

:D

Amateur 2D artist here. I want to start learning 3D properly.

Other than pic related, I mainly do abstract pieces that don't make a lot of sense.
