Hey guys!
I've got a motion design course that I have to use c4d for. I'm used to maya and know next to nothing about c4d.
Are there any plugins you guys would recommend?
only download plugins when you need them

This. Stop looking for solutions to problems you don't have.
>>510095
>>510097
Isn't the entire point of a plugin to either improve a certain aspect of the program or add more features?
I don't see how this is looking for a solution to a problem I don't have. There could be a plugin that makes a certain task you perform repeatedly easier or provides better results consistently.
Why not use something like that if it's available? I obviously intend on learning the basics of the program despite what might...

Hello there, I've edited my video, I've changed lights, camera and quality. What do you think, did I improve ?

Go back to your containment thread.
I started studying 3ds Max since last year. But I have no clue how to make a render like this. (e.g: Arpeggio Ars Nova, Bubuki Buranki, etc)
I have a story for a short animation, but i want to make it with this style.
Any of you knows?

Look up toon rendering. Both for the shadows and toon lines.

Opinions?

Nothing new. Creates unusable topology.
Only potent use could be to block out.

It will help drop the price of 3d scanners
When you run Blender for the first time. But later you can work with closed eyes.

That's why I love how shortcut-oriented it is.
I could use the Japanese version perfectly fine if I had to.
Is it easier to produce Cambodian basket-weaving cartoons when you set Blender to Chinese?
>>505959
Personally I make squinty eyes when I use Blender now.
mayafag who also dabs in blender. im quite impressed by the guys work.
how can i get my own cgi up to par with his?
>inb4 practice
seriously, what lighting tricks and texturing tricks does he use?
The render they get from their 3D program of choice looks nowhere nearly as good as those pictures. Heavy compositing applied.
can we make a thread for obscure, old and outdated modeling suits?

My first model editor was 3d GameStudio.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamestudio
I believe 1999 or 2000 edition. I dont believe anyone ever made anything good with this gamecreator suit(probably because there werent loads of video tutorials and resources for everything back then and learning just by reading a telephone-book manual is not that great)

So, i´ve been working on trying to create realistic ice cubes just because i wanted to, i´ve found only 1 tutorial on it and it wasn´t even a proper tutorial, rather a overview of the guy doing the ice cube on Blender.
So after many days of trial and error, i´ve god this result, and to be fair, it doesn´t look nearly as good as i´ve seen on Google Images, so i want to take a few suggestions on how could i improve on it.
Just remember it isn´t a game or animation asset, im not looking for low poly, and i certainly do not care about render times, i just want...

idk if this is the tutorial you're talking about, if it isn't that might help you.

What does /3/ do with their 3d models?
Anything interesting?
(Pic unrelated)
I make them fight each other, if possible. Try it.
porn. all day every day
I 3d print and jack-off on them
PLEASE -kind hearted person that you are - point me in the direction of learning how to create media like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ow8IBxjlHa0.
Which program would you recommend for this type of media. Forgive me.
blender

I had maya 2015 on my computer, but i unistalled it, Now that i try to reinstall, it only installs plugins (direct connect, mental ray, etc.), not the main program itself, because it says that's already installed, despite uninstalling the program, and clearing the leftover files as well.
I downloaded several copies of the installers, but none of them succeeded. What should i do now?
inb4 install install install
First, make sure you are downloading the latest service pack from Autodesk. Second, need to know what platform you are on, there are loads of files scattered all over that you need to clean up.
https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/maya/downloads/caas/downloads/content/autodesk-maya-2015-service-pack-6.html
windows 7 64-bit
I alrady run service pack 6, but it couldn't validate files, and said that there was a problem with the installer. Strangely, the installer didn't show any errors, i even checked the logs.
>>510617
I do know that SP6 on windows requires a working install of 2015 SP5 or older, right? The windows file is an updater as opposed to a complete installer like on Mac/Linux. That may be your file validation problem if you installed and then tried to run the SP6 installer. I am also reading that AV can cause issues with the downloaded file becoming corrupted, so you may want to verify that you have temporarily disabled AV while downloading the files you need from Autodesk. see

They tried so hard.
Isn't this the intermediate form? You should at least post full male or full female.

Are you questioning the accuracy of our medical laser scans?
Lets have a thread for questions relating to things in reality we want to model but don't know the name of. Take my example:
I want to model pic related, but I'm having trouble with the swirly part. I looked up pillar swirl and column swirl and nothing relating to what I wanted popped up, so I would like to know if any of the builders of /3/ could answer my question: whats the swirl of the pillar head called and is there a good tutorial on making a decorative pillar head?
m8 jst use teh bend modifier i swear its the easiest thing u cheeky cunt
Anon just wait, I'll blow your fucking mind

Hi /3/
Maya 2015 user here. rendering with mental ray. Trying to make this skull look like its in the geometry which has a background shader, so i can render shadows. You can see the geometry which is sort of reflecting my HDRI. I do not want this reflection! I have turned off "visible in relflections and refractions" in the render stats. so what am i missing here? why are there reflections of my HDRI? thnx if any1 can help <3
shameless self bump
>>510496
lel, no need to bump for a month on /3/. Your post is not going anywhere.
