just use "how to * in maya, -blender " it removes anything that has blender in the title , blender cucks exploit youtube Search Engine Optimization for even get into other software searches

It’s a very rare used tool for mash and doesn’t exactly have a name. Seeing the video will explain more.

I don't exactly know what MASH is supposed to be (some auto generator for those pillars? "music bars"?), but you can definitely drive things with audio in Blender.
You simply bake the sound to an F-Curve. And use that to drive whatever you need. It won't automatically make a bunch of synced pillars, but there's ways you can do that that aren't very hard.
Speaking from personal experience, it's a bit shit to use a full song as the driver for animated elements in any software. Simply because you're using the entire thing and just amounts to visual noise. You don't really get any kind of separation between different instruments. It's much more interesting if you have individual tracks to drive things separately.
But at this point I think I'm going a bit off topic.

>>979934
i didnt read your guys' conversation but MASH is just one of the available built in add-ons that you can turn on in Maya with useful features for dynamics with better performance and instancing geometry in interesting ways that can stack like modifiers. its really easy to make the sort of junk that would be projected on a big screen while music is playing at a show or shit like that.

>>979939
Ah then yeah, I can't say other software has anything like that. At least as far as making something super fast that'd run at a show.
Geo Nodes maybe if you keep shit simple, or the extinct Blender Game Engine, but maybe I'm still kind of misinterpreting what it's for.
Still it sounds pretty neat.

>>980138
This. Before we got ourselves cucked by the Sarkessa of Flacidstan we where a lot hornier than any micro-dick eastern devs.
Some of you are to young to remember this but our videogames girls used to have like hips and boobs and clothes that shaped their body.
They didn't even look like minors but like actual babes and game magazines had adds that looked like pin-up's.

Kids grew up thirsting after actual adult women and they didn't even turn into furries or pedo-bears that often.

>>980139
That's exactly why the chinese government finances Diversity Equity and Inclusivity content. That's why they give money to teachers to present communism in a positive light to students and so on. It's a war out there my friend. It never ended.

>>980139
>Kids grew up thirsting after actual adult women and they didn't even turn into furries or pedo-bears that often.

I miss the 90's early 00s before unattainable hour-glass bodies got blamed for the worlds ill's.
The masses must realize how imprinting sexually on cartoon animals isn't an ideal situation and part of what brought us in this mess.

No young dudes seeing women in games back then would get the idea they could ever become one, our body frame can't support such a graceful figure.
The cock is a compass which provide a man his bearing in life, our diamond dongs would've pointed us straight if only they'd let them lead us the way.

Maybe we shouldn't have made it borderline pornographic because that was what made them come after us so successful and sell us the idea we had done something wrong.
Like Icarus we just flew too close to the sun and they burned our wings.

>>980138
I agree that there was characters that reflected all those ideas, they call them bygone era designs.
The uglification of characters comes from culture itself, but a culture outside videogames. That's why we desire to Go back to that time, because that infiltrated culture it's not ours.

>>980139
It's more than being horny, it's the idealistic representation of what a man sees as a powerful woman.
>They didn't even look like minors but like actual babes
Korean designs don't look like minors either, remember that Asians hold younger features than whites in general, so younger faces are common in adult women from that race.

>Kids grew up thirsting after actual adult women and they didn't even turn into furries or pedo-bears that often.
Mostly everyone is aware of this, except for some cultists of the extreme left.

>>980137
>Too gay for the west
Have you played the game the west does?
>Also consider how they are crazy with cosmetic surgery and shit over there
Early teens use lip filler in Europe.
cosmetic surgery it's a common thing in USA and Europe too. And big boobs are not a trend, we can discuss if there is a better way to enhance them now with fat injections...
>Real is never fashionable, but real never really goes out of fashion either.
Agree, but we are talking about beauty in videogames, if you look at actresses from the 40s., 60s. or 80s. They are still considered beautiful, even if your style is out of fashion.
Most humans like to look at beautiful people because they are rare, average it's just common.

wtf the g9 anatomy geografts are so bad. this unified mesh shit was such a mistake

>Pixv bans
You can't post DAZ content on pixiv?

>>980637
I assume they meant loli related trash

want to get into daz3d (or some other character modeling program), watched a few tutorials but still don't understand the overall usage, specifically when it comes to body types. Are you able to fully make your own body/character on your own WITHOUT dumping money in the asset store? Or are these programs inherently useless without heavy usage of an asset store. My initial thinking was that these programs were akin to a more advanced character creator from a video game, a body with dozens of sliders for reshaping various body sections and that bought characters are just easy ways to get to a specific body type WITHOUT tweaking every little customization, but at first glance that doesn't seem to be the case(?).

>>980663
Daz3D is worthless if you are unable to acquire assets.

they just 3d paint their textures and the uv can be any crazy nonsense as long as it's optimized.

>>979708
You're most likely looking at a ripped model that some poor soul had to piece together themselves after ripping it.

Plasticity is a big meme, but yeah, it's worth it

everything arrimus makes looks "off"

>>979644
Probably my favorite 3D software ever. Glad I have my perpetual license before they are eventually bought out by some megacorp and enshittified. 90% of what I used to do in blender I do in plasticity now, it’s been an actual hard surface game changer for me, and has made 3D modeling incredibly fun.

>I don't think that you are a sophist, I think that you are retarded

I'm a autodidact polymath with an IQ of 142. Socrates said 'To know thyself is the beginning of wisdom.'
People who know me would tell you I'd be the first one to admit I'm pretty retarded.

Checkmate anon I countered your argument thru verification, that was some 4D-chess shit and you have to view me as a sophist now.
For how could I have crafted such an argument if I didn't posses the blinding ingenuity of a true shitpost-poet?

You can call me pseud but would a 'pseud' really be able to craft this post? Yeah that's right anon, you don't believe that either
you recognize the fearsome intelligence looming behind the retarded text that just entered your skull straight thru your eyeballs.

>>979348
They all are nerd hobbies and nerds are the most likely to get brainwashed into becoming troons. Partly due to lack of being socially secure and partly because of autism

>'To know thyself is the beginning of wisdom.'
>People who know me would tell you I'd be the first one to admit I'm pretty retarded.
It's wise of you to admit that your post are retarded, I can't argue with that.
But your argument proves half of my point, and I quote >Don't worry anon I don't think that you are a sophist, I think that you are retarded.
Now I know that you are both.

>>979516
>Now I know that you are both.

I'm cool with that. Thanks anon, I would tip my fedora if I had one but I've always been a baseball cap kinda guy so I'll tip that one in it's place.

>>979517
You don't need to tip anything. But it was a pleasure to help you knowing yourself better.
Now when you are older and wiser you can tell that story to your grandchildren.

>>979678
You're completely right, but I've learned how to use it now, so I don't care.

It would be practical to start off in Blender and add the final details in Zbrush.

>>979715
why would that be practical?

>>979717
It sounds like I was advocating that as a superior workflow, but the point was that you should at the very least use ZBrush for the finder details, because it can handle higher polycounts and it has sculpting layers. My suggestion assumes that OP wants to use Blender to sculpt it, most likely due to being accustomed to it.

>>979212
One PNG per object? Sounds gay.

UV mapping is super easy in blender, just look at some 2 min tutorial and you are set. The MTL file has the UV in it and all the other PBR shit but obviously you are using some ancient grandpa aah engine for dementia patients with no PBR so figure out the rest on your own.

>>979213
Yeah dude. Let's watch 2 minutes tutorial on youtube and then work for 10 years to manually UV unwrap every single pebble in our scene. That'll teach those old people how WE do things. Yeah.

>>979212
Maybe you should not use Source Filmmaker and actually learn common 3D software that aren’t outdated or abandoned.

>>979584
No it doesn’t, the official website documentation for said code clearly says so: https://help.autodesk.com/cloudhelp/2024/ENU/Maya-Tech-Docs/Commands/undo.html

In case you’re still going to make up bullshit, Wikipedia also has an entire article telling you how it works: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queue_(abstract_data_type)

It’s over, you are crazy one here.

>>979583
You’re crazy, save state is save state, you know like saving current event. A different method then undo, redo and replace. You are going crazy over the concept of undoing 7 days work to bring back the cube. This is how the industry works, the boss demanded magic of undoing the problem then it should happen. You are never going to win this debate, you aren’t qualified to do such actions and put shame on the blander community.

>they thought removing the musgrave texture node was a good idea
WHY

>>979743
Because apparently you can emulate it using 15 other nodes.

>>979051
Getting my credit card to buy the addons right now! Thanks OP!

>>979744
I mean yeah you can technically emulate it with the way they merged it into the noise node which is cool but like fuck

rule number 1: if someone tells you to pirate (steal) and not use free resources, ignore them.

>>978903
What's the basis for this rule?

Are the paid resources not going to have at least a little more effort put into them?

>>978930
the youtube video creators are getting paid as well, by Google directly

>>978930
Honestly, there isn’t much of a need to pay for information on how to do this stuff since there’s so much information out there for free. Enough drawing, art, anatomy, etc. books have been published over the last century to the point where they’ve been pirated enough to practically be public domain, and it also helps that many of these books were written during a time where people actually knew what they were doing and weren’t just trying to grift or scam people. You can also learn how to use your program of choice by reading its official documentation, which is guaranteed to be free, since the developers actually want people to use the program, and it also has the benefit of not containing bad information.

Step-by-step tutorials are fine for beginners or on occasion because they condense a lot of information at a point where you still have everything in the world to learn, but you most certainly don’t need to pay a few hundred dollars for someone to tell you to push a bunch of buttons in a certain order.

To me, the difference between the two is like the difference between the guy who does “game design” and the guy who does programming, art, writing, and sound design, then puts them all together. They are essentially the same thing, but the latter has actually programmed outside of a game engine and actually understands how to work with data, which enables him make games with complex and nuanced mechanics. The first guy releases another platformer about depression every few months.

>>978930
also never learn from blender tutorial, watch a tutorial dedocated to a real software, then apply that in blender

>>978734
that actually sounds really handy
do you mind sharing what extension you used?

>>978713
for environment? unironically google maps street view. yeah the quality aint exactly HD but at least its 360 degrees and you have multiple point of view for reference. it is as "real life" environment as its gets. perhaps you can cleanup and upscale with AI and even take a few shots and do photogrammetry

Isn't it just being forced to be sold off to American companies to become domestically run doing the same thing it does?
Legislation is legitimized over fear for what the CCP are doing with the aggregated data of a lot of US citizens they have access to, not them brain-rot aspects.

>>978942
>Isn't it just being forced to be sold off to American companies to become domestically run doing the same thing it does?

no, the option is to either sell it or ban it. They wont sell it. They dont need the money. Its already banned in other countries

>>978940
No it's not.
