Would it be a good idea to mix Extrusion with Boolean? New tool I've been working on 🙂 #b3d

完成まで動かないでって言ったのに… #3DCG

@jwtstone Let's do it! :)

@ZaedDB I am considering the design of the remeshing algo. I also have to consider the integrity of mesh topo across frames. We can discuss details in BlenderChat, if you're interested.

Real-time, GPU-driven, 3D Contour Curves, both visible & hidden lines. Once I couple this with contour-adaptive remeshing and my old 2D contour curve algorithm, this will be the most powerful lineart renderer ever existed.

@jwtstone I'm not sure that the remesh algorithm will suit itself well for GPU compute. The original paper states that their intention was to have it run on the GPU, but they ran into many unsolvable corner cases. So they went for a sequential approach instead. I would love to discuss it!

@ZaedDB This shows 3D curves on the mesh, with or without occluded parts. However, the actual curve shape is still not perfect even on a densely subdivided mesh. I'm planning to do GPU remeshing like the smooth contour paper you ported before.

現在研究中のアニメ背景風3Dモデルにカメラワークを付けてみた様子、 今日明日でレンダリング＆コンポジット予定！！！ #blender #3DCG

@HotdogNugget Awesome! I see that there is already someone that has opened up a PR to fix it as well!

@ZaedDB I have! projects.blender.org/blender/blende…

Normal maps in blender have been bugging me for a while, and I finally know why! The normal map node actually applies normal maps incorrectly when the strength isn't set to 1. This causes some nasty artifacts which can be easily fixed with a custom nodegroup. ( 1 / 4 )

YEESSSSSSSS!!! 🥰🥰🥰

@HotdogNugget Have you reported this on the Blender bug tracker? Seems like you have a good reproduction file as well. Might not be fixed right away, but I think it is worth giving it a shot and see what they say.

(This setup also lets you easily invert the normal map by setting the strength to -1, not sure why the normal map node doesn't let you)

@Sreliata @Blender If the reading in .dds textures produces a garbled/incorrect image, then I don't believe that it is intentional. If you can create a simple test case and report it to the bug tracker, that would be great. Just a simple plane with a .dds texture that works in 3.5 is enough.

@Blender Absolutely fantastic!! That said, it appears blender 3.6 LTS has issues reading .dds textures. Models that worked fine in 3.5, won't look good in 3.6 for that very issue. Are you aware of that? Perhaps it was .. wanted, even?

Blender Foundation and the online developers community are proud to present Blender 3.6 LTS! Introducing Simulation Nodes, a new UV packing engine, performance improvements in Cycles and mesh editing, and so much more! blender.org/download/relea… #b3d #DevFund

Thanks to the suggestion of @lacapi_tv, I developed a new tool in my #greasepencil add-on that fills the line art based on color hint strokes. It is similar to Krita's Colorize Mask, but works on vectors. It can also be combined with existing tools like 3D mesh conversion. #b3d

過去４フレーム分情報を残しての残像エフェクト。 自分自身を引き延ばして、曲線状に変形するのは、頂点が足りなくて汚いことが分かったので、エフェクトとして。 （直線なら引き延ばしても良いのだけどね。曲線だとカックカクのガタガタに…）

Save the date! Blender Conference 2023 will be on 26-28 October, in Amsterdam NL. conference.blender.org/2023/ #b3d #blender3D #bconf #devfund

Blender 3.5 is released and I worked on the new hair node system! 🎉 Here are some clips of how using it looks like, watch the full overview video here: youtube.com/watch?v=_-d0Ha… Big shout-out, of course, to the rest of the #geometrynodes team and @3DBystedt 🙌 #b3d

@ChengduLittleA Hope you have a good birthday!

ITS MY BIRTHDAY!

Forgot about this quick test for some very extremely basic combat mechanics - it's almost like I need to hire more staff to ease my workload once we finally have funding *huge obvious wink* kickstarter.com/projects/hiber… #hibernaculum #horror #RPG #code #PCgame #DnD #dungeon #scifi

@ChengduLittleA Neat! It even uses LineArt to guide the direction and density of the oil painting strokes! :D

Alright then *Throws paintbrush*

Here are the Blender projects to look forward to in 2023! blender.org/development/pr… #b3d
