Blender Bob 🔶

So! Launching my game company! I created a new account. Please follow! I need followers! Yes, Blender is heavily used in it, so is Affinity Photo. #b3d x.com/JungleOfSharks…

Here's another cool one! #b3d youtu.be/ZQyP3CYkh9o

@tinkerboi2024 It’s a shot manager, like flow/shotgun or ftrack. Allows you to review shots, post comments, assigned people to shots etc.

@robertrioux What is this kitsu publisher thing?

An now I just created a kitsu publisher for Resolve! #resolve #kitsu github.com/riouxr/BB-KIts…

@slimboTweet That’s probably going to be too advanced for an introductory course

@robertrioux Geo-nodes for animation. I've only used them a bit for crowd scenes. Unfortunately the timing of animation for each instance cannot be offset, but if you have 10 or 15 characters with unique animations it's pretty effective. Maybe you got some good tips.

I will have to give a 3 hours geo-nodes introduction course. I need ideas for simple projects besides the basic spreading trees and rocks on a field. Suggestions? #b3d

@StephenJHibberd I’ll take a closer look

@robertrioux TikManager4 also supports Kitsu! What I find to be better with Tik is that all software types are supported from the one interface.

Woohahahahahaha! I added a browser to my Resolve Kitsu publisher. And you can assign an exisiting Resolve project. It will make a copy so it won't touch the original. It will also auto detect if your current project is a Kitsu one. Pretty cool! For now the ouput path is hard coded for my pipeline but maybe I will modify it if someone needs it. #resolve #kitsu github.com/riouxr/BB-KIts…

Looks interesting but I will stick with Prizm as it's integrated with Kitsu. It think Tik is more like Prizm than Kitsu. Tik and prism are file manager but Kitsu is a project manager with review tools. Kitsu doesn't handle files. Prizm doesn't allow reviews. Well, it does but not a the same level

@robertrioux Take a look at TikManager4 for another project manager.

@lucianomunoz_ I needed a sys admin from the company to make mine run. Can't help you on that.

@robertrioux I still can't get kitsu to run in my server :/

@alexabelonix I also just released a Resolve Kitsu publisher. github.com/riouxr/BB-KIts…

@alexabelonix I have no merits. Claude.ai. Like all my Blender addons. I'm not going to pretend something I'm not :-)

I just created a Kitsu standalone publisher. #kitsu github.com/riouxr/BB-Kits…

@Blender Oh I wish I could! So much!

@andrewpprice Keynote

What's the best slideshow presenter that can show videos embedded in slides with no lag or playback issues? Google slides and Office still have issues.

@BartekMoniewski Shame!

Dude is so used to AI theft he pirated Blender.

@thorn_neverwake Well, it worked.

@robertrioux What the. Hell. Is that nonsense answer. Stop talking to the chat bot and spend a bit of time with Eevee shader basics...

I'm absolutely incapable of making a material for the cornea to work in both Cycles and Eevee. It's like Eevee won't see the eyeball inside the cornea. I want to do my fast layouts in Eevee but final render in Cycles #b3d @gleb_alexandrov you're the Eevee Master Jedi. Any ideas?

@adrparkinson @gleb_alexandrov Yeah, that's what I ended up doing and using a lightpath node afs factor in a mix node. The solution proposed by chetGPT

@robertrioux @gleb_alexandrov If it's just for previewing, then maybe having two node trees, one for Cycles and one for EEVEE, would be the best option.

@adrparkinson @gleb_alexandrov I use Eevee jut for the playbast, for animation testing and approval. It doesn't have to be perfect. I just don't want chome eyes.

@robertrioux @gleb_alexandrov I've always just done a transparent shader with just a hint of glossiness mixed in. Of course, that's for a less realistic look. If you want some proper refraction, I'm not entirely sure what to do since EEVEE isn't great at that.
