Animated Conveyer Belt Tutorial Blender 3.0 [Make Your Own Short Film Part 10]

[@Unit856]

Wow. This is almost exactly what I needed for a render I started working on this morning, except instead of a conveyor belt, they were tank treads. Thanks for throwing this up!

[@CBaileyFilm]

You're welcome!

[@Literal32]

Weird how that happens haha so fortuitous

[@aidanfordsword6954]

These tutorials are so helpful for noobs like me! I originally thought that these wouldnt be useful for me, but you show so many tips and tricks along the way, while explaining everything in great detail!

[@CBaileyFilm]

I'm so glad! That's exactly what I hope to do in every tutorial! Thanks for watching it :-)

[@FilmSpook]

EXCELLENT!!! Thanks for everything, my Friend, you are Super Awesome. Much Love, Bro.

[@Ryxbar]

I love that you work so fast but never fail to mention each important step and key you're using. This is wonderful for beginner-intermediate users I think :3

[@MusicalGeniusBar]

Btw I set my - key to turn on and off overlays, and = to lock camera to view, it’s a game changer

[@MRUStudios]

I love your videos! Your Blender tutorials are always top tier. I've learned so much by watching them. I appreciate all of the hard work and effort you put into creating these. I hope you and you family had a great New Year and I wish all of us a fantastic 2022! WOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! 😃

[@CBaileyFilm]

Thanks so much MRU Studios!!!! That's so kind of you. Hope you and your family have a great 2022 as well!

I wish the empirical value you mention at @ 25:00 was easier to calculate. It has something to do with the scale of the texture on the belt. UV unwrapping the belt is where the problem begins.

[@jamesriley5057]

Edit: Use an ortho camera and "UV project from view" the ortho scale with help you with the conversion factor of linear speed to UV speed

[@Quantumshorts]

epic tutorial! your tutorials are very helpful! i am making a scifi game, and was new to blender when i started. your tutorials taught me how to make awsome blender scifi models!

[@Алексей-х6у8т]

I look forward to new videos about the animation of parts, mechanisms (animation of solid surfaces)

[@theslashr]

Thanks a lot for these tutorials Chris, they help immensely when dealing with different projects!

[@fyaboy]

you can essentially join points by doing some 3D cursor snapping stuff. When i do this on a curve modifier the object treats it like its joined even if it isnt technically

[@JosephHart-k2w]

Hey there! Amazing thank you so much for this! Any chance you have these assets up anywhere for sale? Its exactly what I need for my current project.

[@tjfixman5136]

Hey Chris, fantastic tutorial as usual (can't believe I am only now finding it). Question for you - When I created my empty and turned it into a driver for the belt, I found that its relationship with the texture map to be inverted (moving forward makes the belt go backwards). Any idea what I am doing wrong and how I can fix it? Thanks!

[@salvatoreandreatta5666]

Thanks you so much! greatings from Argentina.

[@b.f.5705]

Very beautiful video. I like to look at them, they are very inspiring. Keep it up, greetings from Germany. 👍👍

[@CBaileyFilm]

Thank you B.F.!

[@robertYoutub]

you could take the length of the curve for the calculation of the driver.

[@CBaileyFilm]

Genius! That's a great idea!

[@RogerWaggener]

9:39-10:33 why do it the hard, messy way? Use the spin tool for a nice, circular job.

[@CBaileyFilm]

Ha! nice one, yes that would have been waaaay better.

[@zaks7]

This is along the X or Y axis, which is fine, but suppose i want belts in my scene in different alignments, would it still be a good approach? I saw in your other tutorial that you had the rest of the belts all lined up in the same axis. Thank you for the wonderful tutorial btw, i learned a lot!

[@_evildoer]

That original shape can be created many times faster by just taking the default cube, stretching it long, delete two sides, then bevel the edges round

[@CBaileyFilm]

I knew my brain wasn't doing it the fast way! That's a great idea, why did I use a curve?

[@RohitVerma-ij9do]

26:01 How did you make that realistic view ? Can you please teach us ?

[@MusicalGeniusBar]

Can someone make an add on that can have an object seam library, so when you click on a seam in the library it automatically picks the seam lines on the object

[@CBaileyFilm]

That would be epic

[@sambabassesoumare798]

Fantastique.

[@ABMultimediaDesigner]

Is there a way to export this to Unity or Unreal?

[@nihaldaita6756]

I think shortcut for closing curves is Alt + C, not reallly sure about the shortcut but the option is Toggle Cyclic

[@CBaileyFilm]

thanks Nihal! I knew someone would figure it out.

I tried to watch the video but advertisements kept happening so I gave it a thumbs down.
