The topology is insane 👏👏👏

[@Glyc01]

Блендер все круче и круче становится . Автор - мастер ! Долгих лет процветания !

[@1DInciner]

+Anton79S Спасибо :-J

[@vitaly9]

you are really good in topology. and this not about triangles or ngons. It's the way you are thinking.

[@vitaly9]

and about not existing triangles and ngons :D

[@exitspree]

Playing this at 0.25 speed has answered alot of my questions about clean topology and edge loop flow. Also the drum and bass is amazing and your model looks beautiful! Thanks so much!

[@1DInciner]

Yep, I was supposed to be used like this) You are welcome!

[@ulmerkott]

Stayed for the music. :)

[@1DInciner]

+OfficerChrister My plan worked perfectly =)

[@alamondefield2823]

Holy sweet Beezlejesus thats awesomesauce. I can't sit still got all exciting and 1/4 of the way through I leaft it playing and opened Blender. HELLZYA nice work.

[@andrespastas1578]

Idolo, eres un crack amigo

[@RomboutVersluijs]

i call it retopofesh ;) EPIC man

[@victorsoul2328]

I'm speechless.

[@spiritwolf5792]

You're impressive!

[@1DInciner]

Thank you! We're working on it.

[@Kcimor78]

Damn, thats so hard. I thought you were gonna use your typical style and brainstorm that thing :) Never seen anyone use your style tbh, thats a good thing, ur "original", i guess

[@李飛飛大燒B]

You are amazing!

[@justauserru]

Not sure if a manual retopology makes sense here. You could probably have used Quad Remesher which produces pretty clean results in a matter of seconds. Normally, you don't need an animation-friendly topology when you deal with static archviz models.

[@1DInciner]

The problem is that all those remeshers doesnot support variable density meshes, so their results are too heavy, and they don't preserve detalization. We will wait for appropriable remesher tool in 2025.

[@justauserru]

@@1DInciner You're possibly talking about Voxel/Quad Remesh. Forget this half-assed crap. It's only useful for sculpting. Quad Remesher is dope. It's a very capable add-on. It's smart enough to place edge loops nicely so that details get preserved well. I believe you'd still need to tweak it by hand here and there afterwards. But at least that's not like doing it from scratch anyway. We're definitely not quite there yet, but there are retopo tools in the making and I'm pretty sure it'll happen long before it hits 2025. Gotta be optimistic and patient (:

[@1DInciner]

@@justauserru yes, I know about qr addon. But such videos have another purpose - it is a workflow test. The problem is that it is impossible to say if your manual retopology workflow approach is good without analyzing mistakes that are made when you are physically exhausted. As you may know, there are a lot of handy looking manual retopology solutions, that was never tested in such conditions. Yes, it is a hard way of workflow testing, but for us it is necessary to know how much endurance it preserve, and what actual limits it allow. It is just a part of a proper workflow design process.

[@justauserru]

@@1DInciner I really like your workflow. Just wondering what part you find the hardest when doing retopology and what particular tool you wish currently existed to help achieve the result you're after quicker, basically any idea that could speed things up significantly but not currently implemented by developers. Thanks, really enjoyed watching your timelapses, wish you posted more often. Keep up the good work!

[@HARDstone3d]

You are real hardcore man-blenderhead-CGWarrior! So much work. I hate retopology)

[@DominikMorse]

This is so.... WOW.

[@K2theweim]

this is awesome

[@graphics_travelers]

Are you gonna show us how we could use the RetopoFlow as effectively as possible? Nice skills by the way.

[@1DInciner]

+MediumSolid Instalement Well, I made video about F2 because I'm concept desigher of this tool, that come to Bartius Crouch, asked him to write such tool and supported it`s development. I don`t have any allies to RetopoFlow development, except a bit financial support in the begining. They made a cool and awesome progress here I`m interested in, however, I failed to retopo surfaces like this via RetopoFlow, also its modeling mode is still a concept, so I prefer to use F2 yet. My next video can be about 1D_Scipts or Bargool_1D_Tools - a stuff which concept design entirely belongs to me , or Mira Tools, that was partially supported by me. I think Jonathan Williamson will made a new video about RetopoFlow with pleasure, if to ask him ;)

[@graphics_travelers]

1D_Inc Glad you've updated me with useful information. I only wanted to see you model with the RetopoFlow because you always seem to model some very detailed models. So I was interested to see you do it. But I understand, and also, the F2 add-on is great, keep up the good work.

[@1DInciner]

+MediumSolid Instalement ^_^

[@SimoneBattaglia94]

Jawdropping

[@cihankenar1]

My question is, when would you need to retopologise in this way? Would you use this process in creating realtime assets? Baking a complex mesh as a normal map onto a simplified model.

[@1DInciner]

I make retopo for any product that I made by sculpting. As far as preparing products this way takes x3 times longer, I use sculpting just in extreme cases, such as dead quality of refrence images.

[@BobDuffy]

Retopo is needed on any sculpted or scanned mesh to be used in a game software or to be animated. This however has enormous detail even after the retopology. A lower topology could work with baked normal and displacement map, but I suspect the desire here by the artist is to demonstrate a very skilled technique that gives you details where you need or want something of higher detail perhaps for 3d printing, film or other need

[@parusmajor9100]

Здравствуйте! В предыдущих видео у вас были "подсказки" с кнопками, которые нажимались. А вот здесь уж нет. А зря!

[@1DInciner]

Это потому, что видео отображает рабочий процесс F2 и сочетания кнопок GERS, и подсказки по всему видео выглядели бы как F F F F F F F F F F F F G F F F F F R F F

[@parusmajor9100]

За ответ вам благодарен Просто есть видео не только от русскоязычных пользователей, но и от буржуинов. Зато благодаря им , имеется в виду буквицам, проще понять происходящее. Вам в любом случае отдельная и тёплая благодарность за проделанную работу. Есть интересные приёмы и вижу, куда самому идти. Это очень даже неплохо. А буквы кстати, отображаются и как 12F G 4F R 2F. Это вы и так в курсе.

[@MichaelPeterDalsgaard]

How do you make it follow so smoothly along the original surface? Not once did i see the new surface crossing over the original. 😅

[@1DInciner]

It is just full face (face snap with all buttons enabled) + Xray display mode I setting snap at this moment kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnOypqePZbV0sMU

[@elenagasperanova82]

My question is, just by watching the initial few moments, it seems as if your E-Face/Vert Duplication follows along/mimicks the surface, am I right? Or is it just my perception?

[@1DInciner]

Correct)

[@cekuhnen]

Where did you get some of those nice 8bit old school game sound tracks from?

[@1DInciner]

Claas Kuhnen well, I was collecting them for a pretty long time, from different sources, trying to get copyright free so this video doesnot contain ads. I thing I love this style because I'm a LISP programmer. Here is my best themes/authors list, that deserves to be heared: 1) Romeo Knight - Beat to the pulp (true Amiga demoscene) 2) Pocketmaster - Joggers in the park/ Crunch/ most of themes 3) Danny Baranovsky (SuperMeatBoy OST) - stage themes with chiptune covers 4) Howard Drossin (Comix Zone OST) - with his instrumental rock and singed covers 5) Earthworm Jim (special edition) - covers on Sega mega drive originals 6) Different indie games from Steam (Edge, Rush, FEZ) 7) Jurassic Park [NES] (Jonathan Dunn 1993) - any theme 8) Shinobi III (Sega Genesis) - any theme 8) Vim! - No 9) Different Soundcloud authors ______________________________ 10) RecursiveLemming - Chiptune compilation - 282 themes where 10-15 are good enough (such as Subject - Gatecrashing_4, Rez_and_Kenet - Unreeeal_superhero_3 or JosSs - F*ck da rippr) I listen for quite wide range of music, from Kraftwerk and Pole to Aphex Twin and Jakub Nox Ambroziak

What are you doing with UVs at 1:10:10?)

[@jesus650rwc]

mind sharing the model to test on my instant retopology addon?

[@1DInciner]

+AFX LAB Retopo result is available at blenswap (link for download can be found in video's description) I will share base sculpt if I will found it.

[@ضياءاليوسف-ل9ق]

i have one question for you. how do you get the will power to stick to one project for this amount of time? i have countless projects i want to finish but it's very hard to be persistent.

[@JoryRFerrell]

+wew 1. Start projects you really love thinking about. 2. Look up tons of material to keep introducing new ideas about the same project, to help keep the project feeling fresh and new in your mind...

[@ВладимирБобровский-ж9р]

У меня почему-то при нажатии F созданная вершина не "липнет" к высокополигональной модели, приходится ее G и приземлять. Или на видео включена функция "grab"? но тогда ж всеравно нужно еще кликнуть ЛКМ чтобы она прилипла к поверхности... Не получается ли как-нибудь сделать чтобы при нажатии F созданая вершина сама прилипала к поверхности и ненужно было ее еще раз "G"?

[@1DInciner]

Владимир Бобровский Странно, что пропустил этот комментарий. Есть галочка AutoGrab в настройках аддона (File - User Preferences - addons)

[@grgbpm]

this retopo is not too stretched??

[@aceman11100]

Gosh I hate retopology, its so tedious, but hot damn you did great on this

[@1DInciner]

Thank you! I've ordered tools especially for this)

[@aceman11100]

does it make it a lot easier? I'd be really cool to find something to make retopology go a little smoother
