Don't let the AI voice scare you away, these are some great tuts if you are just starting with Spline. Good job peeps!

[@victorlin8307]

Feedback: Not sure if I missed something during video observation. 50:45 Path Animation: "Path" or the "Apple" part of this file initially only has 2 states for animation transitions. After deleting the event for "Path 2" or the "Leaf" part of this file, "Path"/"Apple" has 3 states for animation. After rewinding that portion multiple times, I still did not see when "State 2" was added to "Path"/"Apple" although "Path" was selected by the user after the event for "Path 2". So my question is: What were the state settings in "State 2" for "Path"/"Apple" at 52:00? I did not anticipate frustration at that point although most of this video is nicely thorough and clear so far. I understand that there is really no wrong way to go about this specific thing and it doesn't matter eventually, but I am just trying to ask questions.

"As intuitive as Figma..." Glad to see you have sense of humor. lol

[@DesignCodeTeam]

Having tried so many 3d softwares, we find it pretty intuitive. What part is difficult for you?

[@scottonanski4173]

@@DesignCodeTeam Oh, it's not the 3D I mind, it's Figma. lol Example: A 'mask' implies it 'covers' that which is behind it. Like wearing a 'mask'. In Figma, you put a mask BEHIND all the elements - which is flat out stupid. It's like putting a mask on the back of you head expecting people not see your face. lol At any rate, I love your content. I just thought it was funny to hear someone refer to Figma as 'intuitive'.

[@heretikpapy]

I used masks a lot before figma, in adobe fireworks. But im doomed since then. @@scottonanski4173

[@elpedomasgrande1]

@@scottonanski4173masking is an established principle across all 3D/Graphic/CAD-Software. I understand your view regarding the mask metaphor, regardless it is the norm to use it this way. It refers less to the analogy of wearing a “mask” and more like “masking” known from painting, where you block out parts by covering them, for instance, with masking tape, so it is actually quite close to that principle.

[@mbrworld4991]

Would I use it in free figma or should I buy the professional one or more..?

[@SteveKalinda]

you can tell the voice is AI generated, now maybe that's not an issue, but 13:27 - it's bevel not extrusion that's being adjusted to 10.

[@SXsoft99]

it's not that 3d is not cool but i think most developers forget that people still use old phones and laptops, and 3d will kill their GPU when I started web development 8 years back there was a course saying that your website needs to be reachable and interacted with even by people that have styles disabled lately i feel there is too much "flash" on my screen

[@Infinatummedia]

Flat sites are flat. You can fudge it a bit with absolutes, shadows, z-index, transforms and some react tricks, but at the end of the day all the content is physically fixed to a single plane. I don't know whether splines will help me get where I want to go, but I'm happy to try anything to stop being limited by that plane in my design. The current other contender is learning the whole stack for 3js or aframe

These AI voices are everywhere now, am I the only one that finds them uncomfortable and distracting?

[@DesignCodeTeam]

We believe this is a better experience. Most of our team isn't native English speakers (we're French). We have thick accent and it wouldn't be consistent across the whole video working as a team. So we picked the most natural AI voice using Eleven labs.

[@jonnysolaris]

​@@DesignCodeTeamI understand. It's a cheap and easy solution. Maybe I was asking about the big picture. Literally every other video has these, or the TikTok voices, they're a little creepy. The 'uncanny valley' for voices!

[@mustafahadi3613]

Very uncomfortable and most of the times i skip these videos even the shorts

[@amanjeetshrivastava1448]

​@@DesignCodeTeamyou did good❤️ but voice is a sharp pitchy, maybe that's making people uncomfortable.

[@vitalysuper3193]

@@DesignCodeTeamthe main problem is that youre using generated voice, you should use some fancy new ai tools either translate the video from your native language or generate it using newer tools so it sounds fluent

Please reupload this w normal human voice. AI voice weirding me out. The content is fun but voice is not. Just impossible to follow along

[@DesignCodeTeam]

To be fair, considering that some of our team don't speak as fluent English, perhaps the AI voice will be easier to understand. It doesn't take less effort, but we wanted to have a quality voice that's fluent.

[@petertelegdi3364]

3D is completely unnecessary if I'm looking for a hairdresser or buying a pizza. But it will still be if it looks good and the process and cost from design to product can be significantly reduced. And this one knows it. It is not "necessary" for every UI interface, but everyone is looking for what distinguishes their product from the rest. Now it will be 3D for a while, then in 6-8 years flat design or a retro rethink... but maybe in 10 years AI-generated animations etc. Art and aesthetics, it conveys feelings, thus it develops. As a transfer of information, it is unnecessary, could all web pages be plain text? Not because of UX.

[@UnbelievableHotdog]

I dont thunk you understand blender is completly free

[@JustPlainRob]

If Blender is too complicated for you to generate flat shaded simple geo like this you aren't skilled enough to be making 3D content at all. You talk about other apps being "costly" and then charge a subscription fee. Blender is totally free. Forever. And has better features. And is easily programmable yourself. With Python, a real programming language. This whole video sounds like an AI was fed a script and a bunch of clipart and screenshots to generate it automatically. It feels dead and generic and actively makes me dislike the product.
