I tend to become a perfectionist when watching tutorials. And then I mess something up, get discouraged, then procrastinate. I gotta stop doing that and just have fun with it. I'll try making more things on my own. Thanks for the motivation!

This is a great vid! I've fell into the trap of trying to first learn as much as possible about Blender before even starting...so I wasted a good year or so doing this without even trying to do anything and only doing tutorials, and only recently really tried to do something on my own.... So, I feel that this is great advice from your side. For anyone learning: just go for it. I would also perhaps add to the advice given in your vid, that it helps to define, as much as possible, what one wants to do with Blender. Meaning, if you want to do mographs, or animation, or environments, or characters, etc.... Blender tutorials on youtube are a rabbit hole that one can easily get lost in, and you'll end up watching vids on a subject that you probably won't be using in the near future :) Thanks for reading!

I learned Blender a while back but I did give up on it because I felt it was going no where. Been wanting to pick up where I left off without tutorials. My weakest point in Blender is understanding the nodes. I know the interface pretty good to navigate but those nodes is where I am having a hard time learning.
@TylerSerino3 жыл бұрын
If it makes you feel any better, I am definitely no master of material nodes either. I have definitely gotten better at them over the years, but when I watch someone like CG Matter putting together these insane procedural materials It becomes apparent that I still have a lot to learn. To be fair though, I don't focus as heavily on them even though I should. The point I'm making though is that you're not the only one and definitely shouldn't let it discourage you. Just keep trying and youll get there!

I'm having an issue with model importing, specifically Daisy (Mario) I've downloaded like 4 different Daisy models (from 4 different games) and every single one when it gets imported it just isn't there like at all; and it reads as an armature? idk what's up with that cause my other models actually load. Speaking of models I have no idea how to ad the textures. I've watched tutorials and only end off utterly, I'm not new to 3d animation I've been in a class before using Maya but Blender I just don't know what I'm doing at all
@vince26962 жыл бұрын
Ive been using blender for about a little over a year and i just can't for the life of me get out of the "beginner stage". I understand the concepts of art and whatnot but the software itself is whats holding me back, and now that geometry nodes are a commonplace and a near necessary tool and how complex they are it just seems to get harder and harder to make any progress in learning the software and i don't know how to overcome it. it doesn't help that there doesn't seem to be any one set way to learn it, at least not without paying an arm and a leg.

I dont think its gonna come quick but i have fun just thinking about learning so... I will! My expectation is that it could take me a year??? Maybe more or less, to get something i want to present.

Do you have a video on all the rendering functions and export settings? I just need to get my head around that completely, because I made a palm tree the other day, and when I exported it to fbx to import in unreal, the tree is white without it's textures, and the alpha clip that I used to do the palm leaves, were all solid meshes in unreal. Looked like a tree with rectangular leaves. Would be great ot just fully understand all the importing and exporting features. As well as a full study of rendering animation or stills. (For example, If you animate a dog running in Blender, will unreal pick up the animation automatically? )
@TylerSerino3 жыл бұрын
So if I'm being honest, with animations I do not have a lot of experience, but I do know that you can export them from blender to unreal. Now with your palm tree, what it sounds like is you're making the materials in blender, and they are not carrying over to unreal. Unfortunately, as far as I know, they typically don't. The node systems are not identical between the two. Typically, you'd create all of your textures and whatnot, and bring them into unreal and compile them into a material there. You'll want to look into setting up transparency in unreal, as well as some other best practices for create game ready materials - ie, texture packing. Hope this helps!

I mainly struggle with texturing any tips?
@TylerSerino3 жыл бұрын
Texturing is definitely something that has a lot of "moving parts" so to speak. You have to get an understanding of UV unwrapping, along with different methods for actually creating or obtaining the proper image textures. Personally, I have found that for authoring textures, the money spent on substance painter/designer is well worth it, otherwise cg geek has tutorials about capturing textures with a camera, and there are many tutorials on painting them in blender. When it comes to UVing, look into concepts such as texel density, and packing islands. There are a few plugins out there that make it easier. For normal/bump maps, youll want to look into baking form high poly to low poly. Hope this points you in the right direction!
