@user-yw5df1tr3i7 ай бұрын
Is there a way to cut to the center of a face? Say I have a quad and am making a new edge loop, I don't want to guess where the center of the face is, but want to make a cut right in the center - any way to do it easily? Otherwise, eyeballing it or making a perpendicular double center cut across works, but isn't efficient

Always worth watching basic videos as I never use the icons on the left and didn't know the bisect tool existed, big time saver along with all the other features I never knew about - thats the other problem, coming from other software!

I ended up here for another reason but the A key with angle is a great point. That's just saved me faffing around trying to zoom in to get enough precision to hit a particular angle. Awesome Justin!

hi justin , firstly i would like to thank you for your great work , clear explanations , and free lessons , you are my favorite blender teacher really , as a blender beginner i really understand how much efforts you made to reach such an advanced level . i would like to suggest something , after viewing your playlists i noticed that they are some how messed so i suggest to reorganise them , from tutorials for beginers about basic tools to beginers modeling to advanced modeling ...etc as a beginer i usually scroll down to the first playlist and start watching from there , i think all beginers do the same , but i found that your first playlist is modeling ...etc , i believe that reorganising the playlists will greatly enhance your channel. thank you for your hard work

My question is I’ve used the knife tool, I’m in cut through mode, I see the line going fully through the object but I can’t delete the cut off parts. I’m trying to make a T out of a rectangle for a mounting bracket, and I can’t delete the two small squares on each side. I’ve tried separation using selection, split, separate. All the tools that by name seem like they would do exactly what I need them to, but they do not apparently even with all the edges selected I need to remove. What am I doing wrong?

Is there a way to line up knife cut points with other knife cut points? The distance and angle readout's pretty cool, but it'd be nice to be able to line up a new knife vertex with an existing one in ortho view to make sure the shape that's cut is nice and neat.

I watch a lot of your tutorials and pick up a lot of information to help in most of my blender issues. Sometimes I miss a step in your tutorials and become frustrated with what happened . I have seen people displaying their tool movements down in the corner of the screen which is extremely helpful. I can't work out how you got out of knife mode and back to curser without loosing the the knife mode path.
@pauld.richardson5377 Жыл бұрын
Maybe this has already been asked... Every now and then I just can't get the knife tool to work. It won't snap to a vertex or a segment in order for me to start cutting. Other times it will snap to a point but as I continue clicking along a line I want to cut, the previous segments in my cut line disappear. I can't find any switches to toggle those features if they aren't just glitches.
@ahmetbaykara.mp32 ай бұрын
To cut a straight line (A) with the knife tool, we have to go to one of the 2D views. It's time-consuming to add custom loops or multiple straight cuts on an object in this way. I wish they would add this ability to the perspective or orthographic view at least.
@dantepowerrr Жыл бұрын
I came here thinking that the knife tool got changed in 3.3 because I can no longer get it to work properly. But apparently, it's not supposed to be different. Basically, when I try to cut a mesh the knife cuts through the mesh, cutting the back and side faces, but not the front face, which I wanted to cut in the first place. I don't know whats wrong with it, X-ray isn't on, normals are blue and its not my 1st time using the tool either, its a very useful tool that I used a lot in 2.8 and 2.9.

Thanks a lot for making showing the tricks. Would you please let me know how to use the knife tool to create vertex exactly at 2.2m distance from another vertex? I can see the distance and angle by hitting the S key but how to input 2.2m or a specific value to snap the vertex in that exact distance? Thanks a lot for the great work.

Which version did you use for Blender? Can't seem to find the bisect tool in the same place (version 3.6.0) and the one in mesh/bisect is acting quite weirdly (most likely as I am not selecting the initial side/plane it requires correctly)
@mikesuniverse1789 Жыл бұрын
one thing I figured out is that when you cut the square diagonal and create three sides you can just subdivide the diagonal edge and that creates the 4th vertex

Mr Man, you are extremely helpfull. I'm a 3d Studio Max user but want to use Blender, I know what the box modeling tools are and understand 3d modeling but where to find all those tools in Blender. Slice Plane is in 3dsmax and I was looking for that, but a straightening a loopcut deformes the model and is not an option. This straight knife cut in a fixed perspective is exactly what I needed. I'm writing my own little tutorial in case I forget something. Thanks for the videos!

Hey Justin! I want to make a chainsaw for my game but I'm struggling with chain animation can you make a tutorial about it that will be really helpful :)
@midtown3221 Жыл бұрын
I think the animation can essentially be a particle effect that goes around the shape which the actual chain goes around IRL. I'm just going off what I remember from being taught 3DS Max in college over 10 years ago and CG FastTrack's free tutorial that I finished the other day. It would be beneficial to examine pictures/videos of chainsaws and IRL. Nothing saying you can't animate the chain and teeth as a mesh instead of a particle effect. After all it would be easy to hide the end of the animation within the chainsaw itself. These are just my thoughts. I haven't tried this myself and not at the level of doing it yet. kzbin.info?search_query=blender+chainsaw+tutorial Have at it.
