Retopology in Blender - Speed Retopo Addon

I kind of feel that I don't want to do any retopology and that it's just a waste of time. But I know better. So anything that can both speed it up and also have the tools to make it look good is what I'm looking for. I will try this addon. Thank you for a very good introduction and guide.

[@JamieDunbar]

You don’t always need to retopologise. The point of retopology is to prepare the model for animation, as really dense meshes don’t animate well. But if you’re only planning on sculpting, and not rigging or animating, you don’t always need to retopo. Check out my Spyro or Yoshi sculpting videos to see what I mean. That said it’s good practice, so I definitely encourage you to do it!

[@tuulikk9193]

@@JamieDunbar I don't know about animation, but I think I want to do some posing and even facial expressions on some sculpts. But I guess I will be selective. I will look into your suggestion. I have been trying to make body base meshes of subdivided cubes that I have created by duplicating, scaling, rotating and sculpting. But the parts and details don't fit so good together when I try to sculpt over it. I almost want to retopo the bodies for better face flow. I have so much to learn. Thank you for your answer!

[@JamieDunbar]

For simple posing you can probably get away with automatic retopology (like the remesh tool). But if you’re still a beginner I’d recommend doing the retopology. These automatic methods are kind of cheats, and it’s only with experience you learn when you can and can’t cheat.

I'm having a lot of issue with the keymappings in blender 3.3.1, windows 11. What's the new way to bring up the "shift right-click" menu?

[@JamieDunbar]

Hey Ethan. It's been a while since I made this tutorial, but I think even back in 2.9 the keymappings clashed. When you shift/right-click, is it moving the 3D cursor? I just tested in Blender 3.2, and as long as you enable the "SPEEDRETOPO" keymap, it seems to override the 3D cursor keymap and looks like it's still working as expected. Do a search for "shift right mouse" in the Keymap preferences. It should stand out, as it's all in CAPS. But it's under the '3D view generic'. Let me know if you have issues. This would be much easier to explain with a screenshot.

Just what I was looking for. Thanks, very informative. :) Guess my only question is, what to do after retopologizing? Do I actually apply the shrinkwrap and subsurface modifiers? 'Cause, when I apply the latter, it adds hundreds of vertices... :/

You’ll probably want to bake either a normal map (for games) or a displacement map (for film). I’ve got a couple of tutorials for both of those: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGPUaKKQgdhjfac kzbin.info/www/bejne/foHJonxuoadoh5I

i have a question on my model the arms show that is it covered but when i hit tab to see how it looks a good sized section is like in the arm and also when i look at how the final model will look like it adds lines going through it but there not then when i edit? can you help me

[@JamieDunbar]

Heya Untrollable. Most modifiers have an "edit mode" toggle next to the display toggle. This toggle allows you to enable or disable the modifier when you're in edit mode. Presumably if you're going into edit mode and your model is changing, you have this disabled. Enable it and your model should stop moving when you tab in and out. Reopology in Blender can be a bit flaky at times, so I recommend applying your shrinkwrap modifier periodically and recreating it, which Speed Retopo can do automatically for you.

[@melbendigo]

In the testing phase at the end of the video, my final mesh is showing little black spots along all the creases and smaller details, and it it's breaking up. Does anyone know what causes this or how to fix it? I'm googling around about it, but so far can't find an answer. I subdivided the surface more, but it's still there. Thank you for any help!

Your vids are amazing ty

[@JamieDunbar]

Thanks mate. Feeling the love!

[@Kiyamlol]

when i control click it moves vertices nearby...how do i stop thjat?

[@JamieDunbar]

Heya Kiyamlol. There's a couple of different things that might be. The most common is simply that the shrinkwrap modifier isn't that accurate in Blender. It does some guessing, so when you add another vertex, it 'guesses' again which can shift the vertices around it. The best way around this I've found is to simply apply your modifiers (which locks them in place, no more guessing) and recreate them. It's been a little while, but I'm pretty sure Speed Retopo has a tool that does all this automatically for you. Which is great, because I usually have to do it a couple of times per model.

[@cuascuarascuasyio2588]

Its no longer free ;-; but it was a great tutorial

Hello, can you please write here what pie menu is using here? I want to change with the moving pivot in the preferences but there is so much Pie menus :D

Hey DrageaMoonglare. Do you mean the menu where you can change the pivot point? Some of the options are 'median point', '3D cursor', 'individual origins', etc.? I'm pretty sure that one is standard with Blender, so you shouldn't need to enable any addons. Full stop (.) is the keyboard shortcut.

[@ghostking8901]

[@JamieDunbar]

Hi Escanor. I haven’t tested it, but I’d assume yes - you’d want to have your transforms applied for each object. It’s the only thing I can think of that would break the align to x feature.

[@escanor8696]

@@JamieDunbar yeah got it thanks... If it's ok is it good to initially seperate body parts and retopologize and in the end join together. While doing like that is it ok if the number of vertices in the neck and body is not equal? Can it cause any further problem while animating?

[@JamieDunbar]

I often retopologise sections of the body (for example, I’ll often do the body first and keep it really low poly, then do the face, then try and join them and add extra edge loops as needed). There’s nothing wrong with the neck and the body having different vertex numbers to begin with, but eventually you’ll have to make them the same number so you can join them properly. If your faces have more than 4 vertices it will probably cause problems while animating.

how does one turn off that shift click menu? it's highly annoying when trying to select 2 verts

[@JamieDunbar]

Not sure I understand why the menu is conflicting. You use "shift + right click" to bring up the menu, and "shift + left click" to select. If you really need to turn it off though, you can find it under the addon preferences. Specifically under "keymaps".

[@JamieDunbar]

Hi Michaela. Objects or characters that are asymmetrical are always more tricky. Usually I model them as much as I can using a mirror modifier, then apply the modifier and model the asymmetrical parts manually. It takes more time and can be a pain when rigging (as you’ll need to paint your weights the same way - do as much as possible with symmetry on before fixing the asymmetrical parts manually) but it’s really the only way to do it.

Its quicker to disable shrinkwrap, extrude a section if cylindrical, enable it back on, smooth vertices by disabling and then enabling the shrinkwrap (u can use the sculpt smooth for this), and its done...
