What a god send you are sir!!, i've used 3ds Max since 2009 and was terrified to have to learn yet another piece of software as i'm soo comfortable with the 3ds Max. I'm just starting in the 3d printing world myself and have ordered a Bambu Lab P1P printer, so here starts my journey too. Clear and consise instructions and i like that you show the multiple ways to achieve the same results, this is great for the various workflows some people may have. I see you have OCD for keeping your modifier stack clear hahaha, i'm completely the opposite i like to have them there in case some tweaking is required. But to be fair the modifiers you used are a one time use really and not like cloth and others. Thanks again for this. You;re a star!!

@@christreedee Hey Chris, I just checked out HeroForge.com and seems real cool. I'm assuming they models are pretty dense then? Whats the file size of your .STL? If it's a "heavy" model then wait times are expected in any software and depends more on your PC's specs. Let me know.

@@JCobesV2 seems to be IMPORT settings, welds and what not not familiar on how a .STL 'SHOULD" be imported for minor editing, and they seem to triangle most things so i want to quad-mesh it back to make it easier..... but the import settings seem to have a huge effect
@JCobesV24 жыл бұрын
@@christreedee Yeah, you always want to utilize the "Quick Weld" option when importing .stl's into Max. However, in this case, I think you should use a middle program. 3DS max is always going to triangulate .stl from my understanding. So I researched and there are other programs that can get your model print ready while maintaining "quads" or converting to quads. If you do this, I would recommend exporting it as a .obj is you wanted to still use 3DS Max. I would avoid 3DS Max altogether in this instance. There are free versions of Net Fab or FreeCad that might help but if "quads" is the need, find a program that will get you those results.

Awesome vid, ty very much it helped a lot. I mean tbh I knew all the tools etc, but seeing the workflow and simplification of it all just gave me a better complete take on it all in case I am missing something or doing something wrong. Just one question, with regards to dimensions, does STL keep the cm setup? Or do we need to do something funky to convert dimensions over? Again, thnx for this vid, really clarified the whole workprocess.
@JCobesV22 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the great comment! Means alot. The STL will export and maintain whatever units you have established in the file. So be sure to check “Customize” -> “Units” and make sure cm is checked in both display and, more importantly, System Units. Hope that helps!

Hey Soda, what program are you using? In 3DS Max you need to make sure your system units are set to Inches or cm and not just display units. In 3DS Max, go to Customize--->Units--->System Units----> (set to inches, cm, mm, etc).

@JCobesV24 жыл бұрын
Great question! I'm assuming you're using 3DS Max? However, all 3D programs should have a simple solution for this. There are a couple of ways to go about it. First, you need to check the measurements of the 3D file you're importing and find some answers, such as, "is it the actual scale of a real car?" If so, you can simply Scale By World % to 10%. Another solution is to know your exact measurements of the RC car you want to print, make a block with those measurements and scale the model to fit. After you have scale landed, you will need to know how to break it down into the RC or 'toy" pieces. The 3d file you import will be very generic (usually for rendering purposes), meaning that it will not be ready to meet your exact needs. So, you will need to know how to model the individual parts to print (exterior pieces). It's hard to sum it up in a quick comment but, ultimately, you will need to know how to model. Depending on the 3D file, you will import it and will most likely print as a giant block and it sounds like to need a bunch of assembly parts. Hope that helps!

quick question, meshes that clip through one another will print as a single piece?
@JCobesV24 жыл бұрын
Hey SkyGuy! Sorry for the late response. As long as the separate pieces are capped correctly and attached together they will. You can kind of think of it as "blobbing" meshes together. So if things are running into one another without errors, the printer will see it as one piece. Or at least in the printer programs I've worked with. If you want to print pieces separately, create them separately from one another (e.g. Legos).

Hey Roger, I'm sure I know what's going on. Your measurement units in 3DS Max are different than Ultimaker Cura. This is kind of hidden but try this: In 3DS Max, Go to Customize ----> Units Setup ----> System Units Setup. Now this is different than "Display Units". Make sure your "System Units" are set right. For example, if you're printing in cm make sure your "System Units" are set to cm. You should be good to go. Let me know if that helps!
