what a great addon. i like this part of blender where we have an absolutely good tool and it's just a one button in context menu

[@ArtisansofVaul]

Totally agree. Great addon and well implemented

[@regular-user]

And of course, youtube recommends me these videos after weeks of me making models for my game and having to manually clean and re-adjust my models 🤷‍♂️ This is incredible and from now on I will be using this. 👏

[@ArtisansofVaul]

Haha, isn't that always the way! Damn KZbin mocks us on purpose!

[@socrates112]

Man, I didnt know LInear came with this. I have been using it all this time and didnt know about Linear. I learn so much from your tutorials.

[@ArtisansofVaul]

My pleasure. Glad they can be of help 😁😁

[@norm_olsen]

Great find! Simple yet elegant solutions to common problems! I know that you can add more rounded segments to say an archway by selecting all edges of the curvature and choosing Edge > Subdivide Edge-Ring, but sadly it doesn't work on bevels (like in your example here). This is a free solution for that and more! Not sure how you keep stumbling upon these add-ons, but keep on stumblin' lol That's part of what makes Blender such a robust system is its paid (and free) add-on eco system! Thanks for sharing!

[@ArtisansofVaul]

My pleasure and totally agree, it's great there are so many solutions to these kinds of problems to make peoples life easier. I will have to check the subdivide edge ring setting, I've never used that so thanks so much for mentioning it 😁👍🏻

[@9b8ll]

I love using the edge flow addon. But I never knew how use set linear till now. I use machin tools to flatten. Good vid as usual.

[@ArtisansofVaul]

Cheers 😁 Yeah it's not the most intuitive without it being demonstrated so glad I could help 👍🏻

[@Revenant483]

Nice free tool ΛₒV! The more tools we have in our toolbox the easier it will be for our workflow.

[@ArtisansofVaul]

Totally agree!

[@melbendigo]

Thank you thank you thank you! You answered all my questions!

[@ArtisansofVaul]

Awesome. Glad I could help.

[@richardokeeffe8375]

Great tips on a great add on!

[@ArtisansofVaul]

Cheers and totally agree, it really makes a few things much easier to achieve quickly.

[@tenium0]

Can you please make a video about MUCH AS POSSIBLE add-ons that you use a lot or make you job easier? It would be life saver. How people dont want to know add-ons that saves hours?

[@ArtisansofVaul]

Happy to. I try to include addons I use or have recently found but I like to mix in other videos on workflow/etc as well

[@VGModelling]

It is very nice indeed :)

[@ArtisansofVaul]

😁👍🏻

[@VGModelling]

I recommend also Ngon loop select if you don't have it already.

[@ArtisansofVaul]

@@VGModelling oh, I'll have a look at that. Is it similar to the Lselect from Mesh Machine?

[@VGModelling]

Faster than L select, though not always work, just double click and will select the loop@@ArtisansofVaul

[@gronko_chug_butter]

Great videos but does anyone else find his mic too loud? Almost sounds like its peaking some times.

[@ArtisansofVaul]

😅 I used go get comments saying it's too quiet. I think the issue may be I have quite a loud voice so getting a good medium volume is tricky

[@SubhrajyotiAcharyyaDSB]

Hi. Does Meshmachine also do the edge flow thing? like with refuse i can subdivide and set the edge flow easily, but what about doing like like yout fist example where i dont need more subdivisions?

[@ArtisansofVaul]

Hmm... I can't say I've tried it for doing anything with straight lines. For the curved lines I just hit refuse and it does it nicely

[@SubhrajyotiAcharyyaDSB]

@@ArtisansofVaulwell, thanks for this addon anyway. have been using it in these 2 hours already and i wish i knew it sooner

[@ArtisansofVaul]

@@SubhrajyotiAcharyyaDSB 😁👌🏼

[@Dead_Last]

Noice.

[@ArtisansofVaul]

Cheers

[@styloo_]

loop tools doesnt doing same?

[@ArtisansofVaul]

So some of the functions are similar but work focusing on slightly different parts/selections and have different results if you put them next to each other. Like the Relax tool in Loop Tools is a little similar but won't make such a perfectly rounded end shape if you try it.

[@Piotreq321]

Test

[@ArtisansofVaul]

Success! Hopefully that means we are good from now on 😁👍🏻
