[@badxstudio]

Ma man

[@CamIsMac.]

@@badxstudio lol I missed yesterday but I'm back. I'm happy yet sad the series is almost done. I still want to buy you guys some coffee when it's finished. ☕☕

[@pigeon7316]

I want to express my gratitude for this series. I have learned more from these videos than you can imagine. It was precise, clear and no unnecessary nonsense. I didn't have to watch a thousand KZbin videos to piece things together. I hope you do more series especially on metahumans

[@CartoonChris1]

you can also scale down your decal in Z to like .1 or something to avoid having to turn off receive decals. For instance, if you want the shuttle to avoid the yellow decal but you want to add blaster mark decals to its hull, you can't add blaster marks if you've turned off receive decals because it's all or nothing. This works with very flat surfaces like the floor but if it's uneven, then the z scale would need to be larger so each solution will be different per scene/object.

[@badxstudio]

Interesting point! thanks for that :) That will actually be a better workflow you are right

[@harshalsatlok-_-3258]

guys the way you teach is very awesome please start a different series after this plzzzzz

[@damdominici4266]

You are absolutely amazing!!!! I'm following along and I can't believe I got this far! Thank you SO much. You're so talented!! I'm fighting with my storm troopers, for some reason they look like they're sliding or moonwalking when filmed from behind but not from the sides. I've been tweaking the X numbers and playing with the shot length but still no luck! Thank you guys SOOOOO MUCH!!!!

[@motivationalmusafir7999]

[@badxstudio]

[@kapilvijay9141]

sir I want to tell u that, the topic "animation and the sequencer" should have some detailed topic, I feel like sometime little confusing, but anyway overall understanding, thank you! :)

[@MuhlisErtugrul]

If anybody suffering from the problem not being able to replicate similar blur effect like 27:00, check if your scalability setting is set to Epic or Cinematic. The blur effect doesn't reflect on the preview if your scalability quality is set to High or lower. Mine was at High setting and I was wondering why I couldn't achieve the same blur result lol

[@badxstudio]

Oh yes that is true! Some effects only work on higher settings!! But within the scalability settings you can still keep most settings low manually in order to prevent your computer from dying! So you don't have to change ALL settings to epic or cinematic :)

[@awstrec]

Thanks! I was stuck on that.

[@nimitverma3460]

TRACKING HIS FOOT> BECAUSE> it tracks the pivot point or Center-weighted point which is default at bottom> u have to change pivot point to head to track head without doing Offset

[@dheerajkumar4745]

I need my spaceship to open to ramp few seconds later than whats there in the animation, is it possible?

[@tief1975]

Cheers guys, I have one question. is there any way to hold the beginning of the animation? basically to start from a specific point of the animation, skipping the first part of the animation?

[@adamabutaya6946]

may i ask, why when i assign location in sequncer it appears that at first one is faster than the other then slower and at the end they reach at the same time how can i fix that?

[@pacificlinedesign19]

Amazong :)

[@danodesigndanomotion2068]

Ready

[@eyezlee1142]

where is chapter 19? it's been 5 hours

[@badxstudio]

It will be out in a few hours

[@_bymahi_]

👌👌👌

[@badxstudio]

[@dazwraps8213]

I am hereeeeee lol I got delayed because of a materials problem I encountered. UE5 kept asking me to update materials so I did and somehow they all turned into substrate materials. I do not know how to revert them to the simpler system you guys had. Any who let's finish this. THANK YOU!!!

[@yoshslac]

nice tutorial. Just a little thing. Decals problem @28:22 :)

[@vasdek2]

Hey guys, really good job with these tutorials. Really exciting stuff. Quick question about 25:20-25:22. Will you show in the next parts about how to fix this light leak towards the edges. It's pretty noticable here at the spaceship metallic parts near the window, where there is a bright reflection towards the edges like a bright vignette that movea with the shot and fades. Is there a way to fix it?

[@badxstudio]

Hey mate! So wait until we upload the rendering episode today and go ahead and render your shots first. More often than not these issues wont end up in final render since its not realtime. But in any case that they do there are 10000s of console variables you can use to tweak settings and produce better results. Those variables depend on scenes and lights and need researching but you can always find them online with a little digging!

[@pilzburger6905]

everytime i choose my character and click on enable look at tracking the camera fixes a point where the character starts but doesnt follow him. when i click on draw debug look at tracking position i see a yellow cube but the cube doesnt move with the character...

[@snehildiwan3236]

Did you find the solution?

[@GamingJitu]

please add time stamp

[@badxstudio]

Our brother has already done that in the comments for ya

[@colibri224]

Not to brag but I fixed the decals way ahead of you guys Sorry, just a bit proud of my progress 😊

[@badxstudio]

Hahahah dont be sorry! U are becoming a pro

[@danodesigndanomotion2068]

Start This part

[@ashishavin8748]

[@mosesvega1300]

[@Enki23]
