Resulting in more natural looking motions.

I hesitate to call this one finished, but I have no desire to keep working on it. So here is a new thing.




I spent some time this weekend implementing an index-independent test for mesh equality in blender. This is useful for testing changes to mesh algorithms, which might add elements in a different order than the old algorithm.
Writing a general version of such a test would involve solving the graph isomorphism problem! Luckily we can cut some corners in this special case. I wrote a description of how this works here: https://hackmd.io/@bo-JY945TOmvepQ1tAWy6w/SyuaFtay6 . The PR can be found here: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/pulls/112794 .

I finally finished (well, "finished" cuz when is a project ever really done?) a new fictional airplane I've been working on! I dunno why I find these so interesting to make in #Blender and #Substance, but I do. This one is called the "Spade C107 Apogee." It's a fictitious 1930s-era plane from an alternate universe. Check it out on Sketchfab! https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/spade-c107-apogee-e7195491bc324db499404f1165d77f6f #b3d #blender3d #aerodex

I modified it a bit. Need to add some brush shaders. Then i will use this to render my procedural paint splat simulation.

thanks to everyone who lurked and hung out <3

Another escalated evening project...
Since point clouds are so efficient in Blender, I thought why not create a fully procedural forest? Combined with randomized attributes per tree and branch, I was able to change between summer and autumn colors.
The first three photos have around 2 million points each, the last one has 20. Past 25 million, my system runs out of VRAM. So I guess I'll have to implement some kind of automatic density downscaling for large scenes.

The Bone Collections work is done for now, at least for Blender 4.0.
More improvements will follow, but since they won't break compatibility we can do those in Blender 4.1 as well.
For 4.0 there's more work to do, like changing how visual keying works. For that I did some digging in Blender's history, all the way back to 2007! I hope that I manage to fix things before Wednesday, that's the cut-off date for functional changes in 4.0.

New WIP on the skull for the commish'. Changing from a herbivorous type to a carnivorous type! (yes it has two pairs of eyes).
I'll try to do all the updates the main character needs on Sunday, and will go back to that skull the weekend after :)



There's been a pretty good shift to mastodon in the #b3d community, and at #bcon23 I want to work to blow this shit up even more. No idea what to do? Help those n00bs sign up. No followers or likes? We're gonna watch them bust a first toot, then get them so jacked up on dopamine from likes and retoots and comments that they're hooked forever. No ads, MFer. No algorithm, MFer. No rage bait, MFer. You modeled a kitty cat? Post that shit, fuck yes I'll gold star it
Another mini peg this time:
I think that's it now I can't think of another style of wooden peg.

Unity, Twitter, Chrome, Google, etc... when it happens, the psychology behind it is "you're too chicken to abandon us, because you know how much work that would be." And it is. It's definitely work. Almost a year ago, at the #blenderconference with so many global #b3d friends who knew each other through #twitter, we all felt anguish together when Musk bought it on October 27. Switching to Mastodon was work. But the best work. Righteous, cleansing work. Get open, forever.

Today's WIP is my base for my mini diorama of Spirit of the North!
Well... 50% of the base, I still need to a couple of medium sized rocks, grass and the magical Infuse Flowers, which will take quite some time :)
The main rock reminds me of a common toad, I like that x)

Just wanted to show off my fern! It will be posed and several ferns will be scattered across my base for the Spirit of the North mini diorama.
I'm sure no one will believe me when I say that, to this date, it's probably the most challenging thing I've ever sculpted!
