very! the rest of the UI is gonna be programmer art cuz anything more complex is currently out of reach but it’s enough to be a little impressive!

to make the inside, either put a circle inside (then go to edit mode, select everything, hit F to make it a face aka polygon) or a cylinder with the top cut off (go to Edit mode, deselect everything, press 3 to be in Faces mode, then select the top face of the cylinder, hit X and choose Face to delete it, then hit A to select everything, then go to Mesh->Normals->Flip to make it inside out)

 Started with a torus. Enabled x-ray (button in the top right of the screen) selected the bottom half, deleted it. Deleted 3/4 of it. Extruded (E key) the bottom to the the desired depth. Extruded a single vertex from the bottom ring. Pressed N key to go into properties and set the x and y to zero. (you can drag the mouse down multiple fields to change them at once.) Selected two of the vertices in the ring and the center one and pressed F to create a face. Repeated that for the entire bottom ring. Going back up to the torus, I extruded the outer edge a ways. In the top middle of the screen, there's the option to change the transform pivot point. I selected the option for active element. (Which is shown in white, usually the last thing you selected.) Then, selecting the outer most vertex, as well as the ones along half the outer ring, I hit S (Scale) Y (Scale along the Y axis. Also works for the X and Z axis. Holding shift + axis would select the other two axis) and then 0. Then repeated that for the other half of the vertices on the X axis. This is how I got that square. Then I selected the ring at the edge of the torus, and the ring at the bottom, and hit ctrl+B and added a teeny tiny bevel.(This ups the realism a bit and helps keep shaders from getting wonky.) Went into object data properties on the right side, normals, and turned on auto smoothing, with a setting of 36. I hit tab to go back into object mod. Then I went into modifiers on the right, then added a mirror modifier, selecting the options for X and Y. Then I added an array modifier with a set count of four,(This might be optional in your use case) and hey presto!

So I was thinking about that holey mask that other guy posted today, and wondered what would happen if I invited some curve modifiers to my party. I ended up making an octopus tire!

Okay now it's getting interesting: Just gotta clean up that shading somehow. Might need to add some more geometry.

in my post i explain exactly how to fix that. you use a data transfer modifier to copy the normals from a hidden copy of your object that doesn’t have any holes in it edit: you don’t need to add more geometry, that’s not the problem. the problem is all the ngons that get created.

There are no ngons. It's literally just this 16 face mesh run through a bunch of modifiers:  Instead of modeling something and then punching holes in it, I modeled the holes first.

don’t GPU renders go faster if you use a larger tile size? people say to turn it up to like 256 for GPU renders. also don’t all the cool kids with RTX GPUs use OptiX, so Cycles can use the GPU’s ray tracing capabilities and the crazy fast OptiX denoiser

I believe so about RTX but I don’t have one. just gtx. i can use optix but it’s no faster and you’re right about the larger buckets for pure GPU but i’ve mucked around and found 32x32 leads to best times while mixed GPU and CPU, apparently smaller buckets suits the CPU but smaller than 32 must introduce too much inefficiency idk 🤷♂️ it interests me as far as how it all works but i also don’t know poo poo Jenny Agutter posted:test render siiick

sweet box cutter has some of those features, including the grid, but doesn’t look like it can do all of those things watching people use hard surface modelling tools is impressive, especially once you try yourself and realise how good they are lol
