i set the motion and went to bed while it rendered 360 aweet as gently caress frames that looked horrendous once photoshop turned them into a gif

need to turn into whatever format giphy makes directly coz they don't have the colour limit

imgur has the video to gif thing, and i thin k the resulting gifv mp4 is usually high quality. looks like you cant uplaod video files directly, tho, has to be linked from a hosting site?

idk man

lately ive been fuckering around with world machine and it totally owns

for example today I learned you can take the a direction function and plug that into the evaporation channel on the snow device so have one side of thre amount have the snow evaporate faster than the other, which would happen irl because of idk sun and heat or some bullshit?

yea man. when i got into the backend of how renderers worked i found out that ray tracers exist, but they are expensive because you gotta calc each path of each photon. it'd be like simulating graivity with 100 of thousands of objects, each object has an impact on each other.

anyway, all this other stuff has a computational model that works good enough for visual representation so use it. it's neat to think about, and then actually see the outcome!

thats video format. mpeg or whatever. mp4, but thats a container, so the video format will be mepeg2 or something i bet

hi echi my dude I guess I'll crosspost this here

https://s1.webmshare.com/zNKmg.webm

I wanna get back into 3DS Max and/or Blender because 3D poo poo rules but I haven't touched Blender in like.... almost 10 years

here's some garbage I did way back in the day when I was a total brown noser in school and spent 20 hours on one week projects worth 2% of my mark because ?!?!

blender fluid sims were cool

fur + hair was cool too

here's some gradient mesh poo poo I made in illustrator as well

my man good to have you in here

that gradient poo poo totally owns. did you do today watch? god that must have taken some time

i'm ok at fiddling with tools but have no artistic talent as such: or little. it's growing slowly lol

mate

i remember now

what does your thing export? i remember the toolchain trying to get your models out into something i could use missed some pieces :/

also came into blender as unconnected shapes which meant applying different materials was slow. lol

m8 the tools have been updated, now I use stud.io to build which packages povray and the translation layer

It doesn't allow for as fine control of the render but it's gobs easier to set up

Do you still use luxRender or have you switched to cycles?

do you do anything other than mountain scenes with glowing text?

e: i don't mean for that to sound snarky, just wondering if you do other kinds of 3d work as well that you don't post here

switched to cycles

the integration with blender makes a huge difference and cycles has far less random fireflies which i found hard to control

the biggest thing missing from luxrender is a true bidirectional sampler and less control over the sampler, and dispersion in glass material (although you can fake it)

nope. amateur mountains and glowing text is the ONLY stuff i make :smugmrgw:

i'm hopeless at modelling but not bad at using tools so all my stuff comes out of that

for awhile i had this idiot purist attitude but i wanna ditch it so that the end product is what matters not the process

I have an idea, but is going to require exporting a height map out of blender, which i know you can do i just got to work out how

so world machine can also generate snow but I never really liked it but its ok. whats "cool" is that its not just a snow texture but a thick cover so I exported both meshes and use both here and animate the transparancy of one. end result is noisy and not really that cool because this isnt like a time lapse of snow falling really and you cant quite tell but the snow is thicker

had a quick look and not sure if any of those export options you posted work.. but I think thats because youre listing scene exports (like export to a renderer) and not into a 3d modelling program? idk? who knows anything

I think the idea could be done a lot better, as
it stands i just rendered the same scene with lots of variations and then mashed them, I think the idea done but with planning and thought could look interesting

this is the same image rendered but lol at 2k vs 4k export from world machine. also used coastal erosion this time and a beach map

and lol a logo. this would be epic animated but not sure how to do so without learning scripting

need to make that glare look more.. smoother and glorious
