* Making Simple Trees |
| 2 |
^ Making Simple Trees (Sample 1) |
| 3 |
a) Cubes for trunk and branches |
| 4 |
b) Sphere without tag 'Phong' for crown |
| 5 |
- We can add several spheres on branches |
| 6 |
c) We can use generator 'Polygon reduction' for additional decreasing polygons (very useful) |
| 7 |
^ Making Simple Trees (Sample 2) |
| 8 |
a) Create Cylinder with 6-8 segments (Trunk) |
| 9 |
b) Add big Sphere (Crown) with deformer 'Taper' for curving in the top |
| 10 |
c) Perhaps delete 'Phong' and add 'Polygon Reduction' |
| 11 |
^ Making Simple Trees ( Sample 3 for fur-tree) |
| 12 |
a) Cylinder with 6-8 segments |
| 13 |
b) Several Cones with 6-8 segments |
| 14 |
^ Generator 'Polygon reduction' |
| 15 |
a) Reduction Strength -- main parameter |
| 16 |
b) 'Polygon reduction' understand several daughter objects at once |
| 17 |
^ With Cylinder we can make hex key |
| 18 |
a) Just decrease a number of segments |
| 19 |
^ Deformers can work together |
| 20 |
a) Example |
| 21 |
- Taper, Bend, Twist into one Group |
| 22 |
^ Cone is more versatile than Pyramid |
| 23 |
a) Can regulate top radius |
| 24 |
b) Can regulate a number of segments |
| 25 |
^ Some pieces of Advice |
| 26 |
a) All objects should stand on the floor |
| 27 |
- Help if we 'Enable Axis' (L) attach to bottom objects |
| 28 |
b) If we want to attatch 'Enable Axis (L)' to bottom object with precision |
| 29 |
- Switch on 'Enable Snap' (Shift + S) where must be switched 'Edge Snap' |
| 30 |
c) Sometimes, it's better to make 2 or more cloners instead of one |
| 31 |
- Example, made vertical pillars with Radial cloner and connected horizontal pillars which was difficult to adjust properly |
| 32 |
d) Try to work with ready objects instead of creating again |
| 33 |
e) For rounded connected several the same objects use primitives |
| 34 |
- n-Side into Sweep with probable Circle |
| 35 |
- n-Side is powerful |
| 36 |
f) For properly rotation animation, first, click 'Freese R' |
| 37 |
^ Materials |
| 38 |
a) Reflectance answers for glare |
| 39 |
b) Holding Ctrl of material and put it on object gives a choice (useful) |
| 40 |
* |
| 41 |
^ Simple Superman's Flight |
| 42 |
a) 'Figure' we can find it where 'Cube', 'Sphere' and so on. |
| 43 |
b) Make the first key frame (F9) and make Auto keying (Ctrl + F9) |
| 44 |
c) Choose distance |
| 45 |
d) For properly rotation we must click 'Freeze R', then we can easily make rotation around one axis |
| 46 |
^ Hotkeys |
| 47 |
a) Display > Lines (N ~ G) -- default in F2, F3, F4 |
| 48 |
b) Display > Wireframe (N ~ H) -- often use, standart |
| 49 |
c) Display > Skeleton (N ~ L) -- shows skeleton, accidentally activated |
| 50 |
^ If we can see that, for example, with 8 segments Cone rounded off, but we don't want it |
| 51 |
a) Remove Tag 'Phong' or change settings of it |
| 52 |
^ If we want a cloner has the same coords like a daughters object, two methods |
| 53 |
a) The easiest, just hold Alt when creating a clone, for making parenting on spot |
| 54 |
- Cloner will take the same place |
| 55 |
b) Cloner > Object > Reset coordinates (default tick) |
| 56 |
- If untick, cloner will take the same coordinates like in a daughter objects |
| 57 |
^ If we want to make Step Gradient on one material |
| 58 |
a) Colour > Texture > Gradient > click twice on image of gradient |
| 59 |
- Right to Gradient is arrow where more functions |
| 60 |
`The key important parameter is that the Interpolation where we can change from (default Smooth) to others for every pointer |
| 61 |
`Don't forget about Type (default 2D - U) |
| 62 |
^ Loop/Path Cut |
| 63 |
a) Don't forget about 'Symmetrical Cut' (default untick) |
| 64 |
^ We can make Rounded Hence with 'Tube' |
| 65 |
^ F-Curves (~ + F) |
| 66 |
a) F-Curve > Show all tracks (default tick) |
| 67 |
b) If we want to change trajectory at equal distance, just change move frames (clicking on one of them where they have to be selected) on necessary axis |
| 68 |
^ For making interaction of an object |
| 69 |
a) Tags > Simulation Tag > Collider Body |
| 70 |
- Collision > Static Mesh (must be) |
| 71 |
`Sometimes 'Automatic' instead of Static Mesh |
| 72 |
b) Tags > Simulation Tag > Rigid Body |
| 73 |
- For that object, which will be affected |
| 74 |
- Dynamics > On collision (default Immediately) |
| 75 |
^ Target Camera |
| 76 |
a) Automatically creates Null which has to be inserted into necessary animated objects |
| 77 |
- So-so |
| 78 |
^ Camera |
| 79 |
a) Just make it as a daughter of necessary object |
| 80 |
* |
| 81 |
^ Try to make rounding off before conversion |
| 82 |
^ Deformer 'FFD' can work only with points |
| 83 |
a) Try not to use Position, except vertical axis |
| 84 |
- If we pull points only with Scale and Position of vertical axis, it's good rounding |
| 85 |

| 86 |
^ Making Rectangle shape with chamfers |
| 87 |
a) Spline Pen > Rectangle > Conversion |
| 88 |
b) Select vertex points (just ctrl + A) > RBM > Chamfer |
| 89 |
- in Attributes tick 'Flat', otherwise it will be rounding |
| 90 |
- Choose necessary radius |
| 91 |
^ Spline Mask -- very helpful for combining two or more splines |
| 92 |
a) If it works wrong, we need to choose the right Axis (default XY along Z) |
| 93 |
b) Several modes (default Union) |
| 94 |
- A subtract B |
| 95 |
- B subtract A |
| 96 |
- And |
| 97 |
- Or |
| 98 |
- Intersection |
| 99 |
^ Making Archs |
| 100 |
a) First method |
| 101 |
- Spline mask in which Rectangle and Circle |
| 102 |
- Spline mask into Extrude |
| 103 |
b) Second method (so - so) |
| 104 |
- Cube with 'Fillet' up to maximum |
| 105 |
- The more 'Fillet Subdivision' the better |
