* |
| 2 |
^ With 'Enter' we go to Mode 'Points', 'Edges' or 'Polygons' |
| 3 |
^ Bevel (M + S) > Bevel Mode |
| 4 |
a) Default 'Chamfer' |
| 5 |
b) 'Solid' -- we can get an interesting effect |
| 6 |
- Similar to 'Inner' (I) |
| 7 |
* |
| 8 |
^ Cycle Animation |
| 9 |
a) Make, for instance, 3 frames where the first and the third ones are equal |
| 10 |
- The second frame in the middle |
| 11 |
b) Show F-Curves (` + F) |
| 12 |
- Deactivate F-Curve > Show All Tracks |
| 13 |
c) Select necessary Axis and Property |
| 14 |
- Functions > Track After > Repeat After |
| 15 |
- If necessary Functions > Track Before > Repeat Before |
| 16 |
d) If we want to make certain a number of repetitions |
| 17 |
- Reduce Show F-Curves for seeing selected Track in Attributes |
| 18 |
- Default Repetition '0', that means infinite |
| 19 |
- Here we can put a necessary number of repetitions |
| 20 |
* |
| 21 |
^ Making Ocean Water |
| 22 |
a) An object 'Plane' where the more segments more ability of deformation |
| 23 |
b) Into 'Plane' deformer 'Displacer' |
| 24 |
- The deformer 'Displacer', in contrast others, isn't needed for appropriating sizes, it's good |
| 25 |
- Displacer: it's a deformer that distorts an object via a map |
| 26 |
- Displacer > Shading |
| 27 |
`Here we choose a map for deformation (Noise) |
| 28 |
c) If we don't want to curving of the object, remove tag Phong from 'Plane' |
| 29 |
d) Displacer > Object |
| 30 |
- Strength (perhaps, sometimes useful) |
| 31 |
- Height (for changing deformation) |
| 32 |
e) For animation waves |
| 33 |
- Displacer > Shading > a Chosen Map (choose Noise) |
| 34 |
`Animation Speed (default 0), not necessary in big numbers |
| 35 |
f) Making material for water |
| 36 |
- Untick Color |
| 37 |
- Tick transparency |
| 38 |
`Refraction Preset: Water (default Glass) |
| 39 |
`Absorption Color: Choose desired color, perhaps light-blue |
| 40 |
- Create 'Floor' and decreasing it for Absorption Color |
| 41 |
`Floor is always infinite, very useful |
| 42 |
g) Works very well with 'Physical Sky' |
| 43 |
^ Making Shining (the first method) |
| 44 |
a) An object 'Physical sky' |
| 45 |
- An easy method, where shining appeared on spot, objects throw shades |
| 46 |
- Physical sky > Time and Location |
| 47 |
`Here we can change time and city |
| 48 |
- We can closely see a scheme of physical sky |
| 49 |
`Here we can see and change the sun and sides of west, east, south and north |
| 50 |
^ Making Shining (the second method) |
| 51 |
a) Create Several Light objects where we place them in wished places |
| 52 |
- For throwing shades choose Light Object > General > Shadow (default None) |
| 53 |
^ Physical sky |
| 54 |
a) Time and Location: We can Animate time and create Timelaps |
| 55 |
b) We can change gradient in Sky, color in the Sun, and do a lot |
| 56 |
* |
| 57 |
^ Movement with tag 'Align to spline' (useful) |
| 58 |
a) Draw a necessary spline |
| 59 |
b) On an object cling tag 'Align to spline' where |
| 60 |
- Spline Path: here choose the created spline |
| 61 |
- Rail Path: make a copy of the created spline and move slightly with one horizontal axis |
| 62 |
`It does for avoiding mistakes (objects turns on 180 degrees for one frame) |
| 63 |
`If we change the position of vertical axis, we turn object making an interesting animation (better change points separately) |
| 64 |
- Tick Tangential for proper turning of the object |
| 65 |
* |
| 66 |
^ |
| 67 |
a) Deformer Display Filter |
| 68 |
- My assigned hotkey (` + D) |
| 69 |
b) Viewport Solo Single/ Viewport Solo Off |
| 70 |
- My assigned hotkeys (` + S for Solo Single; Alt + Shift + Ctrl + S for Solo Off) |
| 71 |
c) Generator "Sweep" doesn't work with tag "Align to Spline" |
| 72 |
- Choose a worked daughter spline |
| 73 |
d) Deformer 'PolyFX' can work with several daughter objects as a daughter |
| 74 |
e) When we make animation of Camera, use Coords HPB in Attributes |
| 75 |
- They really help |
| 76 |
^ Smooth Disappearing |
| 77 |
a) Use tag 'Render Tags' > 'Display' |
| 78 |
- Tick 'Use Visibility' where making smooth disappearing from 100 to 0% |
| 79 |
^ Cut as a Spline |
| 80 |
a) Make a necessary spline with 'Pero Spline' |
| 81 |
b) They both must be selected in mode 'Points' |
| 82 |
- The spline bring to the place of the object |
| 83 |
c) Line Cut (K ~ K) + holding Ctrl |
| 84 |
d) After making the spline can be removed |
| 85 |
^ When we want to make animation via tag 'Align to spline', use method Group into group |
| 86 |
a) Much easier set turning |
| 87 |
^ Diagram of Timeline (` + F) |
| 88 |
a) The diagram consists of two axes |
| 89 |
- A vertical axis is responsible for parameters of definitions |
| 90 |
`If Position, just numbers |
| 91 |
`If Rotation, just degreez |
| 92 |
`If Morphs, perhaps percent |
| 93 |
- A horizontal axis is responsible for time |
| 94 |
b) On graphic of an object we can see key frames |
| 95 |
- Choosing one or several key frames, we can change their definitions and in Time and in definitions |
| 96 |
c) It's better to change position key frames on Timeline |
| 97 |
- There's 2 useful buttons 'Lock Time' and 'Lock Value', but we can switch them on spot, just holding Shift |
| 98 |
`In Viewport we can't do it with Shift |
| 99 |
- It's easier to select knots and regulate them with |
| 100 |
`Holding Shift for knot will change only one of two knots (the same as untick 'Auto Tangents') |
| 101 |
`Holding Ctrl for knot will change both their length only knots (the same as tick 'Lock Tangent Angles') |
| 102 |
`Holding Shift + Ctrl for knot will change one of two knots only relatively to axis Time (the same as untick 'Auto Tangents' + 'Lock Tangent Angles') |
| 103 |
`Holding Alt for knot we won't change their length (Lock Tangent Length) |
| 104 |
- If we select one or several key frames without 'Auto Tangents', just press 'A' for ticking 'Auto Tangents' |
| 105 |
d) The longer Knots the longer time next to this key frame, otherwise shorter |
| 106 |
e) Very useful when we hover over a key frame, we can see a value, but twice click LBM we can type necessary value where the key frame automatically will take this value |
| 107 |
f) Timeline > View > Show > Show Min/Max Values (default untick) |
| 108 |
- We'll see thin interrupted lines on Min/Max Values |
| 109 |
- If we pull them the values of key frames will be changed as well |
| 110 |
g) We can also work simultaneously with several axes in Position, Rotation or Scale |
| 111 |
h) Changing modes among 'Dope Sheet', 'F-Curves Mode' and 'Motion Mode': Shift + Tab |
| 112 |

* Sculpting tools |
| 114 |
^ There's a new sign 'Subdivide Sculpt Object' in Objects-- for smoothness |
| 115 |
a) We can see it in a 'Sculpt' Layout |
| 116 |
b) Wokrs only with editable objects |
| 117 |
c) If we click several times, an object is more smoothing and smoothing |
| 118 |
d) With every next click on the sign 'Subdivide Sculpt Object' we'll see more quadrangles polygons |
| 119 |
- In the end like hexahedron |
| 120 |
e) We can see changes only in a mode |
| 121 |
^ Volume Mesh (U ~ H) in the right-down corner of Objects |
| 122 |
a) Add quickly lots of quadrangles |
| 123 |
b) Can work with usual objects as well |
| 124 |
c) Can go together with Subdivide Sculpt Object |
| 125 |
^ Arrows next to 'Subdivide Sculpt Object' allow to change levels of an object |
| 126 |
^ Sculpting Layers -- it's a separate tab, next to Objects |
| 127 |
a) We can add new sculpting layers and folders |
| 128 |
- It allows to make some changes and come back if you don't like it |
| 129 |
- As far as I know, the basic sculpting layer we can't switch off via visible |
| 130 |
b) Here we can change a level of smoothness |
| 131 |
- We can also change an accurate smoothness on new sculpting layers |
| 132 |
c) New sculpting layers can be put into new folders for sorting |
| 133 |
^ Sculpting tools |
| 134 |
a) Draw -- allows to pull or push an object. Useful |
| 135 |
b) Every sculpting tool > Attributes > Modifiers |
| 136 |
- We can switch modifiers with ticking enable Modifiers |
| 137 |
- After ticking, we'll see Strength for |
| 138 |
'Smooth |
| 139 |
'Pinch |
| 140 |
'Inflate |
| 141 |
^ Every sculpting tool > Attributes > Settings |
| 142 |
a) Size and Strength understandable |
| 143 |
b) Falloff: here we can adjust influence of a sculpting brush |
| 144 |
- There's a ring-button for default condition of Falloff in the left-down corner |
| 145 |
- Load Preset: sometimes useful, because we can quickly make some interesting paints |
| 146 |
'Example, "Step" |
| 147 |
^ A sculpting brush 'Wax' |
| 148 |
a) Perhaps, for softness of edges |
| 149 |
^ Knife |
| 150 |
a) For cutting in depth |
| 151 |
b) Holding Ctrl gives on the contrary effect |
| 152 |
^ Inflate |
| 153 |
a) For bloating |
| 154 |
^ Amplify |
| 155 |
a) For adding contrast |
| 156 |
b) It works only on these parts of an object where we did with other sculpting tools |
| 157 |
^ Grab |
| 158 |
a) For quick concavity or convexity |
| 159 |
b) Settings > Direction -- very important |
| 160 |
- Default Mouse |
| 161 |
- Better change into 'Normal' |
| 162 |
^ Smooth |
| 163 |
a) A very necessary tool for smoothness |
| 164 |
^ Pinch |
| 165 |
a) Flatten -- very useful |
| 166 |
^ Fill -- don't understand yet |
| 167 |
^ Scrape -- a very necessary sculpting tool |
| 168 |
a) Reminds Wax |
| 169 |
^ Mask -- allows to hide a part of an object |
| 170 |
a) Freehand |
| 171 |
^ Erase -- Returns an object to the initial condition |
| 172 |
a) Doesn't influence on Mask |
| 173 |
^ Attributes > Stamp or Stencil |
| 174 |
a) We can load prepared presets where we paint interesting objects on spot |
| 175 |
- If an image is blurred, increase level of subdivide |
| 176 |
- With Stamp is better |
| 177 |
b) With Stencil is very useful wallpaper of preset |
| 178 |
- Quick do a kind of wall |
