I love how this was a tutorial about one thing, but then became a rant about several billion things required in the same sequence of events- this is what tutorials about blender need to be 😂
Hey, that last part where you transferred the swirl can be done in another way now, and can be an absolute savior for people who don't have a tablet and can't draw and they want the edges to be smooth and for everything to be very precise. I'm on Blender 3.3.1. I saw a two tutorials from Blender Secrets that teach this. You can create an image, load it into Blender and turn that into a grease pencil object, turn that into a mesh, and use knife project onto any mesh you want. Saw you don't have many videos and that it's been a year with no part two... Hoping you didn't give up on your Blender journey! I don't have a lot of patience, but I was desperate enough to sit through this long af video (I'm super spoiled to Royal Skies, Blender Secrets, and whoever made those super short lazy tutorials), and I bet a lot of other people were feeling the same. We needed the info, so we watched all of it. And we'll do better for it. I learned a lot of valuable information here and I'm looking forward to having this work for me.
Been messing around with rigging and weight painting for about a year not and this is the FIRST tutorial that told me I can actually go into weight paint mode WITH THE ARMATURE STILL IN POSE MODE!! Legitimately a game changer 'cause I'm working with a model with several tentacles and they need some weight adjustment for sure. Take my like.
Dude. Oh my fucking god. *YOU SAVED MY LIFE* . NOT EVEN JOKING. I had a very high poly model commissioned. I was fucked, because it was unriggable. I had lower poly versions made and made THOSE even lower poly via the decimate modifier. I was fucked for a long time. Here I am sitting with a highly detailed model and I have this shitty low poly version (good to animate with, but looks like ass). I tried transferring the weights over, didn't work. Tried using the Shrinkwrap method, didn't work. Even tried using the Data Transfer Modifier not too long ago (when this video wasn't up), and it didn't work... Then your genius ass comes walking through with this video. This beautiful video. Dude, it worked ABSOLUTELY *PERFECTLY* . I just cannot thank you enough man. THANK YOU.
I'm glad it helped you out. Wait a minute. You transferred weight data from low poly to high poly?... Jesus Christ I never would have even thought of that! You just gave me some really valuable information. thanks!
@@GameAbuseStudios Dude. I'm talking an ABSURD amount. I transferred weight data from a low poly some 40,000 poly model to a high poly 4.5 MILLION poly model. That's how incredible this method was. I'm working on my animation right now, and it worked like an absolute charm.
Damn!! This is the first of your video I’ve seen, and as someone who learnt blender on TH-cam,I think you’re the best teacher, you find a way to make it fun. I can say no one teaches quite like you..
The fun thing is your method to introduce the tutorial ,its 24 minutes and never felt bored cuz its fun ,keep it up with good content . Best hopes for u ✌️
I'm glad you went through all the hard work figuring this out, because I was pretty lost trying to do it myself, I think I missed the same problem with having the same vertex groups on both objects
One of the best tutorials on the dtm, well done! This helped me a lot, I have been trying to get my things to map accurately on a very complex rig with minimal successes, I’ve gotten by with Voxel heat diffuse. But this tutorial offers bits and bobs that other tutorials gloss over. Legendary tutorial, years from now people will look back on this, and be helped by it.
I'm looking for part 2, you said not to worry! Awesome video mate! Hope you return as I see you haven't put out a vid for over a year. I hope something big will suprise us! Salut
Bro you are by far the best "blender tutorial" personthingymabobguy that i have found on youbertubers. No seriously. Everyone else just isnt interesting or just done explain. 10/10 will watch again.
this. is. gold. 👏 you really understand how to make clear tutorials, both for beginners and people who just want to truly learn something. This has so much good information on rigging too, that I've had to painstakingly figure out. Please keep making passionate tutorials about topics you explore, it's so fun to watch and your comedic timing is great! 😊
omg, the manual! so you look up 'widgetifizer' or whatever. the manual says 'the widgetifizer widgetifizes your object.' SO FREAKING HELPFUL! anyway, thanks sooo much for this Arcane Info!
I can't thank you enough, I've been searching all over the internet on how to use this modifier and none explained the problem to me until I found your video. well explained and also fun. keep it up
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!! And im twords youtube for putting you in my recommendations. I spent days trying to add clothes to a character got to a certain point where clothes would move witg the body but have some serious clipping. I looked for ages to figure out how to fix it through tutorials, redit, ext. Thankyou so much for making a proper tutorial easy to understand and clear directions!!!! THANKYOU!!!!
Don't let some hate comment bring you down. This video is gold! The best about the subject imo, while also being funny asf. I whole-heartedly agree with your criticism about Blender. In my view, it's an amazing and very useful software with a beautiful UI... that unfortunately has yet a lot to evolve in terms of user friendliness.
im sorry that im not a noob (yet not a pro either) cuz i dont watch many tutorials, but i swear that EVERY SINGLE low subcriber channel ALWAYS explains 10x better than channels with millions of subs. tysm Game Abuse Studios.
Yep. There's nothing like doing a.....I dunno, 20, 30, 40-step process, where every step has to be practically perfect in every way, else the result won't be what you want; then, finally getting to the end, and realizing there's one more asinine little step you forgot to do. Blender is one of the reasons I have no hair left to pull out. But then you look at the results, and go, "Wow."
that first column of modifiers in blender is the bane of my existence also awesome tricks you found out! I'm always looking for practical uses of that obscure modifier, and your video showed a couple of them splendidly keep up awesome work 👍
I love the in depth explanation, makes this tutorial outstanding. However, I don't think Vertex Weight and Vertex Data are the same thing. Vertex Data is any Data stored on the Vertex/Point domain. Weight is a specific Attribute/Type of Data. With Geometry nodes for example you can store any custom Data on the Vertices, but this is totally unrelated to weight. In the use case of the modifier, it's probably the same tho. Edit: Sorry, just noticed you said the exact same thing in Part 2 xD
This is so nicely explained! Watching tutorials can sometimes feel kind of tedious, and I tend to avoid the longer ones. But even at length of 24 minutes +, I was not feeling it at all! Time flew by while watching this like nothing! Very entertaining, but still keeping it focused on completely on teaching this to people. I am only sorry for one single thing about this...... WHERE THE F... IS PART 2 ?? 😢
solid tutorial, I learned stuff and in the same time laugh my ass off, subscribed btw really one of the best tutorial I ever seen, yeah no surprise that it's took a while to create p.s. hope part two in progress
I really like how your frustration matches mine. One thing that always pissed me off is when they skipped past lighting setup, so you would follow the tutorial exactly and your shit would still be ugly.
TH-cam should add a feature where you can tell the creator to remake this for the newest version. But no doubt the best tutorial on this modifier. I was always scared to even touch this modifier but you made it look too easy. And the best vertex group named "ass"👍
I failed to transfer the morphology (from one character to another, vertex, edge and face). I want to do this since the target model was linked to a whole animation set, a skeleton and a whole bunch of other stuff and I want to change the model to another that I create without having to start from scratch, so copy the topology . Besides, if there's an addon for that, I'm interested. That said, I learned well thank you, I'm still going to watch the tutorial again from beginning to end in case it seems by far the most complete and relevant that I've seen so far, which translates inevitably by an error or misunderstanding on my part.
very good tutorial! actually I have a question about the swirl near the end of video. You were just converting the circle into the swirl while simply moving the mouse, how did you do that? thanks a lot!
Whenever I tried to use this MFing modifier I got nowhere... until now. I guess I would never have enough patience to figure this one out on my own as I had similar problem googling any decent information xD Really appreciate the work you put into creating this vid and thanks a lot for clarification! Cheers! :))
Transferring data to character was a great section. I can feel some of the frustrations but also I don't expect such elaborate free software to have its most advanced tools documented in a newbie friendly manner. Not to say they shouldn't bother but also to say chill, and take the W on figuring it out. Maybe submit some of your first-hand newbie-friendly knowledge to the open source project's documentation?
Hey dude, so I actually had another idea I wanted to try out. Creating hair and importing it to Unreal was super hard, I wonder if it would be possible to create hair with a particle system, convert that to a mesh, use the solidify modifier to extrude the strands, then with your hair mesh selected you can use this Data Transfer Modifier method to add the fur to your mesh and have it move flawlessly! Or you can create your hair with hair cards following similar tutorials. But the basic idea is, I wonder if it will stick to your mesh and armature much like how it did with my high poly model. Anyways, just some food for though. Gonna try this technique out soon. Great stuff man!
Also, here's another fun fact: you might be surprised how easy it is, when first learning this, to mistakenly click the source object first, and link the data in reverse to the wrong target object. Then you find out that your once vibrant, animated source object will sit there like a log, kind of like that singing and dancing frog from the Warner Bros. cartoon.
I appreciate the tutorial and agree with your insight about the documentation. I also agree about the nonsense. It's really hard to watch, for one small reason. I'm not telling you this to be that jerk, commenter. I just want to let you know that it is good. The video could be a bit more lighthearted about the problems, just to show them to be less critical about everything. It's harder to stick with the video for me. I know, not everyone will take it this way. I just want to see more of your videos and hope you talk what I take it as constructive. You may now push back on my critique now. Sorry for the ego thrashing if that's what I did, and I hope you can forgive me. Thank you for all that you put into this video regardless. You can poke me (in my DMs) if you want me to enlighten why.
Not a problem, I was very critical about it. I was catching a cold (a certain and well known virus) and I had a hair up my ass because of it. My future videos won't be as critical as this one was.
@@GameAbuseStudios That's a good thing. There's not too many people out there that can take criticism even if it's presented with in a soft way like this. You sir, are more mature than 98% of all TH-cam content creators. (Achievement unlocked!🏆) 😅
It really is something putting this next one together... turns out there's a lot more to it than I thought.
