These add-ons are great for a beginner and professional to use. I have been having trouble modelling more complex shapes so I am sure these will help out. Thanks
You forgot to mention Quad Remesher. It's a remesher add-on which is made by the same guy who create ZRemesher for ZBrush. It's one of ZBrush's most desired features, so having it directly in Blender is quite nice.
@@psychoboitrip3125, I've never had Zremesher fail and I've retopologized too realistic stylized beards! What was the shape that it failed on for example? Now I want to test them side by side...
It should be mentioned that if you're trying to retopo a mesh for "final" output, then Instant Meshes is not a good solution. There are much better ways to get decent looking meshes out there if you refuse to do it by hand. Retopo by hand is still the best way to get a final mesh though. The reason is that instant meshes are still not good for animation or deformation. Edge loops are terminated in strange ways, and there's only a limited means of controlling this in the software.
it's still super useful for certain meshes. things that don't need rigging and meshes that have small amounts of detail. or meshes that will only be used as renders, rather than needing subdivision or other modifiers. just dont expect it to behave when it comes to making character meshes or things that will be deformed.
I have proven great add-ons (hops) doesn't help if you suck. I tried to make a Mando helmet and I couldn't figure out how to make the side cuts because it was both: not a box and at an angle, not orthogonal to the front... I asked 3 ytubers for a tutorial on it and to my surprise MasterXeon responded and showed me an example in a blend file. He said it was too hot for ytube... It was so low poly and so well done (it's been 2 days and I still don't understand how he did it.) I've been sleeping most of the day because so far I still don't understand how he did it. Today is the 3rd day, and I'm gonna take a nap right now. I know someday I'll figure it out, but holy cow I'm not taking this well...
Modeling vs programming which is harder? I go with modeling,at least I learned c# and java pretty well, but blender is giving me headaches this addons would come in handy.
Some of them are doing the similar work, like the "advanced Boolean tools" & "Bool Tool", "instant meshes remesh" & "DynRemesher" , why not pick the better one to introduce?
Blender doesn’t have a clip brush like in zbrush? I still can’t believe it’s able to do everything and there’s no clip brush?No love for sculptors.I still love you blender 🥰
15_building tool This add-on is interesting because it makes it possible to create nice buildings or houses really fast by adding procedurally some of the most building blocks for building like floors, Windows, Railing, Doors, Balconies, and Roofs. This is buggy gives errors. And doesn't work properly in 2.81.
@@PatriceFERLET It is a common opinion of many. Blender benefits include: 1. Free (best advantage) 2. Lightness 3. More active add-ons But I'll use another tool, except for those three advantages (although there are other minor advantages). Especially the animation feature is the weakness of Blender. (Of course, those three advantages are important, so blenders are available.)
@@PatriceFERLET It is not a belief but a years experience and I do not say bad blender but rather wonderful and I will simplify it for you simply what you want to do in rig and skin with blender in half an hour in maya within 3 minutes At most, as for animation, hundreds of tools are available in professional Maya .. and advanced skeleton amazing
@Zed O thanks a lot. I needed details and you gave a lot ☺. Just to precise, because English is not my mother tongue, my question was not aggressive or sarcastic, I really didn't know on what blender could be weak for rigging. Thanks
I started using Blender some time ago and stopped when I saw that precision is not one of its stronger sides, since I use it for architecture. Has there been any development on that front?
You can work precise with blender if you know the workflow. Maybe have a look into the channel Tutor4U. He has a video which is really good to learn that. Addons like MeasureIt, Archipack and Archimesh also help.
Loop Tool, Bool Tool and Archipack can be found under Add-ons within Blender preferences. As for the others I found some on www.blendermarket.com/ and they cost money.
So I guess since there are "advanced Boolean tools" and "bool tool" in the video, they kinda do the same things (boolean operations), which one to use? Guessing "advanced" one since it says advanced? lol Didn't know there are auto retopology addons for Blender that would make life of a 3D designer soooo much easier after he finishes sculpting, did anyone actually tried using it on a sculpted characted and how are the results?
@@ChristinaMcKay TH-cam’s comment system is crap. Before posting replies, I sometimes make a copy in a scratch editor window. Then if my post disappears, I can copy and paste and try posting again. That usually works.
Different ones. he shows parts of the videos from the developers or other channels, so i guess it ranges from 2.80 to 2.82.I don't use the building tools or the three remeshers (no 15, 14, 11 and 7), the other addons work fine in 2.81 and 2.82, apart from retopoflow, which is a bit buggy atm, but they didn't release the final version yet, Jon is still working on it.
Thanks for sharing. But where is that comment from Christina McKay with the list what is free and where we can find the addons? That comment was briefly here a few hours ago, now it is gone again. I know she has it on her channel, but why do you block that comment? It would be much easier if that list was directly here. You should approve that comment and pin it so it is on top and everybody can find it. You could have easily integrated those links in the video description in the first place. Now a viewer took the time and made a list, posted it as comment and you block it? Not user/community friendly at all. In general I like your videos but that is a reason to unsubscribe for me.
Hi Frank, I saw your comment on my channel about this, which brings me back here. Please don't unsubscribe because of my comment not showing up. If it was briefly here and is now gone again, it might come back. Maybe they take the time and check for the links, i don't know. Maybe something went wrong in the system, YT sometimes is really mysterious. Anyway, thank you for your support, but please don't unsubscribe from this channel because of my comment. I'm pretty sure they didn't block it on purpose. Why would they?
@@Imperfectlink. It really looks like he blocked my comment on purpose. In the blog post he used my descriptions as well as the links I provided (for some addons I preferred to not give the Gumroad or github links but linked to the blenderartist thread). In general I don't mind, although it would have been polite to either ask first or unblock my comment.

Yea. Some reason for me it just doesn’t work it fails EVERY SINGLE TIME.. my payment sure didn’t fail tho
Oh crap, I didn't know that! I'm gonna get it now and not worry about going into ZBrush just to use Zremesher!
@@psychoboitrip3125, oh double crap...have you tried to do it in ZBrush and is there a difference?
Now I'm scared...!
jeffrey spinner I’m not going into zbrush i just gave up at that point
@@psychoboitrip3125, I've never had Zremesher fail and I've retopologized too realistic stylized beards!

Thanks. Agree, great addons, personally I would like to add Speedflow to this list, which I found very useful.
thank you for sharing.
Speedflow should definitely be on that list. It easily replace HardOps and BoxCutter and to me it works much better. Didn't try MeshMachine yet.
Awesome stuff, as always. Thanks!
You are welcome.
this video saved my life xD i love modeling now IM REALLLY LOVE MODELING. this is sooo helpful. thanks alot mister.
I forgot that I have some of the add-ons. Thanks for reminding me.
Kit-ops - great add-on made by Chipp Waltera. Its a must.
ur voice is super the way of ur explaination is awesom`e
Thank you
Шикарная подборка! Спасибо!
Flexi beizier tool......is pretty cool..... You can add that too
thanks
Missing in this list is the best auto retopologizer out there, Quad Remesher.
fluent addon is good
thank you for sharing.
Good please keep updating us and Inspire all the artists and motivated us see u love u
thank you

Thanks Kermit

we will do that it's just a matter of when.

You sound like Kermit teaching me cool things to use in blender
Lol
Oddly True.
Now i can't unsee this
I can't unhear it anymore
I love "Fluent"
There is also x-muscle system 2.8 and Auto rig Pro.
doors, windows, rails and doors
thanks !!
Mesh Machine hasn't been updated to work outside of Blender Beta from May 2019. Almost a full year.
Don't think so.
Some of them are doing the similar work, like the "advanced Boolean tools"
& "Bool Tool", "instant meshes remesh" & "DynRemesher" , why not pick the better one to introduce?
could you do a video with the best free addon's please?
some of these i cant find in preferences under addons mira machine tools and others

Can you explain why you think that ?
@@PatriceFERLET It is a common opinion of many.
Blender benefits include:
1. Free (best advantage) 2. Lightness 3. More active add-ons

There's probably an Add-on for that.

I like HardOps, but I really hate that every new version requires full uninstall and even clearing preferences.
is there a free hardops modeling add on
Do the add ones cost a lot
R all these addon free

I can't seen to get building tool to install
Box cutter link to download?
Where I can get the plugin number 6 - modeling cloth?
In the pinned comment he links to one of my videos and under that video I have the linklist for the addons in a comment.
pivot transform isn't free, thought this was a free list
ok but how come you did not say where to get the addons from like the websites??

Yep, i give up.
are these addons free or paid??
