I saw the topology of gta san andreas once. It looked absolutely horrendous.
Amazing.
I feel informed, overwhelmed and hopeless. Can’t wait to wake up and keep going. Glad I found you!
Best topology overview I've seen!👍👍
Thanks Cody! 😎
Woah - was literally asking Google all the questions from the intro just yesterday. Great video mate once again mate, thanks!
That’s awesome! Will definitely do more long form retopo videos in the future
The clarity in the way you deliver information is so helpful, especially with the “Topoly Triangle” diagram that you made ! It brings logic to a subject that I found quite difficult regarding 3D so thank you ✨
I reeeally wish I found this video earlier! Super helpful, Thank you!
Dude, you’re awesome. I just found your videos a few days ago and they are amazing. Thanks
I've heard all these terms in random places, and seen several videos about 'how to' over the past couple years. This video, thank you for presenting them all in context of each other, which approach for which use case, and going over the 'why' of them. With context it makes so much more sense.
This is the best introduction to topology on TH-cam. Thank you for sharing your knowledge on this complex subject.
Was trying to find a few good video to explain what good topology is to someone and managed to find this, very excellent explaination. Great channel and quality. Thanks.
i love you man, thanks for all this amazing content!
this is a damn good video, could have used this earlier then i started my 3d journy :O thanks man! keep creatin!
Great video quality and it's very informative aswell
Well done!
Thanks so much for this video! So great and easy to understand
I am a 3D Character Artist and this is as clean of an overview as it gets. Would have loved to have had this when I was learning xD
I've been having such a hard time optimizing my blender work (granted, I also must admit I've been forcing myself to improve with only 1 week in) but understanding topology has made myself see my work or the videos I've used as refence with new meanings and better conections.
Great video. Very useful information.
Very informative, thanks!
Really helpful, thanks a lot!
It was really helpful, cheers
3D Coat has another awesome Retopo toolset that feels very artistic. You can also very robustly and iteratively UV alongside your retopo process, with a very neat, stretch free inhouse UV unwrap algorithm for organics.
9:43 I like it, I hope we don't have to do the topology by hand in the future, it's so time consuming.
Excellent 👌
im looking to become a game artist and im just starting out, so this was super helpful, thanks!
very good video and very entertaining and interesting. I'll suscribe :D
Would be nice to see a decent Topogun face retopology workflow
definitely could do that!
lol the intro had me busting up
Please do a video on how you did that final hair!!!
5:04 What is this?
It's perfect. My Masterpiece.
IT'S A MILLION TRIS!!! 🤣🤣🤣
😂 Art Director in shambles
Hahaha I had to laugh so hard at this bit x'D
do you have a whole process or explanation about how to make 3d character for videogames? I mean, what´s first? 3d sculpt, then retopo, then maps or what?
First video that really lays everything out. So many others just prattle on and on about poles and edge loops without much context and it makes my brain angry.
Hi, Thank you for the video.
If you could share the progress of retopology of a fair complex character (with armors and stuff) in topogun, that would be really helpful.
Speaking of armors, when armors are on top of each other, should you merge them and retopo them as one model? or it's better to be seperate and retopo the whole thing and then delete the parts that are not seen?
👍
Shall you explain about Xgen in maya
Could I see you doing a retopology game ready for a character please ? I know how to do a basic retopology but they're.... Basics. Like I don't know how to capture the folds of a pants perfectly, how to mix the human and the cloth so that during the animation one don't go above the other or, so the animations for the arms muscles works great, when or how to think triangles and mostly that f****** ear.... Please ;-;
What about a movie model ?
I wouldn't define topology as a 'surface'. Surface is continuous and has no vertex or edges. I'd define it as rings bridged together
3dcoat retopo is really good along with uv workflow. Would love to see how you would incorporate that workflow
I agree, 3dcoat is such a great program. Could definitely take a closer look at the retopo tools
@@hartgameart Thanks man. Im enjoying the content. Think you can put a fun video to the 3dcoat workflow.
Question tho. Did crowfall ever come out? I was following the early development and animation way back when
@@solrax6026 Yeah it came out last year. Had a decent launch but died pretty quick unfortunately. It got picked up by a new company who has a lot of enthusiasm for rebuilding it but I decided it was time to move on. Excited to see what they do with it!
@@hartgameart well I hope it does well. Really loved the art with it all including some early animation. It definitely had a guildwars 2 feel. Ha I remember I did technical support for that game back in the day.
Again like you video takes. Nice approach to certain concepts
What does triangle shape topology called sir? I tried spent a lot of time search on TH-cam, and all I get just quad based topology tutorial. I'm completely exhausted
We can use Tri (angel) for Rigging?
Absolutely! Tris help to manage your polycount
which app?
You have an amazing 3DCoat hand-painting video, but you don't mention the fact that 3DCoat basically has the best retopo tools on the market?
I agree they are very good. I should have added it!
no audio at 6:40 ?
5:03 ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!! xddddd
The Best Game Ever...Tomb Rider !!!
I worked for a terrible indie studio for a time 7 years ago as their rigger and animator. And no matter how many times I tried to explain the things said in this video, no one, not even the director would listen to me. Quitting that shit show is still one of my proudest moments to date.
ooph such a lame situation. I think everyone has a studio or two in their career where the environment is so toxic that there is no room for learning or growth. Glad you were able to move on to new pastures
what you mean "retop" ? just put that bad boy through zremesher, combined with mixamo for the rig and call it a day!!
😂 that’s for the advanced lesson
This presentation is missing the key to understanding topology, which is how local curvature determines proper mesh layout. Absent specific animation requirements, and unless we are on a perfect sphere ( ex: eyeball ), or on a flat plane, at each point on _any_ curved surface ( ex: your arm ), the direction of least curvature is ALWAYS - mathematically - _perpendicular_ to the direction of greatest curvature! So when in doubt, ask yourself, at each point on a curved surface, what is the direction of greatest curvature, from which you can infer the direction of least curvature, and then you can determine how your spans, or edge loops, should go. Having your quad edges follow the lines of greatest and least curvature is the best way for the model to be efficient and light properly, particularly when low-res ( specular highlights naturally following, and stretching along, lines of curvature ). The rest is optimization, as well as accounting for curvature density ( = high-frequency important "detail", with high rates of local curvature = small radii of curvature ), in the base mesh , in preparation for subdivision. Determining directions of local curvature is how automated retopology tools work.
Note: One trick, to help in the process - if you have a physical model to work from - is to walk around it with a spotlight, which will reveal directions of greatest and least curvature, at each point, as the specular highlight travels and stretches along the surface. Applying a reflective coat of paint or oil, to the model, helps. The direction specular highlights stretch ( i.e. the direction of least curvature ), *in a particular area,* as one moves the spotlight around, is an attribute of the surface, caused by curvature, not the position of the light, nor of the orientation of the surface in space. That is why good topology, for a given mesh density, rationally converges toward a single solution.
alright chatgpt
@@hartgameart What do you mean? I am 100% human. ☺ Sign of the times, I guess. It took me _years_ to figure that one out, re. curvature; I only stumbled on it when I started programming a tool to retopologize meshes ( TINs ), and learned the math ( vector calc ). I have seen a lot of bad meshes, and this insight makes laying down tolopogy, manually, much easier. It's kind of the key, really. ...Thanks for the snide remark, though. Clearly, _not_ chatgpt!
