  • A short & pretty simple tutorial on how I get my sims from the game and into Blender to create a render. Hopefully helpful for someone out there! 👇

    ✨ INFO ✨
    Hi, I'm Dale! 👋 I have been creating renders for the Sims 4 for over a year now, and I still have people asking me how I do it because Blender is so "confusing" and "complicated" and I just really, honestly, don't think it is! I've put together a short and simple tutorial, a basic beginners guide essentially, to my work flow. I'm hoping it helps calm some nerves and showcases how easy it is to use, and that we will have an army of sims render-er-ers in no time!!! 🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜
    I would love to create a more advanced tutorial. If you would like to see that, please let me know with a comment below! I would also love to see any renders and creations you make, so please feel free to tag me in them on Twitter / draufilm ❤️
    Also, if you would like to commission me to make a render for you or you just would like to buy me a coffee as a thanks, feel free 👉👉👉 ko-fi.com/drau... (!!!)
    ✨ DISCLAIMER ✨
    I am not a professional. What I say isn't gospel, it's just how I do things! & yes, even though I'm a voice actor I'm still super nervous recording my very first tutorial, so if I make any mistakes or I mumble I'm sorry... I can only improve! ALSO I know that's not how you pronounce passepartout, I'm just a dumb english... 😂

    Well, I’ve never done this before. But I’m diving into sim content creation because I now have a great computer and I’ve been obsessed with the game since I was 10. (20 years of sims for me 😅) need to make something of it I think!

    I would definitely love to see a more in-depth tutorial, particularly with regards to importing animations into Blender. I'd also love to see workflow recommendations-- how to keep the tedium of bringing in so many different animations for projects like yours and keeping them organized to a minimum. :p

    Thank you so much for this detailed tutorial! I'm considering trying Sims 4 + Blender for some of my machinimas, and there's so much to learn from zero. Your video is the clearest I've seen so far on the topic.

    I had stumbled across your Casting Call and then this popped up on YoutTube, which I am very grateful for because i have been searching long and hard to find a Blender Render Tutorial that was helpful. I take that as that the universe wanted me to subscribe haha. Nonetheless I love your content and can't wait to see what you produce in the future

    This is a fantastic tutorial! I just have one question... how did you turn off the visible bones at approx. 5:30 into the video? This is after you finish up the posing.

    • @draufilm
      @draufilm  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you! Press 'H' after selecting the bone in 'Object Mode' to hide them, and then 'Alt + H' to unhide. Hope this helps!

    how do you import animations from sims 4 to blender? sims 4 studio doesn't seem to be compatible with the new version on blender.

    • @draufilm
      @draufilm  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You can export animations using Sims 4 Studio, create an empty Animation clip and on export select "EA Clip" with the correct armature selected. Also, I've updated the link to the latest version of Sims 4 Ripper in the description! (sims4studio.com/thread/34354/ts4-sim-ripper)

      @@Aksunen I'm not able to replicate this, unfortunately. I did have a similar issue a long time ago where instead of exporting a single mesh + textures, I was exporting them separately and that caused some rigging issues. But that's not the case for me now, so I have no idea I'm afraid.

    • @draufilm
      @draufilm  ปีที่แล้ว

      Maybe it will work for you? Underneath "Save As" make sure that it says "Single mesh and texture" instead of "All separate meshes, one texture" - and of course always use DAE.
